What is the point of this thread? tons of people ship snakes via UPS
|
From the UPS Website:

Also, if she admits to deceiving UPS, kind of calls into question anything she says to you as well... |
Sorry but tons of people use UPS to ship for various reasons, doing so does not make someone a "bad guy" as long as they accept responsibility for any issues that may arise from doing it.
|
Since it clearly violates UPS policy and you have to be intentionally deceitful in order to ship that way, yes it does validate a bad guy thread. Policy violations and deception are key ingredients to every single bad guy thread here.

Her choice has to include legal options and UPS clearly does NOT allow it, yet she will ship it anyway. Yes, indeed, bad guy there.
It may in fact be violating a law to be deceptive in shipping, i.e. intentionally mislabeling. Can I infer from your posts that you too ship snakes in violation of a standing policy? If so I respectfully request that you stop immediately. The rights of all other responsible parties may be affected by such a callous disregard of policy. Perhaps UPS decides to no longer ship ANY animals? Would you still condone shipping via UPS? |

Honestly choosing a shipping method does not make them a "bad guy". How the animal is packed, treated, condition etc, if those are really bad then yes bad guy. But from my experience there isn't a shipping company out there that has full agreement to ship and guarantee live animal cargo other then Delta Dash. Even if you're certified. I would say yes, exercise caution in a deal where you know nothing of the seller but don't label them a bad guy unless it's truly warranted. |
Shipping a snake via UPS, as mentioned by a few, is a violation of their policy...though when people are crying the blues because the company doesn't want to change their policy, why be supportive of those that choose to violate it?
On the other side of things, intentionally mislabeling the package IS a violation of Federal law. I thought that part was pretty commonly known and accepted as fact. |
Hum.
Also from the emails looks like she'll ship reptiles when it's below freezing, which I wouldn't really call being concerned for their safety. |
