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.

Did I get that right? "I used UPS, which is against their policy, and I won't do it until somebody shows me a waiver???"
I have a waiver, btw.

No. Your actions in that video are the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Nobody who actually respects Retics would EVER EVER do what you did. Of Course its going to strike. Thats so obvious its not even funny. The snake is stressed out and you start messing with him. It doesnt know you. All new smells. All new surroundings. Then to add fuel to the fire You are waiving a blanket or shirt or robe in its face. OF COURSE its going to follow you. They are HIGHLY Intelligent animals. They are 100% aware of whats going on. That Video proved you have no idea what you're doing and it makes you look like a simple snake keeper with zero respect for an animal that has been in a box for a long time. On an airplane. Then driven around in a truck. I wonder how you woul reaact if you did that and I started waving a stick in your face. He didnt even strioke till over a Minute in the video. TO me after all that he has been through That is beyond acceptable by that snake. What else can it do? Flee? It was obvioulsy pissed off and you just kept going to prove nothing except how dumb that was.

Did I ship with UPS.....Yes I did.....Did I use Reptile Express or any other reptile shipper.....NO......Why, because when these people start talking about how they have a waiver to ship through UPS, there's always a smokescreen thrown up to divert the attention away. When ever these people are asked to produce PROOF of these waivers, they never do. So If in fact they do have one, post it for all to read, and when/if they do I'll sign up.
How I shipped is nothing new, it's been going on since the damn hobby started, and way longer than these so-called reptile shipping companies been in business. But that is not the topic of this thread, as there are designated threads for that topic. And If you have such a waiver, why not post it in those threads, I know a hell of a lot of members are dying to see it

why dont you guys trade back and call it even and be done with this. it looks to be something on that snake, but unless you pick those off and get an extreme close-up or microscopic picture of them, there is now for sure way to tell those are actual snake mites. they maybe mites in general, but they dont look like true snake mites believed to be responsible for the ibd epidemic. it would be helpful to see pics of the heat, mouth and eye area, as everybody knows a heavy mite infestation, will just about 100% of the time have mites in these areas and many at that.
although on another note, it looks as though money exchanged hands and this was a trade straight up, so i cant figure out why someone would want to post bad things on a trade, there is no money to be had or had back.

You lost me. You knowingly shipped against UPS TOS, and until someone shows you a waiver, you will continue to ship in violation of their policy?

Just for the record, Reptiles Express really DOES provide a waiver and I print out a new one every time I use their services.
