NO MORE SHIPPING STINGRAYS

[N-E Cichlids]

Effective Immediately

Due to some recent events with a customer recieving Dead Sringrays and not following policies on the Live Arrival Guarantee We are no longer going to ship stingrays to anyone. You are more than welcome to come pick them up, but no more shipping on them.

And an illegal state, Florida


You need to realize that shipping any live stock is risky, curtailing all stingray shipping is not a good choice.

Atlantic Stingrays are the only rays Legal in Florida. If I was able to sell all river rays in the state of Florida, I would definately continue shipping rays and I would set rules for shipping rays. After dealing with my current issue with a customer One type of fish is not worth the heartache I have to deal with.

I stay busy selling the fish I have, I do not need one type of fish to make or break me. I do this because I enjoy providing customers with quality fish at reasonable prices. When I have to deal with "Do you know who I am" Customers and they try to pull their weight It no longer makes it enjoyable.

I am a very honest bussiness man and I try very hard to please everyone, however we all know that is not possible.

FYI: Anyone who is a dedicated hobbyist in this industry and deals with online livestock sales knows that if you recieve a Dead fish the first thing you do is take a picture of it in the UNOPENED bag in order for you to keep your live arrival guarantee. That is a standard practice in this bussiness.

If you are worried about scammers you should put in your policy that incase of a doa they should ship the ray back to you in a bag with table salt. The salt will maintain the ray for quite a while.

I have recieved alot of feedback on my new policy. With that said I think I am going to adopt Nate's policy and require that they cut the tail off and send it back to me. My last problem was not with a scammer, the customer is in fact a well known hobbyist who knows quite a bit about fish. They simply did not read our DOA Policy in full. I can not simply bend the rules for one and not the other. I may start shipping them again on a case by case basis. If there are people on here that are serious about these rays PM me and we may be able to work something out.
