From JL with 10$ (estimated) shipping you're looking at 56.68 for Kent and 49.95 for IO. Still a heck of a deal...

OA's able to match JL on IO, but not kent... But they offer that discount on livestock.

Maybe we need to twist Blkwolfe's arms, I'm pretty sure he's feeling the need for some live rock PDQ :lol:

Andy, should we start a new thread to see who is still interested and get a proper count on how many buckets we need. That's assuming your taking care of this group order of course. I will contact Mike from Pisces tomorrow and see what his prices are... if he's anywhere close to J&L's. Coolio?

Honestly I'm not up for one right now... Little more work than I can handle right at the moment, but it would be advisable to start a new thread - talked to josh tonight about it... I know he needs LR, and can be armtwisted into doing a big JL group order again.

If we go in for atleast 30 buckets, Mike at Pisces can do $55 ea. for IO and $65 for Kent (200g).

Wow at that price I'm pretty much set. I'm in for 4 let's say. When can we go in and buy, do we need to have a headcount of 30 buckets first?

Is that a total of 30 buckets combined, or of each brand? At any rate that is as good as getting it shipped in from J&L so I'd take two Kent minimum. I'll take a couple more if needed to boost the numbers.

I forgot to mention I'm in for the Kent same as BMW Rider.

So I'm a little confused as to what's going on here. Is someone spearheading the coordination effort?

I spoke to Mike at Pisces yesterday as I am now in fairly urgent need of salt, having used up the last bit that I had this weekend. Mike told me the deal for Canreefers is that we will need to order a skid of salt ourselves. In the meantime there's no discount on any salt they currently have.

So, if this is happening in the next week, then I'm in; I'll buy one bucket of salt from somewhere to tie me over in the meantime. However if it it not happening in the next week, then I'm out and will just order the 4 buckets from J&L. If anyone wants to jump in on that with me, shoot me a PM and we'll just go ahead with it. I'm sorry but I can't wait on this any longer, I was hoping to have participated in the December order .. then that didn't happen, so I thought I'd just buy some at Big Al's, then it turns out that Big Al's didn't have a whole lot of Kent anyhow (which is what I'm after), then I tried Gold's as well but they don't carry Kent.

If something goes down with piscies (sp?) then I'm most likely in for a bucket of Kent. I am out of salt and have been for a while and am now in urgent need of a water change. 65$ aint that bad for a bucket of kent. We should however start a new thread... haha.

I'm not in as desperate a need as Tony. I still have a full bucket that should last me two months. I would like to get in on any deals though, but if this doesn't happen I too will just order from J&L. The Pisces price is about the same as J&L with the shipping added in. Therefore, I'll get in to help make the deal happen, but not if this is going to be a major logistical headache.

Tony, if this doesn't happen asap, I'd say go ahead and get it where you must. I don't think there would be any shipping savings ordering extra buckets from J&L as oppossed to you just getting what you need. The cost is pretty much the same per bucket, the only advantage of a large order is getting a discount on the price of the salt which is unlikely for a smaller order. If this does come together soon (although it seems unlikely at this point) I could spare some salt to get you by until the order comes in. I don't want to leave myself short though if this is going to drag on. My deadline for recieving the salt would be early to mid February. Therefore I would expect the order will need to happen within a couple of weeks for me to get in.
