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 would like to point out that i did offer a refund without still seeing evidence of the bearded is in fact dead. I would also be more then willing to post tons of pics of the healthy dragons here at the facility, to calm any "contagious" talks.
Really dont know what else to do, you have now refused the refund and im trying like heck to work with you here, even though (in your words) he arrived and was beautiful

Andie, please post proof that the beardie is dead. I'm sure you thought it important enough to take a quick photo, sad as it may have been for you.

If the animal died a day after arrival, taking it to a vet would have been incredibly unlikely to help. I've taken many reptiles to vets before they were very ill and it is still hit or miss. If it's a bacterial infection and you're willing to give it meds while waiting on the culture to come back, odds are they can fix it, but it's viral I doubt they are going to be any help.

Having said that it's always important to report any issues as soon as they are noticed and a deceased animal virtually always requires a photo. Trouble is once you get past a few hours the seller cannot be sure what happened so it gets murky quick

You are building a conclusion on speculation. You do know know at all that the animal was sent ill and in fact you reported in writing that it looked beautiful. Then you skillfully garnered comments from people who never actually saw the animal to try to force readers to a conclusion that the seller did something amiss when there is no evidence of that at all.
Again, you have presented no evidence that the animal was shipped sick. You have not provided a photo of the dead animal.
It could well have been a husbandry issue, something in your enclosure.
I am sorry you lost your dragon and it was a very pretty one. But I don't think you have made a case that it was the seller's fault and I think it was flat irresponsible to claim that the critter had an infectious disease when not only did no veterinary professional see it, but those who you claim came up with a diagnosis never saw it either.

Andie, your two statements seem to be in direct conflict.

The OP did state that the animal was "struggling to breath" before the quote you referenced.

In my opinion, the seller sold a sick animal. Just sayin'.

And for what it's worth, nobody here would, or should, put up with anything but a smooth transaction for your money. Not in this day n age. If you screw up one out of a hundred times, own it. If you screw up ten out of a hundred times, you're dead to me.

The seller should be given proof the animal is dead. Pic's worth a thousand words.
