Never read that in any posts......
Just the rock throwing....

But hey no matter how you look at it, a frag sold is one les the LFS sells.
I do agree on not bypassing the system put in place to keep limitations an supply chains-
Maybe with all this new knowledge they will seek out a Good LFS, it's better no matter how you look at it. You don't save when you get a box that half the stock is DOA, nor do you come out a head if you LFS is not making the profit.

Well as per ususal with something controversial,




I never intended for this to turn into a p*ssing fest or support local or not.

People will order from JL cause its cheaper, but no one seems to mind that. Its really no different ,because your not supporting local stores ,which seems to be the major beef with this.

The bottom line is that the fish I'm interested in would be neigh on impossible to get in locally ,and assuming someone managed to order one in ,I know the retail markup would be several hundred dollars ,at least. I would much rather just get it right from the source and save a couple of hundred dollars. If it wasn't such a sum of money I would much rather just order it locally.

The difference with J&L is that they are not a livestock wholesaler, they Are retail. Also thinking about it, I wouldn't gamble on if the fish gets here healthy or DoA.

Unfortunately by the fees that are required, I can't see it being an cheaper. And you are taking All the risk.
