This person is shipping venomous species via overnight carrier..... This act is 100% against the law and it is actions like this that are killing our hobby and getting our rights taken away from us...... I feel KS should be held just as responsible as the jackass selling and shipping it.....

Is it still against the law to ship it with the venom ducts removed, since then technically it isnt poisonous anymore? Not that im all for that or anything, but thats what it says up in the post...

Just curious-

Buddy,
You missed a capital 'I', a semicolon, two apostrophes, two periods and you misused 'there'. Your sentence should have read: It isn't poisonous; it's venomous. They're two different things.But there's no need to argue over semantics or grammar. I think everyone understood what both you and Artemis meant. :)

PS - Now I'll look pretty stupid next time I screw up my grammar. ;)

Hey,
They changed the ad. The price has fallen $200 and there's now an obo after it. The snake no longer ships overnight to your door either.

its a venomous SPECIES. if they open it up and see a gaboon, its going to make the news, venomoid or not. gregg, theres not much you can do to stop these idiots. all you can do is not become one yourself.
