Wow 4 weeks past due?? I was bugging Ali after a week past due on my T10s haha. She told me that their order of PVC sheets was messed up so they had to get a new order which set them back a decent amount. I sure hope the T8s aren't late as the main reason I ordered them was the quick ship. Ali told me they would ship in 3-4 weeks which I then gave grumbled to her about "quick ship" in a joking way. She said, hey its quicker than the 13 weeks for your T10s. You have a point lol.
I'm not patient of a person so I ordered the T8s so I could have a nice stack of them next to my T10s. That way when I do need to order T25s, the wait will be bearable lol. Then I can have a stack of 4 T25s, 4 T8s and 3 T10s. It'll be like a snake monument!!!!

Try to find local groups in your state to sell on. I've had no issues selling my old enclosures. I generally sell mine for the same price I paid for it, used or not. It's still a better option than somebody ordering directly, waiting, then having to assemble.
I also found a guy in GA that builds PVC enclosures, so with AP being so backed up, I decided to go this route. I currently have two t3's but the specialty version with a basking shelf. However, I may sell the one with the sliding glass and get a 4 foot one built instead, but that's down the road when the rat snake outgrows it.
Aside I spent $935 for these cages:
17w x 18d x 22h w/ 1 led puck light, 28w heat panel & lockable swing door.
18w x 18d x 22h w/ 1 led puck light, 28w heat panel & lockable swing door.
36w x 18d x 18t w/ 2 led puck lights, 28w heat panel, t8 18" fixture w/ dual lockable swing doors
46w x 24d x 20t w/ 2 led puck lights, 40w heat panel, t8 18" fixture w/ lockable sliding glass
That's everything included, assembled, fixtures and all. The led puck lights will be remote controlled. The first two enclosures is for my squam and my venustus get here, then the baby squams I have coming, one will likely go in the exo terra that the current one is in. The 36w is for my Rhino Viper, and the 46w will be for my Naja.
I love AP, but the lead time is a bit more than I want to wait, so that's the only reason I went that route. I have one enclosure from PVCcages, but I can honestly say I'm not a fan, several small things I've noticed that I don't really like. One is that AP screws go in recessed so they don't stick out at all, you can up the torque and do this for PVC but then it doesn't look right to me. There are a few other things, but nothing major.

Re: What enclosures do you have on order? Im going crazy waiting how about you? Lol
On 12/20/2016 I ordered 3 T10's from AP with an expected delivery of 10-12 weeks. No problem as it gives me time to work the OT.
Accessories: Sliding glass with locks, shelves, 10mm channel for LED lights in all of them; 2 with dividers and they will have 40W Pro Products RHPs and the 1 without a divider will have the larger 80 or 88W Pro Products RHP (whatever Bob thought was best as I keep my house around 60 degrees pretty much all year), will be empty until one of my collection grows large enough to occupy it without stressing it out.
My thought process is the boas will share a divided T10 and about the same time be ready for the move to a full T10 comfortably. The ball python will have her own divided T10 until she's ready to expand as well.
I wanted to make the investment now and think long term when the snakes are full grown instead of buying small now and having to replace later.
Looking at my space restriction (unless I go crazy and convert a portion of my basement which would be very easy to do and so tempting) I could fit a 4th T10 but I want to wait and see. I literally just got my ball in November 2016 and this is all new and VERY exciting for me.
***EDIT*** I agree, Ali is an AMAZING customer service rep for their company. She's AWESOME!!! Bob at Pro Products is great as well.
I have you members for suggesting these vendors and making this as enjoyable for me as it has been and will continue to be. For that I THANK YOU!!!

The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

waiting is the worst however AP cages are worth it. For a niche market company they do a great job.

I have a no name , special order from AP, it's a Gecko Condo 32 wide x 16 deep x 24 high that contains 2 cages each being 16 X 16 X 24.
One of the reason I like AP is that I can get custom built cages or racks.
