Omg Omg Omg Omg I'm So Excited!

Congrats Aleesh. I'm glad to hear that your snakes should be inbound very soon. I know you have been waiting a long time for them. I think that once they get there, it will be well worth the wait. CITES in tthe US sucks. If only he was shipping from Canada to the US, it would have been great. I can't wait to see your very own pics of your beautiful snakes.

thanks tim... have you got any info for me?

Unfortunately I have not done that yet. I just started to look at CITES paperwork today, as I have had alot of Europeans sending me e-mails in the last few months. I am still very new to the international game.

ah that's okay tim.. i still adore you! :hug:

:hug: Aleesha!!!! I'm so frickin excited for you! I remember when you were picking out the spider and asking me for my opinion on your choices! It has been a long time coming, but now the time is near for them to get there!


So when are they shipping?

Wonderful news hon...absolutely wonderful! So do they just ship FedEx as other snakes do or do they have to go another route due to the international thing? I can't imagine how excited your family must be! Big hugs!

How exciting! Congrats!:bounce: :clap:

I guess you're not in the States.

CITES is such a pain in the neck. My old broker used to get re-export CITES in two weeks. Now my new exporter just got it AFTER ALMOST 4 MONTHS OF WAITING!!! :(

May I ask where're you located at? :)

oh never mind, Canada it is!

Regarding CITES in the US. I've been imported for a year and lately everything have been extreme slow. Many of breeders I've talked to said it's because of understaff in the VA CITES head office. Maybe some of you in VA should apply for a job there just to help us out lol

Awesome Aleesha, I'm so excited for you. When I visited Adam's shop earlier this month, I saw all the tubs with your name on them, and thought that you must be going nutso by now :rolleye2: :D . I can't wait to see pics of them in Canada!!
