wanted: who could ship corn snakes to the philippines?

snakes here are expensive.. and very hard to find.. hope u guys could help me..

tnx a lot :laugh01:

Exporting from the US to the Phillipines is going to be hundreds of dollars just for the shipping. For it to really be worth it, you would have to buy a lot of snakes at once.

sounds like an idea place to get a little business going though, thats presuming people would buy the babies you produce of course.
good luck

I shipped to the Philippines once...

about 10 years ago, I think. I don't know if things have changed since then. It took the buyer 2 years to finally get the permits from his own country (the US permits for corns are not difficult). He had the name of a Congressman or some politician (from the Philippines) as some sort of sponsor to get his permit. It wasn't easy for him. I think he bought about $2,000 worth of corns, and it might have cost about $700 - $800 for shipping, permits, etc - that is just on the US side. He might have had to spend money in his own country too. It costs almost the same whether you import 1 baby or 100 babies. That is because most of the money is not for shipping, it is for government red tape - permits, inspections, etc. That is the way government works. And they wonder why we are in a recession. Sad, isn't it?
