HI,
Upstate Exotics advertised a snake that was 100% het for yellow Ghost on their web site. This company is owned by Sal & Alison Tornambene.
I asked them before I committed to the purchase if this in fact was a 100% het for Yellow Ghost. Alison from upstate Exotics then replied yes on 03/28/03. I then emailed her after she confirmed it was 100% het with papers and allow the payments to be extracted from my Visa debit account on 03/28/03. On 03/28/03 Upstate Exotics took out $100.00 dollars as a down payment.
I emailed her on 04/01/03 to make a $80.00 payment. Upstate Exotics took out the $80.00 dollars on 04/01/03. On 04/06/03 I emailed upstate Exotics to make a $50.00 payment. I then received this email.

I was going through my paperwork this morning. I cannot find the paperwork for this het ghost. I found all the other het papers except this one. I'm not sure if I had sent it out by mistake, but I know for sure this is het for yellow ghost from Corey Estill. Please let me know if you are still interested. I can take off $50 for the mix up if you're still interested, if not I can refund you the money.
Sorry about the confusion.
Thanks!!!
