ORA Frag price list

I didn't know if this would be available, but does anyone have a ORA price list for frags? There is an LFS near me (1 hr away) that I want to check their prices against but I have not been able to find a listing. I could go through the different sites and compile one, but why re-invent the wheel if one is already available... .

Why frag list? can't you just order online instead? you get a frag less than an inch for $1000K at the LFS.

well yes I could just order online, but then there is the additional shipping cost. This LFS is basically on the way to go visit family. I figured why not save a little on the shipping and just pick some stuff up when I drive through next.

Also if at all possible, I like to support the LFS because if people don't, the LFS will just fade away. As long as they are competitive with online retailers I would rather buy local. I am just looking for a comparison sheet to see how competitive they are the next time I drive through.

ORA does not sell to the public. Prices for their frags are going to vary from store to store, and website to website.

tthnow - you seem to have something against LFS in general. Now maybe the ones near you aren't worth going to, but I have been to MANY LFS that were not overpriced, had great selections, and knowledgeable employees.

Dude - the prices here are highly inflated. Maybe I should move where you live, because I can tell you the prices here are out of control. I meet a local reefer here 2 weeks ago for some frags. He agreed with me 100%. He said he would also not pay those kind of prices.

ORA is a great for the hobby. All aquacultured and have very good fish and corals. Cost more, but you don't destroy the environment.
