The biggest problem I see with this type of thread is that the op came here with an attitude and a less than stellar comprehension of the basics of English, a tiny bit of research would tell anybody THAT is a recipe for disaster here on the BOI.
It may have even been true that he did get a sick snake or the wrong one etc ( highly unlikely from what I have seen but....) , however with his tantrums and terrible literary skills he blew ANY credibility or even sympathy to his cause away very quickly.
Now I am not deliberately criticizing him for poor English as not everybody is fortunate to have had the best education in the world but the attitude shone through no matter how it was composed and that was the death knell.
At least it looks like the seller, who I feel for strongly here, did not actually lose any money as PayPal refunded op WITHOUT taking any money off the seller.
So if ops intent all along was to scam then congrats to him he got a free snake, whoopiedoo you are a star........
But at what cost........
