Hey Everyone,

As you know, at Unique Corals, we're all about making your customer experience second to none. We regularly ask you what kinds of things will enhance your experience, and we try whenever possible to implement your ideas. Our switch to 100% WYSIWYG inventory is a direct result of your suggestion! We want to be the most consumer-focused, customer-responsive vendor in our industry, and it starts with listening.

One of the things that reefers have continuously pointed out to us is that they'd rather spend their hard earned money on corals, not on Fed Ex!

Our $35 flat rate shipping and no box charge for orders under $200.00 was already among the most competitive in our industry, but we didn't want to sit on our laurels. We realize that not everyone wants or needs to spend $200 every time they purchase from us, and that the shipping cost has been a factor in deciding to make purchases at that price point, so we felt that more value is needed in this area. As promised, we did a review of operational costs related to shipping, and are pleased to announce that we have LOWERED our shipping rates as follows:

Fed Ex Flat Rate Shipping was $35.00 for orders under $200. It's now $28.00!

CA Fed Ex Flat Rate Shipping was $20.00 for orders under $200. It's now $18.00!


This translates into less of your money going towards shipping, so you're getting more corals for the money! It's all part of our putting reefers first, and continuously creating a better experience for you! We hope that you are able to take advantage of these lower shipping costs, and we appreciate your business- and your feedback!

Regards,


Joseph Caparatta and Scott Fellman

Sweet! I hope you guys set a new trend with this.. :wink:

Let's face it, it's an expensive hobby, and we know it sucks to pay almost as much for shipping as you would for a coral. There are certainly expenses associated with our operation, but we are truly doing all that we can to lower costs and make it a better experience for you wherever possible.

Although it's important to know what the competition is doing, we spend a lot more time looking art what OUR operation is- and is not- doing! That being said, it is always nice to create positive trends for the consumer, so if the market follows, so be it!

Sweet! Best shipping prices ever!

Definitely the best shipping prices we've ever had! And we'll keep reviewing it. The point was to create a great shipping rate for customers who don't quite hit the free shipping threshold with their orders, and we hope this helps a bit. And, we're not resorting to raising costs on our corals or throwing in other hidden fees to subsidize this, so we'll keep trying to bring our customers as much value as possible!

Thanks!

Scott

Thanks! We're really giving it our best, and we are very happy that our fellow reefers seem to be appreciating it!
