Hi all,

John has restocked on ReefCleaners with a lot of good things (including pitho crabs!). I will be putting in an order for delivery during the week of 27th March (provisionally shipping out Monday 27th or arrival Tuesday 28th).

If you've done a ReefCleaners group buy with me before, same deal. Pickup still in Irvine, near Spectrum.

For anyone else interested, I do group buys like so:
1. Send me your list of inverts
2. I will order them (you don't order, just pay on pickup)--if the order is enormous, we might have to talk about a downpayment
3. When the order arrives, usually 10am to my office, I will sort everyone's orders into small boxes/tuppers--need about an hour or so to get everything sorted
4. If needed, I will acclimate inverts. Examples of when this is needed: (1) if the invert is alive, but the bag water looks bad and there is concern that it will make it much longer; (2) if John packs two+ peoples' inverts into the same bag and they need to be split; (3) you plan on arriving very late for pickup and I doubt the invert will make it.
5. I will register all Dead On Arrivals and will take that up with John separately.
6. When you come for pick-up, I will tally up all of your Alive inverts, and you can repay me by Venmo (preferable), PayPal, Cash, Bellagio chips, etc.
7. We will split the cost of overnight UPS shipment between everyone. If the order goes into the two-box range, we'll have to split that, but the goal is to max everyone's shipment cost to $44.50 / 4 = $11.12 pp. So, ideally we want a group of 4 for the group buy or 8 for a double-box group buy. I've managed to get 6 people in on a single box before, but with smaller orders.

PM me if you are interested! I can make/modify orders up until Sunday the 26th.

Thanks!
Joe

I'm in! Just to clarify - this is an order for the week of 20th - 24th, but you mentioned we can update the order until 26th.

Please confirm when we should submit our order.

Thank you for setting this up!

Ah, Minimum Order Quantity. Thanks, Google!

You can order any amount of inverts you like. I try to think ahead so I can have a decent invert $$ to shipping $$ ratio.
