SPS Group Buy...
Well I am looking into placing an order from a guy in FL who I have purchased from before and have been very happy with the frags and health of the corals. Here is a list of what he has available with pricing and we can split shipping equally among the group of buyers. If interested pm me with a list of your what you'd like and we can get a total together.
Blue Jewel/Porites from John Reiter’s FAOIS original colony-25.00 Green digi- 10.00 Orange digi-10.00 Purple digi-20.00 Yellow slimmer- 15.00 Yellow pagoda cup-15.00 Rainbow monti- 20.00 Pokerstar monti- 25.00 Reef ready grape juice-30.00 Miami Orchid- 25.00 Emerald stag- 20.00 Tubbs Pink Jade- 30.00 Red dragon- 11/2” 150.00 have 1 fully encrusted to rubble Jason Fox Psammocora- 50.00 Copps Vesuvius monti- 20.00 ORA Pearlberry- 40.00- Have 2 actually mini colonies Tri colored acro- 20.00 Large bi colored acro- 20.00 Large Blue Milli-20.00 Large peach milli-15.00 Orange Milli/yellow tips- 30.00 Green/yellow toadstool- 20.00 Green Hammers-5.00 a head Miyagi Tort-30.00 Palettas baby blue acro- 25.00 Steve Elias blue stag-25.00 Ora Roscoes-25.00 Garf Bonsai-25.00 Blue Tort- 25.00 no lineage but nice coral Green/purple rim cap- 20.00 I am ordering the pink jade, steve elias blue stag, miyagi tort, and ora roscoes and Ben is taking palettas baby blue and the orange milli/yellow tips. Jeff would prefer to ship more corals than this in a box which is why I am trying to put this together. Let me know if your interested. Thanks! |

No takers??? I am genuinely surprised that no one wants to go in on this with us. Jeff has very generous sized frags and the pieces he has available for those prices is another plus....let me know.

I will also vouch for the size and condition of these frags. Can't wait to add to my collection.

Here is a picture of a frag pack that he is currently selling so you can see the size of frags for yourselves.....The red dragon in the middle that size for 150 that is a steal trust me...I paid that for a frag less than half that size. Great guy to deal with...

Shipping will be determined by how many of us there are to split between. In the past shipping has run been around 75.00 which is what would be split evenly. Pick up can be arranged but delivery would likely be to my house or bens house.

Glad to see all of the interest and everyone jumping on board with this group buy. Due to capacity in a package I will go ahead and close the ordering for this time around and will let Jeff know of our order so he can get frags cut and healed for us. so far this is what I have...
Mindytoy - garf bonsai, green purple rime cap, hammer Tim - blue milli, purple digi Rafa - green digi, purple digi, tri color, garf bonsai and reef ready Ben - palettas blue, orange milli/yellow tips Adrian - pink jad, blue stag, miyagi tort I will let you know what he says as soon as I talk to him. Thanks again guys. |

Ok well spoke to Jeff and he can do all of the frags with the exception of the hammer coral. I have listed the individual totals below without the shipping. He is trying to calculate the shipping at the moment which all depends on the size of the box and weight of all the frags with water.
Mindytoy - 45.00 TimGentry - 40.00 Rafa - 105.00 Adrian - 85.00 Ben - 55.00 To help save on shipping he is asking if we mind a tad bit smaller frags that are not glued/mounted to rubble (again with the sizes he normally offers I doubt they will be TINY)??? Please let me know what you guys think so that I can let him know before he cuts frags. Thanks a bunch guys. |

I'm not concerned with shipping since we are going to split it between us anyway. I'm more interested in making sure we het descent size frags. But that's just me.

We are looking at approximately 120.00 in shipping alone which adds 24.00 to each persons total. Is that cool with everyone?

he is shipping from zipcode 32615 to zipcode 79928 if you guys care to estimate the priority overnight shipping. He will be what UPS calls a medium box which will weigh about 12 lbs with ice packs.

I think its a deal! Number 1 finding these locally HA yea thats not gonna happen. Two for those naysayers out there I bought 2 ORA frags last week locally for 87.00. I mean Rafa for example is getting 5 frags for 130. If you are not familiar with what sps are going for lately yo can look on any website and I can assure you that you will not find most of these corals for less than this.

Then tell him to cut the regular bigger pieces he does and for sure it will be a great deal. sorry for the hijack man.
