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.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
Fish and Wildlife Service
50 CFR Part 14
RIN 1018-AD98
Humane and Healthful Transport of Wild Mammals, Birds, Reptiles
and Amphibians to the United States
AGENCY: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
Quote:
The Service also acknowledges that the IATA system of listing and
naming species is inconsistent with that of CITES, for which only the
species' scientific name is official, for listing purposes.
Nevertheless, the Service chose to use IATA's system of naming animal
species, a combination of common English and scientific names, for two
reasons. First, shippers transport both CITES-listed and non-CITES
listed species. Second, the Service wanted the proposed rule to be as
consistent as possible with the IATA regulations, the international
industry standards, for the convenience of shippers and carriers.

"The Service" refers to the US Fish and Wildlife Services, and IATA refers to International Air Transport Association Live Animals Regulations.

I've done 2 shipments with Reptster and both have been flawless for me. I saved $15 on each shipment with no problems at all!

What do you mean Harald? Is it making the weight and size larger?
BTW, I am in the process of setting up my account with them, everything sounds great so far. And David seems to be a nice guy and seems to be on top of things.

I only use the 12X9X6 boxes and it does up the size on me to 13X10X7 and I always type in 4 pounds and it changes it to 5 pounds but it is still cheaper.I check the Fed-Ex rates with my verified account then I check reptster and always come out better.
And I don't have to pay for boxes anymore.We have had great luck with it.
Last night we shipped one from here in South Carolina to California the Fed-Ex price for Priority overnight was $72.00 through Reptster the same package went for $54.00
Thanks David this service is great.And you are always more than helpful.
