Does anyone else have trouble navigating the flash sales that coral sellers do on here? Whenever I get on here I’m hours late and there are thousands of replies that I have to navigate through to even see the coral. What am I doing wrong? It’s not that I’m just old because I’m 21 but it sure feels like I am

I can totally relate! Lol
I usually just scroll through my notifications and click on the latest post from the vendor rather than going through all the messages. If you click “watch” on the thread it will notify you of new posts.
depending on the vendor, sometimes it easier to just stay on their website and keep refreshing on their live sale page. Most of the time new items appear on their website(s) before appearing on the R2R feed.

I didn’t know you could still just shop off of their website!! I thought you had to just pm them and wait for them to get through 500 other people before they reply to you lol

No you can’t just shop off the website during a live sale, u less you want to pay full retail price..You have to be on the live sale thread for the sale price. All vendors post detailed instructions so reading is fundamental.

It depends on the vendor, but yes many of them do have a live sale page on their website during the sale listing the coral that’s been posted on the thread at the same price. I just ordered a bunch of stuff during the Unique Corals live sale and that included three $5 frags posted on the website under the live sale link. Next time you participate in one, keep checking the website and the thread on here.

I do agree that reading is fundamental during the sales.
