Although it's rare that shrimps will arrive DOA, it does occur due to the process of shipping and the amount of stress it puts on the shrimps so we always recommend overnight shipping. In an event of an DOA, a refund or reshipment will be issued for only the DOA (not including the shipping cost).
To Claim DOA:
Nobody responded to my emails. I never received shipment from over 3 weeks ago. Having to go through credit card company to get money back.
Beware, I think Billy is gone and scammers are running the show.
Edit: I changed my review to 5 stars because he responded to me and offered to send me a replacement for the 2 shrimp. So I have to say that they do honor the satisfaction guarantee.
These pintos are really good looking in a different way, they have some galaxy spots, with some fancy tiger striping towards the tail. I liked them so much I ordered another 5.
This last order I only received 4 out of 5 and the fourth was on it's side when I un-bagged them - so I only have 3 and I'm not getting a response from the seller. Hopefully he makes it right.
Great looking shrimp, well packaged and recieved in good health. Absolutely thrilled with how the patterns have developed so far, can't wait to order more.
