Title: shipping question
Post by: archerobx on November 16, 2007, 09:55:13 PM: I have a question. I shipped my frozen yote out on tues morn and the person hasnt recieved it and the tracking number is not helping. My question is, if it was frozen solid, packed in 3 heavy trash bags with 6 ice bags in a carboard box, do you think the fur will still be good?
thanks

I bought insurance and they said it will cover the spoilage because item did not arrive on time. I hope its not spoiled what a waste of a pretty animal

You can see when it arrives by typing in your tracking no.

Also I think the mail transfer buildings and trucks are not heated so that should also help.
