I actually was selling a rack here & on Craigslist very recently & he responded. He seemed interested but I kind of was turn off by the delaying to meet, not contacting me through fauna when he had an account, & information with the iphone he used. I like to get as much info before meeting anyone so I usually do a little research online. It's not a huge deal & can probably be explained but when I looked up the number it came up Anthony Pappas not a Kate Ellis. I was able to see his profile on facebook & where he works, etc. It seemed like I had a friend who worked with him at one time from his photo's. I'm guessing I lucked out by not dealing with him. Here is the e-mails we sent back & forth. I blocked out the numbers because I'm not sure of the policy in the BOI but I hope this helps in someway. Feel free to PM me if needed.

Hey do you still have rack?

Me To Kate Ellis Me, Sep 30
Yes - I still have it.
The people interested so far wanted me to hold until they were sure that there female's were gravid or couldn't make it to the show & wanted me to ship it which I really rather not do. I am able to meet up if local, I live in Pottstown & work in King of Prussia if your interested. If you have any questions just let me know.
Kate Ellis To Me, Sep 30
Great I'm not to far from you.. Are you interested in any trades at all? If not whats the bottom line price? And when can you meet?
Me To Kate Ellis, Sep 30
I wasn't really looking for any trades & I'm pretty firm on the price just because it's new, never been used or touched by a snake but your free to offer a trade if you think I would be interested, I'm a boa guy if that helps. I work at night so I can probably meet today if you want at some point, just let me know what general area. I should be home around 8:00am, let me know what you had in mind or if you have any questions, need additional photos, or whatever. Also are you have an account on faunaclassifieds or iherp? Thanks, Chris
Kate Ellis To Me, Sep 30

I can also meet today thanks
Kate Ellis To Me, Sep 30
What thermostat does it have? I'm def highly interested
Me To Kate Ellis Me, Sep 30
Doesn't come with a thermostat. It comes exactly like ordered with bins & heat tape already installed, except the bowl I bought which you can have. I would use a herpstat with it though. If your interested give me a general idea of where your located or would want to meet.
Kate Ellis To Me, Sep 30
Would you wanna sell herpstat seperate also? I'm located in Lancaster are but can drive to meet
Were you interested in any trades at all? Or partial trade and cash?
Sent from my iPhone
Me To Kate Ellis Me, Sep 30
Your actually a decent ride away. I'm actually going to get some sleep for work tonight but think it over. I rather stay away from the trades & I don't have an extra thermostats to sell but you won't have any trouble finding one. If you have the money & want to meet up tomorrow let send me an email later tonight letting me know when & what time. Also if possible send me a phone number. Thanks

How much for the rack with the thermostat?
Me To Kate Ellis, Oct 6
We spoke before about this. I even called you at the number you gave me (732720xxxx) & left a message, & then gave you my number which you never called back. I dont have a thermostat to sell with it. I'm pretty sure I already have this sold already to a local guy anyway but if he doesn't show tomorrow or something falls through i will email you & let you know so we can again try to work it out again if your really interested.
Kate Ellis To Me, Oct 6
