Thinking about selling my Female Grammostola Pulchra, just concerned over possible shipping delays! Anyone shipped overnight and had any issues? I tend to use FedEx

I thought cargo was ok,how would your spider be sent,cargo plane only,or with a passenger air line,maybe she would prefer a window seat.

I've received several T orders during this time and have had no problems. All of them shipped USPS and the only issue I had was the last order where the package was mis-sorted and sent to a nearby town about 75 miles away. Anyhow, it took three days for the T's to get here instead of two. Fortunately, the seller did a great job of packaging everything and included a 72 hour heat pack. T's finally arrived no worse for wear. Had it not been for the great packaging and mild weather, it might not have been such a happy ending.

Shipping is common. Opt for overnight if the seller is far away.
ALL of mine came USPS, one took 5 days, NO problems
ALL my 2 problems were bad packing
best packing seems to be loose crumpled Kleenex in a covered plastic container with air holes
