Anyone interested in a Canada Corals group buy Calgary

[SoloSK71]

I would be in - new here but have had good success with them in the past.

[xenon]

Let me know if there is anything I can do the help the group-buy go smoothly.

I usually create a custom coupon code that gives free shipping. That saves the person from doing the group-buy from collecting payments. :)

Once the order reaches $400 it qualifies for free shipping and a date for delivery is set.

[Xadieu]

Sign me up, i'd deff be interested in a group buy. Xenon have some nice SPS :D

[Madmak]

I'm up for that as well, I'll check the website.

[SoloSK71]

Well I looked at the web site and there is not really a lot there other than ricordia and SPS and since I don't think my skill level is up to SPS I probably won't join.

[SteveConn]

It looks like we will have enough to qualify for free shipping. For all those who intend to order the cut off is Friday March 8th. We intend to have our order(s) shipped out early next week (Monday-ish). The order will be shipped to me so everyone can coordinate pickup through me.

Xenon, can you provide us with the shipping code ?

Also, please send me a PM that you intent to order. I don't need your entire order list. I just need a heads up so that I know who's frags to expect in the entire shipment.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers!

[xenon]

Sounds good!

Please enter coupon code CALGARY on the checkout page to apply the free shipping discount.

Thanks again Kein for organizing my initiative :-). Really appreciate that!!

[kien]

Ditto! Thanks for organizing the group order Kein. Much appreciated!

[Madmak]

We should all thank Kien as well eh?

;)

[kien]

Trust me, I'm used to Kein getting all the credit. He seems like a swell guy tho.

[SteveConn]

Kein, did your wife use your account?! LOL

[kien]

Kein, did your wife use your account?! LOL

I don't think Kein is married.

FYI: I have just sent a PM to everyone that informed me that they placed an order with Canadian Corals. In the PM are details of the delivery. If you did not get a PM that means you did not notify me that you were in on this group order. Xenon sent me a list of people that ordered and apparently there were 3 people on his list that are not on my list. Please, if you did not get a PM from me with the details of the delivery send me a PM so that I can give you the details.

And to recieve your order you must spell kiens name right or he keeps your stuff

[kien]

Our order is shipping today. There are still 2 people who placed orders but have not yet come forward to let me know who they are on the board so that I can provide delivery and pickup details.

[Madmak]

I'll take their stuff and be sure to get it to them, no worries. ;)

[kien]

That's fine with me. It's a giant order and I don't have room for it LOL.

[DigitalWeight]

I got an email from Canada Corals today saying my part of the order shipped, but it says delivery address is my house as opposed to the other address. Did anyone else get this email saying their stuff is going to their home? Just want to make sure as if it is coming to my house I need to arrange for my wife to be home...

Jeremy

[Madmak]

Yes, I did as well. Kien is looking into it.

[xenon]

Hey guys!

Those are just automated emails from our ecommerce software. It was the only way to send everyone the same tracking number. ;)

Everyone's order is being delivered to Kien.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

[DigitalWeight]

Thats great Xenon - thanks for the quick reply

[kien]

Bubblegum & frags. :biggrin:

[Madmak]

Cool! Small fortune there in that box of baggies.

[Delphinus]

Wow, colour me impressed with this order! I thought I had seen it all but I am truly impressed how well packed and how well organized this went.

Thanks to those who spearheaded this order, thanks to Kien for organizing and landing this, and thanks to Xenon/Canada Corals for the nice stuff! I'll definitely be a customer again at some point.

[kien]

^ditto!!

I have ordered a lot of stuff online and I have to say that this is by far the best package I have ever received from any online vendor that I have ordered from.

http://i1002.photobucket.com/albums/af144/muzanji/15341FC2-91F2-49E7-A328-2FC6796928E8-7838-0000056A13E673F4_zps865bd843.jpg

Not only is everyone's name clearly *printed* on each bag but the actual coral name is as well. I've often received stuff with no labeling on the bags at all which often times makes it difficult to ID frags that have just landed. Further, since this was a group order everyone who participated has their frags contained neatly within their own bags. This saves the receiver a lot of time trying to fish out individual frag bags. Pretty much every other order that I've placed with other vendors has had some stray water in the shipping box. Mind you this isn't always due to leaky bags. However, aside from the water in the frag bags I could not find a single stray droplet of water anywhere else. It's as if someone took the time to wipe away all the water from each bag before packing it. I even went looking for some stray water because I was so used to it and found it odd that there wasn't any LOL.

Anyway, great stuff guys! Thanks again and keep up the great work!

[xenon]

We appreciate the review.

It's always great to get feedback from our customers. :)

[DigitalWeight]

This is the second order I have received from Canada Corals - the crew there is great. I had a UPS issue on my first order with them and these guys went out of their way to make it right.

This order looks great as well - nicely packaged and the frags are a nice quality.

Nice to meet Kien today and thanks for taking delivery and keeping things warm while I slaved away at work! Your tank is amazing man!

[Madmak]

Kudos to Canada Corals for great frags and a great transaction!

Another special thanks to Kien for his help to get everything in everyone's hands safely. His beer and wings are on me next meet!
