I don't agree for one second with the way he does business, i simply pointed out that he was trying to find a resolution and if both parties would talk it over, this BOI could have been avoided..
we may never know all of the actual story here.. if no charges were supposed to be charged on his CC before he got there because he wanted to see and switch animals for a final total then the card shouldn t have been charged for that total..
did they actually do any work with his chosen animals ? removed and boxed up ? and even IF UG did waist time, that retsocking fee has no place here.. that's why a non-refundable deposit is better..
i understand both sides here...
OP has the right to change his mind, be it that he found a better deal, or just really couldn t make it !!
UG for (IF)taking the time to get his animals put asside and ready, then having the guy back out...imagin having to deal with a bunch of people like this all the time..
that's why a deposit for serious buyers is a good idea... you back out then you know what to expect..
I 've only been to 2 reptile shows in all the years in the hobby, and i must say that this post leaves me with a bad view on sellers i don't know.. to see sellers picking up a bunch of animals simply to have a nice table to show up with !!!
will they be honest and tell potential buyers:
I didn't breed them,
I didn't feed them,
I'm not sure about there health,
I just picked them up before the show to flip them for a quick $$$
to me that's no better then UG wanting bogus restocking fees
like others have said, no winners in this post, both of them look bad..
