Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

It happens. We deal with it like adults, most of the time. Sometimes not, ergo this thread. We are not entitled to 'compensation' every time something doesn't go exactly according to plan.
And I only referenced the "gas money" aspect, because that's how she justified asking for it... if $8 puts you out, you have no business taking care of animals. $8 in the big scheme of things is a blip on the radar, and is just "one of those things"... like this situation.

Well you definitely show your age with this post, but unfortunately, not your awesome IQ. The loss being $8 is irrelevant. It's the attitude displayed in your post. "Oh well, there was a loss incurred" isn't the response I'd appreciate from a seller, regarless of the amount.
And this isn't to say that the OP was or wasn't justified in making this thread, but the attitude you have is piss poor, and I wouldn't do business with someone who has no respect for the person on the other end of the deal.

I'd gladly turn the tables and say the same thing the other way around. I wouldn't want to do business with a customer that felt like the world owed them for every single expense they incurred simply by living life.
There's a line between offering compensation to a customer because of your own fault in causing them an unexpected and burdensome expense....and between placating every whining mewl of someone who lost money due to their own mishandling of a situation. And it's not even a particularly fine line. The difference here is clear.

If this purchase went down like this, then I could see why Chris would have been upset. Judging by the posts here from the OP, and the way that pointless points are attempted to be driven home, I would guess this isn't too far off.

I still would like to know if the OP will be buying from these "horrible", "terrible", "snooty" people, or if they have found another rodent supplier.
