This is an exaggeration of the weather conditions at your home in Beaumont, CA (what your user name is registered with). At the time you bid on the snake your daily high was 93F, nightly low was 63F. The following week the temperatures did exceed 100F, but the weather broke yesterday and brought your temps back down into the 90s.
Here are the actual temperature readings of your area, for the past month, courtesy of weather.com.
This is a summary of my interpretation of the events:
1. Bid on the desert YB female, won the bid at about $320.
2. Contacted the seller after winning the bid, actually discussed the breeding issues associated with desert females during that call.
3. You made arrangements to sell the snake to a third party individual.
4. You decide you want a refund, initially using high temperatures as an excuse, then due to the problems associated with breeding desert females.
5. You give the third party individual Acorsi's contact information, who then gives him a blind phone call.
6. Due to delays in Acorsi's response, you post the "info thread" here on the BOI.
Now Acorsi says he refunded you the money. Acorsi, can you please post a screenshot of the transaction here if done electronically?
So far the excuses for the refund are:
1. Poor shipping conditions.
2. My daughter doesn't want to wait on the snake, she wants it now!
3. Breeding problems with female deserts.
Only the third excuse is legitimate. The first two reek of buyer's remorse. Considering you stated the first two excuses before you even touched upon the third excuse tells me that you didn't put much thought into this purchase at all. If you were one of my customers I'd be pretty unhappy with the drama you've brought unnecessarily to the whole transaction.
The whole non-disclosure thing is a legitimate concern, and the only one which warrants a refund from Acorsi. The rest is just a soap opera.

Apparently I didn't get that memo.
