For future reference: If you actually did send the snake back, you should always avoid shipping one that's just eaten.

Odd that no one seems particularly interested in providing anything remotely useful. I guess that if the buyer did indeed send a box, sans snake, it would explain his reticence in giving the requested info. Depending on just who made the initial claims, the target's reticence may be enough to convince some people that there's truth in the claims against him. Given just how I perceive the OP's credibility, based on how he's addressed other situations, I just don't trust his word very much. That leaves me with the current opinion that neither of them have nearly enough credibility to be taken very seriously without tangible evidence.
Of course, the burden of proof really does fall on the OP anyway, and he's given us even less than the buyer has. Since he claims to have the box still, I don't understand the rationale behind ignoring requests to provide easily available information that I'd think would be shown on the label that he says is still intact and in his possession. If giving honest answers would be to his advantage, he should be equally privy to the shipment information that's been asked of the buyer.
Although he hasn't logged back in since the day he posted this thread, I have little doubt that he's well aware of the posts that have been made since then. Whether or not he may wish it to be the case, he knows that logging out doesn't make these situations go away.
With "almost 30 years of breeding reptiles and keeping them for over 45 years," as well as "1000s" of customers over those years, I have a lot of trouble believing that such a person would have somehow avoided learning the need to document certain things. In the likelihood that he comes back here and says that he didn't think to do an unboxing video, it just seems like it would have been an extremely convenient oversight. There's some degree of possibility that simple ignorance and lack of experience could explain away some of the buyer's shortcomings in this situation; the OP's seem much harder to rationalize. Frankly, the OP just strikes me as someone who wouldn't be above making false claims out of sheer pettiness and some odd belief that his name alone should be all the corroboration he'd need.tlmoon said:
