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.

Roger Mance aka Bootsdabeast(BAD) BEWARE
DO NOT BUY ANYTHING OR TRADE ANYTHING WITH HIM.
I was doing a trade with him, NOT successful in ANYWAY! I didn't ship the herp i was trading as i don't trust anyone and i told him i needed a tracking number before i would ship anything as i have never done business with him before. I sure will never again either, and i just want you all to be aware as well not to deal with him.
He sent my snake UPS ground! I still have yet to get it as it was shipped 4/2/08 and will not be estimated to arrive till 4/8/08. He will NOT respond to ANY of my messages. It's very sickening how someone thinks it's ok to ship an animal over a weeks period of time. Now granted i understand there is a possibilty it will still be alive, but there are only 40 hour heat packs, nite temps in PA have been about 27-35 at most which is WAY to cold for snake anyways, and the heat pack i am SURE there is none haha. So i am more then likely getting a dead snake that should have been OVERNIGHTED like any other normal person would have known!
GRR!!

I just looked up his My Space page and he is a very poorly educated teenager. The odds are that he doesn't know any better than to ship ground.
Hope it arrives alive.

Does this mean you still have the tracking number? Can you post it?

1ZA3424V0349637669--
I spoke with UPS at about 11 am this morning. It is on a semi truck in route to PA but will not be delivered till 4/8/08 is expected date. Now that is the "expected" date she said it could get delayed or take longer as it is on a GROUND truck!

Brizzy, is there any reason (from the point you became aware that this was a life threatening situation for this snake) that you have not requested of a UPS rep that this package be flagged and held at the next nearest hub to be returned back to the sender?
With 4+ days left to go in transit, I think its time to see what you can do to stop this shipment in its tracks.

I don't believe you mentioned what kind of snake is being shipped. If it was a colubrid you might be okay. I certainly was a piss poor way of shipping. Besides being against UPS policy, everything should be sent next day, like you said.

I would really like to hear from the seller. Has he been notified of this thread?
Did you tell UPS that this was a live animal and it needs to either be stopped and sent back to the sender immediately or forwarded to you via air frieght ASAP so it doesn't die?
