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 think a new TOS will help. You might think about, as well as a nonrefundable deposit, having a predetermined boarding fee listed that you would charge if you had to hold a critter for reasons other than weather (for example) for over a certain period of time, a week, for example.

I am sorry that I did not leave enough information before.
I am a importer from HongKong. We need broker to take care of our shipment from the U.S to HongKong. And Mr. Gonzalez is our broker.
The date is has show on the screenshot but the Text massage screenshot is "Chinese" .
As Mr.Tom said he hold the snake for few months wait for our shipment.Thats totally lie because we contact him at Oct 1st.Our shipment is Oct 27th NOT Nov 27th.
I did change the shipment date once from Oct 26th delieve to Oct 25th
So. Mr.Tom has been try to refund for al month already.

Also to be clear, the buyer paid for the snakes but never did pay for shipping, even after telling you to ship on the 24th? And were the snakes to be shipped to an address in the US or overseas?
Do you have anything in your TOS about non-refundable deposits?

After I see that it went through and the buyer claims it, I will send the rest of the money back. My mistake for not having a better system in place to deal with all possible scenarios. If the purchaser changes the shipping date with little to no notice it would not usually be a problem. The buyer has now made it my problem since he no longer wants the snake he purchased and I do not have a good policy in place to address this situation.

You did not hold the snake for few months.
And the shipment date was change one day earlier from Oct 26th deliver to 25th deliver.
Maybe other people dont know who really happen.But you have been TRY to refund for a whole month already.
I hope I misundetstand you and I am always welcome when you making this right.
Thank you
Chan

You really don't need to repeat the very same post to each individual you need to address. Once is fine. Can you post screenshots of the parts of the conversation where shipping arrangements were made and then changed? There are definitely some pieces missing. Ideally, we'd like to see everything - preferably with visible timestamps.
Between your claims and the evidence you've presented, your story seems pretty consistent. While the seller has stated that you edited the information to your own benefit, it does seem noteworthy that he's ignored requests to provide anything that corroborates his own version of the story.

No need to do that. It's best to keep everything in the same place - this thread. Feel free to add anything here that you feel supports what you're saying. Not sure there's any such thing as too much proof. Especially when it seems that obvious details are somehow being missed.

I am not going to go back through all of the emails and texts. He contacted me repeatedly on multiple websites and facebook. Very confusing and endless string of hard to understand questions. I sent him partial payment after I had someone add money to my paypal account since payypal had frozen my account. I can send the screenshot from paypal, but at this point this all needs to come to an end. When he acknowledges that he has received money from me through paypal I will send the rest. He now has added that he moved the shipping date forward with little warning to a date I was not able to ship on. I was ready to ship on the original date that he requested. He did not ever check with me ahead of time to see of the original shipping date would work.

Chan has posted this after I asked him to acknowledge that he had received partial payment. He did not try to show that the money was in his account all day. I will forward the rest of the money to him. I doubt the next time he purchases an animal and changes the shipping date to one day window and then wants his money back he will be so lucky as to get a full refund. I had numerous sales for this animal that I did not make because I was holding it for him. I will post tomorrow when the final paypal payment has gone through, and then I will be done with this. Incredibly annoying start to finish.
