So I previously posted a beware of mr.coral thread after an order went bad for no apparent reason. I don't know why the guy never shipped my order. But it was about 7/31/14 is the paypal payment, he said lets wait a couple weeks for the frags to heal. Okay, fast forward to now, never shipped a thing at all. After about 2 months of getting similar responses to letting them heal, he stopped responding all together, let his inbox fill up and has ignored all emails I send, everytime I get another email for him via facebook, ebay, etc. So he took my $190 and I got nothing to show for it, except my now part time job of following him everywhere to post my review.
I just filed a better business bureau complaint, we'll see where that goes. As for trying to get money back, be careful on paypal if your using a balance and not a credit card to make the payment. read the fine print. Mr.coral got lucky on my dime.

Mr. Coral
1507 West Patrick Street

Complaint Description:
I ordered $190 worth of coral from Mr.Coral on 7/31/14. He never shipped the coral, and has not responded to any of my attempts to contact him. Mr.coral advertised on a public forum called Reef2reef.com where I located him. He was a sponsor at that time. I ordered $190 worth of coral from him. I paid through paypal.com on 7/31/2014 and he has not shipped anything. For the last couple months I have been writing messages through facebook and any email I can find for him. He has not responded at all. He continues to post items for sale on facebook etc. I know he is also known as thecoralfarmer on ebay.com.
Your Desired Resolution:
I am requesting a full refund of $190.
