OceanRevive Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 just came back from OIAB today. As usual, the owner is super friendly and helpful on all questions. I picked up a few snails and a yellow eye tang. when I was thinking not to buy a brain coral, he said i would regret not buying it ([language filter], I wish I asked myself why he asked me about that:))). As I don't have too much time to take care of my tank recently, I said that is okay, I don't want to lose this beautiful piece due to lack of maintenance. It was surprised me that he told me everything is FREE to me when I checked them out!!! I came out his gorgeous store with questions full of my brain....To be honest, I don't visit his store very often due to its distance. What is going on there? any secret promotion? store anniversary? first Chinese customer? or just because I know his friend? i have no clue....
OceanRevive Posted September 2, 2012 Author Posted September 2, 2012 yeah....free for all I wanted to "buy" from him today
CuttleFishandCoral Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 well...I guess Im heading to OIAB.
Garrett Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Now were all going to be disapointed when wr dont get hooked up hahaah
Toby Flenderson Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 That's really bizarre, he gave you the coral and fish for free? Were they perhaps being robbed and you were talking to the robber while coz was tied up behind the counter?
OceanRevive Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 I didn't buy that coral as it has a very rare color (light blue in red) and I don't have time to take care of the tank.
reefnjunkie Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Seems pretty obvious to me.....(whistle) When does a business just give things away(scratch)

PowderBlue Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Please tell me your going to qt the fish???
peligro Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Idk coz is pretty cool to me offered to hire me there, gives fish and coral to me free just about every time I go in. But I buy everything there. Did ya tell him that you came a long way to go there? Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
Gill Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 LOL, you sure would have regretted it had you decided not to "buy" it... That is awesome
CrazyInside Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Free stuff and he said you would find out in 24 hours. Store must be closing?
Gill Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 If the store was closing wouldn't he want the cash???
OceanRevive Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 I agree with Grill, he didn't sound giving me a goodbye gift.
kriz2fer Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 That would be sad. He had things going real good last year. I think he's a great guy and always feel Good after I left.
OceanRevive Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 I did not regret not "buying" that LPS. The fish and snails are free , i am not greedy:) It was my first time got gift from LFS. I will definitely visit Coz more to support him.
peligro Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 He's a pretty cool guy. He gets things for low prices like any other LFS, probably wanted a return customer. So make it good for the newbie. Great freebies Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
NoobtoSalt Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Something is up. Cos doesn't do something like that unless he gets something in return. That's just the way he is. I would be a little leery of this myself. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

madmike Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Ok before everyone goes crazy.... I told cos to hook Bo up with whatever he wanted and I would take care of him with corals in return. I didn't tell Bo I did this so it was quite a surprise to him lol. Cos is a great guy though as just a quick txt message and he was willing to hook my friend up! Sorry for starting the rumor mill about the store closing or cos going crazy (laugh)
