Nikki - I would be furious as well. I think I would tell her that I was questioning the quality of her birds, but her integrity is starting to speak for itself. And I'd be glad to return the bird as soon as she sends the refund plus shipping and handling for the bird. This was HER mistake. Remind her of that and go ahead and tell her that if she isn't willing to make her mistake right then you will start a complaint through PayPal and they will help you. AND if that doesn't get her motivated then I would follow thru with PayPal AND I would tell her that you have many folks on BYC asking who in the world she is so that we don't buy from her - you may be inclined to share her name and email address. Now that's just my opinion, I don't take to kindly to people who take advantage. She sold you a poor pet quality bird and it seems to me that you paid for top show quality. It is her fault she's in this mess but I don't think it was a mistake. I think she knew what she was sending you and she didn't care. If I'd made that terrible mistake, I'd be very quick to make it right and I would be most apologetic. So, this is just my 2 cents and the way I'd probably handle the situation. Not saying that is the best way, maybe someone else will have a better idea but it makes my blood boil and I'd be speaking with my temper. You know, she'd be lucky to have you keep her cross beaked bird. I've had one little bantam like that and I gave it away to someone as a pet. I certainly wouldn't breed it as it is either genetic or caused from a virus - either way it's not a good thing to have. Do your research, find some articles online and send them to her. You may need them for a PayPal complaint anyway. I'd be proving to her that she is wrong on all accounts.

I did reply with, "How have you tried to work with me? Yes, you are willing to ship me a new bird, but at my expense. And, Yes you will give me a refund if I return the bird. Neither option seems fair to me. Either way I loose and that doesn't seem right. And, this really seems fair to you?"

Again I've researched fling disputes on PayPal: It must be done fast (45days), and the dispute can only me for goods and services. I tried to file a dispute tonight, but it says I did not buy goods or services. Go figure? I think I'm screwed.

I really really want to bash this woman!! I'm thinking of posting a warning page on my website to warn others of this woman. That's what I really want to do!!

UGH! I've never filed with PayPal so I have no idea how that works. Did you pay with a credit card? You might have some recourse through that. I really hope this woman steps up and does the right thing. Can I ask how you found her? CL,ebay, newspaper? Just curious.

Hi Pokey!
We have met before. I came and bought some of your chickens. The Polish went to another person but I still have the buff Orp hen I got from you. She wears a pink tag so I call her Pinky. She has always been a super sweet gal and a great pet.
I bet you stay busy with your little one growing up so fast. Running around and keeping you running after him!

She can refund you $50 but cannot go ship a new bird? I understand wanting her bird back, sort of. However I do NOT understand why she is putting that expense on you.

If I sold a bird and the customer was not happy because of an error by me, I would have done anything possible to make it right. I am a witch sometimes, but cannot stand the thought of making an error like that.

If you ask me, you weren't questioning her integrity, just asking her to make HER error right.
