Too cold to ship?
I am getting my girlfriend a gecko for Christmas.... And around Michigan it's getting cold. This Tuesday and Wednesday are most likely going to be the last of the temp this high for awhile. Do you think we should go ahead with the shipping? Its not coming from that far away, Around NY. Will be shipped in a Styrofoam insulated box with 48hr heat pads. What do ya think???

The olny thing is the company won't have a guarantee on the animal if the temp is below 50 or something. Every company is like that. Be aware of that.

It's best to ask the shipper what their policy is on cold weather shipping, though I can almost guarentee you they wont ship to michigan in the dead of winter.

Yup she said its up to be because its too cold to guarentee it... but as long as it is packed up right and shipped out on tuesday (supose to be 38 degrees on tues) I think everything should be ok..... what do ya think? |
