    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 know that a lot of people buy from Strictly, either by handpicking stock, or having it shipped. I am also very aware of the issues that you may run into when dealing with Strictly.

My question has to do with the drop shipping service that Strictly offers their customers that request it. Has any one on here ever used them to dropship to a customer? If so, I would love to hear how it went? Any problems or issues?


Thank you,


David
 
I have known Strictly family for what feels like forever. So I may be a little biased admittedly. To answer your question, I have never had an issue with the drop shipping service. I have been very clear in my instructions emailed my OWN invoice to be used etc. Like I said I’ve never had a problem. 99.9% of everything we send out I have on hand and we have produced ourselves. I go to Strictly on rare occasions when I’m looking for high end torts primarily or the rare hot. As always with drop shipping the real issue is you can’t put your hands on the animal before your client does. I’ve been an exotics broker for over 30 years now and there is one rule I’ve learned if you don’t put your eyes and hands on the animal you are really at the mercy of the clients “usually uneducated” opinion. It’s a double edged sword.
