How to write up Papers on Hets??

kjustice Aug 25, 2011 02:29 PM

Hey,
I would like to know how you guys write papers up when you sell hets?
I want to make sure that the person whom I send the snake to can confidentially prove later on to others that what they have is a 100 percent het albino. Possibly by printing off a document with the parent pictures and records of birth with signatures?

You pretty much summed up what I would do.

Here's what always comes to mind everytime I think of paperwork. A passage from the movie Tommy Boy.....

Tommy: Let's think about this for a sec, Ted. Why would somebody put a guarantee on a box? Hmmm, very interesting.

Ted Nelson, Customer: Go on, I'm listening.

Tommy: Here's the way I see it, Ted. Guy puts a fancy guarantee on a box 'cause he wants you to feel all warm and toasty inside.

Ted Nelson, Customer: Yeah, makes a man feel good.

Tommy: 'Course it does. Why shouldn't it? Ya figure you put that little box under your pillow at night, the Guarantee Fairy might come by and leave a quarter, am I right, Ted?
[chuckles until he sees that Ted is not laughing]

Ted Nelson, Customer: [impatiently] What's your point?

Tommy: The point is, how do you know the fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Building model airplanes" says the little fairy; well, we're not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that's all it takes. The next thing you know, there's money missing off the dresser, and your daughter's knocked up. I seen it a hundred times.

Ted Nelson, Customer: But why do they put a guarantee on the box?

Tommy: Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of [bleep]. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.

Ted Nelson, Customer: [pause] Okay, I'll buy from you.

In other words just buy from someone you can trust.

To me, documentation papers on hets are a joke! Anybody can claim anything and write it down! If you produced them and you know they're hets, don't worry about it!

HerpVenue Aug 26, 2011 12:03 AM

its all good. Until a person buys a het from you.
Same person buys 100 normals from someone else. Same person starts selling the het that he bought from you 100 times.

It has happened in the past. It will happen in the future.

If you don't want to send paperwork with pictures then always keep records of what you sell and to whom and with pictures too.
