Question Need help shipping....

I have a man who wants to send me a snake from california. I live in florida. But he wants me to take care of the shipping label and box. He will send it. Since its up for adoption. but he doesnt want to spend a dime. i need to take care of shipping. What info do i need from him apart from the address which i have. And how do i go about it. i really need some help with this tonight.

That is very common with adoptions. If the snake is free, I wouldnt balk about paying shipping costs. I assume you are reimbursing him with paypal? If so, this is a very safe way to exchange funds. Theres really no way he could get away with just taking your money and not sending you the animal he described. All his info should be on his paypal account as well. Good luck with your new cutie!

no no no.....he dont want ANY money. He just Wants the box, the shipping label. THATS it. all he wants to be concerned with is dropping the box off at fed ex for shipping

Usually, he would tell you how much shipping and supplies would be and then you would just front him the money to pay for them. It's much easier for him to get the shipping label and box himself.

I saw this same situation with another customer last week.

SYR user purchased a shipping kit, had it sent to the snake owner's address.

Once the packaging was in hand...

SYR user then booked the shipping label on their account and emailed it to the snake owner. Snake owner packaged it up, attached the label, dropped it off, and SYR user had their snake the next morning.

Just beware- there are a few different ways to flim flam a generous person into sending money, free packaging, snakes, or other valuables through the "I'm broke, you have to help pay for all of this" type scam.
