poop happens...

and 90% of the time as we all know it happens to me.

I wanted to say sorry to every one who was interested in buying one of my BPs. I couldn't find a shipper to ship them and then I ended up really sick and in the hospital for quite a while.

I just found out that GA has a law that prohibits the shipping of any live reptile out of the state. At least that was what I was told by UPS and DHL. Fex Ex is in SC about 45 min away and I was still to sick to travel that far.

I'm really beginning to hate this state...

So if your still interested in any of my snakes and you live near me then I will be able to sell.


I just wanted to clear things up with you all and I didn't want any of you thinking I was trying to scam or wrong you in any way.

Poop happens to the best of us.

I didn't know where to put this thread so if it is in the wrong place please move it. Thanks.

I'm sorry to hear that. Hope youre getting better.

I am doing much better... I have been having problems with my Spinal Meningitis coming back and this last time it was a doozie. But I'm getting better each day.

Jessie i was wondering if you were ok as i have not seen you online lately.Hope you continue getting better:) .Now on the shipping thing i find that hard to beleive and i think DHL and the other place are lieing to you.I wish i was closer or i would ship your snakes for you.

I have looked over both sites... for DHL and UPS and both sites state nothing about Live reptile shipping laws per state. so I think your right Joe. Monday if I'm feeling up to it Im going to march my happy butt back to DHL or UPS with there "guidelines and regs" in hand and I will tell themto shuv there "GA state Law" up there pooter.


I have been going over this states laws while I was in the hospital and so far I still have yet to see anything about shipping reptiles. All that I did find was that Crocs, gaters and any imported rear fanged snakes are not at all alowed as pets.... along with some off the wall laws about dolphins and other marine mamals in swimming pools.

Jessie,if i was you i would not waste my time with DHL(AKA MORONS) or UPS(AKA IDIOTS THAT LOSE PACKAGES) get in contact with Fedex and ask for the legal dept(aka James Browns area).Tell them you want papers to be certified to ship reptiles thru them.If the person whom first answers the phone when you call tells you they do not ship snakes or gives you a problem let me know.I have a direct phone number for a executive sales rep that i am sure will help you.Since this certification never expires you will be approved forever.Once you get the papers and have any questions please contact me,if needed i will give you my direct email addy and phone number.When i was certified i did more then they asked and they commended me on it.:cool:

that might be the best thing... My biggest problem right now is how to pay for it... if you like I could give you my number via PM and I can get as much info as I can get.

It does not cost a cent to get certified thru fedex.They even picked up the cost to ship my test box to them.

I am glad to read that you're doing OK; I was wondering where you went too.. :)
I too need to get certified to ship, and I am not looking forward to it.

Jen,if you need any help with getting certified let me know:)

I will never work with DHL again!!! My husband had a shipment of 8 inch subwoofers other car audio equpt and one snake (total worth of $10,000.00) coming to him and 3 days ago DHL found the shipping van empty on the side of the road and the driver nowhere to be found. We got the call that day and was told that they would refund the money. yesterday we got a call stating that the driver was found and aressted. But there was no sign of our packages. They then told us that they only wanted to refund half of the amount. We are sueing next week.

Whoa thats just wrong! Jess contact the company that you bought the stuff from and have them get involved if nothing else they are responsible for a refund to you.The stuff never reached you so its between them and DHL.Once again another reason to not deal with the DHL morons!

Every time I have ever recieved anything from DHL, it was damaged, tossed around, lost... always something. That some folks ship live animals through them scares the hell out of me. Honestly, I don't know how they stay in buisness. I'll go out of my way to avoid having anything shipped through them, and I won't buy from people who insist on them. It's just not worth it.
