I see all of the red flags in hindsight. Here is my correspondence with Johnny Fickes:

Hi,
Not interested in trading too much except for maybe caramel pinks or any other red ear morph. What did you have in mind for trade?
Thanks, Jason

Would you trade the pair and another female for this caramel res? I only have hatchlings though. Let me know. Thanks.

Hi Brian,
Yes I would be interested in the trade. The caramel looks great in the photo but I cannot see the scutes and tail at that angle.
Are the scutes perfect and the tail normal?
Thanks,
Jason

Oh yea sorry. I was just wanting to get a pic and rushed. But yes, has no curl or kinks and perfect scutes.

Hi Brian,
So the trade would be a perfect scute and tail caramel pink hatchling for three perfect scute and tail albino red ears (1 male + 2 females)? These are this year's hatchlings but are already of decent size (around 2" in carapace length).
Let me know if this works and I can pick out a trio and send photos of them to you later this evening (at work at the moment).
Thanks,
Jason

Yes exactly. A 1.2 group of Albinos for one caramel, with perfect tail and scutes. Also where are you located? Honestly, I don't mind shipping if I have to but have never shipped before doing a trade. Don't know if you have or havent either just was wondering how that would work. If we're close enough, I'm all for meeting in person but if need be for shipping, I wanted to know how that would take place. And yea that will work. No rush. I'll wait to hear back from you this evening. Thanks.

Hi Brian,
I hope these photos are ok. Not the best lighting but the best I can do at night.

Hey Jason, yes the pics were fine. I'm actually not very picky as long as the tails and scutes are both perfect. I will trust your judgement on picking out a nice group. They all look the same basically at that age anyway. I'd like some well started, good eaters though. That's what matters most to me is that they're feeding well. The caramel is feeding on frozen bloodworms and reptimi sticks with added calcium and Vitamins. Also I'm located in Maryland so we will definitely have to ship. Which I don't mind, I would just like to know how we go about making the trade? I'm guessing we would each just cover our own shipping cost? That way we can just make an even trade? Let me know what you think. Also let me know when you were thinking about shipping. I'm in no rush, and my wife is home everyday in the mornings so I can be ready whenever you'd like. Just let me know. Thanks again Jason.

Hi Brian,
Yes that sounds good. We can each pay the shipping for the trade.
I can ship out next week Monday - Wednesday. When is a good day for you to ship?
Thanks,
Jason

Ok. Great! Also, I meant to ask what you have them feeding on? And as far as shipping goes, I can ship out the same time as you if that works. Preferably next week Mon for Tues. But anyday should probably work. Just let me know if Monday will work and if not which day you'd prefer. Thanks again. We'll talk soon. Have a great weekend.

Hi Brian,
I can ship Monday or Tuesday as well. The turtles have been feeding on Mazuri and Zoomed aquatic turtle pellets. I'll be at work all week during the day so I will probably have you ship to my parents address so they can bring the box inside from the heat right when the driver delivers. I will see what day is best for them to be home all day (Tuesday or Wednesday) and hopefully yours and mine schedule will workout to ship the day before.
Thanks and have a great weekend as well,
Jason

Ok. That will work. Just let me know which day is best. I can ship anywhere you'd like also so no problem there. I'll ttys. Just let me know which day you'd like to ship. Thanks again.

Hi Brian,
Tuesday ship for Wednesday delivery seems to be best for me this week. Please let me know if that works for you (if you can ship the caramel pink out on Tuesday and if you will be home on Wednesday to accept the albino red ears.)
Thank you,
Jason

Hey Jason, would it be ok if we held off shipping until tomorrow for Thursday delivery? Sorry I thought I had cool packs but I don't have anymore. I'd rather not ship without one. Sorry for the late change up. I hope it doesn't change your mind. I just want to make sure it's shipped perfect so it can arrive just as it left. Just let me know if that will still work for you. Thanks. Sorry again, I could've swore I had one left. It's my mistake.

Hey Jason, just wanted to touch base with you this morning and make sure we are still a go for shipping out today. I'm good to go, just wanted to double check before packing him up and what not. Thanks again.
