Bump, got a clump of chaeto left, as well as one more bundle of red grape and some ulva left as well.


Buyer Beware :headache:
I posted positive feedback accidentally ? when I really meant NEUTRAL
Hopefully an Admin can delete my previous feedback error.

I though I was getting a great deal buying Grape macro algae from sogreedy23.
Seeing the portion of chaeto pictured, I though I would get an equal amount of Grape.
After a shipping quote, I asked if I would get roughly the size of a sandwich bag.
He ?s only reply was that he had to get some sandwich bags.

Still assuming I was getting a good deal, I sent my $11 buck which included shipping.
It arrived Saturday and I was shocked at the amount that I had received.
Basically two 4? twigs of grapes, a free square inch of Ulva, and 2 leaves from a caulerpa.
Not even near to the amount of the macro algae he had in the picture.

Although I was upset and stated it on his feedback, I still gave his a POSITIVE rating.
He then PM?s me back to piss and moan about the positive rating I still granted him.
He said in his PM ?You made an unfair assumption that you'd be getting more, how is that my fault?
- I use regular sandwich sized baggies and the portions to be sold are pictured?

I am therefore informing all future prospective buyers.
I am changing my rating for the sale to NEUTRAL.
I still will not give him a negative, only because he did ship it quickly.

I though his name sogreedy23, was just a way of being comical.
I unfortunately now realized that the name SO GREEDY may in fact fit !!!
I know he?ll most likely retaliate with a negative feedback on my buyer account.
I really don?t care because now the Truth is out for everyone to see.

Here's a picture of what he sent me:

Wow dude really, GTFO of my thread with your bs. YOU made a false assumption about how much you were getting and are mad at me because you ASSUMED you were getting a full baggie of red grape when I specifically said the portions were as pictured. There is obviously a placeholder for where the picture was and it was removed without my knowledge. Had you said that there was no picture of the given portion, I would have happily shown you the picture. There was no basis on which for you to feel as though you would be getting a baggie FULL of it.

"Basically two 4? twigs of grapes, a free square inch of Ulva, and 2 leaves from a caulerpa.

A, thats the portion size of red grape thats for sale. B, the ulva was free and I figured you could use it, even though it was bigger than a square inch. C, there is NO caulerpa pictured or even forsale on this thread, so WTF are you even talking about. I gave that to you, obviously not charging for it, just because I did what I could. The caulerpa hasn't even taken hold in my tank you, so IDK what you're complaining about with that.

I'm not going to give you a negative feedback because its really not even worth it. I think you need to develop a realistic expectation for what you were buying. Not ONCE did I say that I'd give you a full baggie, not once.

For future buyers, please look at the rest of my feedback. Hopefully some of the people I have done business with in relation to this thread will back me up when I say I ALWAYS give freebies and I am an upfront and honest kid.

For the record, "sogreedy" has nothing to do with my demeanor or personality. Its in reference to a clothing brand, so thanks, enough with the cheap personal shots.

Macro Algae

Sogreedy, fast reply, fast shipping, cheap prices including Priority shipping. I paid $16 and got a nice healthy mix of all three. No complaint with the quality or quantity. Bump up for him! :grouphug: Lfs it would have been $12 for a small clump of only chaeto no complaints from me.
