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 had also asked the clerk to scan it in at the PO so that it shows that I mailed them..but they got upset with me saying that I got a discount for printing it online and the next time they refused to scan in for me.
I also realized that even if they check in at the counter, it doesn't mean that they will get there ontime.. or scan it along the way...
ugh..

How about shipping using a method that scanning is mandatory. Yes it may cost just a bit more... but isn't your business worth it?

Scanning it in or tracking will not hurry the package along. There is no delivery time guarantee on priority mail.
Since you continually have problems, your going to have to ditch USPS priority and choose a different delivery method. I have found with the USPS system, you can't complain your way into better/faster service. You get what you get.
I don't think there are many of us that qualify for Power Shipping and the large corporations that do are probably not going to risk their account to let someone else use their account.
If you can't get your product where it needs to be at a cost that your company and/or customer can pay, then you are not going to be profitable with that product.

I would recommend using UPS through Reptiles Express. You get a discounted rate using their account and I have sent out over 15 shipments in the last two weeks of ball pythons and every one of them was delivered on time. I am surprised that they haven't messed up at least one. Fed Ex used to screw up on being on time at least once every 10 or so shipments it seems. Just a suggestion.

yes I did saw that from earlier poster (thanks to the earlier poster) about that, but do you guys use paypal??
I use paypal and with that, I get a pretty good discount with UPS ground.. how does it compare with reptile express/ i hate having to manually write down address or retyping them over. I really like the paypal feature of direct label printing. I keep on having to rewrite my shipping policy. I would like to make my silkworms very affordable to customers.. but I think I may have to just expand my local market instead of going national.. I suppose I can make silkworm pods and go visit all the petstores in the area.. one of them is anxiously waiting for me to visit. I am waiting on my overseas chow that have actually already arrived in NY port for 5 days now but do not know what is the hold up.. sigh.. just one peak after another to climb...
