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 Boxes
Where do you guys get your boxes for shipping? I've been shopping around and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

Shipping boxes
I get mine from Scales, www.exoticlizards.com-Also Superior has them, www.superiorenterprise.com and they offer free shipping with a min $50 order. I also get all my deli cups from them as well they are both really great to deal with!

Superior Enterprise is good
We use Superior Enterprise. I like the free shipping on orders of $50 plus. I found their prices to be less than most and the order gets sent quite quickly (within a couple days).

Yes with enterprise
I order one day and I get mine the very next day, customer service is great as well. The same with Wendy at Scales. I have never had any problem with either company when shipping these boxes purchased from them!

Do you think $3-$4 is expensive for just one insulated box? Would it be cheaper to cut the styrofoam yourself and put it in a box that is only 80 cents? Or is that a real big hassle and worth the extra money?

If your shipping just one box, once in a great while then it's much more cost effective (if you can find a local source) to build your own.
If your shipping on a regular basis then you can buy in bulk (lowering the price per box especially where shipping is concerned) and the savings in time and the confidence your customer feels when receiving a professional looking box is worth the expense.
