Advice and opinion required about problem crested gecko sold by Sarah-Jayne

[blood and guts]

Yet another case of why you should look befor you buy im affraid. The seller may have known there was a problem and decided to off load, we all know this happens but also could be 100% unaware there was a issue.

Somtimes its takes a fresh set of eyes to notice somthing like this, she has offered a payment towards vets witch is fare. Sadly its impossible to offer any other form of garantee when selling livestock, diffrent set ups, poor temps in transist etc etc.

2. She offered to help with vet fees bout because she wont refund you she backed out of helping with vet fees?

3. Nasty comment - A pet is NOT a reason to make money! Your sick if you treat any animal that way. Not aimed at you but revise 1.

4. You will take him to the vet IF needed

5. If needed then why the long term medical bills?

6. Revise why you own pets before you put down other people. Yes you had a bad experience but other people have worse

In answer to 1..I DID buy him for breeding where did I say i did not thats madness.

In answer to 2...I asked her to refund any further vet fees tonight she said no. I have that on MSN. She said she has NO money to refund and therefore it is impossible her words not mine.

In answer to 3.. I dont understand what you are asking here

in answer to 4... I WILL take him to the vet after his next check up IF needed.. I dont get why that was an issue... my vet told me these circumstances would be the reasons to take him after his next check up... the following....unbalanced.. wobbly or moving head oddly. What on earth are you on about in your number 4 question. You seem to be trying to twist this into me being a bad person for taking him to the vet

In answer to 5.. again a pointless comment, if the eye does not change in the next few weeks the vet has asked me to take him back, if it does change I will need to go back sooner.. either you are completely misreading what i wrote intentionally to enable you to twist it or you are simply not understanding.. whatever it is.. go back and re-read

In answer to 6.. So if you wish me to revise buying an animal with the hope of breeding it then the reptile breeding hobby is going to beome defunct completely.. and to ask me to compare my experience with others who have had worse.. why should I .. thats reverse psychology and it wont work with me ( but thank-you for trying)

[messengermatt]

Sod reverse psychology nobody is going to fool for that,

Sarah-jayne is in the process of moving down to live with me and also will have no job.

She cannot afford it and she has a legitimate excuse, i offered £10 towards it and if it bothered you that much you would have taken it.

I am helping sarah out by offering that.

when she sent me OTHER pics.. you can clearly see the problem.. before she sent the animal..

just to clear that up I agree with you here AND macgroovayge ( believe it or not).. i am to blame for not checking something in person which is totally obvious.. since this keeper obviously was totally incapable of doing so before sale or when the animal was in her care.



and with that.. thread closed with full blame taken by me for not realising how incompetant people are.

[messengermatt]

Your just very rude full and full,

i have one word for this

since this keeper obviously was totally incapable of doing so before sale or when the animal was in her care.

*****!
