I just got this reply from the vendor:

Hey Chris. We do still have it available at $250. No current pictures though.... I will get one to you asap.
I also asked him for lineage. He said he is gonna try to make it to the farm today and get some pic's.

I'll have to take a pic of my orenji frag.....I got mine from Ian and it is awesome......the light blue and orange combination is sweet....I originally purchased it thinking that the pics that I saw on the internet were all somewhat photoshopped, but my frag is insane. I've seen a lot of orange chalices and some have blue in them, but none have only those two colors with the level of pop that the original had.....

It was either that, the bahama mama or the bpc ft. It was a tough decision but I needed the money at the time.

Amazing! How many times did you frag it before you sold it? Mine has nowhere near that amount of blue in it yet, and I can only assume it came form that piece haha.

only fragged it once (your piece) before I let the colony go.

was that me that got the colony frank? =)

yeah, what was left of it after it was fragged. It was more of a mega booger than a mini colony :) as I recall though, I gave it to you for a good price. that's gotta count for something.

I just got a pic that isn't current but it is of the colony. He said he got his from a guy named Eric who was the originator according to him.

So let me clear this up a bit. I am the vendor in question here and this is the story I got. I recieved my frag from Cory Lo who is a rep for Hakari in 12/08 and he claims to be friends with Eric the reefer who originated the piece, which is where it came from. Cory brought the piece, along with a few others from Eric, into an LFS I was working at and I snagged it on the spot. The picture that skinz has shared was taken 11/09. SEAMAX price of $250 pretty amazing for the colony if I don't say so myself....I can't believe no one jumped on it.

sounds pretty sweet to me! Should have jumped on it!

So now this brings up another question; which orenji is the one that Ktar was selling and is it lineaged back to the piece from Eric the reefer? Either way, the coral is insanely nice!
