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.

Apparently, you just need to watch the video on how to ship properly, and then you are allowed to use Repsters service. They have some deal going with fed ex. Although i dont know the details, Im pretty excited for it though! What a genius service!

That is correct. You are certified once you watch the video. I have followed this since its conception and have talked to David Young (one of the creators) personally on the phone and he was more than helpful. I think talking to him or one of his staff if a problem arises would be more of a benefit than talking to Fedex directly to be honest. I havent had good customer service from Fedex in the past. Anyway, try it out and like someone said, the boxes are FREE!!!!! They will even send you a months worth if you are high volume shipper.....

I will be using them for sure. I think it is nice to see something like this. And maybe fedex is starting to open their eyes that the herp community needs a great shipper and will pay for one.....

I know that when I was approached by Reptster, they couldn't save me anything on shipping.
Also.... by using Reptster as a go between for shipping, the shipper is allowed to skip the verification process???
Free box's and donations..... sounds great, but when a shipper runs in a problem and cant deal directly with FedEx...... well GOOD LUCK, and I hope it works out well.

I apologize for your incorrect impression Jim. You can contact FedEx as much as you would like. We are in a third party situation in our partnership. You ship through FedEx, the label is generated by FedEx and FedEx customer services the package just like you shipped it without Reptster. If you have any questions about it or are unsure about anything with shipping please feel free to contact our customer service at 727-388-4633 or you can email me directly at dyoung@reptster.com.
Thanks,
David Young

Incorrect impression ?
I asked you out right, "if I have any problems/issues with a shipment, who would I call"?
You said, "I can't call my FedEx Rep, that I would have to deal directly with Reptster, if I was going to ship thru you, and that I couldn't mention any discounts that you provided to FedEx"

How long ago did you talk to him about this and such? Its possible that things could have changed a bit differently... especially now that things are seemingly chugging along quite nicely?
*shrug* just a thought.

Our conversation took place on May 17th.
If things have changed since then he hasn't said anything.
