HI EVERYONE,
WELL, I WISH I HAD BETTER NEWS BUT I'LL LET YOU KNOW ALL THAT I DO.
UPS HAS DECIDED THAT THEIR POSITION IS GOING TO BE TO
HANDLE EACH SHIPPER ON A "INDIVIDUAL" BASIS. THEY BASICALLY SAID THAT THEY ARE GOING TO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO NOT LET SOMEONE SHIP REPTILES WITH THEM IF THEY FEEL THEY ARE NOT SHIPPING IN A RESPONSIBLE MANNER. THERE HAS BEEN A FEW INCIDENTS OVER THE PAST
6 MONTHS THAT I WAS UNAWARE OF THAT THEY INFORMED ME ABOUT. I BROUGHT UP OF THEIR PREVIOUS LAWSUITS AGAINST THEM FOR ALLOWING CERTAIN COMPANIES TO SHIP AND NOT OTHERS GIVING ONE A MARKET EDGE. THEY HAVE PREVIOUSLY LOST OR SETTLED OUT OF COURT ON ALL OF THESE THAT I KNOW OF. THEY SAID THEIR LAWYERS FELT THAT IN THE FUTURE AS LONG AS THEY ALLOWED "RESPONSIBLE SHIPPERS" TO USE THEIR SERVICE
THAT THE ISSUE WOULD NOT COME UP AGAIN. IT MAY COME UP FOR POLICY REVIEW AGAIN IN THE FUTURE OR IT MAY NOT. I WISH I HAD BETTER NEWS BUT I FEEL I'M AT THE END OF A LOOOONG ROAD RIGHT NOW AND DONT SEE ANY FORKS IN IT. I APPOLOGIZE IF I GOT ANYONES HOPES UP AND I'M SORRY I DIDNT GET BETTER RESULTS FOR THE HERP INDUSTRY. IF I CAN COME UP WITH ANY OTHER IDEAS ETC...
I ASSURE YOU I WILL CHECK THEM OUT.
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THEIR SUPPORT AND EMAILS AND
AGAIN I'M SORRY I COULDNT DO MORE.
GOD BLESS TO ALL OF YOU!
