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.

I guess I'm just stereotyping but I have never heard a "girl" (one who has a 22 year old daughter) call anyone, "A buddy of mine". That would put "her" around my age and none of the "girls" I have ever known speak like that.

A lot of people use DHL i've seen it on reptile auctions like here http://www.reptileauctions.com/aucti...s.php?id=10429
I dont really know this person and dont know if she is good with reptiles or anything but i dont think you should be judging her you dont really even know her. i have 36 corn snakes and ive bought them for like 3 for 80 shipped and ive seen people post in the classifieds for norms that are $10 and 15. You can tell she prefers people shipping with first day because not many people give you a 7 day health guarentee, so what many people like 2nd day it's their choice and everyone has a different opinion. The point is who are you to judge her you make it seem like your just trying to find flaws to pick at her about so you can act like your better than her. Pretty soon you will probably start picking on me because im not as old and experienced as you and I'm new to the forums.
Do you ever really read what you write? Do you really have that bad of a life you spend your time picking at other peoples flaws and jumping to way off conclusions to make yourself seem better, more experienced, older, and more mature? I saw the same stuff always going on in kids forums growing up.
"I would hardly say you acted like a reasonable adult when you responded. Your reaction was that more resembling a kid. " to you too

Who's judging who ????
I would also like to add, that I ship "overnight express" if a customer asked me to ship any other way ... I will not ship. When I ship my concern is not for the customer, it is for the safety of the animal/s being shippied.
If any one chooses to ship 2nd day they should not be in the reptile business.

I give the choice to everyone for 1rst day air, however most people think it is alright to use 2nd day air and choose that instead, I guarantee live arrival 1rst and 7 day health with first day air.

So, if a guarantee is only offered with next day air, it's obvious that she KNOWS that 2nd day air is not a safe choice for the animals. The only people that would choose 2nd day is those who either don't know any better, or aren't concerned with the health and well-being of their reptiles after they leave their hands. I would not buy from someone who even offers 2nd day as an option, nor would I sell to someone who requests an animal be shipped that way.

Don't all international shipments take more than 1 day?
It's understandable that overnight is preferred but I don't think you can dis someone because they use 2nd day sometimes. Depending upon the weather and other conditions it could be ok.
You all are being a little rough on this woman whoever she is. You might not have meant it, but it sounded to me like you were attacking her.

John,

Her quote is not implying international shipment. Nor does DHL allow the shipping of snakes.
