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.

FedEx Question
I wanted to see if anyone knows if I can ship FedEx overnite for reptiles, but have a No Signature Required on the package? My buyer said sometimes the Fed Ex driver beats her home by 5 or 10 minutes......I am Fed Ex certified too as of recently.
Thanks for the advice!
Chris

Yes you should. I just sent a box tuesday and they gave me the option. I think I picked "no signature".

A better plan, when practical, is to have the package held for pickup at FedEx.
A) it complies with the business to business wording of the waiver
B) it still gives you the security of being able to show that the package was accepted
C) it eliminates truck time (in cold or hot weather, even with climate controlled trucks, I consider this a good thing)
D) it's cheaper - you save the signature charge (but the box still gets signed for), you save the residential delivery charge, and you can ship Overnight Standard to a FedEx staffed facility and still have it there the same time as Priority (I don't trust using Standard when shipping to FedEx Office/Kinkos)...typical savings is $7-10

None of my drivers ever require a signature for anything. They knock and run. So even if you pay that little bit of extra for a signature, it doesn't mean they'll actually wait for a signature. I think it has to do with the house having a signature release on file.
