    S&H for the most part is between $40-$50 for FedEx or UPS next day air. Most are willing to pay the S&H or the breeder just includes it in the price of the snake or the breeder will pay for the S&H from his end.

    If S&H is included in the price and you are buying more than one snake, make sure you get the discount for S&H if they are being shipped in the same box.

    Same as the 3% PayPal charges, some sellers try and pass that on to the customer.

    Normally its just the same price no matter how many snakes are in the box.

    Well it usually costs more to ship more snakes because of the added weight, but less than shipping them all seperately.

    It depends on the size of the two snakes as mentioned. From not costing anything extra to a few bucks more depending on weight.

    It took me around a month to get certified.The longest part that takes up most of the time is shipping your sample box to Memphis,so they can run there tests.If you are going thru this make sure you pack everything just like you were shipping a snake in the box.For example tape the lids on your containers that the snake will be in during the trip,pack newspapers around everything so nothing moves inside(this is for the containers).They will run your box thru multiple tests and if your box fails you will not be certified until you pass there tests.I use boxes from Superior Enterprises and there deli containers.I hope this helps

    Four days from start of process to approval, then two weeks or so after that until Legal got the paperwork to my local rep... Delta only took about 4 days TOTAL.
