Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Ship Your Reptiles
Hi Everyone,
I am currently shipping with Fedex and as soon as I take the package to be shipped I get hit with a higher bill then what was quoted on there online system so my question is I just made an account with SYR does that mean I can ship through them still having a Fedex account and get shipping cheaper now and just drop the package(s) at the fedex location and my package would still get to it's destinantion safe?Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Daidra

If you are getting hit with a higher bill, double check how you are inputting the information...
For example, are you getting a quick quote, or a detailed quote? Are the box measurements you are entering correct? (even a slight overage is rounded up, so a 12x8x6 box may come up as a 13x9x7).
The weight you use may not matter, as dimensional weight is usually the default...unless you go over that. When you are checking online, are you checking the residential delivery box, and signature box (if you are requiring a signature)? There is an addition fee for both of those things....and it doesn't matter if a person is running a home business - a home is a residential delivery.

Yes, everything is the same (input the shipping info, print the shipping label, drop package off at Fed Ex) except that you are shipping using SYR's account, not your account.

No problem. It's not as large a savings as before when they were set up though UPS; but even a few dollars per shipment does add up! :-)

Contact your rep with your concerns about the bill difference. Your discount might be miss-applied some how.
