Fragfactory Group Order (Lots of zoos in!!)

[OCDP]

Would there be any interest in this new re-opening sale? I'd be looking to order as of next Friday (pay day :lol: )

Crazy deals right now IMO, and some crazy nice stuff. I really want some zoos ... again, smokin' deals as of right now

Let's see what we can work up..



Free Shipping on any order over $275.00!
Shipping is only $43.50 via WestJet Expedited Cargo!

[hawaiiguy]

I may be interested... Is there a website or species list or something to look at?

[hawaiiguy]

Oh yeah,

I'd be most interested in some zoos too.

[christyf5]

I may be interested... Is there a website or species list or something to look at?

http://www.fragfactory.ca/

[hawaiiguy]

Looks good! Do you know why they are marking everything down?

[Quagmire]

I may be interested too.The prices are marked down as a re-opening sale.

[hawaiiguy]

oh yeah... re-opening sale... just like it says at the top:redface: Guess I need to pay more attention to what I read:lol:

[OCDP]

Okay, so two others possibly interested. Let's see how many we can get. Does anyone know how long the sale is on for? I definitely need to get paid first haha :redface:

[FragFactory]

Great idea to save on the shipping guys :)

The sale will be on till the end of the month. I will be sure to mark the bags with eveybodies names, and corals to make pickup for you guys easier.

Let me know what I can do to make organizing this easier, as I know how difficult group ordering can be :)

What I can do is have eveybody just order through the site, and choose free shipping so this way nobody is on the hook for the whole bill. Just specify you are part of the group order. I will include all packaging slips with the orders.

Mike

[golfbomber]

do you have any PPE yet for sale?

[FragFactory]

do you have any PPE yet for sale?

PPE?? Purple People eater zoo? NO we don't have those available at the moment.

Mike

[golfbomber]

darn thought i would ask. put me at the top of the list if/when you do get some.

Mike

Thanks for the support Mike :)

Well, I guess I should say that I personally can't organize this order myself. haha.... if someone else would be able to organize this, then it would be much easier. I guess I should have said that from the get-go. That's my fault, sorry about that.

Hopefully someone will be able to , and let's see how many others we can get in on this order before the end of the week. Where's Steve? :razz: I'll probably be ordering a zoo pack and possibly a couple SPS frags as well.

Again, my apologies... I don't drive yet, and I don't own a credit card yet lol (just applied for one) I'll have to use my rents if we each do a seperate order or whatever.

[albert_dao]

I'm in for the Cyphastrea assuming it's bigger than 3/4".
:D

[FragFactory]

I'm in for the Cyphastrea assuming it's bigger than 3/4".
:D

I can make it happen :) ehehhe

Mike

[albert_dao]

Well then, I believe we have a deal my friend :D

[OCDP]

Cool,

Before this goes any further though... does someone want to organize this? Otherwise , we're all goign to be ordering seperately :(

[albert_dao]

OOOOOOOKAY, I'm going to take the reigns on this one to see if we can make it fly. Anyone who's in on it, here's how it's going to go down:

All interested parties PM me.

Once the orders are figured out, I will make arrangements with Mike to place the order through.

I will PM everyone individually on the status/updates of their order prior to asking for payment.

Payment will be expected within a deadline. I can take cash or Paypal. You all know where to find me.

Upon receiving all the relevant payments, we will make this happen and I will pick up the order and distribute it via pick up OR some other reasonable solution.

If anyone has any concerns over this, PLEASE, do make yourself heard.

BTW, if we cannot hit free shipping, this isn't going to get off the ground.

[OCDP]

So, no deal if we cant hit the 275$ mark? Dang. I was hoping that between the interested parties we could split the 45(or whatever it was) shipping rate.

[albert_dao]

Shipping sux, it's like $65. Nothx.

I have a lot of problems paying anything more than beer and four letter words for frags, shipping is stretching it :D

[OCDP]

Well, obviously shipping sucks if you're only order 1 , 1" frag dude :D

[FragFactory]

Shipping is only $43.50, as I have negotiated a great discounted rate. Hopefully you guys can get a few people interested and hit the 275 mark :) If you are close we can work something out as well :)

Mike

[OCDP]

Yeah, I was wondering where the 65$ came from. 43$ aint that bad IMO.

Thanks again Mike.. I can tell you'll be a great person to deal with.

[albert_dao]

$65 is standard shipping rate for parcels on cargo. If Mike has negotiated a better rate, that has nothing to do with the $65 I put out on the board.

But aside, could you PM me what you want Scott? That way, I can get a figure started.

[OCDP]

Oh, okay.. well, that just goes to show I know nothing about shipping and online orders. Aren't you all glad I'm not the one organizing ? :redface:

I'll PM you

[midgetwaiter]

You all know where to find me.


Yeah but I always feel so wierd going in there, being the only one not dressed up like a Sailor Moon character and all.

Couldn't we meet you at work instead?

[G1GY]

Yeah but I always feel so wierd going in there, being the only one not dressed up like a Sailor Moon character and all.

Couldn't we meet you at work instead?

:lol:

I was going to be in for the TriColor Favia, but looks like I missed the boat. :(

[hawaiiguy]

pm'd ya albert... thanks for taking the reins here! Let us know when we hit 275$

[OCDP]

Yeah, how many people do we have now? I know I am hopefully going to spend a fair bit (let's say 100ish , or 100 max) on this order. All depends as of right now.

Let us know how many people and a rough estimate to our grand total when you get a moment!

PS: Albert, sent you another updated PM.. changed the zoo list a bit.

[FragFactory]

Just so you guys know, there will be two more sweet zoos going on the site tonight, as we hand picked two colonies from our suppliers shipment :)

Mike

[hawaiiguy]

[OCDP]

Not too bad for only two people! Common folks, we can do it haha.

I mean, there is some amazing zoos and SPS frags on the site, take advantage of the sweet pieces. :razz:

[hawaiiguy]

I've added a Tiger Eye to my order... tack on another 20$:biggrin: that's 204 $ for the both of us...

[OCDP]

Awesome. We have to hit the free shipping mark now.

PS: Those tiger eyes look pretty sweet... me and you should arrange a frag swap once each of ours grows out a bit . :biggrin:

[andestang]

I might be in for a couple of things. I'll see if they have what I want.

[Quagmire]

OK here's my list:

Orange Eye Zoos

[muck]

shucks Scott...
the purple monster is OUT OF STOCK now..

let the revising begin a new.. :razz: :razz:

[Quagmire]

OK everyone as soon as his new list is done,we all buy the Elec. Green Milli :D

[albert_dao]

I've received and taken down all the request. I've also fowarded them thusfar to Mike.

In anycase, I'm going to draw a deadline for request for Thursay. That'll give everyone time to think about what they want. Once everything is finalized, I want payment (paypal or cash only please) within 2-3 days so we can get this moving without forcing Mike to hold onto stock for too long.

PM ME!

[albert_dao]

And Scott, if you change your list one more time, I'm going to rag on you for my next 200 posts :P

[OCDP]

ah man,

Replace purple monster with Unknown Acro w/ Blue tips.

[FragFactory]

ah man,

Replace purple monster with Unknown Acro w/ Blue tips.

Good Choice :)That is probably the nicest and most uncommon acro I have.. It is definetly a show stoper :) Everybody who comes over, wants a piece of that.. ehhehe

Mike

[OCDP]

Awesome. I was sitting on the site for a while trying to make a decision :razz:

[FragFactory]

I made a mistake, my comments were meant to be about this piece... sorry.

http://hosting.fleshcolour.com/~fragfact/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=67

Mike

[OCDP]

Ah, oh well... too pricey for the amount I've already racked up :razz: The other piece still looks good.

[hawaiiguy]

Oh yes!!! looks like we did it:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

OCDP I love the idea of a frag swap! I'll nurture mine with care and when the time is right, we'll frag n' swap!!

[OCDP]

Yup, free shipping, can't go wrong there.

A frag swap will be in order when the time comes, :D

[albert_dao]

Okay guys, deadline is today. Get your requests in!

Oh yeah, another payment option which is probably the most convenient is to pay Mike directly once shipping has been scheduled.

Talk to you guys later tonight once I get home from school.

[OCDP]

Here's my list one last time for you..

Zoanthids:

1.) Candy Apple Zoo (20$)
2.) Yellow & Red Zoo (24$)

What's the scoop on this thing? Ordered yet? Who are we paying and when?

Not being pushy, just curious as to what's goin on! Let us know when you get a moment Albert. Thanks :biggrin:

[andestang]

Wondering the same ...What's the scoop on this thing? Ordered yet? Who are we paying and when?

Not being pushy, just curious as to what's goin on! Let us know when you get a moment Albert. Thanks :biggrin:

[albert_dao]

Alright guys, I've Pm'd Mike and am waiting for an invoice of sorts. Everyone involve has to get their payment arrangements together now either through paying Mike directly or bringing the cash to me (Paypal works too, PM me for that.)

[Snappy]

Albert,
Maybe you can get them to add the frag I was promised when they sponsered the AP March TOTM. The dollar amount was for $50 but they said it would cost me $70 to ship it, so I of course never had it shipped. I started a thread several weeks ago for a Calgary group order but only had one response at that time.

[FragFactory]

Greg

I am sorry to hear that. I thought Derek had taken care of that issue, as we purchased fragfactory from him after the fact.

Irregardless I will honor his commitment and sort the issue out with him, so please feel free to order any livestock you want and I will credit you the 50 dollars.

Everyone :)

The invoices are pretty easy. Just add 7% GST to your order and either paypal me or albert.

PM me for my paypal email address. The other way to do it, as two people have done is to check out through the store and select free shipping and in the comments section add Calgary group order.

Hopefully we can get this organized soon and ship out before the long weekend as I don't want to ship over the holidays as there are more chances of delays and such.

Thanks
Mike

[OCDP]

Common folks, get your orders in!

[Quagmire]

Paid up yesterday :)

[hawaiiguy]

I'm all paid up through the site.

Just so there's no confusion on your end albert, I had to replace the purple and green centre/bright green skirt zoo (product code 14) since it was out of stock. Instead I ordered the orange center zoos (product code ORA94).

Thank you I appreciate that. I had asked for a pink alien eye, however if you don't have that can you please just add in a colourful (pink preferably) acro frag or two to Alberts stuff with my name on it? If all else fails please just send me $50 or so of whatever sps you have.
Thanks.

[OCDP]

Alrighty, hopefully it's all paid up soon so we don't have to wait til after the long weekend.

Just to note as well Albert, I changed my order yet again. I added the purple mille instead of the other acro I had...


Scott

[albert_dao]

Okay, so the following people still need to make payment arrangements:

OCDP (you can either give me cash or have someone you know with a Paypal account forward me the money)

Hawaiiguy

I'll Paypal the rest of the money to Mike as soon as I get confirmation of those payments.

[FragFactory]

I think they paid me already :) but I will let them confirm to make sure.. I don't want to confuse handles with real names :) ehehhe

Mike

[OCDP]

I have paid Mike via e-mail money transfer. I'm good to go

[hawaiiguy]

I've also paid through paypal on the fragfactory site.

[albert_dao]

Okay, Mike, I'll have the money to you sometime tommorow (my friend owes me Paypal money so he's going to cough it up).

[andestang]

my order is all payed up.

[albert_dao]

Alright, looks like we're all done and done! When can you ship Mike? Thursday would be awesome for me since I don't have work.

[OCDP]

Good stuff :cool:

[andestang]

Any shipping date/time yet. Like a kid waiting for candy :mrgreen:

[FragFactory]

We won't be able to make it on Thursday, and Friday is definetly a no go as its a holiday.

What do you guys prefer? The Weekend or early next week mon/tues?

Mike

[OCDP]

The sooner the better for me.. not sure about everyone else. At the same time, it's no biggy if it's not out til next week. So I guess I don't really care hah

[andestang]

I guess it all depends when someone can pick up the shipment. Next week would be alright with me. If no else can maybe Mike can PM me with time/date options.

[hawaiiguy]

Preferably Saturday for me but that's because I live in Lethbridge and it may be a bit difficult for me to get away for 5 hours on a weekday to pick up... I can work around whatever is decided though.

[Quagmire]

Anytime is good for me.But I think Albert works Sat and Sun.So if we want them on the weekend someone else may have to go to the airport.

[albert_dao]

Yeah, if it's a weekend, someone else will have to pick up.

[OCDP]

So what's the scoop now then, if any?

[FragFactory]

Let me know guys :)

I see that Albert is working on the weekend, so why don't I put it on a plane Monday or Tuesday morning..

I can put it on the 11:40am direct flight arriving at 1:55pm. Same flight on both days.

Let me know which one you guys prefer.. :) If you prefer evening delivery I can put it on the 5:45 direct flight arriving at 8:00pm.

Mike

[andestang]

I could pick it up on tuesday afternoon and then swing by Alberts work if he is working, or evening.

[albert_dao]

I'm fine with that.

[hawaiiguy]

Hey Mike,

I'm just wondering if I'm qualified for that 150$ giveaway?

John

[albert_dao]

So is Tuesday a go?

[andestang]

Yes I can do a tuesday and pick up. Just need to know what everyone else would like to do to receive theirs. I'm going to drop off Alberts at his work.

[hawaiiguy]

I could head up tues afternoon... Do you have a phone number that I can reach you at so I can let you know when I leave lethbridge? Is there a particular time that will or will not work for you?

[FragFactory]

Okay so Tuesday is a GO!! :)

Mike

[Quagmire]

You can drop mine off with Albert,if its ok with him.I only live a few minutes from Golds.

[FragFactory]

We just got two awesome shipments this weekend if aybody want to add anything to their orders before we ship out. Just let me know by days end on monday..

Mike

[andestang]

Added to order :eek:

[andestang]

John, sent you PM.

[FragFactory]

Got your order and placed it with your other one :)

Mike

[Robw]

Can you drop mine off at Gold's with Albert, if its ok with him? I can pick it up Tuesday evening.

Rob

[G1GY]

Can you drop mine off at Gold's with Albert, if its ok with him? I can pick it up Tuesday evening.

Rob

Albert won't be there on Tuesday evening and I'm picking his stuff from there for him. If you want, I can pick yours up also and you can stop by my place (I live in rundle close to sunridge mall) in the evening to grab it.

Just let me know. :)

[Railskinner]

is this the 1st order that is still on going or is it another that started up?

[G1GY]

is this the 1st order that is still on going or is it another that started up?

The first one. :)

[albert_dao]

Just to confirm Gary's post, he'll be taking up the slack on my presence at the store around 4:30 since I have exams in the evening.

[FragFactory]

Last day to get any orders in :) as I am gonna be taking a box full of goodies to the airport tommorow morning..

Mike

[andestang]

I'll meet everyone at Gold's around 3:30 if everything goes OK at the airport. I'll be in a red Caravan or in side (if not to busy)

[OCDP]

Hm, I can't get to Gold's on Tuesday at that time.

Gary, what are the chances that you could hold on to mine for a little while on Tuesday? I could be around sometime after dinner or something... if that's okay with you. Otherwise, I'm not sure what to do now haha.

[albert_dao]

Change in plans. Gary had a family emergency. I'll need to have someone hold my frags for me. Who can swing?

[OCDP]

Hmm, I'm in a pickle too. I don't get off work until 4 and I'll be at home (NE, Monterey) around 5ish.. any chance someone could hold mine for a few hours as well?

[albert_dao]

Or nevermind, my frags can be left at the store. Just leave them with Dave and he'll take care of it for me.

[FragFactory]

Last chance to get any last order in :) Will get back later tonight with flight confirmation!


Forgot to ask.. Who should I address the box to? i.e. who is picking it up??

Thanks for the orders guys!!!
Mike

[OCDP]

So, any one of you fellas able to hang on to my frags for a couple hours? Or, as an absolute last resort I could give you my address and given weather you can leave the bags outside for me.. they'd only be there a couple hours or so anyways.

If someone can help me out, please shoot me a PM. Thanks. I'm in desperate need of help now lol

[Quagmire]

I'll meet everyone at Gold's around 3:30 if everything goes OK at the airport. I'll be in a red Caravan or in side (if not to busy)

Sounds good to me,and I can hold Scotts frags for him as well.

[FragFactory]

Okay flight is confirmed...

West jet flight leaving toronto a 11:40am arriving in Calgary at 1:55

Flight number 671

Airway Bill # ELS YYZ 0449 0430

Package is addressed to Mike Anderson!!

Enjoy your pieces guys..

Mike

[andestang]

So as stated earlier I will be at Golds around 3 - 3:30 PM if no problems at the airport. Some have PM'd me if they will be there or not, if you have not try to let me know. Also if someone else is picking up for you let me know who.
cheers, Mike.

[muck]

**Holey Shat!!**

You guys finally settled on a date.. only 11 pages later.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[andestang]

Drinking while you wait helps :lol:

[Snappy]

I hadn't checked this thread for a few days as I was under the impression that Albert was picking up my frags for me. I did end up going to Gold's but couldn't make it until 4:30 and there was no sign of anybody.
Does anyone know who ended up with my frags?
Thanks,

[EmilyB]

Yah I took em. :lol:



J/K, I think maybe Andestang has them.

[Quagmire]

well the Zoa's I got are all opening up and looking good.2 out of the 4 have alot more polyps than advertised on the Frag Factory web site.Thanks Mike :multi:

[OCDP]

well the Zoa's I got are all opening up and looking good.2 out of the 4 have alot more polyps than advertised on the Frag Factory web site.Thanks Mike :multi:

Ditto. 3 out of 4 frags are open of mine. And I also have more polyps than advertised as well. I am pretty pleased with it all, and thanks again Quagmire for dropping the frags off.

[prosnow]

so who was all @ golds @ 3:30, lol...i was there by fluke...and i didnt even remember about the frag factory order untill I thought about it when i was there... how'd all the frags turn out??? i was the dude in the red shirt backwards hat, muahah

[OCDP]

Well, unfortunately I lost both SPS frags overnight. They both RTN'd on me :cry: The Electric Green Mille came a little beaten up, brances were broken/breaking and the tissue was falling off. Ahh well!

[Robw]

I would like to say thanks to Albert for arranging this group buy and Ande for picking it up at the airport. So far both of my frags are looking good. The electric green mille is nice and bright. The purple blue stag is some what brown. I guess I will have to wait for it to color up again.

[OCDP]

Would you put me on a waiting list for a frag of your mille? :razz: I lost that one. I was looking forward to seeing that piece.

[Robw]

Scott, I would be glad to put you on the waiting list. But at the rate my corals grow it may be a year or more :)

[OCDP]

Heh, I know what you mean... feels like my SPS grow very slowly as well. Anyhow, thanks for keeping me in mind ;) Good luck with the corals.

[albert_dao]

Sooooo, who has my frags?

[FragFactory]

Scott..

Next order I will put a milli in for you since you lost it :) Just remind me :)

Mike

[EmilyB]

My frags look great, I just floated the bag and put them in.

[Snappy]

Sooooo, who has my frags?
Sorry Albert, not me.

[OCDP]

Thanks a lot Mike. I really appreciate that :smile:

[andestang]

Greg & Albert, I PM'd & e-mailed Mike.

[albert_dao]

Okay, well, next time you're around, if you could jsut drop off the frag, that would be great. Dave can take care of them if I'm not there.

That or what part of town are you in?

Also, Greg, do you want the frags left with me at the store also?

[andestang]

Albert, check your PM.

[FragFactory]

So is everything sorted out? Let me know if I can be of any further help.

Mike

[Snappy]

Okay, well, next time you're around, if you could jsut drop off the frag, that would be great. Dave can take care of them if I'm not there.

That or what part of town are you in?

Also, Greg, do you want the frags left with me at the store also?

Mike said he would catch me on the rebound as my stuff didn't get sent.
Why Albert do you have something there for me?

[albert_dao]

Hmm, nothing in my mailbox.

Greg, was saying that if Mike was able to swing by, if he wanted to just leave your frags with me.

And yes, I do have a frag for you. Let me know when you see somehting you want.
