Twitterbait Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Be very careful what you buy from them. the quality is not the best... I don't even think any of our major LFS's use them up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy-S Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 If your a LFS and youn dont pop into rudys you would be silly, hand picking coral is nice even at his prices. Inverts are pretty safe just um beware of the fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Foxy Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 He could care less about having local customers..... He makes more shipping to other states as is... He flat out told us that he loses money by having LFS stores pop in to cherry pick his stuff..besides...most of his top notch stuff is already sold... just lettin' ya know. We go up on average once a week..and we still dont get any of the "top shelf" stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Seems weird. I would have thought it'd be more profitable to sell locally -- no shipping charges. Guess the cost of having someone escort dealers around and process the purchases is more than shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcon Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Rudy sends all his nice corals backeast. He has always done this. His family owns Java East in Indonesia, And they do all the diving. In the past he has given up 1 nice coral for every 10 average corals you buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
