I got ripped off!

Plain and simple, I've been ripped off! We made a Deal by text through out a week or 2. I shipped my box with probably 7 frags of zoas and he Never shipped his box. Its been a month and all I get is a runaround. I want to keep the faith that he will because I get random texts saying he will ship it soon. He Says work schedule doesn't allow him to get to post office and there is a prepaid label already with him. I have a scheduled meet up with him and a close friend of mine that lives in his to town. This is my last attempt. My buddy is using an hr of personal time from work to help me out. My buddy is just accepting the box when they meet and drop it off at post office. Crossing my fingers..... If he is a no show, I will post his name for everyone to watch their back. I have all the texts we sent...well over 200 texts and copy of shipping labels.

OK. Box arrived wet & damaged.... Mailman handed it to me in a plastic bag. I opened it and bags were just about empty. One bag might be salvaged.... Second bag coral looks dead and like a skeleton (looked dead way before yesterday ). I text and refund on dead coral was offered. Looks nothing like pic I received weeks ago. I'll keep u updated.

Yes, really. That is the purpose of this forum and has been a long standing rule.

If you want tips on how to care for the corals, the Member Feedback forum is not the place for that type of advice. Feel free to start a thread, in the appropriate forum, asking how best to care for these corals. However, in doing so, please do not attempt to turn that thread into a review of a particular transaction or member. Thanks for your cooperation.
