well between him and I, from what the emails sound like my correct corals will be shipped ALONG with a future order so what I was getting at was is he going to count my orders $ towards the 300$ minimum.

I'm guessing not though.

This isnt against Burc specifically but you should get what you payed for....mistakes can happen but they should be corrected. Where can you order something specific...receive something completely different and than have to spend more money to get what you originally ordered?



umm Guess you never been to a massage parlor.. LOL

Well somebody still has to order and spend money to get to this 300$ and I think for those of us who are willing to spend a little more money to get something else should be allowed the opportunity to wait for Burc to get more coral in.
The point is there are some of us who still want to order something, so why not put the replacement coral in the same box. But let us wait for more stuff to choose from! Im not saying August or something, but at least lets wait for the 2nd may order or even the first june order to come in before we finalize anything.
I want more to choose from.

It's very unlikely that you'll ever get all the frags you ordered from Burc. I have done a few orders and every order had frags missing or other frags that were not ordered were sent to replace stuff he didn't have at the time the frags were shipped. One time he sent a big rock that had nothing on it....lol. All these orders happened within the last 6 months.

It almost looks to me that he doesn't send all the frags on purpose. This way people are forced to place another order to get the missing frags. The problem for me was that on that next order other frags were missing and it's basically a never ending story.


If I were you I would get my money back unless you enjoy gambling. If you order x frag thats exactly what you should get specially after he confirms that x frag is in stock.

...rewarding poor service with more business seems odd to me. perhaps it was a simple mistake and it will all work out in the end. I could be wrong of course...

Wonder how many times this needs to be said in the same thread before people stop saying it. We all know what were doing, gamble or not its still cheaper then LFS

I personally think that threads like this should not be allowed because he is NOT a sponsor of this forum.
