I have never dealt with oceanic corals but i applaude your stand up attitude.Wish more vendors would do what you have done.It wasn't your fault,but you still stand by your product.I wouldn't think twice about ordering from you again,if the same thing happened to me. BRAVO

I have to agree with comments so far, although, FWIW, you have enough exposure here and enough great feedback that I wouldn't even feel the need to look at your poll results to deal with you.
Unless a vendor has something crazy like 50% negative feedback, I would disregard the occaisional negative rating.

At least all of this has lead to some very constructive comments!

I'm in favor of shipping company feedback and equipment feedback forums

Think it's well accepted that shipping companies suck and we are all taking a risk with livestock. This should give some guidance to sellers that proper packaging is required and notification with WB numbers etc is a must.

Even if by fluke LS arrives alive in that soggy cardboard box that had newspaper for insulation they should get a negative rating.

Agreed! Boxes cannot be insulated with just newspaper alone! It seems like only a few of us double bag these days too! I have never had a shipment show up to a customer soggy!
