Being shady and not disclosing genetical flaws on what your selling is wrong.

So if someone selling caramels dont disclose if this line kinks or not is ok in your eyes

I don't think you will be taken for your money ... not one bit. I would instantly refund any buyer that wanted to renege because they didn't do not one bit of research before purchasing an animal. The animal is probably better off elsewhere. This reeks of buyer remorse. Please show emails of how long you have been trying to contact him.

Well you are selling spider gene animals right now. I don't see anywhere in your ad where it says they are now or will at sometime wobble. Like I said slippery slope.

I wouldn't say you got screwed by Corsi Morphs until he doesn't ship the animal to you. As of right now all I can see is a bit of buyers remorse because you googled desert ball python after you won the auction. Just type Desert Ball python into google and on the first page there are link to forums with headings dealing with the infertility issue. Lesson learned, before you spend hundreds of dollars on an animal do your research.

While you may think you got "screwed" that really is a good deal on what you purchased. If he chose to let you out of your obligation that's one thing but in my opinion that's at his discretion.

Your first post mentioned emails. Please post those emails.

This is a tough one. On one hand you have sellers business ethics and morals. On the other, you have a buyer that probably could have read up and researched the desert bp's breeding issues prior to a bid, let along winning that auction. I see both sides pretty equally, but I tend to be tougher on sellers than buyers or possibly buyers, as they dont always think to do things like proper research and such. Sellers on the other, at least in my eyes, are held in a higher position of proper ethics and morals. For example, proper ethics would have told me to say something like " this is an open auction for a 400 gram desert yellowbelly ball python female (please note that high infertility rates are well known and proven in the desert genes)". Something along those lines, just as common ethics and courtesy to buyers that may not have done enough or proper research on the genes they are about to invest in

could you please just refund me my money for the snake, the weather is going to stay in the high 90's and 100's and I would rather not have her shipped with a cool pack. So if you could please just refund me I would appreciate it. Thank you

I think most are missing the point. The animal was purchased during an auction! An auction is typically much different then listing the animal for sale. Most animals on auctions are harder to sell items. Those that get involved bidding on a live animal during an auction should assume 100% responsibility. Items sold at auctions typically sell for well under fair market value.

Are breeders that wholesale animals to large scale buyers responsible for disclosing all posible traits of each mutation.

Those that sell whole clutches at a discounted price- Do they offer a guarantee if the animal never gets started and dies? Do they go into detail stating "It could be harmful to over-stress an unstarted baby ball python through standard overnight shipping, but if your willing to take the chance and then get it started yourself....I'll save you a few bucks!

Let's not go down any of these roads.

If you want 100% support from the breeder, then purchase from a listed add.

If you want a bargain price, bid during an auction, but common sence should tell someone to do their homework first!

This thread is ridiculous

those are the emails the rest are texts and voice messages
