Default seacare livestock order

I would like to do a livestock order for a cleanup crew and probably some corals from Tim @ seacare sometime soon. I was thinking this week or next week would be good...as for shipping it is $60 for 10-12 corals depending on size, as to how clean up crew's would factor in who knows....anyways let me know if you want in. I am getting prices and pics on corals + criters from Tim so I can post them when i get em.

I would like a few conchs (two fighting, one queen), as well as one large cowrie if he has them in stock.

What would I owe for two fighting conches then? Does he have any of the large cowries (3"). From what I can tell/based on empty shells I have around, money cowries are rather small (1").

IF he has them, could you include me for 5 Astrea snails (and can I catch up with you for those when they come in)?

$2 each if much better than 5.
Cheers,

got an email back.

money cowries are 4.95 each....He is willing to price match JL but, for the items he is cheaper on he'll have to price match up (seems fair enough to me)...He also said the cerith that he has are of the bigger variety (he included a pic, I'll throw it up when i get home). I am tentatively aiming to place the order Monday, so if you want in that's when i will be ordering.

EDIT: oh yah he only has 1 marg and 1 nerite left too both XL 3.49

Wouldn't price matching up and down like that be considered a form of cartelization?

Not that I'm overly concerned. He's got to live as well right.

I'd like to pay via check (I don't have a credit card). Should I work it out with him, or should I pay you and you can place the whole order?
