Please review all of my policies
carefully before making a purchase. OzzyBoids encourages feedback
and suggestions from any and everyone. The goal here is to ensure
a fair transaction for both parties.
GENERAL POLICIES
At OzzyBoids
every effort will be made to ensure your transaction is a positive
one. Emails and phone calls will be answered promptly and customers will be treated with respect.
All animals will be
honestly represented and 100% healthy at the time of delivery.
Animals
are guaranteed to be free of mites and ticks at the time of delivery.
Every effort will be made to properly sex animals, but please be
sure to confirm the sex upon receipt. If for whatever reason you are not happy with the animal you receive,
you must notify OzzyBoids within 48 hours for a refund. The customer
will be responsible for all return shipping costs and arrangements.
Animals must be returned 100% healthy at the earliest possible shipping
date. The animal may be held in quarantine upon return for a few
days to ensure it is healthy before refunding the cost of the animal.
It is the customer's responsibility to learn how to properly care
for the animals they purchase. OzzyBoids can not take responsibility
for a person's lack of knowledge or poor husbandry skills. If OzzyBoids
determines that a customer lacks the proper experience or facilities
to care for an animal, the transaction will be terminated.
GENETIC GUARANTEES
YOU CAN TRUST Every
heterozygous (het) gene carrier produced here at OzzyBoids is immediately photographed and
assigned a unique ID code. Your invoice will come with a
photographed certificate detailing the genetics of any heterozygous animals you
purchase. I have photo archives of every het I have ever
produced or sold. My guarantee is for the life of the animal
even if you decide to sell it. I will verify the genetics of
any animal I sell 1, 2, or even 10 years later as a service to my
customers. This way your animal will retain it's value and you
will be able to sell it for full value even if you are not a well
known breeder. OzzyBoids is a small operation and I intend
to keep it that way. I DO NOT HAVE ANY EMPLOYEES handling
my hets so you don't have to worry about anybody switching out hets
for normals behind my back.
PAYMENT PLANS
Payment
plans will be made available on a case-by-case basis. Payment plans
will generally be between 1 to 6 months in duration. To hold an
animal OzzyBoids requires a 20% non-refundable deposit. After the
minimum 20% deposit is received the animal/s will be taken off the
market and held for the customer. Animals will be fed and maintained
as usual with no extra charge to the customer. If for whatever reason
the customer can not complete the payment plan as agreed to, all
monies in excess of the 20% down payment will be refunded after
the animal is reposted and sold at current market price as determined
by OzzyBoids. The 20% non-refundable deposit is not transferable
and it is meant to absorb the costs associated with holding and
removing the animal from market.
Terms for reserving
animals before they are produced:
The price
of the animal will be agreed to before hand. Upon receipt of a non-refundable
deposit OzzyBoids will draft an invoice and send it along with a
copy of the terms to the buyer. The terms will detail the sale price,
required deposit, and description of the animal. Once the particular
animals are produced the buyer will be given pick of litter
in the order their reservation was received. OzzyBoids reserves
the right to hold back any animals it deems extraordinary or unusual
in appearance (basically this means I still have first pick).
If
OzzyBoids presents an animal that does not meet the buyers satisfaction,
the buyer may either wait until OzzyBoids produces more of that
particular animal or apply the deposit money towards any other animal
up for sale. If OzzyBoids fails to produce any of the desired animals,
the buyer may apply the deposit money towards any other animal up
for sale. If for any personal reasons the buyer is unable to complete
the deal, the deposit money may be used towards the purchase of
any other animal up for sale.
Once the
buyer selects an animal that OzzyBoids presents the animal will
be held for no more than 60 days to allow the buyer to pay off the
balance. The buyer will have 48 hours to either accept or decline
any animal that OzzyBoids presents. This will allow OzzyBoids to
put the animal up for sale and not hold animals back indefinitely
while the buyer decides on which one to select.
By sending your non-refundable deposit you agree to these
terms.

PRICING AND PAYMENT
OPTIONS
All prices
are subject to change and OzzyBoids should be contacted to confirm
any listed price. As these animals mature and gain weight they also
gain in value. Therefore, prices may be adjusted accordingly. OzzyBoids
will honor any price that was agreed upon during negotiations of
sale. Package deals and discounts are always available at OzzyBoids.
Please email or call for details.
For your convenience, all forms of payment
are accepted at OzzyBoids including all major credit cards, checks, money orders, and
PayPal.
Due to the increase in online fraud, all checks and money orders
will be held for 7 days.
