Yes, a promise was made. And if money was the issue, not time, I could've paid in advance. Nothing was ever mentioned about "money talks". Even if time and money were the issue, I could've made arrangements to pick the LR up on Thur. We're talking a day here....Thur vs. Fri. You made a deal on Wed and I felt like an idiot driving around OC with styro coolers on Friday waiting for your Dad to return my calls. The real issue here is one of poor communication....not to mention common courtesy.
Wed 5/6 - you: I have live rock....120lbs.
Wed 5/7 - me: I'll take all of it, Fri ok for pickup?
Wed 5/7 - you: sure, call my dad I'll be out of town, bring tubs.
Fri 5/9 - me: call 1, call 2, VM, PM
Mon 5/12 - you: I sold it On Thur.
Mon 5/12 - me: wth?
"money talks"? IMO, that sucks. I didn't earn a rep on NR and SCNRS as a good guy to trade/buy corals from by putting $$ first.
