Any interest out there in the wild for some large toadstools?
Weeping willow long polyp toadstool
Neon green Indonesian long polyp toadstool
Neon green Tyree toadstool
 
Probably need to have prices posted
 
Shoot me a pm with pics and prices please
 
What would be reasonable and appropriate guys and gals? For prices.

I have to reduce some things.

Mature tanks running about 10 years.
Yes, I said tanks.

I'm sure everyone would love a good deal! :)
I'd like a good size piece of each if you'd be willing to ship.

I don’t even know how to begin pricing these.
These are huge magnificent organisms, colonies.
Rarely seen.
Often as just 1-2” frags for $80-100.

I’m looking to reduce.
Change things a bit.
 
Southwest CT
Going to put out some pictures
Mostly interested in not giving them away,
Getting reasonable and fair prices
Shipping highly unlikeky
Have 5 that are dinner plate to serving plate size (12-16”) of the Weeping Willows long tentacle toad stools
They like high flow and good lighting
Have 3 that are from frags a number of years ago and are 6” or so
5 Japanese Deep water brilliant neon green long tentacle weeping willow toad stools from 5-6” (much rarer toadstool)
Amongst a number of other leathers, toadstools, crown leathers, sinularia, GSP about 3 different varieties but the long polyp neon green are exquisite (and if managed right they don’t take over your tank, can be a fantastic background on back glass, and reduce and control nitrates).
Also pulsing Xenia
Bubble tip anemones

I just have to thin things out
Reasonable offers will be considered and accepted

I wouldn’t begin to know how to price these.
Weeping willow 1-2” frags I’ve seen for $80-100 per frag - I’m not making frags, no room, no time.
The dinner plate to serving plate size ones would make easily 50-100 frags each.

The neon green deep water long tentacled weeping willow toadstool would be much more, as much rarer.

Sinularia, Xenia, anthelia, GSP all are colonies.

Black widows I’ve seen go for $150-300 a piece.
Jason Fox screaming demons ultra rainbows go I’ve seen for $100-160 a piece.
The ultra rainbows I have I’ve seen for $200 a piece.
Would have to see which ones would even be able to be separated out of tanks.

Sinularia, toadstools, Xenia, anthelia, gsp all would be relatively easier.
 
If you are going to sell stuff here on R2R the TOS are, you need to post a price.
There is a forum to discuss frag pricing.

https://www.reef2reef.com/forums/how-to-price-it.1079/
Can’t find anything in the how to price forum that would be of any help.
Suggestions?
I’d rather get these into hands of the hobbyist themselves than LFS that will only give credit at lowball prices and I really don’t need credit.

I guess I could search each item on line, but highly unlikely I will find anything’s that are this large for comparative pricing.
And the frag prices are outrageous.

Or I guess I could just make **** up?
But I want things fair to my fellow hobbyists.

My suggestion would be to see what several popular vendors price their similar frags are and go down from there.
Since people here buy at those vendors prices and have accepted them, any discount on your part would in the idea of giving them a break.
Then you have to take into account your time and effort.
Plus, are you shipping?
If you are you have to post a shipping price, or at least shipping guidelines.
Say, shipping in state might be $25+
Shipping out of state would be actual cost. Then get the zip code and the generate a shipping price.
 
I definitely get the no shipping sentiment, but you’d likely do well shipping some of these out. Especially the weeping willows.
