Has anyone had an experience purchasing through AquaticAuction.com?

I've been watching the various corals that come up for sale on aquaticauction.com and there are some there now that I am thinking of bidding on.

Thanks,

Sam

if you are patient, you can get a deal. Also, they have some pretty nice and large pieces come through. Shipping is also a deal at $17. I've done it a few times. never had problems. Just don't get competitive unless you really want the piece.

I have had three shipments from them. Two were fine. The third one arrived bleached and they did nothing. If your shipment arrives fine, you will be happy. If not, you will probably lose your money:

All vendors will have a problem occasionally. The important thing is how they handle problems.

Look down in the vendor section. There are a number of comments from buyers. Some good, some not.
