Roach sellers; delivery won't come

[jacksonchamnew]

I have nothing against Critter Depot but I have been waiting for roaches that were shipped the 2/05. I have to find the transaction date. It is a good thing that I have super worms because I can never depend on having roaches. The roaches must have heat pack but this won't do any good after 2 days in the mail. I think they come from New Jersey. I ordered Lobster roaches before and they came from Florida. Same Seller?

If I order something from Chewy for my reef, it comes in like 2 days. How can they deliver so fast?

What will happen to nutritional content? Roaches have to stay in torpor.

I hope you didn't pay too much for shipping

Shipping was free. 50 for $25 and shipping. Like a slow boat from China.

 

[jacksonchamnew]

Maybe some will get out and infest every slow post office they go through; my revenge.

Omg... im so sorry. Idk ordering stuff online is just hit or miss. You would think paying 50 for shipping tho they'd do a better job.

USPS is so slow in the NE that companies are not charging late fees for bills no mo. I got my cable bill 2 days after it was due, instead of a week before it was due...

I am here listening to Metallica-The Day that never comes, waiting for my roaches.

Did my roaches go though the Bermuda triangle? From the 5th to the 9th they disappeared from the earth. LOL

I only order my dubia from Dubiaroaches.com I have never had an issue with shipping from them. It is almost always shipped within 2 days of placing my order and arrives within the week depending on the day I order.

 

[Madmango]

I agree with Beman Dubiaroaches.com is great. They do ship via usps so you still run the risk of the pos office losing your package. they also don’t use heat packs

 

[Beman]

I do plan my shipments for when Nor Cal has 50 degree weather. But the boxes they use are totally enclosed. This time of year is iffy depending on where you order from. Ordering from a location closer to you can be a better idea if your dealing with below freezing temps.
Also choosing to pick up from the post office rather than delivery if it is really cold.

 

[jacksonchamnew]

Roaches are tough. They all made it.

 

[jacksonchamnew]

Critter Depot-Healthy roaches here. Survived snowstorm.

 

[Fchamel]

yay!

Knock on wood, I've had no problems shipping through this entire year- well, except for that few week period when the jackass louis dejoy first took over the post office, only time I ever had delays. I ship all over the country with no problems. Our area has been so cold and snowy these past couple weeks so I've held off just to be safe.

Dubia are incredibly tough, I've had them survive short temps in the 30s and 110+ lol. Most roaches would have arrived dead though.
