Corsac Foxes - Page 3

Hi Jake

I presume your post was directed towards me.

Please see http://www.reptileforums.co.uk/domestic-exotics-classifieds/404854-m-c-mammals-now-open.html

and then read over this thread again.

To me the Corsacs can be viewed as they are on site, yet to someone else they are asked to pay 20 -25% deposit as they are not on site( its there in black and white on both threads ) . He also said to Elina they stay with the breeder until sold ?.

He asks one person for a 20 - 25% deposit which would equate to nearly £500 so I queried this for viewing the Tamarins which would equate to somewhere in the region of £600 - £700. Yet to me the cost is £45.

A friend of mine was told if they wanted to view an animal they would have to buy it first. When she queried this he said he meant that if someone bought them then she could go and view them. Why would someone go and view an animal they can't buy.

He states they are breeders and have people who specifically breed for them and that they have 90% of the animals on site.
They have none of the Marmosets or Tamarins on site. Still not known if they have the Corsacs on site ?.
I am led to believe they don't have the Raccoons, Skunks, Prevosts and quite a number of other animals on site either.

It has nothing to do with patience it is to do with honesty.

Best Wishes

Neil

I have to say Chris you aren't doing yourself any favours here.

Having looked at your website I was interested in quite a few of the animals on there, but your attitude on this thread to what are perfectly justified questions leads me to think I'm better off looking elsewhere, and I daresay I'm not the only one either.

That is allot of money to just agree to spend when you have not seen the animal.
20-25% of £2,375 is a hell of a lot for a car ride....Even if it was to be two journeys due to them needing to be returned to the breeder.
Also when asked if she could go and see them at the breeder that was not allowed so the only way to see it was to pay the 20-25%.

Very odd that now we are being told on this forum £45-. If that was told to my friend maybe she would have been more inclined to buy from you.

just out of interest, would the two indian crested procupines for sale be the same ones you were struggling to sell a number of months ago?

also, if the animal is not available you should not advertise it as "for sale", if it is an awaited litter then you should put it as "available soon" or something like that. if the animal is not available to be bought that day (or deposit paid and couriered asap) then it is not available for sale

edited to add: these are the porcupines im wondering about>> Male porcupine for sale

so if people want things in a hurry and i dont have space to long term hold then they will need to cover the money falling out of my pocket, or simply wait untill they are on site

She said she wanted to see them, not buy them. She would think of buying them after seeing the actual animal. You only told her the 20-25% to see them, not £45-.
Also then saying 'if people want things in a hurry'. It was you who said she had to put an order in within TWO days or not get them if she did want them. I am pretty sure this sounds like you are the one in a hurry...

Anyway good luck with your brokering.

As an animal dealer would it not be more appropriate for you to sponsor the site or discuss what you have for sale or not in the classifieds section?

It might do you a favour as many of the posts on here are not painting a very favourable picture IMHO. Just a thought...
