How many people fall for the "deluxe" frags?

You guy know that website looks almost identical to you know who.....the guy who supposedly have a lot of frags. I wouldn't spend that kind of money unless I am able to see the product prior to purchase. God I can almost put money on it, its him.

I call Scam.
Buyer beware.

Albert. thanks for the clarification. They do have extreme similarties if you know what I mean. So really, even if we want we can't order it from there anyways.

He who shall not be named!!!

really it just boils down to supply&demand with a heap of perceived value sprinkled in. Who in their right mind would spend thousands of dollars on a car?! Not me!! But hey, that doesn't mean it isn't worth that much to someone else who appreciates it's value. Why do people buy "organic" fruits and vegetables? Why do people buy $300 jeans?? Why do people even open their wallets?!?!?! This applies to everything with a sticker price applied to it, not just corals.

Haha, for the record, I think his prices are a little... touched. But hey, who are we to judge dude and his willing buyers? As Kien stated, supply and demand.

If you want to be the FIRST to have some fancy coral then you may have to pony up. I myself will sell frags cheap and for people I know I don't bother charging anything. That's up to me and like Brad pointed out you get to that point long after the coral is 'hot'. I like the idea of many people having a coral as opposed to a few. Nice to know if you screw up someone has you covered.
