Jimbo’s CDA 250

[Jimbo327]

You were on the live too? LOL. I was at my daughter's volleyball practice, and half listening to the sales pitch. Yeah, the corals were a bit too pricey and I don't think a lot of people really want a full colony of acan. The hype was funnier than the actual sale.

Although, I need that guy to be my hype man.

Knock knock...Jimbo327 coming thru...shhhhessssh! Waaat waatttt!

I wasn't sure if the GC is only good for the live sale, or can I use it later on their site for something else that catches my eye.

I won a GC from them when they picked me during a Reef Therapy episode. I have until next month to use it. $50 doesn't do much with their stuff, but I may see if I can stop by and pick something up for my son's 2g desktop jar? That should cover one polyp of a zoa or something?

 

[Jimbo327]

Maybe we can combine our 2 GC and afford a polyp of something high end, probably need to add a benji to close the deal.

I was hoping to get a cool plate, but as soon as I saw they put "rare" on it...I'm like...yup, that's at least $300. LOL. I got kids to feed man!

Yeah, they get some cool stuff, but their prices are kinda crazy. $50 GC kinda covers the taxes on some things.

I bought an acan from Calikid on their weekend auction, and let's see if they will honor the live sale GC.

I've tried to contact them a few times on how to use it, but have not gotten a real response.

Funny we have the same tank, I bought mine from CDA at RAP in 2018 it is 72" x 30" x 24" euro braced, bottom euro braced side armor and star fire glass and yes it is still DRY Hanging head in shame.

Crazy that tank still sits dry. At least throw one of the kids in there and tell folks its an exotic lizard.

 

[moondoggy]

Yeah I was hoping on living in Az. by now.
So I guess I am in the running for Dry Tank of the Month

They will only give GC if I bought something from live sale and only after I pay for the item. So I can't use it even on that item. Oh well. Sucks, I probably overpaid for the item, thinking I could use the GC. No such luck.

I "accidentally" bid on a few things during the current auctions... I have no idea why. I think I saw a pink lobo and though I needed that for some reason. And since I needed a pink lobo, I had to make the purchase worthwhile with a few other bids... SMH

Check you DM's

Yep, lost the auction for the pink lobo and the interesting acan, but won the throwaway protopaly.

I suppose nobody questions their decision making skills in this hobby.

Cool. We'll work something out. Thx.

I think I saw that pink lobo in one of the recent auctions. I knew any kind of pink on a lobo was going to get bid up in the last minutes, so I stayed away. Seems like a lot of people are doing a bit of Christmas shopping and splurging.

They got me with the whole GC "giveaway" win and then putting lots of disclaimers on claiming the GC. Not loving that.

Other than paying for the auction within 24hr, what other requirements are there?

Ended up with just the yellow palys (that I do like, in fact), with the acans losing within the last hours.

 

[Jimbo327]

Which acans were you bidding on? Auctions are straight forward, just pay after you win.

I was trying to apply a GC that I thought I had won during a previous Instagram live sale. They were giving away GC during the event to try to get more viewers (which I was a "winner"), but there were a few caveats on claiming this GC that I was not aware of. Supposedly, it was explained during the live sale, but I honestly did not hear any of it.

And shouldn't you be staying away from palys? LOL.

The teal green ones with the blue-green centers. GCs get too confusing. Same with TSA ones. Can only be used on list priced corals, not discounted ones. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Green palys are the bad ones, not the yellow ones, right?
