What do you all think of people who commit to purchasing an animal (or more) and then don't end up sending money and won't respond via email or phone call? What do you do to reduce the number of instances of this sort of behavior?

I've had a couple of "buyers" like this recently who contacted ME to buy animals (I never advertised them) and then they haven't gone through with their commitment and it's just plain irritating!

The only thing I can come up with at this point is just to keep a little list of people I'll never bother engaging in a transaction with. But I still can't think of anything to reduce of eliminate this behavior. Any suggestions?

And to keep on topic I can't wait for this one to shed for the second time! And if you'll notice in the lower left hand corner of the pic, this boa HAS TWO TAILS!!! lol


Thanks for any responses! jb
