refund dilemma

David,

Your solution is not what I would have expected from your intitial reasoning.

We never worked out finer points of out transaction (like default), perhaps a mistake on my part.

Not "perhaps", it was a mistake. Bear with me that I'm not saying you are wrong, it simply caught me by surprise.

You acknowleged that you may have made a mistake but you still made a detailed account of $ to the "T"; including dollars and cents to the second decimal.

I pride myself in being an honest member of the herp community and want to do what's right, however, I feel as though I am being taken advantage of here.

What would be right is to acknowledge that there were no terms in writing. This individual offered $30 (he didn't have to) and you feel you are being taken advantage of when there were no clear TOS. Again, you will obviously do as you think is right but there was nothing pre-arranged.

I pride myself in being an honest member of the herp community and want to do what's right, however, I feel as though I am being taken advantage of here.

Do you really feel he really is taking advantage of you? There were no terms specified and he offered you $30 for the inconvenience. We sometimes loose and sometimes win; a few $ will not make you richer, being a little more understanding might...

Best regards.

That is exactly the point *no terms.*

After more thought *and asking my former business professor about the situation* (He basically said the same thing as Dan).

btw: He still has the snake, and would have had to feed it regardless.

I agree with Dan.

** I didn't get an "A" on my reasoning in this instance. :shrug01:

Yeah the no terms thing has been a stick in my crawl the more I have thought about it. You really just cant do it after the fact.

Take the $30 offered and chalk it up as a learning experience.
