That is a long time in a bag:(, Vietnam should be no more than two days. Ask for a water change in LAX, this may weed out some of the DOA for you.
jhale ,,yes you can ,,not aprob ,but im thinking of ordering from LAX
faster 12hr shipping..

Cali.you say 2 days :banghead: :banghead: ,,i dont want any clam soup.I have to give them a call today and ask about the DOAs,,im only getting 20 or clams ,if i have any DOAs in im :bunnies: ..Let me talk to them phone call to phone call ,i dont like tht they come in in 3 or days ..Maybe ill look into my LAX suppliers OR FL suppliers ,Ide rather pay an extra few bus then get clam soup ,LOL ,,

Ronen, take the DOAs to your local Chinese take out place and have them stir-fried with black bean sauce, yummy...:biglaugh: :biglaugh:

You can't get the first supplier to do a water change at LAX for you? $50 retail for 4" max is pretty cheap, maybe you should up the price a little to cover DOAs if you do decide to get them. Two days shipping time from Vietnam to the east coast is pretty typical, Solomon islands or Tonga is about the same.

LOL ,can you see the look on the customers face when he or she gets a blue clam for dinner :groupflip
I know it is typical ,but in 19 degrees and 3 days in shipping = a whole lot of DOAs :cool: its no big deal ,This is the Price of the clams later as well.I think its in my and the Members best interest to get this is a month when it warms up a bit.If it was a not such a long ride for them.
I wont be happy if i get 10 or even 5 DOAs ,,they are a living animal:fish:

If it was money ,then yes ,but i enjoy getting and selling healthy corals..

Does this sound ok with you guys ,
I can still order from LAX and get them in one day ,but they dont have 4inch max ,,
only 2"+ ultra grade max ..
