Big news for my existing customers and potential new customers located outside the local shipping area serviced by UPS ground delivery (local area includes NJ, VT, CT, RI, MA, DE, MD, and eastern PA and NY).

I have negotiated reduced rates for overnight delivery via UPS next day air shipping to all states.  Please be sure to inquire by forwarding your zip code when emailing about an order.  I will gladly reply with a quote of your new reduced rate.

 

NEW SPECIAL PRICING FOR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY ON SATURDAYS!

From now on, I will pay the 'special Saturday delivery fee' (average cost of 15.00) for customers who would like to have UPS overnight delivery to their door on a Saturday.  The regular UPS next day air weekday cost of delivery is still applicable, but customers will no longer be responsible to pay anything extra for this service.   So for those of you who are only available to accept a package on the weekend, there is no reason to hesitate ordering due to extra weekend delivery costs.

Please be aware that size, price, and availability are subject to change. 

There is no minimum order.  Please keep in mind that shipping costs, styrofoam box/heat pack charges, plus processing charge for a paypal or credit card charge will be added to your order. 

UPS Ground Shipping with next day service is available to all of NJ, VT, CT, RI, MA, DE, MD, and eastern PA and NY.  Ground rates are extremely reasonable-even for larger orders.  Please inquire if you are located in the above areas.

UPS next day air &/or next day air saver are available to all domestic (US) destinations:  I have daily UPS pick up from my facility shipping Monday through Friday for delivery days of Tuesday through Saturday.  Please forward your zip code for shipping quotes.

For airport shipped domestic (US) orders:  A 25.00 airport delivery charge is added to all orders.  You must pick up your order directly from the air cargo facility at specified airport. 

For export orders shipped via airport (including all Canada destinations):  Minimum order is $250.00 of fish and there is an additional clearance fee of $125.00 per shipment for US Fish and Wildlife paperwork clearance and inspections.  Depending on the final destination, some international shipments require the services of an export broker.  This fee is $100.00 per shipment.   A 25.00 airport delivery charge is added to all orders.

European countries requiring Animal Health Certification from the USDA are subject to a 50.00 fee required to obtain this documentation.

For all fish orders over $350.00, I will deduct 5% from the invoice total of fish.  For orders exceeding $500.00, I will deduct 10% from the invoice total of fish.

All shipments are sent prepaid by paypal (sign up at www.paypal.com) or credit/debit card (Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover). 

Please allow me to confirm that fish ordered are in stock for all prepaid orders prior to sending funds.

Given the high quality of fish shipped and special care taken to pack safely for transit, losses are very seldom experienced in shipping.  Due to the inherent risk involved in shipping overnight during the cold winter months, I will do my best to ensure safe transit of the fish.   I guarantee live arrival of fish shipped via same-day air freight; provided that flights are on time and shipment is picked up within 2 hours of arrival - and provided the package is not subject to claim via mishandling by carrier.  I will also guarantee live arrival on UPS/FedEx shipments sent and delivered as next day air delivery/priority overnight option ‘by 10:30 AM’ – and provided the package is not subject to claim via mishandling by carrier .  Next day delivery via ‘ground shipping/delivery by end of day’ does not guarantee delivery by a specific time of day, so live arrival guarantee does not apply.  Any claims must be reported the same day of receipt.  Any credit due will be awarded on your next order-no cash refunds. 

Best regards, Jeff Rapps
