If you get a good deal/sale and you have proof, then go for it. This would apply for both livestock and equipment.

If you buy livestock and/or equipment and get it in your tank and put it in your budget update... you should NOT be allowed to go back and alter the budget if you finda better deal down the road. That's not fair.

I agree with JDigital's price breakdown: The canreef list first, then the predetermined retailers. Livestock should not be applicable for the "used" discount. Livestock should not be removed from your budget if it dies.

It doesn't really affect me yet as I haven't added livestock.

1. Personally. I want to scrap the "good deal from another reefer" and simply use the 3 sources.

For Corals: Price List FIRST.. not on there, then use JL and LA...

For Livestock: JL and LA.

2. I want to scrap the use of Sale prices (from TODAY forward). If you buy it on sale, thats great that you actually saved out of pocket, but take the prices we have layed out on the 3 sources. It will save ALOT of headaches down the road.

I agree but for used equipment I think we should get a discounted price.

Yea, this discussion has nothing to do with equipment.. this is just for LS and Coral. :)

Don't mean to rush you but can we make a decision on this? I'll have to cancel an order if we're eliminating the "good deal" clause for livestock and time is a factor.

Ok.

We are going to leave the "good deal" thing as long as the proof (I don't like that word) is provided.

You can NOT go back into your budget and edit prices when you find them cheaper.

Sale Prices can only be used if you bought the item FROM that sale and provide the proof (if you used a Sale price before Today [November 19, 2008] I am allowing you to keep it so it doesn't fubar anyones budget).

Coral Prices are to be taken from the stickied Price List FIRST, if its not there, then use JL or LA. (ie: Anemones)

Dead coral or fish can not be removed from your budget (SUCKS FOR ME!!!). Be Honest!

Hope this works for everyone. :wink:

Something dawned on me today while I was at the LFS...

What is everyones thoughts on a replacement specimens of they die? They aren't getting removed from the budget, but if the LFS is willing to replace them at no charge because they died within 24-48hrs of purchase, Should we be able to restock those SPECIFIC specimens at no charge? (It can not be a different fish, it has to be the same as what died). LFS stores DO, do this is the real world, so I'm just tossing it out there.

DISCLAIMER:

Yes, it would help me in my situation, however think about yourselfs down the road, this could save your butt. :wink:

Well we don't all have that luxury. Not all LFSs replace livestock, even if it dies within a day or two. So the way I see it you got yourself a "good deal" but by your rules you need proof and nothing is free.

I thought your fish died because your tank wasnt properly cycled. I have yet to find a LFS that would replace fish because of that.

I could be wrong though.
