Would you complain?

[fur-mum]

I would rather not unless I exhaust all other options. I don’t want to make her a target.

You don't have to make her a target, but if she's taking advantage of people and you have the opportunity to protect them or at the very least make them aware of the risk they are taking...

 

[Shamo Hybrid]

Yes. Bad sellers should be called out, to protect future customers of hers.

Supposedly I am the only problem she has ever had. I am not crazy am I? these really aren’t pure bred birds right?

 

[rebrascora]

No I reread all messages and the PayPal. I didn’t agree to that at all. And now she is telling me that these probably aren’t her eggs and if I tell her name on her she will get me booted from the group. Who knows an admin I can reach out to? She is acting like I am all hateful and I just want her to make this right?

So you have now had a response to your complaint then??
@Yorkshire Coop ... Kim can you advise on the OP's situation or suggest someone who can advise? Are they allowed to name and shame if they have given the seller the opportunity to make this right and they are not only refusing but threatening the OP with having them kicked off BYC if they do?

@daniduck I think you are well within your rights to leave a negative review of this seller. You clearly did not get Blue Laced Red Wyandottes which are what you say you ordered. Hang fire on naming and shaming here until we hear back from admin.

To answer your question @rebrascora
No it’s not good form to call out members in open forum. We ask that this does not happen but members can leave seller feedback on their profile.
ETA ~ No member can get another member kicked off.

I’ve just been back and edited it. Sorry!

 

[daniduck]

Well that makes me feel better that I can’t get kicked off. Can I leave negative reviews when the purchase was carried out through PayPal?

 

[Yorkshire Coop]

Feedback can be left on profiles like below ~
