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'm not certain, but if it's anything like the "saver" packages I recieve in at work, it means, "Yeah, well, we'll try to get it there sometime the next day....but if not that day, it'll probably get there the next day after that".
See.....they don't specify which day it's next to. LOL.

WOW!
I guess UPS rates have gone up a lot since the new fuel surcharge.
I just did a quote and got a rate of $40.52 for saver and almost $80 for regular overnight.

Since we normally had animals shipped to us marked "HOLD FOR CUSTOMER" at the nearest hub, we always used Next Day Air Saver. The animals were unloaded and ready to be picked up by the time the office opened at 8:00 a.m.

The saver really didn't make much of a difference. The animal got here at 1pm so it wasn't really at the end of the day like the site says.
Of course it would have been nice if he was really a she like I bought and I wasn't too thrilled with the packing.
