Hi, i recently was looking into buying a royal so i put a classified up on another forum saying that i wanted one. i quickly received a private message from another member telling me to email jamessimpson81@yahoo.co.uk. i did, informing "James" that i wanted one CB06 Female Royal Python for however much he charged, he said that it would be £40 + £15 for courier and that i could send the money to The Snake Room in Mersey side.
he also informed to make a quick transaction as he was moving to America in 2 weeks. (whether this is just a ploy to get the money faster or if it was genuine is anyone's guess) i sent the money, Special Delivery on the Saturday. he received it on Monday and he confirmed this through email. he then said later on in the day, that he had sent the snake out, which usually comes same day, i thought this was a bit optimistic so i expected it Tuesday.
he then emailed me after i sent him several emails asking him where the snake was on Tuesday and said he had missed the last outgoing truck to my part of the country. later on after several more emails he said his fiance sent it out, BUT there may have been a mix up with 4 corns (why he said this is, again any ones guess) but it had definitely been sent out, so i waited and i waited and i waited but still no snake. so i thought, "hey, it may have just been lost in the post" so i asked for my money back, he said that hed send but nope, no money has arrived, or any emails for that matter.
the thing that has gotten me so confused is why he kept responding to my mails after he got the money. he didn't need to. it's weird, but i now know Ive been played by a pro.

DO NOT TRUST JAMES SIMPSON OR THE SNAKE ROOM.
