Pretty expensive dragon.

Was the dragon shipped over night? Was the shipping box properly packaged (insulated, heat pack etc). It is possible the dragon was completely healthy when packaged but if chilled during shipping, plus stress, it could cause a sudden URI. Though I would expect it would have needed to have a minor one or be recovering from one for it to get bad quickly.

As you didn't work a deal with the seller to cover vet charges if you took the dragon to the vet, I don't see any reason to expect her to re-imburse you the cost to see the vet. She certainly should offer to either reimburse you the cost of the dragon, or exchange it for a healthy one of equal value.

So far it sounds like she is being cooperative and willing to replace the dragon.
