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.

I pointed to the UCC, which says otherwise. Why not go take a look? Article 2, section 2 governs the sale of goods, breach, remedies, etc.

we all get our time wasted its incorporated into the price we sell the animals for
in this case it sucks the seller missed work but he could of schedule meeting times around his needs
and hard luck and bad things happen are always a case to case basis and in this case evidence was provided by the buyer
we as sellers sell things for a profit all of our costs have to be included in our bottom line
|
And one way a seller can incorporate the cost of having their time wasted into their selling price is to require a nonrefundable deposit to hold animals.

I agree with that, but the seller did not have TOS policy.

He can do that if he wants. Based on his handling of the situation...I would buy from him. He went over and beyond what was needed in an attempt to complete the transaction, so that the buyer would not be out anything.
I can find no fault in his handling of his business transaction.

Yes the seller should keep it. I just spent 7 weeks getting paid on a computer repair job because I foolishly agreed to be paid "next week" because the guy was a friend of a friend.
Buyer said he had some bad luck and would throw down another payment and didn't. Don't put money down to hold an animal if you cannot finish the deal.

Take it to PMs or the discussion forum, this is not the place to discuss and debate general practices.
This seems to be going round and round with people's opinions and the original parties not taking part any longer.

this is a very hard case with alot of variables and no matter how much any of us add in our information it comes down to the seller
he did go out of his way for the buyer (but as a seller i would for my buyers also)
and the buyer did have problems
he would not be wrong for keeping it
but me personally i couldnt keep it when the other snake was sold i would of refunded the same day

I know I'm in the minority on this one but I just wouldn't feel good about myself for keeping the money if I were the seller in this situation.
