    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy KolorBurst Cham - Joshua Coppens - Will not honor 7 day health guarantee

They all have point's, honestly that Cham should have never have been sent but a healthy one instead. So yes she is owed a refund. And she has every right to come to this forum and post because this is what the BOI is intended for. For buyers and sellers to give feedback on good reputable people and those who are not. Right now its becoming easy to see which one you are falling under. A refund might save a little bit of your reputation, but the way you are treating this, its going to be hard.

Selling animal's your animals should be 100% healthy, you obviously didn't give her one and in return, she has to spend time taking extra care of it to bring it back up to good health and she took it to the vets. It's lucky she didn't bring up a good amount of vet bills. I am hoping it lives but this should have never been a problem to begin with, that sick animal should have never been sold and sent in the mail. I think to everyone, it is obvious a refund should be given back for the female.
 
Refund me for the female. I would like nothing more to get this resolved.

We both agree she is and has been in poor health

We can then close the paypal dispute and move on
 
We're not nosy people, we're being asked to weigh in on the legitimacy of Dez's claim, and we overwhelmingly agree that you are trying to wiggle out of refunding her what she is rightfully due. If she didn't have a case we would be more than willing to lean in your favor but this isn't what's going on.

Since I know you think you are right..how about I post an inquiry on fauna BOA and let the community tell me what they think should be done.

You can post whatever you want on fauna that is up to you.

She gave you a warning on SATURDAY, the 10th of November, about starting a BOI thread - 2 days later. To which you gave her the go-ahead.

She didn't start this thread for a WEEK after the end of your 7 day guarantee, on the 15th of December.

She has given you PLENTY of time to step up and give her the refund. You had a week where she didn't start a BOI thread and hadn't stirred anything up where she should have gotten the refund she was promised. This wasn't a surprise. So to say that she doesn't get it now because she started this thread is petty and ridiculous. You had an extra WEEK to sort this out.
 
Shoot, nevermind. Ignore most of my second message, I misread the dates at the beginning of the sale. I read the 2nd by accident and not the 8th. I apologize for that.
 
I didn't flip about anything, ive told her since day one i believed the one was sick and i would refund her money i just wanted to see if she would pull through to ship her back to me so i could try and bring her back to health but from the pics she is beyond where she would survive the trip. I do take responsibility that she was sick after she received her. I would never intentionally send a sick animal to someone and should have looked her over better before i shipped her. My chams are feed very well with well feed gutloaded feeders. I would never intentionally send a unhealthy animal. My policy is not in place so i don't have to take responsibility for the health of my animals but to prevent unnecessary returns of animals that became sick due to the buyers inexperience. I cant have these animals flying back and forth across the country. I understand when it comes to this one female that is not the case, something is wrong with her but it is not due to mine or the buyers neglect. Sometimes animals just get sick.
 
Make the refund now, and then your buyer can close the dispute.
 
Joshua it takes one minute to send a payment. I've just watched an entire episode of the Waltons and it isn't done yet. You said you would do it now come on.

Way to try to slime your way out of any blame. So the cham was only sick "after she received her"? It's much more likely that it was sick before, during, and after shipping. Unless your eyes are as conveniently out of focus as your camera was, there's basically no chance that you didn't notice that the poor thing was in horrible shape, before you shipped it. Which means that, yes, you very likely did knowingly ship a sick animal.

Actually, avoiding responsibility is exactly what you're doing. Not only did you send her a sick animal, but I've just stumbled across a post on another forum where you openly admit to sickness in your young chameleons.

Assuming that THIS is the same Joshua Coppens, it'd appear that his criminal impulses haven't diminished one bit. He's still willing to use any means necessary to come out on top.

In the very likely event that he doesn't choose to willingly issue a refund, I'd make the following link available to the PayPal resolution team. As well as the posts in this thread where he acknowledged that a refund was deserved, but stated that it wouldn't be made due to this thread being posted about him. It may mean something to them. It certainly looks like he knew he was selling potentially sick animals, and was simply trying to dump them on unsuspecting customers.
