Purple Death Paly's - gauging interest

[Der_Iron_Chef]

His pricing IS on par with what you will see on RC. That being said, I've ALWAYS thought the prices were completely absurd.

didn't mean to cause an argument here...

I looked around, I didn't find any for sale less then $45, I thought $35 was fair... They do grow VERY slowly, I started with about 20 about 2 years ago, I have maybe 30 or so now? 10 polyps in 2 years isn't exactly fast...

You're right, Renee. Don't worry--you are charging a fair price for this particular coral, in my estimation. If people don't want to pay it....then they don't have to

One thing is for sure if you put "gauging interest' I think you have found out allot. I agree with both sides on this we all want a good deal and also want to maximize return on investment. If I was to buy 10 Paly's off you the total is $350.00 not a bad return on investment in 2 years maybe others should look at this! Hope you get it but not from me...too rich for my blood. Just my 2 cent.

All the best

Sorry, my frags are obviously less rare then the ones you are selling, Kinda like comparing bronze to gold I hope you can find a buyer and make some money

Heres a slightly better pic...

well, there seems to be enough interest to mount a few.
$35/polyp, 2/$60, 4/$100

thanks again,
Renee

Hi Renee,

Your price for the Purple Death is very fair! Purple Death is one of the more expensive polyps out there however, you've presented them at a great price point....thank you for offering them at such a good price. I have looked at purchasing these in the past and haven't found them at the price you're asking for them....great deal!

When I am in the market I will pm you.

All the best to you in your endeavours.

I think there are some apologies in order here folks. Just because you think it's outrageous doesn't mean you have the right to come here and bash this person for trying to sell something. I think paying 60 bucks for a 1" acro frag is nuts, but, I've done it and I'll do it again if it's worth it TO ME. Not everyone has to sell their quality stuff and not make money. I'm sorry you had to be treated like this....

Agreed! If you don't like the prices, clam up and shop elsewhere.
