I see you're still ignoring my valid points regarding COA. Please re-read post #169 and respond.

If this was a policy that was already set in stone, I would try to answer your specific questions. But since it was a thread to ask for thoughts and ideas and for me to express some thoughts and ideas and nothing has been put into practice, it is all up for change and finalizing. So at this point there is nothing as per your post that needs to be reponded to. A lot has come out of this thread that has given us new insight as to how we proceed, so you can wait till then and see how it rolls out.:bigsmile:

Very funny that I run into this post(I'm new here) last week or so I was on ebay and I saw a coral label as "mystic sunset monti" by oiab, I ask him why is he missleading people and calling it mystic sunset when the coral really does not even looks close to the real deal, he told me that how is missleading a coral when he is calling it mystic sunset"but oiab version:misdoubt: and not tyree ??????, my biggest issue is not so much that he called the coral mystic sunset but that the coral does not look close to the real thing,there is a guy on reef central (I think coralreef123 is his name)who has the same coral but without linage wich he calls mystic sunset as well, wich ithink is ok as long as you let people know is not the real deal, for me that coral is very valueable because there is almost nothing left of the original colony besides of what i have,and very few of the 6 frags I originally sold are alive today, so my point here is don't call a coral the same name if it does't look the same and it's not the same species, for example monti digi and monti setosa 2 completly different corals.

so your is same linage as tyree's? if so pm me I want a piece lol.

I'm coralfarm123 not coralreef123 LOL, and I just said it looks like the same piece,and have never said it is the "Mystic Sunset", but rather a look alike. I agree that OIAB version is not even the same species and is misleading. Reverse Superman, Mystic Sunset, and mine I believe are all the same, but in all reality I could care less. I'm sure there are quite a bit more just like it floating around that we just haven't seen yet. I like it for its unusual characteristics and nothing more, and from what I've seen I think most people feel the same way.

Yeah, everyone seems to think they found a rare and isolated one of a kind coral. It's only a matter of time before another colony of the same species shows up. One of a kind...original...nothing else like it on the planet. Dont call it by a similar name or you might get it confuesed with one that was plucked right next to it from the same diver that plucked the 1st one. I just lowered my prices on my LE's and am criticized while other charge $275 or charge inflated pricing for pieces they seem to think are so rare... If you want those rare corals and dont want to pay the inflated prices come by our website for the same coral at a much less inflated price. Like our ad states, we will beat anyones prices by at least 10%. Weahter it's called Afterburner or Oregon Mummy eye it's all good, we'll get you what you want at a price that wont cripple your wallet. Buy a piece of coral and your wife a Christmas gift without having to worry about over spending on your budget. We have great corals at a fair price. Come by and take a look. www.oceaninabox.com everything is 25% off right now through christmas excluding LE's.
