    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....

I will be shipping one of my snakes to Louisiana and he currently weighs 865 Grams.... there are so many sized boxes to choose from on the ship your reptiles website that i dont want to get the wrong size.

This is my first time shipping so i wanna do it right. im gonna be buying one of those "sets" complete with all the supplies to ship 1 snake.
 
Never mind

I told the guy to ship first so i could call and verify the package information had been received by fed-ex before i shipped out my snake (then id give him my snakes tracking number) and he got all sketchy and said i sounded like a scammer. he also wouldn't give me a full address or a last name. said he had an account on here he never used however when i put in information to search for him no accounts came up.

i just told him id find someone else to deal with.
 
The issue of who ships out often gets unnecessarily weird because too many people think they have the right/ability to say they won't ship first. The basic rule is if person A asks person B if he will take _____ in trade, person A ships first. (Granted, not all situations are that straightforward, but it's often the simplest version that gets screwed up)

That part aside, it doesn't take a lot of common sense to know that full names and addresses are required for shipping. Gotta love that somebody that won't even give his information is calling somebody a scammer.
 
thank you i kinda thought that size but i wasn't sure.

anyhow i wasn't stating that i wanted to get a tracking number so i could verify that the packages information had been electronically received (not necessarily shipped off for delivery).... then i would have shipped the same day i received verification
