LAST CALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pete and Oceancube - I need you to confirm your orders with me asap and that you will be able to pick your stuff up when it comes in. Snails aren't too big of a deal, but I can't let those serpant stars out of their bags so they will need to be picked up that evening.

Due to traveling back and forth to Austin this week and not getting home till late in the evening, I am thinking of placing the order on Sunday for delivery on Tuesday. I will post confirmation of this when possible. I still need confirmation of peoples current orders and anyone else that would like to get in on this please post as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Chris

Has this order gone out yet? If so is there anybody who wants to go in on an order soon, like less than a weeks time?

Please read previous posts. As stated, this order will probably be placed Sunday night for a planned delivery on Tuesday. Anyone interested that hasn't already posted or PMed me, needs to do so by Sunday afternoon with their orders. Anyone that wants to order something must be able to pick their items up that evening while they are still in the bag as I will not be able to keep them and I will not be able to have them picked up the next day as I will be out of town. Payment is due at time of pick up of course. Cash preferred and tips appreciated :-) So please post or PM me with your orders. Thanks!

Chris

PS - If you order and don't pick your items up that evening, I will keep them for myself or sell them to someone else. And I will sic my killer hermit crab on you at the next meeting! :-D

I could use a couple of the fighting conchs also if they have that many. What time in the evening would you be available. I work at Randolph and get out around 4:00 or so.

Thanks,
Cliff

I am new to this board and have been reading many of the posts here. I was wondering how can one get in on these orders? How does this ordering process go. I was looking over the reeftopia website and saw the 12 for 10.00 (ivory cerith snails). If I am able to and if the order has not gone out I would like to see if I can get in on this and get one order of the 12 for 10.00 cerith snails and also get 2 peppermint shrimp.

Well count me in! I read that they will be arriving sometime on Tuesday. Just let me know where and when to pick up the order. I live on the Northeast side of town by Judson and 1604 as well.

Thanks Josh for the help. The reason for the afternoon/evening pick up is that FedEx usually doesn't show up at my house until the late afternoon. That's the one bad thing is that I check the tracking and it shows it on the truck for delivery at 5am and doesn't get delivered till the afternoon.

Ok, I got Cliff (BrewerCM) down for 2 fighting conchs and GCantu down for a dozen Ivory Ceriths and 2 pepperment shrimp.

List is getting longer and longer!

ok, 2 fighting conchs, 3 serpent stars, 48 blue leg hermits, small, and 12 nassarius snails, how do i pay you?

captexas
Fri, 17th Oct 2003, 07:28 PM
Alex - ok, got your new items on the list. Payment can be made at the time of pick up, cash preferred. It is too difficult to get payment from everyone in advance in a short time span.

Everyone - I just emailed Reeftopia letting them know I will be placing a large group order soon. I asked them to let me know if there will be any shortages or out-of-stocks as they have not updated the website in a few days. If there are any problems I will post as soon as possible.

ORDER HAS BEEN PLACED!!!!!

I will post online as soon as the order comes in on Tuesday so everyone can come pick up their items. Hopefully you can pick them up in the afternoon or early evening as I don't want to stay up all night waiting of course. Please remember to bring your payment, thanks!

Hopefully the bags and tank water won't be a problem. I emailed Reeftopia letting them know I was going to be placing a large group order and the replied back with some good info. They will split things up for free if you have multiple orders of the same things as long as you let them know how you want it done. We will just have to wait and see if that works! :-)

Josh - OUCH! Talking about a guys hairline is hitting below the belt! LOL. That was a picture of me when I was a kid. Always wondered why I have a craving for bananas! Actually I have a lot of hair, I just keep it cut short to get rid of the grey :-)

Everyone -
I will post on here when I receive the order here at the house. For those that will not be able to check the site, you can call me anytime after 1pm on my cell 289-5305. I will attempt to attach a map below but if that doesn't work, please check mapquest or any other site for a map/directions if possible so I don't use up all my cell phone minutes!

My address is 5410 Vista Court. It is in the Vista subdivision on Judson Road just south of 1604 north. Easy to get to.

Here is what everyone owes:
Triggerman Ray - $48
P. Rafferty - $20
OceanCube - $28
Chris Pugh - $12
Manny - $16
Kaiser - $25
BrewerCM - $12
