That same seller got me too. On 3 auctions & over 40.00. What a rip off. I left bad feedback too, & filed a claim with ebay & paypal, but it was too late.

Could someone PM me and let me know this seller's real name? I fear I may have been had, too.

I'm really sorry to hear that but from the number of auctions that seller had going there are probably hundreds of us I hope you get your money back keep us posted, She got me for over 60$ and I'm not rich thats a lot of money to throw away. I'd love to meet her in a dark alley
As for ILOVEFRIZZLES I am glad to see you post its nice to know you stand by your product and your willing to speak up. there is no need for folks to rob one another we all just gotta meet in the middle, if you keep up the good customer service I'm sure you'll do well.

I am glad you got your money back! ILOVEFRIZZLES you are correct that the PO is very hard on eggs. I received that info straight from the source (someone who works in the Post Office) What they described to me just made me shake my head in disbelief. It is a miracle any shipped eggs hatch at all.
That being said, I have received many shipped eggs (in fact most) that do great. I guess it just depends on how the eggs were packed and who is handling your eggs during shipping.
If a seller receives eggs that they know are packed well then I don't honestly think a refund should be expected. Any seller who does so has my respect and gratitude (not to mention return business and referrals!)

I got shipped eggs from Scott (ozarkbantams). I have never seen eggs packed so well. They all were in perfect condition. I give my hats off to him. If I buy any more eggs, I will buy from him.

I'm out money from Cluck_duck_goose too. Some rare eggs. I kept listening to her reassurances that they were coming. Now I'm out my money and the eggs too. To say that I'm upset is an understatement.

I was getting Sicilian Buttercups, Russian Orloffs, and another one that I can't think of at the moment. Seems as though she made quite a bit of money and then ran.

I'm glad it worked out for you. As for packaging everyone says bubble wrap and shipping peanuts. I'm no longer sure that this is the best way to ship. Bubble wrap prevents the eggs from breathing and may suffocates them. I've just received a shipment that used egg cartons and pine bedding. I was first skeptical, but I'm now a believer. What the shipper did was put pine bedding into the eggs cartons as well so the eggs would not move. Then she did put pine bedding into the box nice and tight. Again no movement. My priority mail box arrived and had a 4" hole smacked in the side with a small hole in the center of it. Something punctured it while in transit. The clerk said that the sorting machines are a problem. The machines don't care for fragile stickers. Most postal clerks will handle them nicely with the stickers on, but again it is the machines. Anyway I had one broken egg where the puncture was, but best none of the other eggs were contaminated because the pine bedding absorbed the shock and the egg content. Shipping peanuts would have not done this and I would have had a mess. I wish I had taken pictures. So here is the verdict as of day 5 in the incubator. 18 eggs where shipped and one was broken. 15 eggs are showing blood vessels developing. 2 are in question, but I'm leaving them in the incubator for now. Now I call that good fertility even with bad postal treatment. Oh, I forgot to mention that the box had a postal sticker on it saying they x-rayed it. Apparently the x-rays are not a problem at all.
