Boy, this is sure the truth. I'm amazed that a seller would dare take the 
chance of burning a buyer. It looks like a big bird world but it is smaller 
than anyone can believe. If you try hard enough you can check out almost any 
breeder to make sure you're dealing with someone reputable.
The fellow who bought my baby who died from the burst blood vessel in the 
brain is getting another baby gratis. I didn't HAVE to do it but reputation 
is EVERYthing in the bird "business".
