Bad Guy Chad Horne AKA www.Arabesqueboa.com and www.thetortoisefarm.com

But, Oliver.....to start a Bad Guy thread (not an info thread) without even hearing from him, not to mention disputing the charge and calling your CC company?

What if they show up tomorrow?
 
I have only filed a claim on PayPal. And yes you are right an info thread could of been the start. And why would any seller just send out reptiles without giving the tracking number to their buyer. And if they were or were not sent out I think a simple email could of been made.
 
hopefully he has more than one 20 lot..I sent him a USPS MO last week for the 20 lot he advertised here. Odd that he took paypal from you and wanted MO or cashiers from me.Later he needed an additional 82.00 for shipping via paypal, havnt heard from him since. Hopefully he is just busy shipping tortoises right now!!
My wife just learned last week she's pregnant (YAY) and 10 of these are her mothers day gift. I really hope I dont get burned here.
 
thx... figured it would be nice to have some to raise up with our kiddo, a yard full of sulcattas to ride and play with gotta be fun , also the price at 28.00ea shipped thats awesome. I have a friend who's taking the other 10..seems like tomorrow morning will be a very anxious day for all of us!! Hopefully we'll all have some little munchers to soak and feed soon..Chad seem's like a nice guy (via email lol) maybe he's just a bit behind at the moment.

I PayPal'd him last tues and the only return email Ive gotten stated he had a hectic work schedule and was going out of town and would ship out today. I've sent him an email earlier today to confirm shipping and got no response. I just sent him another email a moment ago and hope he's just really busy but we'll find out here shortly.
 
well lets just hope all is well as he said he was going away for the weekend maybe something happened to him
im sure things still have to unfold a bit and hear from the seller but the sale of 3x 20 lots
hope he has all 60 turtles
it seems a little fishy but still to early to jump to a conclusion i would of giving him a day or 2 to respond before posting and filing a claim with paypal
 
well his name is tortoise farm so its very possible
im sure we will know alot more in the next day or 2
really hope this doesnt turn out bad
 
What's fishy about all this is that he also deleted the thread for the 20 lot sulcattas. Why not mark it as sold instead of deleting it......

Honestly, I also delete all my for sale ads after completed. I noticed he removed it a couple of days later but figured it was because he sold had sold them to me.
