Ripped off by Lisa Apramian in San Diego

Probably a reason for that, anyone that was within 10' of her could likely smell the crazy/patchouli and it would gag them.

Maybe she doesn't want to deal with locals because she possibly doesn't even have the snakes she says she has, or those she produced? Over all I find that odd but it doesn't surprise me since she wasn't going to repay the guy above and said so herself until BOI came to light.

So glad that this worked out for everyone. The fact that the seller scolds the customer for requesting a refund after literal MONTHS of waiting with no response and wouldnt post conversations about informing the customer about anything is just horrendous. I've gotten better service from teenagers

Lisa, I rarely post on the BOI, although I read it regularly. You inspire me to post. Your mystical "I'm the victim, and I'm the goddess of snakes" is crap. YOU messed up. You left your customer hanging without communication or a plan for 3 months. It doesn't matter if you didn't "intend" to rip him off, and it doesn't matter if you have the cleanest snake colony on the planet, you messed up and you are trying to avoid taking any responsibility for your actions.
The more you come on here and cry victim and how innocent and pure you are, instead of admitting that you were in the wrong, and apologize and make it right, the more shady you look. I truly hope that anyone considering giving you money in any one of your various endeavors finds this thread and runs the other way.
Taking responsibility when we mess up is the right thing to do. You are not a victim here.

Really, I urge everyone curious and shocked by this behavior to google borderline personality disorder. Seeing some classic indicators here and it explains a lot. They are ALWAYS the victim.

I was thinking narcissistic personality disorder, or borderline myself. Her behavior and responses seemed really blown out of proportion, given the reasonable questions being asked. Or, maybe she's just an a*****e in general.

Robert, you were supposed to have funds released to you today. Did the refund go through? Again, I'm sorry that I didn't say anything earlier; maybe you wouldn't have attempted a purchase from her.

Hi, Yes. PayPal has notified me that the funds did clear today.

Thank you all again for your support. I really appreciate it. If it were not for this board I never would have seen my money again.

Thank you.

robert

That is great news, Robert!
Glad that the funds have cleared and you got your money back.

You had to be sure I knew you were a "professional", a psychologist. How about acting like one, and return the money?

Kathy

You mean Psy-chologist lol that part threw up red flags for me.
