FS Coral for charity $10 per frag

[Deadly-Teddly]

your inbox = full :[ lol

[ucbearcats]

oh mayne i totally forgot about that.

and my dad apparently cant even tell what a box is since he brought home a bunch of media mail boxes.... so since he couldnt figure out how big the boxes needed to be im gonna ship the coral out on tuesday. hopefully by then he understands what the smallest non media mail box is by then.

 

 

Hey just wondering if you still plan on shipping the frags tomorrow.

[Mustang Boy]

PM box full. ive got questions about the auction and this

[fishez4alivin]

I doubt it, since he never called me to come get the frags.

[gimme]

fine, I'll be the sour milk in the cheerios. If these dont ship tomorrow, I'll know I've been had. Yes, the donation is for a great cause, but asking for donations and being misleading is a lot less to be desired.

[paneubert]

He is just a kid. Might not have thought out all the logistics of the whole thing. I could see it being overwhelming. Lets wait and see what he posts

[JohnOTS]

I know this has been asked a few times and not answered, so here goes again.

 

Will you be able to provide tracking numbers? I really need to know when an ETA for delivery would be so I am sure that I have someone home to receive the package.

 

Nate,

I really hope you didnt bite of more than you can chew with this...

I have no doubt he bit of more than he could chew on this one. NONE.

 

and if you haven't noticed, he has logged in every day and not posted anything since Sept 4.

[fishez4alivin]

As to the corals in the auction that I provided, trust me, he will be sending them off, with tracking, if I have to do it myself, and go get paid back....lol

[JohnOTS]

There is nothing more frustrating than being ignored....

 

....kinda feels like I am doing business with John at Advance Acrylics again....

ouch!

[gimme]

probably jumping the gun here...but oh well

 

if Nate doesn't let us know what's going on in the next 24 hours, I will contact Audi Best Buddies myself just to let them know what one of their fund raisers is doing to raise funds. It is a worthy cause, no doubt about it, but shady it's become.

Dude you donated $10. Just take the hit and move on. You will probably get your coral but if not its not the end of the world.

[GiantBen]

+1 Give him a chance and relax. There is a big difference between shady and overwhelmed.

like me I am sure he donated more than the 10...

 

overwhelmed.... Really? It taked 5 minutes to make a post...

[luckydud13]

I too donated money. I dontaed it for the cause, the coral was just a nice added bonus. If someone else had a legitimite fundraiser going, and asked nano-reef.com's users (perhaps in the off topic forum) and I had recently gotten my paycheck, I would be more than happy to comply.

 

Does that mean I am not upset that he hasn't responded? No. For all we know, the first boxes could be showing up on our doorsteps tommorrow (East Coast). I say we wait until Friday. If noone has still heard anything from him, we take action.

 

Sounds fair?

 

Not to mention he is covering the shipping. Thats alot of $ to ship 20 odd boxes!

wtf do you know how much i donated>? send me the money i donated to the "cause" and I will move on. He was deceitful, nothing more, nothing less unless Nate himself proves otherwise.

 

+1 Give him a chance and relax. There is a big difference between shady and overwhelmed.

 

then why cant he post saying so?

[fishez4alivin]

Nate just left my place with the frags and he said he will be shipping out tomorrow. I told him to return his pm's.

[GiantBen]

He definitely should reply to PMs/posts here. I just think calling him shady is a little too much. I don't think he went into this trying to screw anyone.

I agree with you, completely.

 

Could they be on their way? Yes they could, but we haven't a clue.

 

I even had a RL talk with another donating member tonight. He has to cover the shipping, quite a lot for a 16 year old, none the less.

 

To the others:

 

Dont ##### at me because I feel I was mislead into donating to a really worthy cause. Am I mad that the money is going to a good cause? nope, not in the least.

[epicfish]

Poor kid is probably freaking out right now.

 

Let's see how this plays out...

[gimme]

in all sincerity, neither do i.

[nanoreefnate]

Hey guys sorry i havent been posting but i started school last week and ive been trying to get everything organized. i picked up all the auction corals today from Craig and im DEFINITELY going to ship everything out tomorrow. sorry guys but shipping to 30 people with just $10 donations has been tough not to lose money on... anyways thank you all for being patient.

 

Also sorry for not emptying my PM box...

 

and btw yes i did WAYYYYY underestimate the logistics of it i just thought that this would be a cool idea to give the frags out then i realized shipping is a pain in the arse. i honestly didnt think it would cost so much to ship to yall. sorry guys.

[Miami797]

No worries, Nate. I knew the shipping costs would be quite a bit for a bunch of $10 frags. That's why I donated a little extra.

 

Good luck on getting these out today. I have a spot ready in my tank for the stunner.

[kdino]

nate your inbox is full again. are these def goin out today. i will not be here this weekend and i want to ensure they get here by friday. thanks!
