I had a reefer text me today and tell me

“I will never buy anything from you ever again good luck with your sale”

Although I commend him for his kindness I’m a little confused on why he feels the need to text me that. Maybe it’s because I decided that his pending elegance was no longer worth the wait. It would be more then a week i would be hold it . but it is text messages that kill me Thursday he tells me I’ll take the we had planned to meet up Sunday with the promise of an extra frag if he made the trip. Last min he bails So I say hey I have a wedding I’m going to I could drop it off at the parkway which according to him it’s only 10 minutes away from his house literally going out of my way to drop it off for him with the addition of the extra frag. Today he decided to tell me oh oh I won’t be around Thursday work is more important. Which I understand I guess my question is why are you so butt hurt about the fact that I decided to sell it for a cheaper price since you decided you where not going to be around.
It’s my coral my sale why the extra “ I’m never buying from you again” you sound like a 2 year old who didn’t get his toy.

oh well just want to get that off my chest I don’t have to mention any names just venting.
Happy election day

Sorry this happened to you Eric, not the way to treat members.

I've bought several times @Omgnotyouagain and every purchase has been a pleasure. From his hospitality to his tolerating my dumb questions to the great corals both myself and my son have gotten from him he's a real benefit to this community.

@Salted thank you for the kind words I really do appreciate it I try to be as hospitable and accommodating as I possibly can to all people and I get it I do make mistakes myself sometimes I forget and your question are always welcome because I’m always happy to help.
 
text him back and say "thanks, good luck with everything." and that's the end of it.

it's election day! the day that dreams, ideas and beliefs are shattered! Board up the stores!!!
 
You can’t make everyone happy just write hi off. Don’t waste your time I’ve bought from you and felt you were more than generous but very understanding as I myself was slow to get your payment out because I got the worst memory anyone could ever have

This is why I text you that I am not buying anything from you.
Because I am a grown ass man. I don’t need all this extra ****!

I pick up corals from everyone. I am a consumer. I don’t sell anything. I only buy.
I never had problems with any one. My work schedule changes I am not going to stop my life to pick up a $30 coral.

I don’t hide behind any screen name. My name is my name. You don’t have to broadcast to the club that you are mad trying to get people to tell you are right.

Do not compare me to a child please that is disrespectful.

You are doing this for a business this is a hobby for me. I run my own business I can’t stop my life to buy a $30 frag.

By the way your corals are all over priced. That why they don’t sell.

He is talking about me. Not only do I always pay cash. I sometimes pick up wine or beer to who ever I am meeting.

I will like to say that. I always help out in this forum. No matter what I do in life I always give more than I take.

I pick up corals for other reefers/ I have helped with tank installations/ I have donated tanks (125 gallon tank and stand)
I volunteered on with different club events.
I give advice when ever I can help.
I have given away a lot of equipment.
I am not on this forum trying to use it as a selling platform for my frags. I was told by another reefer not to buy from you but I said I will give him a chance.

Now I am done with you and this conversation.

@amado you keep talking about 30 dollar frag the elegance was 50 I made it 30 cause you decided to bail twice.
Once because your friends stayed over to late. The other cause of work. Which I said I understand. You talk about being helpful but couldn’t even make aaccommodation to meet up for something you asked me for also Funny YOU would say my frags are overpriced coming from the person that came to my house bashing the fourm saying that they are all cheep and don’t buy. That Acc was the worst never buy from them coming from a seasoned reefer like yourself Seemed unexpected but anyways your the one who texted that say “oh 50 for an elegance is good deal “ haha lol
**** I even texted you saying good luck with your tank after everything. But you wanted to prove to me you are childish so you come on here and plea your case made sure to tell all of your good dead’s no one knew it was you I and didn’t mention who it was but since you wanted to out yourself that’s fine with me. So you have yourself a blessed morning.and I wish best with your tank.

I won’t buy at ACC I personally do not like how del situation was handled. This is not something for you to comment on since it has nothing to do with our situation. I purchased tickets for that fundraiser twice. at the club meeting and at the day of the event. I volunteered my time for that event. I help the club and ACC that day for free so I thing I should have an opinion. You don’t know what happens because you wasn't there. You had no skin in that conversation and that conversation has no place here. You are reaching

John at ACc can run my name and my shopping history will populate in his little excel sheet. So he knows how much I spend on his store. ACc is not my local LFS. I did come here you came here.
I talked to you in private you are the one that needed to vent. Me I am good


I am wasn’t bashing the forum. I am a member of a lot of different forums.
It’s sad that I am meeting local NJ reefers on manhattan reefers and reef 2 reef more than the local njreef. People are posting sales on Manhattan reef club and not on njreef. I am buying corals from people from nj on a Manhattan reef club that’s concerning. If you look at the post in this forum people are talking about a lot of things that have nothing to do with reefing.

Listen the whole rant you just said was very convoluted and confusing I’ll keep it simple you go your way I’ll go my way is perfectly fine you know people can have a difference of opinion it’s cool. Like The title says I was just venting you could have stayed Anonymous but we are where we are. So I’m going to end this conversation. With a have a good day. Good luck with your tanks and all your endeavors.

That’s what I told you when I texted you.
I said this is not going to work good luck with your sale. You made this post.
You wanted me to stay anonymous because it easy to fight with some one that won’t fight back. I am not that person. You poked the bear.

You are not going to take swing at me and who I am for a $30 coral. You noticed the people that had your back stopped commenting because my record on this forum is impeccable.

@amado i could care less about your reputation. “Pokes the bear haha don’t make me laugh more like an ill mannered cub at best.
From the message you send me it says sell it if you have to I did and then I came to vent how a reefer wasted my time. You want to to be billy bad ass and tell me see you buddies aren’t commenting anymore yet who’s the one like a little school girl went “ he is talking about me “ stop being a drama queen act your age. You said you are a grown man so act like it go your separate way and be done with it.

I have told you to have a nice day and good luck.
I said good day. Sir
