If a seller cannot guarentee live arrival than they should not offer any other option.
But they do guarantee live arrival just not with every shipping option.

The animal is the responsibility of the seller until it arrives at the buyers location.
Assuming there is no hard and fast rule in some seller's hand book somewhere, this must be based upon accepted practices and competition. I have never had an animal come FedEx or any other method the required overnight. I either purchase enough of an inexpensive animal to make Delta worthwhile, buy at shows, or pay for Delta with more expensive animals. I would be hard pressed to blame a seller when given two options, one guaranteed and more expensive, and the other cheaper but no guarantee, when I choose the latter to save money.
