Don't you love PM's like this?

I was thinking that those of you who view reeform of the industry a good thing would share quality suppliers with everyone. In that way those suppliers would be more successful. The loser suppliers who continue to supply cyanide caught fish and impossible to keep fish and coral would perish.

Reeform?

I can still hear Preston Manning's voice every time I read that word Or at the very least, the Double Exposure characture version of Preston Manning.. (You'd have to be Canadian to appreciate that...)

After being in this profession for a bit I don't think there are many secret sources. In fact just by the little bit of info Jenn divulged I bet I could tell her the name of the place she buys from in Oregon ,though I've never purchased anything form them nor have I ever seen an ad from them. Of course I'll respect her wishes and not do so in public.

I'm not trying to condemn anyone's practices , just offering a different point of view.

Last time I spoke with "them", "they" didn't have a facility in Oregon anymore. Haven't bought there for months. Too bad, too.

Jenn

I was thinking of Vance.

 

[JennM]

Yep that's who I was referring to.

Last time I spoke with him I had the impression he doesn't have a facility there anymore - was I wrong?

I mostly got rock from him (shipped through LAX though at one time he was the one to forward it from his facility.

Last few orders I had either quality issues (rock only) or billing problems - he wasn't handling the accounting anymore and it caused some havoc at this end. I haven't ordered from him in a while now - and I don't get lists from him anymore so I didn't think he was shipping out of OR anymore.

I don't know.

I only know of him because I use a couple of his suppliers.

You said Oregon and it just "clicked."

Sort of my point. Everyone in that end of the profession seems to know everyone else in it as well.

Another thing to consider is that while one may decline to purchase livestock from certain companies for a variety of reasons , one really never knows the chain of custody.

One may decline from patronizing a company that sells to another because one doesn't like the practices of the "other" but in fact may be purchasing them in a round about way and never realize it.

Yes - you're right. Much of it is on "our honour", and sometimes things change hands several times. It's hard to keep track of that because nobody divulges much. Usually quality speaks for itself in the end - good or bad.

no, some immature infants need to stop trying to drag people they don't even know into their little slander games-it's also an abuse of posting privileges

If anyone gets anymore PM's that violate the UA (which slander does) please let me know via PM or email. Otherwise, lets drop it. Thanks.

[Tropic]

Vitz, like i stated in my PM to you about the clove oil, i do not wish to get personal and would like to keep things civil. Hopefully you will be willing to do the same and not drag me into something that i did not do or say. Be truthful and respectful, and i will do the same for you.Once again, i am sorry if i somehow offended you and do not know where you are coming from.

 

[mark@mac]

Tropic,

If you disagree with vitz, you will get dragged into a personal and uncivilized cycle of embellished stories and lies.

Cheers,

Slick Willy
