Here are some e-mails...
These are exactly as I received them from Shawn, unedited by me. Honestly, they are unread as yet as I want everyone to be able to read them. They are also not reformatted except to remove a few blank lines. These are all of the e-mails that I was sent. Sadly, they read bottom to top.

No, I am now convinced that your full intention was to rip me off. If you simply wanted to refund the money because you didn't trust me to cancel the complaint after you FINALLY lived up to your end of the bargain, you could do that in an instant. You say there is over $600.00 in your account. One of the options to resolve the matter is for you to click on the button "issue a refund." If that was your desire, you would have done it and there would not have been an issue of whether you trusted me enough to ship the animals. YOU DID NOT. Instead, you chose a deceptive option of providing Paypal with a tracking number that was SUPPOSED to be the tracking number for the shipment of the purchased item, ot the tracking number for a receipt. Since you are insisting that I cancel the complaint BEFORE you make an overdue shipment, my conclusion is that I was right in trying to protect myself. I have showed all the trust in the world by sending payment in full. I have waited patiently while you have continually reiterated your misfortunes. You spent the money I sent you without shipping the animals and now you continually accuse me of doing something wrong. For someone who supposedly is so concerned for their reputation, you have gone a long way in tarnishing it. All communications at this point have been between us only. I have not bothered plastering these e-mails over every reptile forum that you claim holds you in such high esteem. I have agreed to live up to my end of the bargain and cancel the complaint if you would simply ship the animals that I HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR IN FULL. To this point you have still refused to do that. Now, after taking my full payment, you still refuse to ship the animals and say you will "leave it up to Paypal." Well, I am not so inclined to leave it up to them alone. If you still refuse to ship the animals then my next step will be to Contact the Bureau of Criminal Investigation in the Pennsylvania State Police and every agency I possibly can in regard to interstate fraud. I leave it up to you.

I am confused. Your first paragraph states that you have NEVER had any problems regarding reptile transactions, then you go on in your third paragraph states you RECENTLY got ripped off due to an order mistake.
Unfortunately, there was never anything bad written about the other people that ripped me off either, so that doesn't go to forming my opinion.
As far as trust goes, we have to remember that I already sent the money. I only filed the complaint after non receipt of the animals which I'm sure is not in dispute. You had told me before that your PayPal account was empty, so another item that cannot be disputed is that you received payment in full and spent it in full prior to shipping the animals. PayPal terms stipulate that I will only get my money back if there is enough money in the account to cover the refund. If I cancel the complaint, there is nothing to keep you from emptying the account and never responding again. You would simply set up another account in another name and I would be left holding air. You keep talking about trust, but you are the one with the merchandise AND the money, I still have nothing and have missed out on the opportunity to buy two other lots of female BP's (one at a lower price than yours- they were willing to take $400.00 shipped for a lot of 20) while waiting for you to make good on a sale that you already conducted. You see, your paypal account is not the only one empty, mine is too. I sent it all to you for these females. In fact I didn't even have $450.00 at the time, that is why I had initially asked if you would accept $400.00. I wasn't trying to lowball you, it was all that was in the account so I sent the whole $400.00 and added $50.00 from a credit card.
I made payment in full in good faith without ever seeing the animals I was getting, and even waited when you were going through your evacuation without taking any measures. I am even taking you at your word that you are not simply delaying shipment waiting for another import lot to substitute for the animals I have been told perished without any proof. Yet you now insist that I am the one who has somehow proven untrustworthy and you refuse to ship the animals until I leave myself totally unprotected. Since I am the ONLY ONE in this transaction that has EVER fulfilled their obligation I find it hard to believe that you are insisting that I drop everything and place my full trust in you. At what point am I going to be trusted and when will you live up to your end of the bargain?

I'm sorry that I have to be the one to pay for the
mistakes (or thievery) of other people who have ripped
you off. I have never had any probelms like this with
my reptile transactions before. If I had, my name
would have been aroudn every reptiel messese board on
the "bad guy" list instead of the "good guy" list like
it is now.
I can only send the snakes if you cancel the
complaint. I don't know you either. I don't want to
end up without 25 snakes or so and without the
$450.00, not in the current financial shape I am in
right now, which is obviously bad. I am sure I can
find another buyer(s) for the snakes.
I do understand you position that you don't know me,
but I also don't know you. I have also been ripped
off (as recently as last a couple weeks ago) when I
trusted someone to cancel a PayPal complaint after he
received his animals in excellent condition and even
better than described. This guy who was accidentally
sent the wrong order (one that was sent prior to the
hurricane). When he did receive the correct order(2
boxes had been mixed up when labels were placed on
them, he received a ball python baby, which he was
allowed to keep, because I was able to send the other
persona another one) he told me the animals (leopard
geckos) were "some of the best he had ever seen" and
then stated "well, since you screwed my order up in
the first place, I'm not canceling my complaint
because I want my money back anyway". And guess what?
As incompetent as PayPal is, even though I sent them
copies of every e-mail he had sent me, along with the
tracking number and photos of the leopard geckos, they
STILL refunded his money ($320.00) and gave me ZERO
explanation (even though I DID send them the e-mail
where the guy admitted to have receiving them). I am
really beginning to hate Paypal anyway. Yes, they may
be a "quick and easy" way to pay, but when there is a
problem, they are very, very slow.
Also, you would *think* that when there is a dispute,
they would maybe "freeze" the funds in your account
that are "up to" the amount being disputed (in this
case $450.00), but no, they froze the whole account,
even the funds over the $450.00. So my biggest issue
here isn't really with you, it's with the way PayPal
has handled this. They also have made it nearly
impossible for me to RECEIVE money. I have items for
sale on Ebay and people are really ticked to find out
that I can't accept PayPal. I have lost some $$$
because of my PayPal account being frozen. And FYI,
if you want to verify my usual business practices,
check out my Ebay feedback. My user name there is:
backbaybargainsbiloxi
Anyway, I am sorry we couldn't get this worked out in
a quicker way. I guess PayPal will review this for
the next 30 days or so and get back to us with
whatever they decide. Just in case they they tell me
to send the snakes out and for me to keep the $450.00,
I will hold onto the snakes until PayPal makes their
decision.
Thanks.

Like I had said, you may have honestly been set back by this series of events and a year and a half ago I would have never even initiated the complaint and waited for you to resolve the matter. However, with the regular manner in which I have been deceived with internet transactions, I feel I have to protect myself in any way that I can. I apologize for the fact that I do not personally know you and this is the only transaction I have to judge you by, but feel that if I cancel the complaint before receiving the animals it would just be a case of "fool me twice (or in this case - 4 times) shame on me."
I was not trying to circumvent your wholesale purchasing ability, only verify the origin of the animals. I'm sure that you are aware that there are plenty of unscrupulous people out there that represent wild caught animals that may be infested and not eating as CB stock. I have raised those animals before and dealt with the associated problems, but paid a price representative of an imported animal in lots from $7.00 to $11.00. I did not want that hassle again. I am also confident that even though you have been frustrated and victimized by these events, you would understand my point of view in wanting to protect myself if you looked at this as a third party. I have every intention of following through on the transaction that we started and will be happy to cancel the complaint upon the arrival of the animals. I am sorry that in good conscience I cannot do it sooner. I will state that after receiving the animals, if they are as represented and you have access to additional females, I would be happy to purchase additional animals. I hope that you understand my position.

Here are the answers to your questions:
1) The animals weren't shipped because FedEx was not
accepting packages for delivery for a period of 2 days
plus over a weekend (a total of 4 days). I was
evacuated for the hurricane and felt it best to take
ALL of the animals I had with me. I had 30 total ball
pythons which I took, as well as many other reptiles,
a guinea pig, a cockatiel bird, a cat and a dog.
Unfortunately, several of my animals succumbed to the
heat. I lost 24 ball pythons, 16 during or directly
after getting back home and a few more within a couple
of days that I figured had been injured by the heat as
well. I still have 6. I decided not to send those 6
out to the guy who bought 10 because I was uncertain
how the heat had effected them (I was stranded with my
animals and my broken down car, in the heat, for about
40 hours). I also lost a bearded dragon that died
from the heat. I did all I could to keep everything
cooled, but I still lost the smallest and youngest of
the reptiles I had with me (the ball pythons). I'm
not sure what you mean by "transport them back" as you referenced in this e-mail and a couple others. When I was evacuated, I went basically 110 miles North. On my way back, about 90 miles form home, my car overheated and broke down. I was stranded on the side of Highway 49 for like I said, about 40 hours. I finally got a family member from Georgia on the phone and was able to get enough $$$ to call a wrecker and be towed home (I was totally flat broke, except for like maybe $40 cash) because I had to pay to stay in a hotel, pay for gas, etc for the evacuation.
2) After between the time you filed your complaint
with PayPal and the time they "limited" (froze) my
account I sold several other reptiles, including a
large red tegu and several other reptiles, so there is
now $612.00 plus change in my account that I can't
access. That is money I made form other reptiles that
I sold that were paid for. I now have no way to use
my FedEx account either since they debit my PayPal
debit card for shipping charges, so now I also have 5
very angry people wanting their reptiles and I can't
send them. FedEx now has my shipping account "on
hold" because the credit/debit card I have on my
shipping account is "frozen" by PayPal along with the
PayPal account funds.
3) I don't give out people's phone numbers, I didn't
even want to give you his e-mail address. I don't
generally reveal my wholesalers to everyone because if
I did, I wouldn't get the deals that I do. Normally I
would not have even given out his e-mail address.
4) As stated in the ad, these are CB females,
guaranteed by me personally. If you haven't checked,
I do have an excellent reputation on the Fauna BOI and
have references from some of the better known reptile
breeders in the country.
5) I didn't circumvent anything. PayPal still has my
account frozen. I did send you a merchandise credit certificate showing that you were entitled to the 20 female ball pythons you purchased. And yes, I was planning to also send you at least 5 extras. I didn't list them on the credit certificate because I didn't want there to be any confusion with PayPal after having 20 ball pythons listed in the payment then 25 listed on the credit.
6) Finally, why is it
> taking so long to ship the animals your "good friend
> who you have done business with for over three
> years" has if they are already available?
As I told you in another e-mail, he is NOT shipping
them to me. I have to go pick them up in person from
Georgia. I am TRADING him some of my personal items
(couch set and table, as well as some other things)
for these ball pythons. I had to wait until the last
weekend of the month (this coming weekend) to go get
them because I won't have $$ for gas to get there
until that time, when I get my last check from my
former employer on the 30th.
I have tried to explain this mess the best way I know
how. I am still willing to either refund your money
or send the snakes on Monday, August 1st. Either is
fine with me at this point, as I have resigned myself
to the fact that PayPal is holding onto the funds in
my account until they resolve this mess. I was
notified by them the other day that it would take "up
to 30 days" once the case was in review (and according
to what I see on PayPal, it went into review on
7/23/05). I am trying to )locally) sell off all of my household items, aquariums, and everything that isn't tied down in order to get the $$ together to move. My landlord has given me until August 10th to move, so I got a few days reprieve when I explained to her that some of my $$$ was frozen up by PayPal. I still don't have enough $$$ to move, but I will figure something out. I do have one good local job prospect and a 2nd interview tomorrow, so hopefully I will at least have a job soon (jobs here are difficult to find).
So basically, if you want to cancel the PayPal
complaint I can immediately refund your money. If you
want the snakes I can do that too. If not, I totally understand and am willing to just let PayPal work this out over the next 30 days or so. I am resigned to the fact that I am not going to have access to the funds in my PayPal account for at least 30 days anyway.

You may have been honestly setback by unfortunate circumstances, but I have been ripped off so often in such a short time I no longer find myself able to trust strangers over the internet. I have a few problem with your several e-mails.
No explanation was ever offered as to why the animals were not shipped in the first place. Either before you evacuated or, if there was not enough time, after you did so. Why transport them back when they were already paid for?
You stated that about half the animals died. Now, not only did all 20 of the animals I purchase die, but an additional 10. Are you now saying that every ball python you had died?
You told me that if I filed a complaint with PayPal they wuld have to debit your account as you had no money in it. Now you say that you have $600.00 in it.
I asked you for a phone number of the person who bred the snakes to verify they were CB and you have never supplied it. You only supplied an e-mail address that we both know you COULD have set up yourself. (I'm not saying that you did).
I have seen import females for as low as $9.00. I do not want to risk my current collection with them. I need to have some proof that these are CBB in the U.S. I would much rather have the snakes than the refund if they can be verified.
You state in your last e-mail that you would be happy to refund my money "if I would let you". One of the possible resolutions to a PayPal complaint is "issue a refund" yet you chose to deceive PayPal and circumvent an automatic refund by providing a tracking number for an invoice, leading them to believe it was a tracking number for the items purchased.
You stated in one of your e-mails that if I was willing to wait for you to resolve this matter, you would send the 20 ball pythons I purchased "plus a few more for the delay", but now have never mentioned the additional animals.
Finally, why is it taking so long to ship the animals your "good friend who you have done business with for over three years" has if they are already available?

I hope you have received my other e-mails and do hope
that you will respond soon.
I am trying to get this situation worked out as
quickly as humanly possible for your benefit and mine.
I advised PayPal of the tracking number for the
Merchandise Credit Certificate that was sent out to
you. Please let me know if you also would like that
tracking number, as it was sent Priority Mail with
Delivery Confirmation.
However, at this point if you would rather have a
refund, I would be glad to send it to you immediately
rather than wait for PayPal to resolve this. I just
checked with PayPal and their next step is this:
"Step 4 - PayPal Dispute Resolution Specialist reviews
case
In some cases, a buyer and seller are unable to agree
on a resolution. In these situations, the case is sent
to an impartial PayPal Dispute Resolution Specialist
for review. The specialist will collect relevant
information about the transaction from the buyer and
seller to determine whether the buyer's claim should
be granted. Cases are reviewed in the order in which
they are received. It may take several weeks to gather
the necessary information and come to a conclusion."
Unfortunately I don't have sveral weeks in order to
wait to be able to access the funds currently in my
account. I also have peopel that are trying to pay me
for items purchased on Ebay that can't do so because
my account is frozen until this matter is resolved.
Obviously it is up to you if you want to cancel the
claim and have me send you an immediate refund. I can
do that, or we can just sit and wait for "several
weeks" (as per PayPal's words) on their decision.
Please let me know something ASAP. I am to the point
here where I am about to be homeless because of this
situation. I am not kidding here in the least. I
*have* to be able to access my PayPal account (and
have people send $$$) in order to have money to be
able to get another place to live. I have $16 in my
bank account right now and that's all I have to my
name except the funds in my PayPal account.
This all started because of a hurricane (Hurricane
Dennis). I would hope that you would be understanding
enough to understand that things have happened that
are beyond my control.
I am terrified right now that I am going to be
homeless soon and living in my car. You are the only
person who can fix this situation and I am begging you
to do so. I will refund your money immediately if you
will just allow me to do so.
Thanks.

Okay, I am sympathetic to having problems and am trying to understand the way things have happened. What I can't understand is- why would they have been transported both ways in the first place? I would think that you would have just shipped them first, or at the very least shipped them from the location you evacuated to if there had not been enough time.
I am not saying that I don't believe you, it's just that I have now been burned on three different occasions with internet purchases and am out significant money on some high end purchases (nearly $5,500.00) so I am starting to become a pessimist. Then I paid $700.00 a piece for "het" albino females that turned out to be normals.
This time, I just wanted some captive born females that I could raise myself and go from there, but it is starting to sound fishy. There are a flood of imports out there that people are substituting for CB or representing as CB and I was trying to stay away from that.
Could you supply a phone number of the guy that is supposed to have the females that you plan on sending?

There was a problem that occurred during the time I
evacuated for the hurricane. The majority of the
reptiles I took with me, about half of them (mostly
ball pythons plus one bearded dragon), have died. I
will have to guess that it is because of the extreme
heat with them (and me) being stranded in a broken
down car for almost 2 days. I did all I could to cool
them and myself during the trip, including taking the containers to shady areas, etc. When the wrecker picked up my car and me, I even left the windows down in transit so that air could flow and allow the reptiles to be cooled some. Unfortunately, some of the reptiles had died before I got home. This morning several others had passed, possibly also due to stress. I wish now that I had just stayed home, or at least left the reptiles here. However, when I left there was a mandatory evacuation order for my area and a Category 4 hurricane looked like it was going to make a direct hit on us.
Anyway, here is what I can offer at this point. The
same guy I purchased these babies from has several
more (and does have many females) that I will be able
to go and get from him the last weekend in July (2
weeks from tomorrow basically). I would be able to
send all of the female ball pythons to you and ship on
Monday, August 1st. These are all very well
established, feeding on thawed frozen, cb, etc. Most
were hatched early to mid-June. I am going to make a
trade with Donnie to get these, but he has assured me
is will hold onto these for me. I have done business
with him for over 3 years and have known him even
longer. If I could go pick these snakes up sooner I
would, but finances won't allow it right now
unfortunately.
In the alternative, I can refund your money if you
would like. However, please note that it will
possibly be June 29th before I can send a refund.
That will be the first time that I know for sure I
will have enough $$$ to send you a full refund. To be
honest with you, right now my bank account is
seriously overdrawn and I had to borrow $$$ from a
family member just to get my car towed home when it
broke down.
Also, since you paid through PayPal, obviously you are
free to file through them for a refund. I am not sure
how that works, but I am guessing that they would just
refund your $$ and make my PayPal account a negative
balance since there aren't any funds in it.
I sincerely apologize for this entire mess. These
tropical storms and hurricanes have basically
financially ruined me. Makes me wish I had never
moved out of Atlanta.
Please let me know what you would like for me to do
from this point. I will be happy to send snakes (plus
a couple extras for your time and trouble) on August
1st, or either of the other alternatives.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
