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.

If you order a lot of boxes, make sure you have storage space.
This order was for only 5 boxes and right now I'm trying to figure out where I am going to store the pieces until they get used.

Hello Steven,
You're absolutely right, my ad nor does my website say anything about them being unassembled. It is my mistake and I'll be sure to include that from now on. I used to sell them assembled. I was spending alot more money on materials and I wasn't making a whole lot, at the time I didn't care so I continued. Then I recieved bad feedback from a customer because they reported the boxes were damaged because they arrived pre assembled. I figured it'd be easier to put them together then to deal with bent up cardboard cartons. As we all know, you can't please everyone.
However, there is something there that you forgot to mention to everyone else. I offer a money back guarantee if you are not pleased with the boxes.
If you are truly dissatisfied maybe you should take that option, but since you are speaking of storing them then you must be satisfied enough to keep them.
I'm sorry to hear that you are unhappy. Let me know what you'd like me to do and I will do my best to fix it.
In the future, I'd appreciate it if you went to me first when you have a problem instead of going public. Just a bit of common courtesy is all.
Thank you for your time and your business. I'd like to thank everyone else for their time as well.

Umm looks like you got boxes and foam liners just like it states. Store them where you planned on storing 5 prebuilt shipping boxes?!?! I am sure that being broken down they take up less space then 5 prebuilt shipping boxes. I am not sure what you are upset about maybe I missed something.

Yeah, exactly. I have about 5 unbuilt boxes at home now, the 12x12x10 size. They take up about 1/3 the space broken down that they would built, at least broken down no space is wasted......built there is a 10x8 empty space in the middle of everyone.
From the pic I don't know if I like that type of foam but that's just from what I can see. How's the density of it? Is it hard or soft?

It is polypropylene foam and yes it is soft. That type of foam is used for insulating, upholstrying cars.
The first time I used it was several years ago during the winter there was nothing else available and I was a newbie so I used that and shipped a bearded dragon w/ a 40 hour heatpack from Texas to Iowa via USPS Express (hey I said I was new). When it went out on Monday it was about 50 degrees in Texas and was expected to arrive Tuesday in 20 degree Iowa weather. It didn't arrive Tuesday or Wednesday. Thursday there was a blizzard and then Friday the temps were near zero degrees.
It arrived alive on Saturday and the box was still warm in fact. This alone proves the box's insulation properties. It also much more dense then your common insulation styrofoam.
My website is www.reptipack.com. My catalog doesn't seem to be working so email for pricing details.
