About to Change My Mind!

This guy is seriously getting on my
nerves, i spoke with him yesterday and he
said he would call after lunch today, to
let me know when he could deliver the
puppy, its 4pm i called 3 times no answer,
i am about to when i can get a hold of him
tell him nevermind and i will look
somewhere else since he seems to have
problems communicating with people or
following through. I am getting really
annoyed now about it. hopefully he calls
back or comes by or something. If he says
he cant do it tomorow i will ask if he
even knows if he can, cuz there are other
places to get a puppy here.

.i think if he's giving you such a run
around I'd go elsewhere. Maybe he's
scamming you? But you are the customer to
him, and he should be doing everything he
can to please you!!! I would definately
go elsewhere. Were you specifically
looking for a lab, or was this guy the
first one you came across? I have a bad
habit of impulse buying (.i.e, .daisy) and
I don't regret it, but I would shop around
a bit and see. Maybe you can even get a
cheaper one, and then you could spend more
on puppy toys! I love puppy shopping

at first we were thinking german shepard,
then labs are more family oriented dogs
and i fell in love with the chocolate
labs. there is another person that might
have a chocolate lab, im waiting to see if
this guy calls me back ive called him prob
10 times and the last time it was al of a
sudden busy. so i dunno im gonna ask if i
do get a hold of him if he plans on
dropping it off anytime soon, and if he
doesnt know then i will tell him to forget
it, it just irritates me since i got the
money and all the puppy supplies already
here. And the fact he said he would call
this afternoon after lunchtime and now its
15 minutes until 6pm. If i have to i will
call the paper and tell them to remove his
name and number from the paper since he
isnt someone i would want anyone giving
business too since he is a poor business
person. its not worth the effort or time.

Yeah, I would check out the other person
while waiting for this guy to call you
back. Or sometimes they have little ads
on bulletin boards at grocery stores and
such. But this guy doesn't deserve your
money.

he called back finally, he seemed very mad
but he said he was gonna call in the
afternoon. He said maybe monday or
tuesday, because he says its a far drive
and his wife didnt feel like driving here
and he would be too tired to do it alone.
Im looking into other places but they seem
to want more for the chocolate lab then
the price he has told us. its just
seriously getting on my nerves. he said he
was in stockholm(sp) and i tried looking
it up on mapquest but i cant find it .

Hmmm, they are too tired to make a sale?
sounds like a poor excuse. I'd be very mad
if I were you too.
Edit*
Where are you in .germany? I'll see if I
can find how far it is.

Hmm, it doesnt really sound like they want
to sell the puppy to you. I hate getting
the run around from people, but if he
really wanted to sell the puppy he would
have contacted you sooner. He says Monday
or Tuesday, but what happens when that
comes around.....I agree he doesnt deserve
your money, even though you really want
the puppy and he has the best price it
shouldnt be this difficult. I would be
irritated too. See what happens on Monday
if you havent found someone else already.

yeah i realize he is quite far away , he
never said where he was located till
earlier. so i take that into
consideration, im gonna email him to
verify the prices he told me over the
phone and see what happens on monday or
tuesday. There is another one i contacted
to find out prices and delivery costs as
well. So we will see what happens.

yeah so i dunno it seems odd the price he
told me wich is why im verifying, cuz i
found a stockholm, in sweden! thats a 14
hr drive and he said it was 500 euro for
the dog and 50 euro to deliver it wich
thinking for how far he is 50 euros doesnt
seem like much to deliver it . I just hope
he emails back so far the only email i
have received from him is the picture of
the puppy. But he also told me the first
few times i spoke with him that he could
deliver to our home since we dont live on
the military base we live offbase near it.

well he emailed right away wow what a
suprise. But the price is correct so maybe
i should be patient, because if it were me
i wouldnt look forward to that drive
either. But the other person was wanting
near 1,000 american dollars for a black
lab cuz thats all he had left and that
aint happening lol. this is near 700. i
have 550 euro for it in my purse. The
drive is almsot the same as me driving
from nc to fla wich ive done a few times
and i hated doing it alone.

I guess now that we know its a long drive,
we can cut him a lil slack, lol. It seems
like a good price for delivery for that
amount of driving. I just hope it all
works out next week

I will pray for you to get your puppy. I
have never had a dog before and I hope
someday I can have one, I really want one.
I don't like waiting for things
either...then again some things are worth
the wait. Hopefully the puppy will be
exactly what you expect.

It sucks that you got your hopes up and
this guy hasn't followed through with it.
Is there any way that you could meet him
1/2 way?

not me. my husband possibly, i only know
how to ge tto regensburg wich isnt to far
from me but still not even close to half
way. my husband knows how to get to like
frankfurt wich is like 3 hrs away. hes
better with directions here then i am.
This guy i beleive breeds dogs. and he is
in the paper here on base. If he didnt
wanna deliver puppies he shouldnt put his
name in the paper. so im really hoping
that he can do it early this week.
