Beware of zactay24

I find this entire thread just......odd. Not the purpose behind the post, because the OP has done a good job of showing the guy selling the Boa to be dishonest at best and downright shady at worst. What I don't understand is the apparent hard-on that Serafim has for trying to berate the OP? Makes zero sense. The guy outed a liar.

Cheers to you, David. Which is why I have refuse to speak to him further about this matter.

After rereading zac's post something struck me as odd. He just said that his gf wasn't a snake person, but when I saw her post on the facebook classifieds the second time , I checked her profile to see who i would be dealing with if i did go through with a sale. She had pics of what I'm guessing are her snakes, since she is holding them and they are on her page. One was of the boa I saw her posting for sale. She still has the pic and I made a comparison pic of the one for sale and the one that was for sale a year ago. Mind you it has grown from the pic she has posted, but you can see the details in the tail are identical. So she is not a snake person who has snakes, knows how to take care of snakes, but can't take care of her man's snake while he's gone?

I also don't understand why they would say they didn't have the snake any more, but somehow here it is for sale again much later.

No idea, but the snake has never been posted at multuple sites at the same time. It was on Craigslist, then on Florida classifieds, now on here. Which is why to me it seems like a catfish.

I appreciate that you posted. Those who deal with this seller in the future would do well to consider your posts.

I would be too. Whether or not that was an unusually low price for the animal, the seller chose to advertise it for that price.

I agree.

To me, the sole question here was whether there was an actual agreement. The time of meeting was not specified, but when the seller later commented that 'the plan was for Saturday' it implied there was a plan. The seller's excuse that he did not sign a contract shows ignorance of the fact that a paper does not need to be signed (with some exceptions that do not apply here) for a contract to exist.

And it is our choice too, to discuss whether there was a deal, and to point out to others that people who break such agreements may not be the kind of people we would want to do business with.

Do you have an explanation of why it appears that this same animal is being sold by you in the Fauna classifieds right now?

If you were actually sorry, and the advertised animal on Fauna is indeed the animal the OP is talking about, you would have honored your agreement with him.

A time and place was specified. Palm Bay is a little over 2hrs away from me, so I told him I could be the there around 1, give or take a few minutes considering possible traffic.

I see the time that we agreed on was cut out of the original post of the texts. My apologies for any confusion.
