Lol, I remember when I was more active on the site, this was a huge peeve.

Buyers would want compensation/lower prices for the travel even if I'm dropping it off part way (I live in NJ).

Or people wanting me to lower prices even though I'm dropping it off fully...like...$8 toll into NY, $5 toll into and out of BK/Q/LI, $2 toll back into NJ.
$15 out of my pocket...not counting gas...NY is like 15-20mi each way...lol....
I just think people aren't mindful of anyone's predicament outside of themselves. I mostly buy from people that are okay with meeting up somewhere close to a train I can get to. Train is only 1.75 or $2.25 :)
or folks going to the swap...

ugh...and no shows/flakes are annoying.

well tobin.. Believe it or not, i've had people come to my house that had to pay toll to get here asking me to give them additional discounts for toll and gas.... How do you think i feel? Lmao :lol2:

**forgot to add**
they were planning on being in my area for something else.. I cant believe people will still ask for gas and toll discounts..

hey

Some people take the hobby way to seriously, This is the reason why I usually pick up my $hit I dont want to hear anything from anyone!!! In my case when someone is delivering something I try to compasate the person not with money but with a nice frag of whatever.. Thats just my 2 Cents..

Tobin,

Tell me about it. Too many cases to count.

You see one worse thing is that they don't even try to make themselves available on the agreed time and date to receive delivery. I guess they expect me to pack the free animal with oxygen, thermal pack and foam box to stay 24-48 hours with the doorman. There is one extreme case that I had to deliver 3 times to get it to the receiver-of course I am talking free of charge. I should consider working for Fedex or some courier service company and get a salary. LOL.

BTW, you got to deliver the Superman vs. SuperWoman to me again. They are lost in my jungle of corals and got eaten up.

Hey people Coralsmania flaked out because he didn't want to pay paypal fee and he didn't want to pay for delivery on frags I didn't make money from nor did I receive and extra frags.. He felt like I should take the loss delivering for free, paypal fee also... Is this Efing hilarious or what.. And get this, this is the second time he's flaked out on me... The fourth time between 2 others that I know of and myself..
Hey I guess the jokes on me for giving him the benefit of the doubt and a second chance..
Now I'm stuck with 2 frags that I already have,,,lmao..

First of all I did not flake on you at know time! I had RB you asking you if its possible to meet in Queens, being that I'm coming from the Poconos.
Here is your replied: We can meet in Queens on saturday.. It just makes it easier to get up later and send the guy the money for these frag.. I'm not making any money on these frags just getting the Rouge within my reach if my tank should have problems.. I do need to send the money by 1pm for the corals to get to fedex..

You then, sent me and email, staying that you need the money by 3:30 cut-off time. I replied asking if we can meet in Queens. In addtion when I send you the Paypal for $80 in the message box, I also requested a replied to meeting in Queens or cancel the order. Firstly, you ignore my message you took the money. Then you email me back saying you want paypal fees & tolls and gas to go to Queen. All you had to do is say, I can't go to Queen, or up-front if you was coming down say if you want delivery I have to charge you, and wait for an answer, not take my money first, that is lame and unprofessional. If your going to post something have all the facts, because I have all e-mails and RB conversation. In your thread you stated send me paypal by whatever time...did you ask for fees for paypal. I would have paid if you requested up-front, not after. I ask for a refund, and you charge me PP fees on the refund. My total refund, was $77.38 fees for asking for my money back...ridiculous.

And there was no other time, only that you was referred to me in building a tank stands for multiple tanks, and I was just getting price. I heard you was reasonable! I have given you a lower price first, from a Jhale, and you still came back higher. So your upset, cause I did not give you the business....so please becareful what you say, cause your foot looks like is in your mouth.

Seriously did you read what you wrote..
1. I gave you the benefit of the doubt and waited a little longer past the comfort time for fedex.
2. I have never brought anything to someone I don't know for free, everyone else sent pp fee.. You played dum....
3.Shipping from California is not free....
4. I told everyone pick at swap unless they wanted other..
5. Dude I don't need your business, I make more than enough money. Have you seen my vacation thread,,,lmao.. I don't get business from MR..
6. You are known for 20+ emails just to say naw that's to much money..
7. I know 5 people that would never do businees with you because you have done this more than couple times
8. Face it your cheap as hell.. Your just one of those people everyone here and on every other forums talks about.. You want everything for free.



And threatening me to put in a pp dispute because they take the fee from me and I took it from your flake ass..

How about this I'll pay you to not ever have to see your name here again..

I gave you my # to call me but you couldn't call knowing you were wrong could you????

Truthfully.. I think I did people I don't know a favor by getting them a tough to find coral or 2.. From now on, people like you Coralsmania can get on the reeffarmers waiting list.. A marinate for a few months or years ,,,lmao..
