• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

fed ex only delivers to businesses???

That's really odd. Here's a portion of the tracking from my last shipment....

This tracking update has been requested by:


Company Name: ReptiCreations
Name: Catherine Peterson
E-mail: [email protected]

________________________________________________________________________________


Our records indicate that the following shipment has been delivered:


Ship (P/U) date: Oct 10, 2007
Delivery date: Oct 11, 2007 10:48 AM
Sign for by: Signature Release on file
Delivered to: Residence
Service type: FedEx Priority Overnight
Packaging type: Your Packaging
Number of pieces: 1
Weight: 2.00 lb.
Special handling/Services: Residential Delivery


Even though it was a home-based business delivery, with a business name to deliver to, it was counted as residential since it wasn't in a commercial area. But yes, it was still delivered.

I am noting also that even though it was supposedly sent signature required, they used the standard "release on file" line however.... :rolleyes:
 
Business to Residential Update

I just thought this was a bit interesting...

So i get an email showing my "PASSED" inspection from Fed Ex to get certified. I get a call from my "new" rep and she leaves a voicemail saying..."I'm not sure why your last rep told you that Fed Ex doesn't ship reptiles from business to residential because we DO!" ... left me kind of speachless.. From what I understood, it was only business to business that was allowed. Maybe they've finally changed that! :D
