$45 for shipping? It's not even a great color

You beat me to it scuba, the shipping is very steep, for "color not guaranteed" lol.
Does that mean they can really be "ultra rare brown" zoo's unless you put them under 2000 watts of actinic bulbs like he has ?? :) :)

I actually have those got them in a trade with coralcrazed they are nice but nothing great they are long fringed which makes them kinda cool in inofitself but I am not crazy about the color so far in the main tank in the nano they looked OK but in the main which is 20ks they come across brownish turq...

I've never understood a flat rate shipping charge (other then greed - a way to make more $$). When I sell something on E-Bay the buyer pays ACTUAL shipping rate, no added handling or boxing fee. They tell me how they want it shipped & where & I tell them how much it will be. I usually even include a UPS print screen of total.
I know corals usually need overnite....but $45 is a bit steep...
I sometimes put a flat rate but it is on the low end and I usually eat the extra

That's what I thought about the shipping too, that it was kind of a rip-off!

I emailed him to see if shipping to Mass was any less....what do you think he will say???

I hope he wasn't really going to ship PRIORITY MAIL not overnight. If it was really priority mail, it should be a lot cheaper, but the zoos wouldn't do so well..

At least he isn't asking $50,000, and the coloration in the image appears honest,
