I'm so sorry for your loss and this unfortunate experience. I personally would not do business with xyz. I've never heard a single good review about them.
If it were me, I'd take my time and find a reputable breeder. It will be well worth it.
Keep your chin up. You did nothing wrong. This animal was definitely ill before it came to you. Temps being a bit off definitely wouldn't cause the snake to pass. Snakes are much more resilient than many give them credit for. And Kings are some of the hardiest and most forgiving. So don't beat yourself up, it wasn't your fault.
The only thing I'll offer moving forward is to follow strict quarantine moving forward. I honestly don't know enough about lizards, but if your snake was sharing a room with your beardie I would monitor the beardie very closely too.
