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.

To those who don't use FedEx frequently...
...check and keep an eye on your billing.
I went into my FedEx account today for the first time in 4-5 months in preparation for a shipment. I happen to decide to add a different credit card to my account and accidentally clicked on the billing section. I noticed some silly canadians have been using my account to ship stuff back and forth in the BC. I went to dispute the charge and FedEx would not let me because the last incident was over 60 days ago (03SEPT10). The charges have been going straight to a credit card that I pay little attention to (silly me, I know). No notification was sent to me in an email and nothing to my home. At this point I am furious because they will not let me dispute the charge. I call them up and after a few pissy fits I get the charges removed.
I know this is probably common sense practices for you shipping veterans, but heres the thing... FedEx dumps all the billing information off their site after 60 or 90 days, so if you are billed incorrectly and this time has passed, there is no way to find out on the fedex website. Had I not logged in for another two weeks, I would have never known unless I checked every charge on the card that I put hundreds of charges on every week.
Also, from what I understand, you only need someones account number to ship anything and have it charged to the holders card. Unfortunately, I don't think I will be using fedex again after experiencing their lack security. What if they were shipping drugs or weapons across the border?? I'd be in a heap of ****!
Jeez.

Contact your credit card company and have them dispute the charges.
UPS still ships reptiles.
I'm not a FedEx fan to begin with. I'm sorry you got screwed over by them.

UPS will ship lizards, turtles and amphibians. They just don't allow the shipping of snakes... The post office will also ship lizards and turtles but not recommended because a lot of their places don't Guarantee Overnight delivery! It is illegal to ship snakes through the post office.
