Why would someone put hundreds of dollars down with ANYONE/ANY COMPANY they have never met in another state and they expressly state NO REFUNDS. Just the fact that they say no refunds, basically make sure they dont have to care what you think about the animal they send you, or when they send it. As a breeder, and a buyer, I would never make a swiss cheese deal like this for any reason. If I sold an animal, collected payment, you are going to get that animal in less than a week. If the weather was in such a state that I would not ship for more than a week, I simply would not be selling at that time. If you knew I had something you wanted, and felt so strong about it you wanted to pay for it, I would let you, but if you asked for a refund, I would absolutly give you one, as no product had ever been sent. Why would anyone expect anything less? If I was you, I would read the fine print next time and think about WHY they might have a rule such as no refunds. One other thing to watch out for when dealing with the same types of companies, is when (and I say when because something usually happens) something happens, they will only CREDIT you tword your next purchase with them, and nothing tword shipping. I had one place ship me a box of frogs, once they got to me half the box was dead, the other half might as well have been dead, and they would only credit me $100 on a $400 box of frogs... shipping on another order alone would be $60 with them........... BEWARE OF HOW THEY DEAL WITH THINGS BEFORE THEY GO BAD!!!



As an example, most people dont know that stores dont have to give you a refund on something you buy and dont like or is broken, or what ever reason. Any store can refuse to refund you any time they want... so why do they just refund you and dont ask alot of questions? Its just good business to make the people that buy from you happy when they walk out the door.
