Fed Ex - Boo

[joshsfrogs]

Keep in mind that it is against FedEx policy to deliver live animals to a residence. Therefore, vendors that use FedEx have to "secretly" ship animals to residences. "secretly" shipping animals is pretty risky (Lacey Act)...

UPS allows animal shipments, is cheaper, has earlier guaranteed delivery times than FedEx, and has been independently verified has more reliable (in regards to meeting their delivery guaranteed time).

So why don't vendors stop using FedEx? I stopped mail ordering my crickets, because my supplier was using FedEx and would not use another shipper. Now I pick them up locally.

I always try to defend Fedex, UPS and the postal service. Where would we be without them? I do know that drivers are threatened with loss of their jobs if they don't run on their schedule. One of the long time Fedex drivers at a retail store I worked at once told me the horror stories about what the bosses can do. So, if the majority of your deliveries get there alive and one is messed up, count your lucky stars. It is so easy to track packages nowadays and the recipient should be home and available for a live package. And always order a live animal the first day of the week, if possible.

I am glad that the salamander has arrived safely, but it does burn me when these *******s can't even be bothered to ring a bell or knock. It really burns me when the weather is bad.

That happened to me.... I had ordered a map turtle and a mud turtle.... The map turtle was fine but the mud turtle died a week after.... The damned turtlesource didnt replace it. .___. I wanna order something from that site and wait for the same person to come by and knee him in the sac and be like. THATS FOR MY TURTLE! :U Or borrow my friends dog to chase and bite him. xD
