He has not arrived yet. I think I got scammed :'(

Yikes!! did she send you an air way bill? Or any information about his flight? How was the macaw "shipped"??

How did you send the money?

They changed the picture since then. I have the pictures from the e-mail

 

[getwozzy]

I hope they realize that's NOT a picture of a B&G lol

Some people....

Did you give her any of your personal information???

 

[JadeC]

It's not? Lol

 

[CheshireGrymm]

Because of the price, the shipping company, as far as i know, is sketchy as hell. The macaw was "shipped" by http://www.eata-transport.hpage.com

I guess even people you speak to over skype are untrustworthy.

 

[CheshireGrymm]

I feel so freakin stupid....

There's a blue and gold here for adoption. I think it's 12 or so years old and sweet as can be.

 

[CheshireGrymm]

How much is the owner adopting him out for?

 

[JadeC]

I think $1000

 

[CheshireGrymm]

More money than I have...-sigh-

A lot of those ads can not be trusted especially when they want you to wire money. Plus the price is too good to be true. If it was that low someone locally would of claimed it. Cause if I have a macaw going that low I wouldn't be doing shipping.

 

[CheshireGrymm]

Live and learn, i guess. My husband is making it up to me by getting a red-bellied for me next week. (Some of you might remember my post of "what kind of bird is this?" With him sitting on top of my head)

 

[MikeyTN]

Good luck getting the new baby! Have you contacted the breeder I told you about?

 

[CheshireGrymm]

Yes! I spoke with her yesterday over the phone and she is wonderful! Very friendly. I will be getting a Mini Hahns from her in the spring!

 

[Terry57]

So sorry that the macaw didn't work out for you, but I think you were meant to have the little Red Bellied

 

[CheshireGrymm]

I just really hope he is still there next week! Im trying to raise the money so I can get him sooner! Not working out

 

[MikeyTN]

Someone else answered the phone other then James???
