+Mitch Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 Dremel I've got one w/ a diamond wheel, but reluctant to use it on something large. For sure, cutting small frags would be easy. If I recall, JeeperTy got a tile saw when he was renovating his house/bathroom. Hmm, i'll have to check with him. Any other potential members who has something like this? I remember Mr Cob or someone had sold off a saw that was intended for the reef hobby - any idea who ended up with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I think if someone is interested in the same frag then they agree on one person buying it, growing it out a little, fragging it and paying half what the frag was purchased for on eBay. That way everyone wins and everyone pays half the actual cost! If only our government officials could work together like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Anyone know if they combine shipping? Texas residents will be charged a flat $18 for the first coral, with $2 added for each additional coral. They also allow local pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 They also allow local pickups. He's in Killeen, so I think he'll spend more $ on gas and his time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 It says this on there website: Contact Call us at 512-284-8783 Or stop by during our store hours on Saturdays: 1pm-4pm Austin Aqua Farms 8711 Burnet Road Ste F-66 Austin, Texas 78757 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoly Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Maybe (in the future) every poster is limited to a single post where they list their bid items. I like the way john described each link so you dont have to keep 20 tabs open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mFrame Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 At first I thought - well that's probably not the best way to treat a sponsor. Then I checked and saw they aren't a sponsor. (I always assumed they were). Ok, I'm in. Unless, of course its Bio then game on! AAF has been a sponsor in the best and I recently stopped by and spoke to Matt, who seemed interested in renewing. Mention the club again the next time you talk to him, I'd be happy to figure out some way to coordinate group buys or local auctions through a sponsor forum for him. Great guy and awesome corals!

Richard L Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Matt is a good guy. Regarding splitting frags, I'm sure Matt would split anything when you pick it up with his wet saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnM Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 when you purchase a coral how do you let them know you want to come pick it up instead of paying shipping. Do they charge any fees attached to the corals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 When you pay, there's an option for local pickup. You will be charged sales tax. You can pickup during store hours on Saturdays 1pm-4pm, or arrange a different time if needed. Note I have found they are more responsive to communication via eBay msging.

+Mitch Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 How did everybody do? I got outbid on all of the acans I was bidding on, and won the only zoa on my list: http://www.ebay.com/itm/400428626944 Is maintaining a weekly AAF eBay thread something we should continue doing?

victoly Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 was just curious to see how this turned out. I think a weekly thread is a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Using my old methods I end up with corals for less than 10 each of the ones I really want and under 5 on just some random corals. Watched my list go up on each item, in the same order( and its a random order due to how I sorted ebay and then closed tabs out of what I didnt want), 1 min apart this time they all went over $10 which is uncommon. I'm used to 50% of the auctions I bid on to go over 10 but never 100% Either way I did manage to walk away with a multicolored acro for $7 which I did not list on my above list. Out of this weeks auctions I wanted acans and a multicolored acro to try so I'm happy I got at least one thing I wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Btw mod hat is currently off =) HAHA its the risk we took I won't be listing my items up in future threads because I can't edit the post after an hour so if more items get listed or I change my mind I have to make a new list and can't merge them together which clutters threads and makes it annoying, and I'd rather keep the auctions I win lower prices if possible. It was a good idea though, but only takes a few bad apples to ruin the bunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
