Bad Guy Heather Colwell / Majestic Morphs

I did not take the snake to a vet, I did ask Heather If she thought I should.

I only went on the feedback from people here. I figure they have many many years of experience and some have probably experienced a similar situation. I wasn't seeing which theories stick, I went by all of them and there wasn't any that suggested it happened recently. The pewter hurting himself trying to squeeze out of his closure never came up as a theory. I never considered it either, and from the set-up he was in I don't think it's possible. There are plastic protrusions that stick down from the lid, but they look all rounded and smooth.
 
He's much better and has been for last few days. He's eating. and looks content. Aside from the unknown possibility of neurological damage, and the scarring under his chin he's happy, He has not had any bowel movements other than small deposits of uriates. I am optomistic that he will be fine.

And I have definately learned from all this to do a detailed going over on any animal purchased right away. And most important to not jump to any conclusions about the health of an animal until you know for sure.
 
Majestic Morphs

I have bought from Majestic Morphs a couple of times now and have always got great snakes and found them easily to work with and answer any questions that I have. I plan on buying from them again.

Shipping insurance was not purchaed

So shipping was not refunded? Did you offer the insurance to the buyer and they declined? As a seller that would be the first thing I would do unless they flat out declined the insurance. It was up to you to either offer it to the buyer or just include it in the shipping cost.

Especially if you expect the buyer to eat the shipping...
 
I thought shipping insurance was pretty much useless, since UPS and FedEx do not insure "perishable" goods? The only company I've heard of refunding the cost of shipping because of delay (not the animals) was shipyourreptiles, and that after some back-and-forth if I recall correctly.
 
I know for a fact UPS and Shipyourreptiles will refund overnight shipping if they didn't get it to you on time. I've had both refund me. I've noticed a lot of breeders pocket the refunded money instead of giving it back to the person that paid for the shipping, which is awful. I got a breeder that owes me shipping money right now and I'm sure I will never see it.

That is good to know, I didn't think UPS did that! ... is that "insurance" or just standard policy if you pay for overnight shipping but don't receive it?
 
You have to call UPS and complain... the bad thing is they refund the one who gave them the money & booked the shipment.

With syr you have to purchase the insurance now which would cover the shipping cost if delayed.

I seen that they now have insurance you can buy for the reptiles however they use Fed Ex which has a delivery commitment so the shipping should still be covered if delayed even if you don't get insurance on the animals however SYR may have changed their policy. Something to look into.
