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.

Shipping retics
Hello folks,
I'm trying to understand the current legal issues surrounding selling retics. I see some posts saying pickup only and others offering to ship. I remember seeing on youtube a while ago a video about legislation (dumb legislation) that prevents selling state to state. I'm not here to bust anyones chops or point fingers just trying to get some info on the legality of me purchasing an animal.
Thanks!

As it stands now (retics ony):
- Only someone who was a USARK member as of 04/08/2015 may ship or transport a retic across state lines.
- No one, whether a USARK member or not, may ship or bring a retic into Texas or Florida due to their state laws.
- Anyone in states other than Texas or Florida may receive a retic from an out-of-state shipper, as long as the shipper was a USARK member as of 04/08/2015.

Also a lot of older retics are listed as "local sales only" because their size makes them expensive to ship.

Thank you! I'm really glad to see an injunction went through. We can only hope that the courts will not succumb to hysteria when it comes time for a final decision. I'm going to donate to USARK in the meantime.

What???
I find it difficult to believe that any legislation, or stay of legislation, singled out USARK members (specific membership date, or otherwise) in its wording. If such wording actually exists, please show it here...if not, please explain why you posted that.

There is actually a paper that members have to have, especially if vending out of state.
