This is what I think as well Greg..... and unfortunately the retailer was not too friendly about it.

In general, I would expect that a vendor would sell a fish only if he thought there was a reasonable chance someone could keep it alive. Depending on how the topic was approached would dictate the type of answer returned.

Agreed. I just do not wish to drag the specific retailer into this by getting too specific. The info he posted I found very confusing.

I wanted clarification Professionally and politely.

Not with sarcasm.

Then I would say they need a lesson in customer service and if it was me in your place they would have got one from me as I can get so POed when a retailer is rude and I WILL put them in there place real fast.

When I meet you on Sunday you seem to be a very happy go lucky dude and there was no need for them to react in that matter.

hahahaha for what its worth pat i do agree with you theres nothing more frustrating then someone who is " obviously" giving you the run around i mean honesty is the best policy if they dont know the answer they should just say so and no " good " business will take shots at the consumer i mean thats what 2 yr olds do lol.

from a different point of view if im painting someones house and they ask me why i went with the primer i did and that they heard it doesnt last or is inferrior and are forcing me for answers the last thing i would do is make an enemy of them i would simply reply with the info i have and if its still not good enough i would work with the consumer so as to everyones happy:):)


i mean the most important part of any business is consumers.....there has to be a buyer..... and the best way to insure that is to know your product be informative and do what ever you can to make the consumer happy....thus in return getting repeat business or word of mouth:):)

Oh how I love canreef drama.

I was in agreement with you until I actually read the thread in question. In all honesty you are REALLY dragging someone through the mud for absolutely no reason. Now if you were debating about something that actually made sense such as bringing in mass amounts of cleaner gobies or flame prawns then of course you have merit to comment.

Your not though... your dragging a vendor through the mud for a $1000 fish that is EXTREMELY rare and almost never brought into captivity. When they are brought in the extreme rarity and demand ensures that they will go to someone that knows what there doing.

I have a feeling the reason the paying vendor typed what he typed is because you quite clearly attacked him right off the bat. You ask us to judge but your smearing the evidence by removing your comments.

Ewww weird I actually agreed with you for once SP :lol:.

Thanks Man. I appreciate the compliment.

I started to get mad... so I distanced myself from the retailer and thread before I did flip off.

That would get more negative attention than my views!!! HA ha! Every biz has happy customers and unhappy. Some I probably know... I don't want to cheese those guys off by acting the @55.

This thread is me venting on a poor experience I had earlier today. On a retailer I had not "YET" dealt with... and now... never will.

The Grizz 12-22-2010 12:20 AM

OK now I want to know more info, what is the original thread to get some back ground info.

paddyob 12-22-2010 12:29 AM

PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY SPECIFICS IN THIS THREAD.... IT IS NOT ABOUT BRINGING A NAME INTO THIS. I DO NOT WANT THIS TO GET UGLIER THAN IT IS BECOMING.



MOD PLEASE CLOSE.

*Cough page two cough New posts Cough*

Didn't mean to come off as a giant ass there btw, I just think we all forget far to easy that this board only operates because of the paying vendors, posting members and free labor mods. If the posting members are constantly attacking our paying vendors we won't have vendors any more (... Oceanic corals...) and by proxy we won't have a forum.

... stupid Christmas movies have gotten to me, I'm starting to rhyme with out even trying.
