Hi guys,
Thanks for all your responses and suggestions. I isolated the dragon in a 36 x 24 x 18 in. enclosure with a 24" reptisun 10.0 UVB and a basking bulb (basking spot temp 97-110F, 85F on cool side of cage) since I got her.
From the latest email I got from the seller, she told me that she could only refund me the full selling price, after I send her back the dragon. From previous conversations, she specified that she cannot even cover shipping (back to her) and vet/meds fees.
I recognize that I miscalculated the seller when I informed her that I will bring the dragon to the vet. It was a mistake, but I was expecting that she could give me a partial refund as a discount for sending a sick dragon or at least offer to cover the meds (less the vet visit fee, since I did not make that clear, as you noted). I'm sure I would have not been in this situation if I only dealt with a reputable breeder. But anyways...Now I am left with two options:
1. Send her back the dragon and get my $412, pay for shipping back the dragon, and I lost the vet fee, meds, and shipping fee (- $200),
2. Keep the dragon, hope it recovers in full health, and ended up paying $563 (price of the dragon and the vet fees). With the risk that if she doesn't make it, or if she gets more complications, I could possibly lose more money, since I won't have the chance of getting a refund. Especially with the kind of seller I'm dealing with.
What would you do if you were in my situation? I would appreciate suggestions...
The dragon is a 14 month old female Cawley Red Hypo that the seller bought from Dachiu last year. Here's a pic
