Everyones rates went up some companies alot more than others. With my FedEx account if I ship online I get an aditional 10% off all my shipments.

Here's the trick...

Okay, if you ship with U.S.P.S. it's perfectly legal for cold blooded animals, excluding snakes and turtles. Express, when gauranteed to be there next day by 12 or 3 is the way to go. I pay no more than 25.00 overnight using them and if they are late by one minute you get shipping back. I ship bearded dragons and they adults with heat pack and insulated box weigh less than 2 pounds usually and that's $17.85! There is also a trick to ge them to be late and get your shipping back every single time, but I can't tell you that one yet.......it's perfectly legal.

That's fine for lizards but you cannot ship snakes USPS.
Crazy if you ask me. It's perfectly legal to ship a gator USPS but it's illegal to ship a corn snake.

I think that is for USPS priority shipping charges. The package is not guaranteed overnight & usually takes 1-2 days.

Hi...Sorry to butt in, but the more you try to get your shipping money back, the more USPS isn't going to want to ship your shipments. I raise poultry, and we ship USPS, and if the animal is in good health, even if it's late, we try to tell people NOT to complain, because we don't want to go back to paying $100+ to ship birds through the airlines. Just keep that in mind, please. To save a little money now, you may be cursing the next generation into paying for it BIG time...
