ordering from patrick monaghan, anybody in?

[mustangsv0]

yo,
me and ray from tampa are putting in an order from patrick monaghan. ray is going to get 4 frags, i'll be picking up two, one for me and one for chad. anyone else in?? we split shipping. probably more shipping for ray, cause i have to drive over to pick the frags up from him.

check it out. he's got some good stuff. i'm planning on getting the purple stag, and chad wants the blue selago.

http://home.attbi.com/~monaghan/

victor.

p.s. delivery will be the 8th. i'll pick them up.

[Mako]

When is the order gong in and who is collecting funds?

[scubadude]

Yeah I might be interested....I might want to get 12+ frags...Victor can i get your phone number and give you a call about this?

[mustangsv0]

the order needs to go in before the 6th, i'm guessing. we can all pay patrick on our own with paypal from my understanding. i still have to clear that up.

my number is 407-375-0804. you can call me anytime except from 2 in the morning till like 9. i'll be sleeping. don't wake me up. ;)

you think patrick will cut us a deal if we order a bunch?

[Mako]

He might...ya never know. With Rocky along for the purchase he just may....hehe. I am probably only interested in one piece.

[mustangsv0]

which piece is that??:D

i like the blue aculeus, the purple stag, and the blue selago.

[TROPHYKW]

Hey Victor,I'll probaly order 3 frags a tri valida,purple valida and a green/purple cap
Nick

[mustangsv0]

nick,
that green/purple cap is amaxing right??? do you think we should email the rest of the club about this?? or should we just go with the people who respond to this thread?? oh, how's that new, hopefully a nice purple, cap doing? it looks a lot bleached to me. but it should come back. polyp extension on my piece is good.

i'd like to get a total number of people so we can figure out shipping.

rocky,
i got a piece of a monti, that plates and branches. it's pink. the problem is, i'm not sure if it will survive. it came from a tank that was attacked by the nudibranch. i have it in a seperate 10 gallon, just for it. i scrubbed the underside to get rid of any eggs. i did that a couple times. now i just need to get a light on it. then hope for the best.

victor.

[badu11]

I would be interested in the Green w/ purple edge Cap.
Depending on when you will be receiving the shippment I will be interested in ordering this peice with you guys. The reason being is that I live in Melbourne and I can only make it out there on weekends and after work during the week. Let me know.

Thanks Bob

[mustangsv0]

bob,
i'm not sure when we'll be ordering. but i'm sure someone will be able to hold it for you until you are able to come and get it.

i talked to ray in tampa, and he said if we get enough people in orlando, we are just going to do seperate orders. it'll be easier for both parties. so we order when we want.

victor.

[badu11]

Beautiful, count me in!

[TROPHYKW]

Hey Victor , it still looks washed out but healthy .It should color up under the lights. I would only use the people that respond to the thread.Most every one checks our board on reef central
Nick

[mustangsv0]

ok. here's the plan. i figure we would only need to get the package of 9. i'll cover the box fee. but shipping to orlando for that package will be around $60.

60 divided by 9 is 4. so for every frag you order you pay 4 bucks. we should be able to cover 9 frags. if not i'll eat the extra cost.

so far we have:
nick - 3.
chad - 1?
bob- 1.
me - 1 or 2.
joe 1 or 2.

chuck - ??
rocky - ??
(chuck and rocky, maybe the two of you should contact ray, but if you want to order with us orlando people it's fine)

if more people respond we'll up the order to the 14 package. and i'll have to figure everything out again.

we'll put the order in next week. everyone want to pay one person?? or do you all want to pay patrick individually?? he takes paypal. i have a verified paypal account. let me know.

victor

[fins1]

victor, i'll be getting 3 frags.
- green w/ purple edge cap
- blue tipped acropora elseyi
- blue aculeus

i'll call you. thanks komi

[mustangsv0]

update


nick - 3.
chad - 1?
bob- 1.
me - 1 or 2.
joe - ??
komi - 3

we can still get in on the 9 frags package. 4 bucks per frag for shipping.

but if we end up going with the 14 frag pack, then shipping per frag is 5 bucks.

victor.

[badu11]

I prefer to pay via Paypal. If you get the shipment early in the day is there anyone that can hold my frag until I make it to Orlando that evening, preferably eastern side of Orlando?

Thanks Bob.

[scubadude]

Victor...yeah go ahead and go with you guys order...I will get mine later! Thanx neway though :)

[TROPHYKW]

Hey Victor ,let me know when you want me to place my order and should we referrence your name when we do it or say it's from ORCA so he knows it's all the same order just from different people.
Nick

[fins1]

hey vic, i think shipping on the 9 pack would be around $6.70 per frag. komi

[mustangsv0]

hey all,
i'm going to be out of town till thursday. i'm out in miami now. if someone else wants to take over to get this order in, or if you all want to wait, it's fine with me. let me know. i'm going to talk to patrick to see how he wants us all to pay and how that will be handled. thanks.

komi,
your right on the shipping, i errored when i typed that post. i figured it would be 4 if the total shipping was 60 dollars for the 14 frags. i don't know what i was thinking. thanks.

bob,
there are two of us in eat orlando that will hold it for you, no problem.

victor.

[mustangsv0]

i just talked via PM to patrick, here's the deal.

he wants to have a final order before any payment. we need a list of names and the frags wanted. patrick will calculate the cost for each person and then i'll report that back to you, and that is the amount you owe patrick.

then everyone can go ahead and pay patrick on there own, or if they want to pay me, and i pay through paypal for you. i'll let you know what you need to mention to him when you pay when we get to that point.

for now, we need to get a final post from everyone stating what frags they want. and also the persons name. thanks.

victor.

[Mr Neutron]

if you need an estimate, it'll be about 6-7 bucks shipping per frag. it was 6 bucks per frag with chad.

victor.

[mustangsv0]

[scubadude]

Just paypalled $35.00 to Patrick for my frag.

[MORAY]

Ok, I just sent 55 to Patrick.

John

[MORAY]

It will be somewhat interesting since 6 of us are getting the green/purple cap to see the growth and color in the different tanks. I'm assuming they will be about the same size. I think it will be pretty cool, especially when they start getting 3-6mos down the road. Does everyone have a digital camera? Does this sound interesting to anyone else?

John

[mustangsv0]

george and joanne: (i'm going to call them today)
- green w/ purple rim cap --> $30

john,
it will be interesting to see how fast and what color these capricornis frags take on depending on the system. i hope they look as good as they do on the website.

so who's going to be at my place when the delivery is made??

victor.

[MORAY]

I will be there shortly after but need directions. Maybe you could post an email when they get there. I've had more messed up deliveries than good ones with Fedex. However, I live close to them so if there is a problem I can go down there. Actually, there is a reefer who works there. Last time I had to go down there they had dropped the box, broken the bags, and the styrofoam was in 7 pieces.

JW

[mustangsv0]

john,
i hope that doesn't happen with out package. but i'll send out an email upon arrival.

i'm not sure whwere everyone is coming from, but you can take 408 east till alafaya trail, that's almost at the end of 408. then you take a right at the light from the off-ramp.

then you take a left at the first light, which is lake underhill. you follow lake underhill for a coupe miles, the road will merge from two lanes into one lane, keep going.

i live in waterford chase. it will be on your right, and it's the only neighborhood with a turning lane. go in there. then take the first right into another subdivision called the reserve.

you either have to go right or left, go right. follow the road down. my house will be a corner house.

Victor

Chuck is gonna pick my frags up for me when he picks his up. Thanx bud ;-)

[mustangsv0]

rocky,
chuck called me up and let me know. i hope everything looks good. i'm waiting for a tracking number, if any, on this order to send to chuck, so he can plan his trip.

victor.

[TROPHYKW]

Hey Rocky do you have any extra lights you might want to sell , I'm setting up a small frag tank and it's the last thing I need .Also have you gotin any cool frags in , I'm going to try to come to your meeting this month
Thanks Nick

[MORAY]

Is it safe to assume that the frags are not coming in today since we never got confirmation?

JW

[MORAY]

Hey Nick,

You had a blue tipped acro frag for auction at the meeting at your house. I have a purple monster frag that I will trade you for one of those, are you interested? We could do the trade when we pick up our other frags.

John

[MORAY]

And if they don't come in today, we could do it anyway so we both have a new frag.

John

[MORAY]

Here is a picture although not a very good one.

[mustangsv0]

coming today. sorry i forgot to post.

[mustangsv0]

they are here. so come and get them. give me a call if you get lost.

407-375-0804

[MORAY]

[MORAY]

Nick, I will bring my frag with me in case you want to trade.

Hey Nick, this is for the frag tank for the club right?! Im not sure this will help you out but I might have a couple of LOA's 27watt lights that I could donate to the club (1 of them for sure!) I will try and bring up a couple of frags for the tank too.

[Mako]

Nice frags!! Rocky, I got yours. The ransom won't be too much. :D

[Mako]

Ok Rocky, by now the ransom note should have been delivered. Now, I know you must be thinking to yourself..."are they really worth it"? You asked for pictures to verify their health so here they are. Sorry, I couldn't find a newspaper today so you will just have to trust me when I say that the pics are current.

First your little Rosaria
http://mysticreefs.com/temp/rosaria.jpg

And then there is Selago

[mustangsv0]

rocky,
you should see the aculeus. that's a really nice piece.

[scubadude]

Here's mine, just mounted and placed:
