Hello Devin,

firstly good luck to you! Is there any way of finding out whether your delivery with UPS would work for Whistler, BC, V0N 1B4?

I ask because generally UPS would go from you to Vancouver and then 2 hours North to Whistler. If they are still able to turn around for next day then I might like to place an order.

thanks,

Rob

Chad, I would be interested in an order with you. However I only get to Vancouver about twice per month, so if it worked for you I would have to ask if you could quarantine my order so that I could drive down?

Let me know,

Rob

I wonder if J&L, Seacare, SWC could be convinced to ship via courier. Lot easier than me driving to Calgary or Edmonton to pick up my orders.

Hey Quinn,

When I've talked to J&L they let me know that they are waiting for UPS to guarantee live shipments, or something to that extent. So I generally get my stuff sent up via Grayhound, mind you I live in a small town so it's no big deal really.

It is a shame though, when I lived in the states it was so simple, ordered anything I wanted online with overnight shipping, no muss, no fuss, and always great guarantee's!

Best,

Rob

Chad,
I would be very interested in some things, If we could go in together that would be great.

Let me know, I have a flexible work schedule so I could be available when the shipper delivers.

Well all this worry about UPS really happened today for the first time, I was sending a shipment to rcipema next day by 10:30am, and sure enough UPS redirected it the wrong way, not a total loss we managed to get it back from UPS put everything back into the system repack and send it out for tomorrow by 10:30am, now this was the first time this has happened, and hopefully never again, I have been in contact with rcipema hopefully he is understanding.

Thanks
-Devin Montreuil

Hello Devin,
Yes, I believe it was Ryan who called me twice today to keep me informed on what happened and what was going to happen which was appreciated Once things are out of your hands anything can happen. I also give you credit for mentioning this on site that things aren't always perfect.
Cheers till tomorrow, Ande (Mike)

Well I have never been one to keep things secret, there was a problem today which I was not happy about at all, I had make over 20 phone calls to locate this package and arrange to get it picked up, where I needed to drive over 60KM to get to the UPS Hub and get it, unpack it all for a few hours, everything opened up by the way and repack it all drive 60KM to drop it off again so it makes it to Alberta for 10:30AM, but its what I needed to do, I am hopeing that the zoos are all okay because they have just been though a lot of stress, if there is any problems please let me know right away and I will make it right

Thanks for the kind words mike

Hey Rob, I am ready for it. But so far I have only heard from 2 people. Not sure how much everyone was going to spend
