Genefreak339 / Michael Harshbarger

I was not aware of this thread when i purchased from genefreak until after I had sent payment for a female superpastel baby. He advertised the baby as 70g and healthy. Upon sending the snake he changed the original post removing any mention of weight. When i recieved the female she weighed a messley 35!!!! Yes 35!! Gram, and was infested with mites. I have no proof of my statments, but just wanted to say he definately is misrepresenting snakes based on my history.

In his defense when i complained he offered me a full refund, and apologized. Just thought this should be said here in this thread.

I kept the snake, am happy with her, bui am unsure of whether to trust the statments made by the sller of her genetics.

Do you at least have pictures of the snake?

You have no email exchange between the two of you?

Sorry about typos in last post, im on my phone. I have pictures, but not of mites/her weight, pictures got deleted when i had to repair some things on the phone.

Sorry for dbl post, not seeing an edit button.

Also have emails we exchanged.

Frederick - super pastels are really easy to identify. When you post a pic, you'll get an answer either way.

It is not "just" two bad deals, but the way at least my deal went sour. I have posted what happened enough times, but to get to the point in the deal where I was about to send money, after an hour or so on the phone, only to receive a "by the way, one is kinked" email, and when I asked which one was kinked, to receive another email stating both had issues, is unacceptable. I find in impossible to believe that during the entire hour or so on the phone, he had no idea that the snakes were flawed. Either you knew, or you should have known.

Sorry i was not totaly clear, she was sold to me as 66 het axanthic, after seeing his issues i dont think shes even worth the effort to prove out. Most def visual super however.

Just to add another transaction to the fray- I just bought a young adult lesser girl from Michael. She looked okay and was a good price, so I took the risk. He was really quick to respond, transaction went smooth as silk and she's here now. I'll be quarantining her like I do everyone else but she doesn't seem to have any mites, kinks, or other issues.

Mary,
Make sure you sex "her" if you have not already. If memory serves me that was another problem a buyer had with a pewter they purchased.

Bones,

Yes, it's a girl. Or if by chance the hemipenes are eluding me, she's the biggest male I've got.
