with all the effort you went through to get this together, I can met your schedule, (and Friday works the best for me anyways)

Same goes here and your poor kids would be awfully bored too, I know mine would be.

Yeppers you let me know I'll make it work. Thanks again!

what??!?! u not 50 yrs old lol, jk, i dont mind what day it will be here brad, not really a rush, u just do it on ur time and thanks for putting everything together for all of us

I'd like add another argument to the time frame debate...Considering the shift in the weather and the fact that there is a snowfall warning in effect, can we all agree it would be best to wait until later in the week?

The forecast shows Thursday and Friday the best days out of the week with Thursday being partly cloudy at 13 and Friday being the best at 17. I could most likely arrange a sitter for Thursday and Friday is wide open but Wednesday is out for me.

which ever works for me... and if not I am sure someone would pick them up for me... right guys???

Thanks Bean,

That brings up another thing I would like to help out with. I was thinking about how I could help people with pickups if they needed.

I was thinking that if people could post their general location in the city, then if anyone needed a pick up they would know who to ask.

Just a thought, but if you are interested in helping someone out, just post your location and I will make master list here so people don't have to search the whole thread.


Fox - NE : Between 66st and 82st just south of 167st.

comming from Spruce Grove

Friday
 

I can arrange a short window friday... Between 5-7

Friday
 

Ok. has Burc Said friday is a go?

I still have yet to hear back from Burc...I sent another Pm tho...I'll keep you all posted when I hear back from him...are we all agreed that Friday is the best day because of weather?

Friday sounds like the best day to me as well. If Burc does ship out for Friday arrival will we all be meeting in the afternoon?

I get off work at 3:30. It takes me 15-20 minutes to get home and then by the time I get sorted a minimum 30 minutes to be at Starbucks...Give or take. To make it fair to rush hour traffic on a Friday I would say I could be there 5:30-6...and I will stay until everyone arrives (which will work out well because I don't work on Saturday's)...hehehe

That sounds good to me. I'm assuming since you're at work someone will be home to accept the package and not just leave it on the door step?

DAMN I HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT....................














J/k....My wife is a day home provider and she is home all day...hehehe

:lol::redface: I had to ask just to be sure :mrgreen:

im from the south west side and i worked til 4pm on the southside, if friday it is prolly ill be there around 5:30-6pm

HEhe At least you had thought of it...:mrgreen:

Hello
 

So it looks like we the group are good for Friday, but has Burc replied yet to confirm? Brad, i know you mentioned having sent him a couple messages.

No response yet...I kind of feel bad having left him 4 pm's since the weekend...he's gonna think I am some kind of coral stalker... :mrgreen:

Not saying that i'm not mind you! :twised: :lol:

i disagree! communication is key when doing a transaction!! as busy as he is... a timely response is necessary!

I'm not going to disagree with you but there could be a thousand different reason why he hasn't been able to get back to us.

The last time he was even able to log on was 05-14-2009 07:21 PM. Could be a family emergency or something...

If I can sidetrack for a moment, anyone care to do some identifying for me? I like to have all the names of the stuff I keep in my tank.
#36, #66(purple polyp monti), #79(Zoa), #94 (Zoa), #95 (Heart of Atlantis), #99 (meteor shower monti)

95
 

Number 95 Is Heart of Atlantis... i too ordered that one. really nice

oh I am not doubting that.. when he puts on sales like this the response he gets is amazing!!! add a full time job onto that and a family and it's just crazy!

Ya that one is gonna add some great contrast to my tank!

Me too, I really like to know what's in my tank. It would be super great if Burc could add the names to the frags on his site.

Can't help you with all of the frags but 66 looks like a purple polyp monti, 95 is right, heart of atlatis & I asked Burc about 99 already because I'm also getting that one and was told it's a meteor shower monti which I can find zero pics of on the net, I thought it was maybe an undata.

Anyone wanna take a stab at some of mine?
11
26

75(candy apple redds, I think)
99(meteor shower monti)

Good news all. I woke up to a message from Burc this morning (apparently he had an 8 hour customs inspection yesterday (I won't be complaining about my job anytime soon...LOL))...Anyway he is going to try to get our order out tomorrow and worst case scenario it goes out Monday.

thurs?
 

thursday?? is this going to work Brad? you said you could not do it thursday as had to watch the kids.

I would doubt that they would arrive same day...I think the quickest is over night isn't it? Either way I asked Burc to confirm arrival date. If I know when they are going to arrive I can arrange a sitter and then we can coordinate meeting date.

i may have to get someone to grab mine.... if possible... friday would work for me, but thursday and monday are both out...

shite
 

I have a 50th birthday for my fiances mom thurs. I would be willing to meet, but the window would be extremely short.... til 630 max. should be same day delivery as cannot just sit in a warehouse as live stock????? does it not come by air???

It won't be Thursday. If Burc sends out tomorrow it will be here Friday, if he sends out Monday it will be here Tuesday.

sooooo?
 

Are we seeing this tomorrow?

Sorry dude, I haven't heard anything as to whether it will be shipped today or not.

hmmm
 

We need to get a solid from Burc. It is important as a businessman that he does this. At least he can tell us if there is an issue getting it out (EG.. too much on his plate, not all frags ready, etc.). Having paid for the order, there are certain obligations... such as providing the product in a timely and professional manner, or letting us know why he is unable to do so. We need to be able to plan our lives and right now, this is making things difficult. Is it always this much work to get an order? I am becoming frustrated with this process and lack of communication.

To Burc
 

I sent the following message to Burc:


Hey Burc,

We are trying to coordinate our pick up, but we cannot until we get a solid delivery date set with you.

Can you please give us an indication what the delay is, or if there is a problem with the order. I know you are busy, but it is hard for anyone to plan their own schedules until we know whats going on.


Sorry for the inconvenience.


Patrick

PMs replied.

I apologize for late PM replies and post. I am having crazy week. Orders are coming out of my ears lol, no complain :)

I should be able to reply emails and PM quick now.

Thanks
Burc

Hey guys, looks like its going to be next week. Tuesdays and Thursdays are still the most difficult for me and if he ships out Monday, then the earliest is Tuesday so I suggest Wednesday which is only 1 day more than than our earliest date...Will that work for the majority of people?

FROM bURC
 

Hi Patrick

Sorry about late reply. Anyday next week works for me. You guys can deceide which day is good for you and let me know.

Thanks
Burc





Brad, I know you are busy, but we need to get this done and finished. Please arrange date asap.

oi! lol! nope! hockey all next week! (WHO WANTS TO PICK UP!! lol!)
