Do a search of that vendor on this forum. There is a lot said about him.

That should be a big enough hint right there...imagine how much longer you would need to wait if you had a problem with your order (and you likely will).

I will never chase a company to spend my money with them. I'm pretty easy going as far as customers go but there are limits.

A google search or a search of this forums should give you all the information you need to make a decision on if you want to be their customer.

Personally I'd give Mad Jelly or Fragbox a jingle instead. They excel at customer service.

Burc is currently relocating, so that might be one of the reason why he has not been able to get back to you.

Thanks everyone for the heads up - I had a friend recommend them. But I did answer my own question LOL - 3 days is a long time for a response imo - or at least an acknowledgment.

I will never give Fragalot another dollar ...

I've had great success with Coral Master, and have heard nothing but good things about MJC, Fragbox, and CanadaCorals.

I'd recommend them before I would ever do business with Burc. It will be one excuse after another ... and a 6-10 day wait between each one

This shows class to the enth degree, well done Mr. Tony.....Now if you only carried LPS colonies......

To answer the original post I haven't had any huge issues with Burc but have worked a long time to develop a relationship with him. Some of my best LPS colonies have come from him.

Has he been constantly relocating over the past several years?

This is not a new problem. We waited weeks for a paid order once. He would not even contact to say it was or was not sent.

I do believe he had so many complaints against his bad practices that Canreef removed him as a sponsor.

What does that say? Canreef never wanted his money. But he will take yours.

Probably because people want to lynch him for his S****Y service. I dealt with him once, that was enough.

Avoid this vendor at all costs! There are a host of other vendors offering stellar coral other than this clown. If ya want a botched order and poor customer service, this place might be for you.....

Fragbox, Big Show Frags, Mad Jelly, reef wonderland would be a solid, reliable, and pain free decision...

IMO

...wow, I thought it was just us!

Glad to see someone has made a thread about how horrible this guy is as a supplier! I just wish I had seen this before placing an order with him. What a joke! I hope he looses all his customers and fragalot goes belly up soon.

Hey the more other people complain the more good stuff is left for those of us who actually like Burcs stuff.

Wow, spelling not a high priority eh?

What do you mean by "ineradicable" selection? Seriously, your spelling seems to be getting worse over time. I hate being the spelling & grammar police but it is posts like this that drives a lot of us "old-timers" crazy. Appreciate your enthusiasm for this hobby and willingness to post and help, but trying to read what you type is like deciphering a code sometimes.

Creative spelling of "incredible" that happened to be an entirely different word? Or fragalot has a selection of indestructible corals...but based on survival history, I'mma go with option 1.

If someone is offering poor service etc, I think it's fair to rip on them to a degree. However just because someone's spelling or grammar isn't up to "standards" doesn't mean they deserve it. My girlfriend has always had a problem with numbers, and recently discovered there's a form of dyslexia that's just for numbers and calculating. Sure it frustrates me but that's how it is.

Actually remember reading this a while back,
Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

So get over the misspelled words, if you can't understand then maybe it's not a Scott problem maybe it's a you problem.

Everyone take a breath. I'm sure Scott has pet peeves, plus everyone has ****ty days and is allowed a rant or two. Everyone back to their appointed key boards. I'm terribly dyslexic with numbers, I can't recite more than four numbers with out getting something transposed. But I was kick ass on the Simon game some thirty odd years ago.
