    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    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 Dealing with Captive Bred Excellence left a bad taste in my mouth...

Lordofwar. I never qoated her a price of $125 for the mohave het male and het female it was for the normal het pair, please read everything befre responding.

Had the seller realized the error while the transaction was still pending he could have chosen not to honor the pricing error. It is well settled that mistakes in advertising (under most circumstances) do not bind the seller if the error is caught.
However, once the transaction is completed, it is completed.
 
You as a business man, or woman should have verified payment received, and known what to release it's not like she came to your place of business, and went through your stock, and took what she wanted it sucks to loose money a mistake was made, but you released the animals. I have not met anyone in 43 years of life who hand's product over without knowing that the received proper payment. I have been in this position as we are all human and mistakes occur, I have lost before for a similar situation. I took it as a learning experience and moved on.
 
I have read everything it doesn't change the fact that the mistake was on your end and not caught till after sale was finalized. The fact of the matter is your business handed over the wrong animals, they whete not the animals she was supposed to receive or paid for, this is obviously fact, but also appears to be fact is your business handed them over. As I stated we are all human mistakes are made,but it was a till you or your employees who handed over the wrong animals simply this is my point it was a mistake and It was unfortunate that you where unable to catch it before the sale was finalized.
 
And the original transaction did go smoothly. The money was sent in a timely manner, the mojave het pied and the normal het pied hatchlings that were discussed multiple times in message and over the phone were handed off. It was done.

And then a day later this happened. I've attempted to be nothing but cordial and I am just here to present the facts. That's it.

I'm still heartbroken I had to give up my scale baby.

I admit I'm at fault and should have caught the mistake. I also feel Elissa as at fault when starting the deal refurring to the het pair instead of the mohave het pair. Is there a compramze or is the sellar 100% wrong? As I said I was considering just eating the $50 until the threats started. So where do we go from here?

Tad,

I think if you let her have the pair for the original quoted price you may lose a few dollars but people will respect you for sticking to your deal, especially as your buyer had become quickly attached to her new pets.
 
@webslave if the four files are attached here then it was successful on my Mobil device. Otherwise I will have to attach then permanently once I get home later today.

My opinion is just that my opinion I happen to agree with Lucille's comment it was a mistake a unfortunate mistake God knows I have made my share should it be held over your head and tarnish your name? No I don't believe it should I honestly hope you both can come to a arrangement that is acceptable to both parties. Life is not perfect nor are the people in this world, good luck to the both of you. I can relate to losing because I sent t he wrong package to the wrong person. It was unfortunate , but it was done.As I said I hope you two can come to agreement that is satisfactory to you both.
 
Lucille, I agree and would have if she hadn't threatened me. I don't respond well to threats and have NEVER had an issue like this before in over 20 years. I do this as a hobby/business and don't need the money so threats won't work. I did what I'm going to do by giving her a refund. I'm sorry this worked out the way it did. If that keeps people from purchasing from us so be it. We have high quality animals, great prices and ongoing support. And yes I stick by my prices listed in any and all ads.

Seems as if the buyer became rude and threatening, the seller took a hard line stance then refunded the money.

Elissa would have probably had better results not threatening Tad but trying to work it out with him in a calmer more respectful manner.

At one during out private emails back and forth I was considering just letting her have them for $125, but then she threatened to tarnish out reputation by talking bad about us on all the west coast shows.

Please post the email. Here, she just related what happened. I'd really like to see exactly how the threats went down please.

There were no threats and it is very upsetting to see that made as an accusation against me... :(

It was said you threatened to tarnish the reputation of Captive bred excellence.

You posted a paypal receipt for $125.00 on a pair of bp's that were posted at $175.00
