Zoanthids on Ebay

Has anyone had any experience buying zoanthids on ebay? Particularly from the seller called marinecorals? Any info is appreciated!

I stay away from ebay for live goods, I only consider ebay for dry goods.
You can get whatever zoa you are looking for right here on the sale forum.
Almost everyone of my zoas came from RC, or a great LFS.

True that, shipping will kill you on ebay, and you get a small colony. RC is a great place to get zoos. If your like me and live in the middle of no were with no LFS, you can get some great deals here. I would also try nano-reef.com, and frags.org. HTH,

I've actually had good luck with zoas on eBay. I admit that they're not the "in" varieties, but that's all the better. I've gotten a few steals on what I think to be great zoas/palys, if they had made their way onto this site some ******* would have named them and I'd have paid 10x the amount.

Just don't buy from ecoralz. Ever.

I have also done well on ebay. I have had only 1 or 2 bad transactions I tend to stay from the few that kind of have a bad name here on RC

I've had good experiences with ebay as well. I haven't heard of the seller you're asking about but I've gotten some really nice zoas off of ebay in the past.

A great seller that I have dealt with is zoafrags. Not zoafrag, but zoafrags. He has awesome stuff, and back in february, I lost a shipment due to UPS delay, $400 worth, and now he is resending my entire order. Great ebayer to deal with.
