Okay everyone here's the deal. I have to do this quick, and I can't really afford to have someone flake out on me. As it turns out, I have to go meet with the moving company on Friday, and may not be available for part of the day. I was working up a waitlist for tomorrow (taking forever with a very distracting 3 week old son), and then first come on Friday, but I don't want to get screwed. It seems to make more sense to do first come tomorrow. I will be up by 9:00 and people can come by anytime. I'm on west 114th street between Broadway and Amsterdam. Call me first if you want something specific so I can tell you if I still have it, but I won't hold anything. It sucks to do it this way, but it is probably best for the animals involved. (212)866-7627 or (917)657-0304. I do have a newborn son, so try not to call between 12:00 and 8:00

I am going to run the wait list on the fish, just because of how difficult they will be to catch without first removing the rock. I'll contact everyone who was first in on the fish

Here goes your "wait-list"

I am sorry to everyone who was annoyed by the increase in price. I have dropped it again, though there are still offers to buy it for more, I want to make sure someone actually shows up. Again, my apologies for the breach of the unwritten code of ethics at the site. I'm around most of the evening if anyone wants to come over. I'm really not the jerk that Darealdvs1 has made me out to be- everyone who has come by so far and bought something has been given a couple of frags.

Transactions are usually handled differently here, so of course some-one is going to react (epecially when I'm involved).
I could understand your stress with all that's going.

I wasn't trying to put you down.
To me......there's a right way & wrong way to do things.

No hard feelings.
& like I stated.....Good luck~

Please let this thread go back on track.

Hey Phil, starting crap again. Don't make me come up there and drink all your liquor while I make you watch

Zumbi,
Nice stuff...Keep it simple and it will all sell.


Thanks,

Kasei

[scarf_ace1981]

zumbi i pm'd you yesterday or the day before i think. anyway i'm interested in some stuff. is friday good after 5pm. let me know i live on 169th.

ill take the clown pair

 

[zumbi]

Alright here?s the deal. I'm going down to the wire with this and need some help. There are still a lot of good pieces left, and a few smaller frags not listed. I've dropped the price on everything at this point as I just need to clear it out.

The first couple of people didn't respond on the clowns. They have been a mated pair since I got them 2 years ago and I want very much for them to go to a good home. I'm sorry, but if your tank has not been set up for at least 4 months, I will not sell them to you. I would rather give them to a well established tank. I'd like to help the newbies (any of the new reefers that have come so far have been given frags or equipment for free), but these fish are my babies and I want them to be happy. Someone help me out. Speaking of which, the clowns are currently hosting in a rock of 10-12 hairy mushrooms. If you take the clowns and their home I'll give you both for $50

Depending on what is left, I may cut prices in the evening, and anything left after 9:00 PM that I can?t take with me will be free to anyone who will come and get it (donations towards my next tank will still be accepted

Thanks again to everyone who has come by. I realize now as I'm leaving how many cool people frequent this site. For those following the drama so far on this thread Phil (Darealdvs1) and I have since made up and I have got to say he is one of the nicest guys to ever visit my apartment. I truly wish that I had be swapping corals with him over the past couple of years.

I have to meet with the moving company in the morning (10:00-11:00) but other than that I will be home most of the day. My wife should be home, but feel free to call me on my cell (917)657-0304

 

[nyguardian21]

are the clowns still available? i can only pick up early in the morning though.

 

[Pseudo]

I will always take free stuff. So just call me if you have anything left over. I am in the city anyway at night. Always with a bucket in the car.

[charile1]

I'll take the clowns and blenny if still available. And maybe some corals.

 

[DevIouS]

Thanks Kev....
Nice meeting you too & apologies for sounding like an @SS.
Thanks for the nice show piece.

Good luck to you, the family & the move.

Keep in touch.
I'll send out some frags, when you start the new set-up.

Take care~
Phil




Fellas....
if you SERIOUSLY want anything, I suggest that you just call Kevin directly, instead of posting.

 

[charile1]

Thanks, I just called.

Kevin, if it's still a go...do you have bags for the fish? Or do I need to bring my own?

 

[zumbi]

I have bags, and a couple of buckets for people who buy the live rock or larger show pieces.

 

[charile1]

Zumbi,

[zumbi]

PS- I'm in manhattan W. 114th street on the upper west side (just off the 1 train) Call Kevin (212)866-7627

 

[zumbi]

I've updated what is left. I hate to do this- there is still a couple of hundred dollars worth of coral, live rock, sand tanks, stands and equipment and it is free to anyone who will come and carry it away. There are more than 500 polyps of zoa in there- I don't want them to go to waste. Small donations towards my next tank will be appreciated, but are not necessary.

 

[charile1]

Kevin, the clowns are doing well in my tank. Sorry, about the left over corals. I've should have bought more off you earlier.

Good to hear. I had no idea so many people would fall through. Sorry that I didn't give you a couple of large pieces. Even when breaking it all down for free, only two people showed up. go figure...
