Default How would you feel...

If somebody you had sold a snake to had told you she had died of a horrible RI, yet through investigation you find out she is NOT dead, and is actually alive and well with a new family!

Some twisted member of this forum bought a snake from me and she was the apple of her eye... for 5 minutes. Because not long after that she had obviously decided to sell her, yet told me she had passed away due to an RI affecting some of her new royal babies...

From a saved PM dated 26/6/09

Hiya Elle.

Sorry for the late reply... got some very bad news our wee Lacey passed away two days ago.
She got a secondary infection caused by the RI and her body could not beat it. I have now buried her in my garden this morning. On top of her grave, I have planted a lavender so she will never be forgotten

I am absolutely gutted. She was such a stunning and friendly wee snakie.. oh I miss her so so much

Sorry,
xxx

Well all I have to say is:

You have been caught out Jenny (Sziren)...

I KNOW Lacey is alive and well, not DEAD as you told me!!!. I knew it months ago but only just got the confirmation of pictures of her with her new family.

You are nothing but a liar, and why you felt the need to lie to me about something so precious as her I will never know...

I am utterly astounded and disappointed with you....

Do you know how bad I felt to think that big beautiful girl I sold you was dead? And how worried I was that somehow I sold a sick snake?!

PLUS you sold her to new owners on the premise she was fit to breed. I specifically advised you it may not be a wise idea to breed her as when I did in 2007 she became egg bound but eventually passed all slugs.

I just cannot believe someone could be so inconsiderate. It would have been so much easier to tell me you had just sold her on....

I now know Lacey is well looked after in what seems to be a permenant home. What peace of mind!

Thats crap Elle. I cant understand why she would tell it died??? if she wanted to flog it on then why didnt she just do that...sure its not any better but at least its less sinister.

I surpose on the flip side it IS abit of good news after some of the bad stuff youve had happen over the last couple of months

It was wonderful to see her draped around her new owners. I won't post the pictrue I was sent due to her new owners right to confidentiality, but if he wants to post it I am sure he will lol.

I have contacted Jenny, and I hope she sees this. I also hope other people see this thread, incase she has told lies to other people!

I just cannae believe some people. Lacey was obviously just the flavour of the month...

Don't really understand that one?

Telling you it died(if it really had) would be worse than saying you'd sold it IMO!

At least you know the snakes OK!

What stings most is she would have rather sold me she died than WAIT a few weeks for me to raise money to buy her back. She must have been that desperate to buy her next royal python....

I asked her before I sold her that if she ever wanted to sell her, to contact me first and I would buy her back asap! She did agree to that as well...

I thought I knew Jenny. Wonderful charming lady when you meet her. Seemingly passionate about her animals, yet buys and sells willy nilly. I just don't understand why she would lie about something like this. I never for a second though she would do this either... I am EXTREMELY fussy about who I sell to...
