Need to get rid of some coral and frags in anticipation of a big order coming in soon. I'll be updating this thread periodically and will be trying to get rid of miscellaneous supplies as well. No shipping and pickup in Bloomfield unless other arrangements are made via PM. Not looking for trades at this time. Check back often. Buy my stuff!

Ectoplasm rhodactis shroom (circled lower left) 3/4 - 1" in size, WYSIWYG, $15 paid CTARS member, $20 non-members. Will frag with picture once interest is expressed.

If Sass doesn't want the baby add it in with the Sunkist and I will come up soon!

Absolutely Mike thanks for remembering I'll be going to the April meeting if that works for you
 
This thread seems real cliquey, why not just pm your friends instead.
Hi maybe I can help explain things a bit for you if your concern with the baby purple rain Yuma Mike had offered it to SAS before you even got on the thread. If you're referring to the mushroom that Mike talked to me about this is something that I had talked to Mike about two months ago . He touched base with me and I told him yes I still would like it. Mike is a stand-up guy and I'm sure the longer you're in the club you'll see that for yourself. Hey we all understand that it is disappointing when you want a frag and don't get itthat baby purple um was pretty cool

You're just proving my point. If it was a deal brokered beyond the thread then you should be able to see my point about using pm instead. Additionally, you rushing to Mike's defense shows how I am not part of the clique, just a member. Lastly, I am not that concerned with not not getting any coral, just don't like having to get trickled down information.

You made a post and asked for a pic of the baby. You didn't say you "wanted" it. If someone else PMed him between then and you posting "Is that the pic of the baby if so I'll take it!" then it is what it is.

I've sent PM's to people on this forum prior to others posting publicly in the post saying they'll buy it yet the pieces went to the other people. Does it suck? Sure. Does it really matter that people prefer sometimes to sell to others that they already know? Absolutely not. It's not being in a clique.

Continually having to defend my words to multiple people is proving how cliquey this club really is. Thanks for supporting my argument. Yes, selectively choosing to sell to friends first would be well suited for the definition of cliquey. To clarify, what makes it the worst, is not updating the post as items are sold. Ever contact someone on Craigslist only to find out they never removed the post? Irritating right? Also, I never said I was first or entitled to any of what is for sale. But if I am not eligible because I am not part of the well known group of friends within CTARS, then that hurts the team. If it is purely because it was sold to the first bidder, then saying "sold" really helps assure people that this isn't just a forum for the few. Regardless, I still enjoy reading posts and I am glad there is a local community to begin with.
 
Lastly, before this spirals out of control. I now see there were updates to the posts that clearly state SOLD. So... sorry. Chalk it up to being new to forums and call it a day.( I don't want to get dragged through the mud by Internet avengers)

I prefer the term Crusader.. but you know semantics :) Either way I fully understand and feel your pain regarding certain posts and transactions.

Full disclosure. I was told the club was cliquey before I joined and have been viewing it with somewhat of a biased skepticism. I think I was looking for an excuse to feel disenfranchised as some kind of demented self fulfilling prophesy. I'll try to be less cynical going forward.
 
All the items that were sold are marked as such and I even offered you a baby Yuma via PM for future purchase. I'm not sure what else I could have done to have avoided making you feel excluded. Thank you for making me feel like a big pile of poo.

#Mods, please shut this thread down. I absolutely give up. I'm done.
