Barbie - Dubia Fraud-BUYER BEWARE

Are text or something missing it doesn't show where she agreed on the 15-20k nymphs just that she had written 10k
Where is the whole deal confirmed all the totals she's said she was only sending 13000 nymphs 1500 females/200 males 2500 med
Can you post the Paypal invoice Barbie said it was all listed on that

A big problem already is she's saying 10k+ your saying 15k+

1500 females $750 $.50
2500 med $250 $.10
That's not wholesale prices
15000 babies $300 is $20 per 1000
that's less then wholesale
Then shipping+males total $1350

Based on the following quote, she claims to have already weighed out 13K nymphs, with her helper being responsible for counting out some unspecified remainder. The context clues appear to support what the OP is saying.


Is it just me, or are the two following statements very contradictory? First, she claims to have counted out the vast majority of them herself. However, the text appears to be making the case for this mystery helper having been responsible for counting them. If Barb had indeed counted nearly all of them herself, as she claims, it'd make no sense to bring the helper into it, considering that the helper was supposedly only responsible for a small percentage of nymphs. Things just don't seem to add up on her end.

Would you mind clarifying this post?

No nothing is missing. Like I said, this text is from the start and is about 3/4. There are some more that I will have to upload. Yes I have the written agreement sent by Barbie. We also talked on the phone outside of the text to confirm the deal, and when she wrote, 10,000 instead of 15,000 + I texted right away as you can see. That is what I am referring to in the text were I said I was sitting down to pay and was concerned she wrote 10,000 even though we had discussed 15+ and for the money, closer to 20,000. I said we would have to figure something out if they came up short, as she did not have a firm number on the babies, whether it was less than 15 or closer to 20,000. She said that was okay in her next text. so I went ahead and paid. She than reconfirmed that number in the 3rd set of texts, when she said she was adding additional breeders to make up for the shortage of nymphs, as she thought her numbers were closer to 15,000 not 20,000. So that is how we get from 10,000 in the written agreement, to 15 - 20000 as was discussed on the phone, and confirmed in text by me and by her.

The $ might not add up to your calculations, but that is what was agreed upon, as this was a large transaction and discounting was giving accordingly.

Those were pricing base on post #14 by the op
I'm trying to understand the op responded to an ad for $.5 females
And paid a good price for females,males,and med but then under wholesale for small nymphs
One of the disagreements seems to be the count in the nymphs
Barbie says 10k was written op says 15k

Ok it was just confusing because in the text it was discuses but left open and she's claiming in page one that it was only 10 but sent 13k
Either way 3000 is not 10k or even 13 or 15k

I would say there are three big disagreements. 1) I was supposed to get 1850 females, received around 800 alive, about 150 dead. Far from 1850. 2) I was supposed to get 2500 mediums and received 600. 3) I was supposed to get 15+, closer to 20,000 baby nymphs and I got 3000. That about sums it up. I attached a screen shot of a PM within Fauna. Once I received this, the next text I sent, questioned the 10,000 babies and referred to our phone conversation about 15+ and closer to 20,000. She agreed to that, and then referenced the 15,000 number in the 3rd set of texts.

ahh yes now that part makes a little more sense
she added in extra to make it closer to the 15mark
so your short about 1000 females from death/not sent $500
1900 med $190
and 10000 nymphs you got 3k and the extra was to make up the 2k difference from 15k
about $200 so the refund your asking is around $800?
