Here’s what consumers have asked with answers from BirdsNow staff and previous consumers.
Buyers beware! DO NOT buy birds from out is state. You are going to get ripped of. If the prices are too cheap and they sound too good to be true, they probably are. This is an organized crime. Some don't even have a bird for sale. They keep asking you for your email so they can send you pictures and more information as they claim. What they are actually trying to do is identity theft by opening their attachment. Quite often the state they claim to be in does not match their area code. Instead of buying cheap birds out of state just pay a little more and buy them from the local breeders in your own state. Do not fall for $500 Hycinth macaws or Toco Tucans in other websites like pets. Oodle. They are mostly scammers.
Pay through a site like PayPal. PayPal allows you to make a paper trail and makes the buyer commit before you send anything or they send anything. PayPal also will create an invoice. If there is an issue or fraud, it can be submitted to PayPal as an unpaid item dispute or to your bank as proof for a reimbursement.
