    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....

I don't know why you lied, But lie you did. Yesterday you said you went to the vet, today you said you went to the vet. You are lying. And if you would lie about that, you might lie about the snake that you allegedly took to the vet, it might be one of your own collection.

How long did it take you to think of that explanation. Not long enough, you forgot the discrepancy in costs that you posted. You got caught in a lie and you are trying to bluster your way out.

You got caught in a lie, now you want to divert attention away from yourself. Sorry, readers here are smarter than that.
 
Rick, you have made Canyon County Reptiles look really good here, and yourself look pretty pitiful just from your posts compared to theirs. Congratulations. Another seller beware thread.

With due respect Andy. Do you not mean another buyer beware thread?
 
Lol your so lock in keeping this thread going is like you don't have a life this is all you do

What does that say about you?

Why haven't you posted the messages sent between you and the seller showing she was blowing you off and making excuses? Why haven't you posted pictures showing that you received the wrong snake? Why do you get mad when anyone asks you for proof?

There's usually one reason for that: you're full of it.

Seems kind of "convenient" that now, after a full body photo was requested, you are stating that you were sent a different snake than what was purchased.
One would think that, if this were true, it would have been mentioned in your initial BOI post, or in your PayPal complaint, or, definitely, would have been in the messages between you and Canyon Country Reptiles.
Interesting.

I was thinking the same thing !!! and would also add.. OP keeps saying how long he's been in this yet he believes a 905g female is ready to breed ??? or will be soon.. for me anyways a 900g snake is only 2 years old, that snake needs another full year at least..

extremely unreasonable buyer, I hope to never have to deal with someone like that. There is positive insight in this post.. I keep all emails from all sells including texts.. but now I will add a few extra steps, seeing how some buyers could be..

1- will create folders for each snake sold and save all communications in case needed.

2- will also take extra pics of ea snake to add to folder, including of the snake being packed up to ship.

If the OP would have been calm and reasonable, this entire situation would have been worked out. But he chose to block every chance of this 3h after getting the snake !!

another BOI that turns on the OP
 
Lesson learned

I absolutely agree! I've been honest in saying that the shipping aspect is fairly new to us and, if anything, we've learned numerous valuable lessons on how to protect our business and animals. Without a doubt, we will keep more meticulous records and documentation with photos, videos, and copies of everything.

We still have every intention of doing what is necessary to make this situation right, but honestly, it is difficult to determine what that is, now. Regardless, we know we will NEVER be dealing with this buyer again and will make sure other reputable breeders are given warning about his unprofessional behaviors.
 
Jessica - thank you for posting the FedEx tracking. Can you let us know the transfer hub was used?

I noted the snake shipped without a heat pack. Cross-country shipments can be tricky this time of year. If the package took a northern route, like through Chicago, it may have gotten cold even if your temps and those of the recipient were safe.

The snake left us and went to Horseheads, NY - which is about an hour north of us. Then it goes to Memphis - there is a hub there. Every snake we've shipped out always goes through Memphis - even one we sent to Connecticut this summer (we noticed that and thought it odd). After Memphis, it went to Burbank, Ca then on to North Hills, Ca, then to the buyer.

We've discussed the use of a heat pack and would definitely use one if the weather was too cold. I agree - tricky this time of year. Typically, December weather is colder, but we did have unseasonably warmer weather for about 3 days - 60s and upper 50s. Our experience with heat packs is that they haven't stayed warm for long. We just received a snake in to our shop and it had a 40-hour heat pack (according to seller), and it wasn't warm and the snake was chilly by the time it got to us - but not to the point of being harmful to it . We understand that it can happen. Now, if it was 20 degrees or something, that's different. Another lesson learned here too, I guess.
