ReptilesExpress.com

Just giving a heads up for those who aren't already aware of this one. It's a new shipping service using UPS as its carrier.

Hmmmm...very interesting, now that I'm FedEx Certified...

Well, look at it this way. :) If you sign up with ReptilesExpress, your customers have options. :D

I'm still waiting for FedEx to get back to me about the waiver... grrr... I signed up for membership through ReptilesExpress earlier tonight.

Do you have an idea on their rates? Is it comparible to SYR or cheaper than FedEx?

I never got a chance to use SYR before it put a stop to snake shipments so I can't compare the two from past experience, but you can get a rate quote on their website. It's definitely cheaper than FedEx.

That's great! I shipped my test package out with FedEx, but have not heard anything back yet. It seems like it is going to be a long process to become certified. I have quite a few animals to ship out, so this is very helpful. I just signed up, so hopefully I will be able to start shipping this coming Monday.

Most definitely cheaper than FedEx...I just mailed out two snakes last night...I could've saved $8 on one and possibly close to $12 on the other...Hmmmm, interesting...But DAMN, now that I got a great rep, I'm starting to be a little loyal to FedEx even though the beginning of the process sucked urates!!! I signed up for grins and giggles, we'll see...

ya, I joined last night also, and was in the process of fed ex cert, like pulling teeth, and reptile expresses rates are way better!!! so ya , come on reptile express!?!??!?!?:gj:

And their supplies are cheaper than Superior it appears...DAMN IT AGAIN, I just placed my order with them earlier this week!!!:mad:

Very similar to reptileexpress.com for Canadians. Does anyone know if these two are linked or it's just a coinsidence? :)
