Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

PayPal disputes
Has anyone had any luck/experience with getting refunds from PayPal when opening up a dispute against a bad deal?

Since this isn't about a specific person, it's more geared toward the "General Business Discussions" forum. You might want to create a new thread there, since this one will likely be locked and deleted.

It's very simple - if you or they stuck a tracking number on the dispute and/or the original transaction and the tracking number shows the package addressed properly and the respective shipping service website confirms package delivered, there's nothing that can be done for live animal shipments. They simply won't get involved, and it's their prerogative.
With that said, I have had luck getting money on deals where no tracking number was present and it wasn't a live animal shipment.

No luck
I once paid someone for a snake, and then they disappeared. They never did ship. I opened a dispute through PayPal. The process takes a lot of time, and PayPal gives the seller way to much time and too many notices. They notify the seller that if they do not issue a refund or provide the product that they will deduct the funds from the account(s) set up in PayPal. This gives the seller ample time to clear their accounts. So in my case I paid over $500 for a snake, and got back 76 cents. PayPal claimed they would continue working to get the rest of the funds, but that was many years ago, and of course I never saw another penny.

That is why a credit card should ALWAYS be used for PayPal payments, even if one has the cash. The credit card company simply removes the magical electronic funds, and credits your account; leaving PayPal to try to recoup from the seller.
A lot of people complain and point fingers at people that remove money from their PayPal accounts before the buyer receives the animal. Holding the money there, in case a refund is in order, is nice in theory; but, practically, it means that any purchase made using PayPal would draw from those funds automatically. Should everybody be required to forego their own purchase protection, simply because they sold something that hasn't been received & outlasted the guarantee period?
