Ed, Jordan has been a great guy and helped me out on several occasions. If you take a step back, and look at this whole scenario, there is probably fault to go around. The fact that Tibor is saying 400 days this and 400 days that, and in the same sentence says he lives up in Perris 20 minutes away just does not add up. I think Jordan has admitted some fault in the whole thing, but if Tibor really, REALLY wanted his stuff, he could have made a phone call and jumped in his car. Jordan does live in a gated community, but all he has to do is phone ahead...
It looks like Tibor wanted Jordan to do all the work and just hand over money. His stuff did not sell, he agreed to some trades that may or may not have worked the way they both wanted them to. Bottom line, if Tibor needed cash for his snakes, he could have sold them to Jordan at wholesale prices, or sold them himself, and paid for shipping, boxes, etc.
