    What is wrong with people?

    When you ship an animal to someone, is it that difficult for them to send an email saying that it got there safely? I shipped out 3 packages yesterday. 1 person emailed me right away. The other two haven't even bothered. I have emailed them multiple times today. It's my fault for not getting phone numbers (it won't happen again). FedEx left the packages at both houses of course. One is in a climate where if it was left outside the animals would be fine. The other is in a climate where the animal would absolutely be dead if left outside all day. What the hell is wrong with people!?!?

    Once they have their animal they feel their contact is done..

    I guess. I don't really get it. I searched the white pages and I finally got the first person on the phone. The snakes have been there all day. The second one I can't get anyone on the phone. It's pisses me off!

    Re: What is wrong with people?

    I have always sent an email out the second I open the box and make sure the animals are okay. I feel that is a responsibility of a good buyer as the seller really doesn't know if the snakes are in hand or on a porch baking in the sun.

    Re: What is wrong with people?

    Same here I always send out an email as soon as the package gets to my house and I verify everything as alive and ok.

    After shipping my own snake out I defintely know why it would piss you off. I was on on edge until I got the phone call that he made it ok.

    People are just clueless.

    Don't people have to sign for it?

    If you tracked it and it said delivered, then I would assume all is well.

    I always call after I've received an animal to explain good or bad news.

    If the person has a signature release on file then FedEx leaves it. Both packages were left without signature by FedEx.
