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.

Bobby at Reptile Basics--customer service done right
The measure of a good business and its customer service is how they treat customers when things don't go quite right. Reptile basics gets an A+ for a recent issue I had with a VE-6 rack I ordered.
The rack arrived with one of the PVC shelves broken from an impact during shipping. A side panel was cracked as well. I notified RBI right away and documented with images. Bobby offered to send replacement panels, screws, and even the proper drill bit immediately. I had a FedEx tracking number a few hours later and the panels arrived a few days after that. Disassembling the rack and putting the new shelves in was a breeze.
The rack is up and humming with a bunch of 2017 ball pythons in it right now.
So in summary--easy to do business with made right on an issue I had.
Cheers,
Gabriel Gartner

Second the good guy comment
I have done a fair amount of business with reptile basics and they have been fantastic every step of the way. Even when problems have come up with shipping they have never failed to make it right. Bobby and I have done a fair amount of communicating back and forth and he certainly knows his products and is genuinely concerned with his customers getting the products that will best fit their needs. A+ service and products, I have racks and cages, hide boxes, and thermostats and have used them in a broad spectrum of situations.

I have twelve of the Reptile Basics heat panels of various sizes and after some remodeling will be adding five more. I wouldn't think of using any other ones. ... 100% satisfaction with the panels and the customer service.
I recently got two new ones and at first thought I ordered the wrong item as the new ones are not white and do not have the red 'ON' light like my older ones .... but still the same great panel.

I have ordered supplies from Reptile Basics on several occasions, and it has always been a good transaction.

Back when I first started this thing, we kept snakes in aquaria with a red light bulb above, and then I return after 20 years...I had no clue how to house baby animals in racks. RB talked me through how to set my newest acquisitions up, and they are thriving. They talked me through heating, thermostats, tape, and I am sold. I know this revelation seems silly to most, but this is such a departure for an old fool...and yet they respond to everything I ask them. They have my business for as log as I keep snakes.

I too ordered a Vivarium VE-6 rack and it was damaged in shipping. Same thing, broken side panel and one shelf. Bobby got the parts out ASAP!! I actually placed 3 different orders in the same week and he refunded me shipping for 2 of them.

Has anybody heard from RB lately? I've called and emailed with no response ,which appears to atypical of their reputation.

I emailed them a couple days ago about a tub that is out of stock and got an email back the next morning.

Jim --- I have always had great success with RBI and swear by them, as well as, having written several positive reviews .. but I too recently (few months back now maybe) emailed them about some supplies and never got a response back either .. perhaps a high volume time for them .. though they always got back to me immediately and took care of any problems faster than anyone else I have ever dealt with .. so not sure what might be going on!?
