Guy that can afford to buy my Deltec skimmer replies: I'll take it. Gets to my house and checks out the product. Everything is good, takes cash out to pay me and ask to pay $20 less for gas.
I look at the guy nice and hard, then laugh and give him the $20 and tell him to get out.........................

Tobin, deliver the rouge milli to CT and don't ask me for gas money either.

Reminds me of when i was selling a stunning, healthy, nice fat Emporer angel.....some muppet expected me to lower the price to cover the fact that it was unknown as to whether it would eat his LPS and cost him...

I kid you not...:irked:

Okay, as far as delivering-I just picked up frags for people, brought them home(after dropping 2 off in manhattan) and gave them to their new owners. We hung out and talked, I met some new friends(and their wives) and the total out-of-pocket cost to ME was...NOTHING. Just saying...it's more fun as a hobby than it is as a business.

What are youuuuuu talking about?? You should get out more often,,,lol... I'd give my friends gas money to drop off corals to me...
You must own a gas station, pay no tolls and drive a Prius,,,,lmao..
I do tank builds for a living not sell corals.. I really believe I did alot of people a favor by getting them rare corals that they otherwise wouldn't have found.. I searched for this coral for 1 year and decided to spread the love.. I could have kept it a secret and sold frags a year from now for $80.. But that's not me..

Tobin you are just to nice of a reefer and more so a great guy. Some people have no clue about anything. They can't help it because it was the way they were brought up. :irked:

Reminds me of an old saying from a different lifetime eons ago...
"I'll take a half a cleaned nickle on credit....delivered" :)

god that is old...lets forget it happened

and on topic.. im confused, is this about gas and toll expenses or about a coral (opps rare) that you feel unappreciated for delivering..........?

It's about cheap people.. That becomes beyond cheap and it becomes disrespectul to the seller.. You know what I'm talking about.. Everyone has had that experience especially with some of the cheap assses here,,, sorry just got to keep it real,,,lmao.. In all reality I did a couple of people a favor they could have got on the reeffarmers 2 year waiting list and paid twice as much.. Some people are appreciative and some just have no standards..
