Calgary GroupOn @ J&L
 

I'm gauging interest in a calgary groupon with J&L. They are getting in a Hawaii order Friday so we can take a look over the weekend.

If your interested post a reply indicating so and we can all see how it's going....

If there's not enough interest then it'll be shut down.

Here is the current inventory lists - check prices online & consider that they might change a bit due to the stellar performance of the $ CAD.

I'll update them once I get updates with the Hawaii order inventories.

Let's hope the Hawaii order is a big one......

:-)

I would be interested in a few things that they already have in stock if the order goes ahead. Thanks.

J&L web pricing is supposed to be correct.

Inventory listed above....

I might be in depending on what arrives

Well there are a few people interested....

Few points:

-J & L has an invert sale on plus the volume discount as well... Pick up a super cheap CUC !!!!!

-just waiting for the Hawaii stock update. I'll post it ASAP.

-I would like at least 5 people in so that the shared S&H charges are palatable. We will take the S&H and divide it by the number of people. I am guessing it will cost 40-50 bucks shared among at least 5 people.... So it's $10 or less for each persons S&H

-I also have a dry goods order that is at like $60, we need $100 for free S&H. So if your after dry goods this can also work for you.

Start planning what your after.....

I'm in as long as they still have the fish I want

I am going to have too withdraw from the order. Sorry.

OK,

So I have 2 people that look comitted on the live stock order.

hfp75 (myself)
delphinus

We will wait until we get more. Anyone interested ?

For the Dry Goods order we also have two people signed up and are almost at our $100 free shipping. If you need something let me know and we can move ahead on it.

Well I have shut down the dry goods order. There just isn't enough interest.

I'll be shutting down the Livestock order if I can get any more interest.

The Invert Sale is still on.....

I'm in for 3 cleaner shrimp 2 peppermint shrimp and I need some Nassarius snails at least 6

Everyone,

To be a part of the J&L order I'll need your email. This will allow me to send you a link to the 'Google Doc Link' where I am going to start tracking each persons order.

Once you have your order complete please update the link (Google Docs). We are all splitting the S&H. I think it will be about $50 / the number of participants - I think about $10 each.

This is really a Livestock order, if there is enough interest in Dry Goods @/over $100 I'll put it together also. Please update that section in the Google Docs link also.

I will place the order on Monday/Tuesday for a Wednesday/Thursday delivery. (Once we have a complete order I'll confirm the deadline & shipping day) This gives you the weekend to work on your order. I will ask for your money for your portion of the order by EMT when I place the order.

Any questions, send me a PM ASAP.

FYI - For Livestock issues, please read this:
(Once the order arrives I am asking that people try to pick it up asap). I will be home the whole day to facilitate this - as well I will be floating the bags in 78 degree water to start the temp acclimation process.

Trying to get in touch with everyone. Please use the Google Doc link to update your info and order!!!

The current inventory lists are located at the bottom of the www page:

http://www.jlaquatics.com/new-and-noteworthy/

Use that to see if your item is in stock.

So far we have:
hfp75 (myself)
governor
soapy
delphinus

Maybe one more waiting to hear back.

So did you put the order in?

To our group:

Our order was been submitted (today). They checked stock levels & found there are a few fish that are no longer available (as of this morning). However, they are receiving an order from Florida (today) and Bali (tomorrow). These orders may replenish inventory that is no longer avail & at the same time provide a new opportunity to update orders based on new stock (online inventory lists). J&L would like to stabilize the livestock (over the weekend) before they ship.

J&L does overnight delivery on Monday / Wednesday / Friday. In lite of the incoming orders (Bali & Florida), our order will ship on Monday Feb 29.

This will allow any changes to be made and if there is a reefer that wants to jump on board there is still time.

Please go ahead and ask any questions and thanks for being patient. This order has been in the works for quite some time.

Just as a reminder, the J&L invertebrates sale is still on.

Nice!

Damn I. Would like to what time the shipment arrive.? I would like a blonde naso if they have any left how. Much is shipping.?

I don't know yet when it'll arrive & I think S&H is $10'ish. More people lowers it....

Id be down for a small (1-3") green/dark sun coral. Let me know how much..
I didn't scroll thru the earlier posts... any chance to jump in if someone is going to get a large CUC? I was looking at their pre made pkg and all seems to be sold out.

Yes, you can still jump in. The www site only offers pics and pricing. You need to check their inventory (listed above - J&L New and Noteworthy -bottom of page).

I'll PM you on the Sun Coral.

just called to see if they had any fish i wanted in stock and no such luck. I'll have to opt out of this order.

Hope you do another order sometime, I'm still in the process of my build.

THIS GROUP ORDER IS CLOSED.

It came in at +/- $900+ !!!!!

I'll try to post a few pics once its here ....

Super happy with the livestock!

Thanks for spearheading the order and picking it up at the airport.

Yes, thanks Hans for all the good work. The new inmates are settling in nicely.

Thanks Hans , all the fish are thriving and are looking good , very good first experience with shipping fish , thanks for your time and care for picking them up for us. Look forward to ordering again

Thanks for the positive feedback. It was a very busy day with everyone coming over.

A few little glitches along the way but overall it all worked out.

In the future for shrimp & crabs I would require J&L to tape the corners of the bags to protect the livestock from being squished.

I have not quarterbacked a group buy before and I think it all just happened so fast once I got home. A big sorry to Tony for the delay today.

J&L did a great job with trying to answer all the questions we were throwing at them. I only wonder how their inventory lists say they have things and in reality they don't.... weird. I know they are a busy store and move a lot of inventory - so I'll chalk it up to that.

Thanks guys for making this happen.

Sounds like you all had a good experience, I hope to join in on the next one.
