I'm writing regarding Scout's comments entitled "What An
Outrage". In the letter he accuses me of misleading him about
the price of shipping him a glider. The cost of shipping was spelled
out for him the very first time we corresponded. Copy follows:

Hi Scout,

I have a question for you this time. I'm more than a little ticked. You are as nice as pie to my face and yet you are slandering me on the internet. You don't seem to read very well so I'll keep the language simple. I told you the shipping would be around $80 the very first time we corresponded. I expect to see a correction and an apology for your mistake on the glidernet and anywhere else you might have posted your remarks about me not telling you how much the shipping was going to be. For God's sake read your e-mail. You are so busy asking quesions that you don't bother to stop to listen to the answeres. You have damaged my business. I WILL be speaking to your father about this to and e-mailing him copy of this correspondance. Oh and by the way, this will be appearing on the glidernet too. You should think twice before you spread malicious gossip. It can backfire. Copy of our original correspondance follows:

Hi Scout,

No, I don't know of anyone out your way who breeds sugar gliders, In fact I send a lot out that way for that reason. While you may occaisionally see people in the States advertising gliders for the equivalent of around $120 CAN each, this is not the norm and the animals almost certainly are not tame. I ship a lot of gliders into Chicago and they sell for $300 US each in the pet stores. The best I can do for you is $150 CAN for a hand tame baby. Shipping crates are $20. Delivery by Canadian Airlines will cost around $80. I suggest you find several people who want gliders so that you can share the cost of the crate and the shiping. Up to 15 babies can travel in the same crate.

Caroline.
