I wanted to put the feelers out to see if anyone is interested in a group buy for nassarius snails.

There's a distributor nearby me in Danbury who's prices are pretty good.
http://www.justphish.com/product_info.php?cPath=23_351&products_id=2053

If enough people are interested I would buy a 300 pack so the price per snail will end up at $0.45 a piece.

I'm looking to keep about 50 for myself, so anyone else interested in jumping in?

I'm located in Norwalk and tend to be in White Plains a lot so I could meet you anywhere inbetween.

Thanks Wingo...but Bensonhurts would take me a significant amount of time to get to and between gas and tolls there's no savings for me.

Chong...I've got you down for 20.
Just need to find a few more people and we're on!

White Plains is no problem at all. If we can get enough people hopefully we can do this nice and early July. At 45 cents a pop you cant go wrong

Totals so far:
Craig = 50
Chong = 20
Falco=20
jtbones68=20 possibly

total= 110

190 more needed. Anyone else interested?

ebay isnt a great option cause of the costs of shipping. since everyone is local to white plains it's super convenient.

If you can pick up in NY, I can sell you 50 snails for $30.00

and if you really can get 300 pcs, I can matach their price as well.

Thats alittle on the $$$ side no? I can get 175 or more snails for around $18....

Unfortionately that price is for Ilyanassa snails. The ones I want to order as a group buy are the nassarius vibex. I've got a half dozen of them in my tank and they are awesome! It's amazing to watch them as they swarm over a piece of food.

I'm out of town the 1st week of July, so hopefully we cn do the goup buy right when I get back.

Any more takers?


Reefman....just to confirm...I contacted the wholesale guy in danbury and he confirmed they are vibex just like http://www.etropicals.com/product/prod_Display.cfm?siteid=43&pCatId=1289
$0.45 versus this site's $1.20 plus shipping is a nice difference.

chong...it's a reguler public website. some of the Reefers local to me in CT reccomended this guy for his quality products. I could use some snails but the store around me are charging over $2 a nassarius snail. Since the price drops as the quantity goes up I figure it' a good chance for everyone that needs snails to stock up. If you wanna order some other stuff from the site I can pick it up at the same time.

house....i've shot the guy an email to find out the approx size.
