Shipping

We'll be safe from holiday shipping dealys on Monday.  I'm looking forward to it.  I'll be sending out 2 boxes and hope to have a few boxes enroute to me.  I'll be concerned about the pair going to the Josh who is not our Josh.  He's in IL and shipping to IL sometimes takes 3 days.  If they croak during transit I don't have a pair of equal quality to replace them with. 

It's always the most important shipments that go south.  It's a fact of life.  Keep your fingers crossed for this one.
Always move forward. Never look back.

It'll go fine, but perhaps you'd better check temps up here first.. :o...it's calling for around zero +/- , the heat packs fail if they get too cold, .......if he's that anxious, you might suggest he go with overnight shipping, or wait maybe til the following week????......better safe than sorry with those below zero temps......they're a death sentence... ;D

I'm going to ship to him Monday as I'd promised when he bought them in early December.  The deal was that the fish would go Priority.  I'm not going to aske him to pay more fir shiping to get them sooner, and I'm not willing to pay the extra cost.

The Hansie box is snug and holds heat well.  I shall will the heat pack not to fail.  Everything will be fine.  Just keep your fingers crossed for them.  It can't hurt and might help :-\

Don't start crossing and willing yet.  Ed reminded that you said it would be safe by the second week in Jan, not the first ::)  Greydragon is cool with it.  Poor Josh who is not our Josh paid for the fish a month ago and has been patiently waiting ever since.  The quality of the fish and the fact that they parent raise will make up for the long wait.
Always move forward. Never look back.
