What a scumbag!!

[Ben0918]

if you want to get ripped off buy reptiles and amphibians from Kendrick Zoo. Charles Kendrick who is the owner is doing everything possible not to give me my money back on frogs i bought off him and died less than 24 hours later!! They go to the Manchester, NH expo and Braintree, MA expo so watch out for this scumbag!

If you don't mind me asking what did you buy and did all of them die?

[Ben0918]

I bought 3 red eyes tree frogs which were "captive bred"... Found out they're not so right there I wasn't happy. I am not a new frog keeper I had multiple years experience, so when I woke up the next
morning ALL 3 are dead! Then he try's to blame me! I bought them for $15 a piece and he only wants to give me $30 back.

Sorry to hear.

But i think calling out to someone being a scumbag without him being able to defend himself isn't the way in my opinion.
It is sad they died all 3.
But his point of view i can understand as well.
What are the odds, 3 frogs dying within 24 hours?

I had this with selling my offspring as well, multiple times.
Once i got a mail about frogs dying, since i had plenty, i told him to come by and pick new ones.
After a couple of days, same thing.
Gave frogs for the third time in just 2 weeks.
After a couple days more, again i got mailed that he wanted money back since they were dying again.
Now i had more of them, all doing great.....
I told him i was sorry, but i didn't give him any more frogs.
If he called me a scumbag somewhere i wouldn't like that at all.
I'm sure the frogs were OK when i passed them on.

I even noticed someone i gave replacement frogs selling them, along with the "dead" ones a couple of months later.....

The allowance to give back money on 2 out of 3 frogs seems fair to me.

For example, how did you transport them?
Did you use a proper box to transport them, how long were they in there, what was the temperature during transport etc.
Again, i am not calling you a liar, but if i'd hear about 3 out of 3 frogs dying while the rest i have are all doing just fine, i would have my doubts as well and giving a refund of 2/3 is not bad in my opinion.
I bought frogs myself dying on me during transport, but i didn't get a refund as well, instead i could buy new ones for reduced prize, that was OK with me.
Frogs can be delicate, some more then others, it's not always the blame of the seller, just to say.

If they were sick already, you should have noticed it while seeking out the ones to buy.
Since you took them, i suppose nothing seemed wrong about the frogs?
I think a scumbag is someone deliberately selling you bad frogs...

the reason why he's scumbag is he did everything possible not to give me my money back. Ive been fighting for my money for a month now. and also his "assistant" said the head guy personally breeds them... later i found out that they're wild caught. if i new that in the first place i wouldn't even bother buying them.

Hi Ben,
Could please send me a link to the business in which you purchased your 3 red eyed tree frogs from.
Many Thanks, Lynn
