Don't ship USPS!

[mbrand6]

I've never had problems with USPS. This could happen with any carrier. Just always make sure you get insurance on your item. The problem for me is usually the person shipping it not using the right materials.

this also happens with UPS and Fedex the best way is ap to ap.

thats great ya i got a shipment in and the side of the box had a huge gash and was all torn up. i lost two fish and one barely made it because the bag had no air. ups beat the snot out of it and stressed the fish to death but luckily the other 4 made it. and they refunded the fish and shipping

I'm glad that all of the RTs made it. This has been a great learning experience in the entire shipping process. I know a lot more than I did before. I'll post some pics shortly. They are still small, around 1-1.5in. They are really active and they won't stop swimming long enough to get a decent shot.

express can be second day as well, its in their fine print. I always label express boxes with instructions to call the person when they arrive at the post office. I prefer to go and pick up my boxes coming to me rather than wait for them to be delivered as well.

I have always done really well with USPS.

Fedex and UPS, on the other hand, have a way of mangling many of the boxes that I have sent and received.
