This is not gemstones. I could put five stones in my drawer and call it a day.

But I don't want to have to buy five corals when I want one or two.

Especially when they say they won't sell it to you cause there are no individual frags.

Ok. I keep money and spend it elsewhere. The competition. So does the vendor win by refusing to take a coral from his pack. Or did they just witness a customer leave with his money.

It's funny they prefer no sale over a happy customer that just walked out with a coral they desired.... And will probably return.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
