I still wouldn't trust him, maybe that's just me. It took him a decade to make something right should have been fixed the day you asked for it to be fixed. He sent you animals that were mite ridden, dehydrated WC's with internal parasites....I mean, ANYONE in the business would look at those animals and say "Wow, those WC's are in are in bad shape...." or "Wow, those CB's were neglected to the point of death...."
He knew what he had and he chose to lie and try to pass them off onto you.
It might be 10 + years later, but he could have the holy grail of pythons for sale right now at the best price possible and I wouldn't go near it with a 10 foot pole just based off how he handled himself all that time ago.
People don't change their spots very often. If he had morals and high standards to keep his animals healthy, happy and thriving it would show in ALL his dealings, past and present.
I was the first person outside Australia to produce Albino Carpets. I produced about 400 babies until I sold my project. EVERY single transaction and animal sold I gave 110% attention to in order to keep the customer happy and the animal healthy. It's not hard to be a stand up guy if your heart is in the right place. I never misrepresented an animal in order to make a buck.
Might just be me, but I highly doubt he's a stand up guy. It's more likely he wants this thread to go away so he can keep selling animals without this hurting his sales.
Couldn't agree more.....this is just another example of the BOI pressuring a scammer into doing the right thing.
Integrity is doing the right when nobody is watching, not the other way around.
