    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Peter, Your story, the details, time-line, emails, etc.. would be great in moving this thread forward.
 
Well I started emailing him late September 2009 and he was always more worried about getting his money first than answering my questions and such. He would only answer my phone calls and/or emails when he was waiting for money to be sent and when I didn't comply contact with him would be very easily accomplished.

Here is a tentative invoice pending your approval.

sub total=$1,127.50
CITES Re-Export Permit $100
USFW Inspection and document preparation $200
Total=$1,427.50

Air Cargo for this size shipment will run $250-$350 But we will bill you for this later when we set up the export.

The re-export CITES permits take 1-2weeks to get and we can ship at that time. Please call me or email me to set up payment via credit card or paypal.

We can provide all the necesarry paperwork for you to import on your end as well and walk you through the process once we get started. We xport around the globe and we can get the animals to you safely.

I only have1 female fischer's so it will have to be 1.1 or 2.1. Everything is WC. The deremensis are LTC. The bearded pygmy and green pygmy are LTC. One jackson's is gravid and several of the pygmy chameleons are gravid as well. We can send the freight collect so you can pay when you pick them up at the airport. As soon as you send paypal we can file for the permits and set up a flight.
Thanks

I spoke with USFW
They are reviewing the application for CITES Re-export and they are going to call me next week when it is done.
Just wanted to keep you posted.

Peter,
The time that USFW takes to clear the permit is out of my hands. It should be ready very soon. As I stated in my last email I will let you know when there is something new to report.

Finally. I just received the re export CITEs permit. This is the un officail copy. The originals CITES docs will be in your shipment. I have to pick up the original at the USFW office tomorrow. Please just confirm your order and I will schedule the inspection and export date that suits you.

Thanks for your patience it usually does not take this long-I think they have been understaffed at this office or something.

Thanks,

Peter, I have sent the airway bill and re export CITES and confirmed that the animals were in stock and ready to ship. You agreed to pay the balance upon receipt of those documents and confirmation which you have not done. I expressed to you via email that this had to be done before inspections and shipping. That was done over a week ago. I would like to complete this transaction as much as you but i can't take the risk of putting everything in motion and paying all the additional fees if the balance is not going to be paid. If there is any shipping information that needs to be change let me know-I will change it and forward it to you.

This is what we need to do to complete the transaction:
1. The balance for the animals and export fees must be paid. Upon receiving this i will complete the USFW inspection docs and have a local broker in your area contact you to help you process the import on your end.
2. I will ship the animals to you and pay for the airfreight on my end. You can forward this to me after receipt of the shipment-you can deduct anything that was shorted from this total as well as cover any other losses that may occur in transit.



this is the contact information I was given. If it is different let me know so I can correct it.
