SOOOO Got RIPPED off!

[Mahonri]

crap happens, especially of e-bay.

Even here on BYC.

I once ordered a goodly number of eggs and only 1 of them hatched.

Any time eggs are shipped, you take that chance.

So this is going to sound retarded but I'm still fairly new to posting on BYC does OP mean Original Post?

If you need bantam EE eggs you should contact quailladyoffortmyers. She is in Florida, which isn't all that far, and she is very good at packing eggs. I'm sure you would do well with hers

However I have never shipped eggs and i could tell you the last thing I'd do is ship them upside down... I mean it would feel like kind of a slap in the face

thanks for your money... oh and by the way im going purposely and single handedly ruin any chance of you getting a decent hatch because im to lazy to do alittle research or use some common sense

i've gotten eggs that were packed amazingly but still broke... and i still leave great feed back because it was obvious they tried their best. I seriously would blowing a gasket if I had eggs show up that looked like someone didn't take a few extra seconds to turn either on their side or standing the right direction.

Okay now I need to shut my mouth before anymore unkind words come outta my mouth. My speach is seasoned with salt usually I swear!

Several people think that's how you are supposed to store hatching eggs. I've seen sellers display them like that very often in this area. One guy told me he turns them from pointy-side down to pointy-side up, that's how he rotates them during collection. So I bet he has some pretty crummy hatches.

I bet if we took a poll, you'd find that several of BYC's egg sellers also sell on Ebay. So saying that 'crap happens, especially on Ebay' is not fair.

I've gotten eggs shipped from people on here that were packaged worse than ANY eggs I've gotten off Ebay, but maybe that's just my experience. I would expect BYC members to know better, it's not like they don't have every answer they would ever need right at their fingertips.
