What is the advantage of the group buy?

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

How will they know we are part of your group buy?? Is there a code or a line to enter the info when placing order ?? Gonna order tonight!!

 

[tunicata]

The advantage would be free shipping for ALL ITEMS. Even the ones with Asterisks.
That is a pretty nice advantage considering all of their invert prices are wicked low compared to other places you could get (i.e. ceriths of the same size are .15 cents on reefcleaners as opposed to .50 or 1.00 elsewhere, ditto for hermits and just about everything else on reefcleaners).


Also, shipping update: The Free shipping is overnight so...It should arrive to my place on the 28th!!!

Taken from reefcleaners.org website cart:

[tunicata]

I'll check with John to see if there is any special code,

but I am pretty sure that when you check out you can leave a note for your order to say: Part of Manhattan Reef Group Buy and it will be put into the bulk package that's sent to my place. Everyone's order will have their names on it.

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

Awesome

 

[James]

Im in. Thanks for doing this.

 

[xxxAngeloxxx]

Why not just label each cuc with the persons name. So it will be much easier to pick up the bags instead off looking what's inside the bag.

Is this a group buy price, or are you referring to the dwarf ceriths? If full sized ceriths are .15 I'm in for a ton.

 

[tunicata]

Angelo-
No one is looking inside the bags.
Each CUC will have the name of the person who ordered it.
It will be as easy as: there is a big box on my LR floor.
Me: "What's your name"
Person who ordered: " La la McGee"
Me: " oh, here is a bag labeled La la McGee, here you go. Have fun."



Beerfish- I'm sorry, I was referring to their dwarf ceriths at that low price-there is no price discount on inverts. Which I think is still great considering what I see that size going for at other places.
I am taking another look at their site and they only have dwarf and florida ceriths.

Also, remember the GB does not come with any other discounts/etc other than FREE EXPRESS SHIPPING meaning we can order ANY invert on their site and save 9-28$

Ah ok. Keep in mind if you're thinking about ordering these that they aren't baby ceriths. This is as big as they get. I've gotten them from RC before and they're very cool, but you need a lot to make a difference, and they do like to climb the glass, so some days I'd have a ton of these on my glass.

 

[tunicata]

Yeah, I usually order a lot of them.
I don't really mind since they are .15 and the convienence of getting them delivered and the lower price even for the higher count compared to other places I could go within train/driving/walking distance (I hate driving, and don't like taking the train...lol, how am I a NY'r?)

Usually at night they swarm my glass. I had this huge diatom outbreak when I was starting this tank up and within 2 days 80 of these guys had my rock CLEAN!

 

[James]

I ordered.

Those dwarf ceriths are cool. They cover the glass at night and do a good job.

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

I'm ordering tonight , what a great setup , good job tunicata

 

[brunoboarder2444]

mind if i jump in possibly?

 

[tunicata]

Hey this is an MR Group Buy.

Everyone is welcome Bruno!

Just post in the thread after you've ordered so I can update the 1st post to keep track of things.

Thanks so much!

-Saltwater: Thanks

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

Awesome

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

My order is in!!

 

[tunicata]

Wow, 20 hermits???
How big is your tank?
I'm not really sure how many hermits are overkill. Right now I have 3 of them and they do a wonderful job. I could use more but not sure.

Why are you getting 20?

Lol, my cart is still tentative. I have like 50$ worth of inverts in there. Since it's free express shipping I'm trying out some inverts Ive never had before like the conch, limpets, etc.
