As I'm looking over remaining live sale stock from another vendor and seeing several BC items, I got to wondering, do vendors like when other vendors grow out and sell their pieces? Do they appreciate when customers purchase their corals from someone else or is it disappointing they didn't come to the original source for it? I have to imagine it's a sign of respect when another vendor wants to carry your coral and keeps your name on it, but that doesn't really generate revenue either.

Bump!
I wondered the same thing. When I was at reefapalooza Chicago I noticed multiple booths have same named coral and different prices from each other?? I asked JF, WWC, and.... think it was top shelf aquatic. Basically 3 big boys. They all said the same thing. We trade corals all the time. Not a big deal. Sell at or about current market value. My thought is they basically, pass around high end frags and both make money off them. Win win

Bump

Adam. Is this how it goes for you as well?

Well not as much lately. I have been focusing way more on collecting and growing out and propagating my own stuff in last 4-5 years for sure. I honestly don’t hardly trade at all anymore accept with my good friend Therman. And With most of our recent trades I’m getting back stuff I sent him years ago and had since lost lol.

Hey Peter,

Always a pleasure. thanks for the post. Yeah. My oldest is knocking on 13 now. Will be at the end of October, but emotionally, or attitude-wise, I think he's already there. And I don't exactly mean that in a good way. lol
