would you be interested in shipping the scorpian? to 60014, chicago area, not to far from you

would you be willing to ship. I live in michigan, so it would have to be in a thermos and have heat packs. I am interested in one of each of the plants or maybe even a couple of each.

Meisen
12/25/2004, 12:35 AM
Yeah I will ship but it will have to wait until this current cold snap breaks....-5 is just a little too much I think even for good heat packs and styro.


The plants should be ok in the box for 2-3 days as long as I can get the long-lasting heat packs. I usually ship them in wet paper towels along with some ballast water in seperate bags to help hold the temperature constant.

SOR,
The Scorpion might be somewhat pricey to ship....
I might be heading out there in a week or two. I will know if thats for sure by Monday. Otherwise, I am more than happy to ship him. Did you see pics in my gallery BTW, just so you know how UGLY he is!?

o yea and how big is he?

Meisen
12/25/2004, 03:31 PM
I think he is about 7" long (but wide). Let me know when you want to meet up....if you can meet me halfway between your place and Madison, it should only be a 20' drive for both of us.

my dad said it takes about 3 hours to drive to madison... i dont know where 20 mins would be heh, i live about an hour and a half west of the city, so im not exactly in chicago...

Meisen
12/25/2004, 03:45 PM
Oh wow, thats further than I thought. I guess I dont know the geography around here that well...Chicago is only about 2 hours from us though and we are just North and West of it.

How far are you from Rockford?

slave-of-rock
12/25/2004, 03:52 PM
