Clams Direct Heads Up

[scuba_steveo]

Well he has some nice stuff but the only two clams I wanted have already been sold :(

Yep, Pete, that's the one I wanted. If someone here bought him I will pay you nicely just for the rights to him.

Same here ...

Here is one I missed last shipment ...



I was checking until late last night and they still werent posted. Got up this morning and they were posted and sold. :(

[scuba_steveo]

Exact same here

[Jenn]

Yea, me too. Gary's right, as soon as we all decide what we want, all the ones we want will be gone. I am going to pass on this order.

The only purpose on a group order from them is to maybe save on shipping costs. It has been done before, someone just has to let Barry at CD know ahead of time and he will hold all the clams up to a certain time and then ship them all together to the one person. If you are in the group, you just have to put a note on your order comments that you are part of the group. He keeps them marked so there is no confusion over which clam is which.

As mentioned, the biggest problem is just being there as soon as their online store opens so you get a better chance at finding a clam you like. If someone were to just blindly order a large number of clams for a club meeting, this would be expensive and there is no guarantee that the clams would be quality ones that people will buy. Someone could get stuck with a bunch of clams and an empty pocketbook.

Do they all arrive in their own package? I mean, if we were to all order say 20 clams, how would we know who's was who's? A lot of them look similar and aren't they pretty much closed up? Just wondering.

[::pete::]

I never did a group order, but Im sure barry would mark the bags with the numbers from the site.

[captexas]

Jenn - They come in individual bags and they are marked with their corresponding numbers. If Barry knows ahead of time, he will make sure things are kept separated.

[Jenn]

Ok, knowing that is how its done, I WILL join in if this turns into a group order. Who is going to contact Barry?

[Ram_Puppy]

well, I personally want a purple maxima, so I am holding off until his next order, but maybe we should pick a person to communicate with barry, and organize a post christmas order when all our pockets should be ostensibly, overflowing with christmas gift cash. (I raked in 350 last year! )
