I would wait another year before coming to the conclusion you were lied to, but you might have been - or the dealer may have shipped the wrong snake(s) to you in an honest but careless accident.



Mathematically speaking - the odds of not getting an albino if both are het and you got 8 eggs should be (3/4)^8 * 100% = 10%



Those are low odds, but not low enough to indicate you were lied to. Now if it happens next year, meaning they produced 16 young with no albinos, that's 1% odds and your pair are not both HETs.



Did you buy them from a reputable dealer?

I don't think you can say who it is on the forum due to the TOS - but you should be able to indicate wether or not they are a "well known" dealer.
