Hi here's the payment we agreed on for the two pairs of snakes plus shipping. Also if you could please ship these animals on a Monday I would really appreciate it. I'm actually out of town for work right now but my roommate's home and his days off of work are Mondays and Tuesdays. So shipping them on a Monday would insure there'll be someone home to receive them. Thanks

Here is once again another email showing Dan as the only other party invovolved. That is until he chose to use a third party which has nothing to do with me since all this time he’s claiming to have these animals

Here’s the email where Dan apologizes for the animals I received. This was after I had already spoken to him on the phone about the situation and he also apologized profusely. It was also at this time time he informs me he introduced a third party into the transaction

Jon, I am VERY SORRY that happened. My shipper is in Texas and I will give you 4 new specimens in perfect shape.
Dan
Here is the email where Dan specifically instructs me to not to ship the animals back after I explained the situation. I would be willing to still send him back his animal but I’m holding on to them as evidence just in case.

Jon, well tell him to hold them to not waste money shipping them back to the fellow in texas and we will send 4 new blue ones to you and sorry about this. I told the fellow to get ahold of LB and get them shipped back and he is giving me debate over what he thinks was good to ship so we will just ship new stuff out when the new shipment arrives in a couple of weeks and make sure they are blue.

Hi Dan, I spoke with LB a little while ago. He said you'd tried to contact him but weren't able to. unfortunately he works from pretty early in the morning to late in the evening. So I gave him your number so he can have a way of contacting you back, or you can try to call him again if you like but he doesn't get home until around 8 pm. This is also going to affect his ability to ship those animals back since Fedex closes @ 9 and the nearest fedex center is in another town. So the soonest he'll be able to send those guys back will be on Monday which is his day off.
He also told me that the snake with the lesion died just a little while ago. also the other two snakes, although they're still alive the fungus spots have increased considerably in size probably related to transit stress. As far as I've read from the little that's out there about captive husbandry on file snakes this fungus is pretty difficult to treat, almost impossible to cure and is usually deadly so I don't know how well the last two are going to hold out considering the infection has progressed so quickly in just a day.
Lastly, when you send me some new animals, If you could please send me those with the blue striping I would greatly appreciated. Out of the ones I got two had the blue stripes and the other two were completely black. I don't mind if I have to wait for the new batch to arrive if that's what it'll take to get those types of animals. I just really want to work with that type of genetics.Thanks

What I posted on my thread (http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=127840) is not only the honest truth but is pretty much exactly what my written conplaint said to the FBI nowhere on my thread or on any of my complaints to the agencies did I claim to never have received ANY animals
Would you care defend your libelous accusations by prviding a rebuttal showing your evidence Dan?
I also have a very mousy voicemail where Dan explains he has given me an extra $25 in order to appease me and once again begs me to drop my complaints. Why would somebody who has done nothing wrong have the FBI show up their door and be so worried?
I have also attached some photos showing the condition of the animals.
