UPSCALES Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) Store owners watch out for this guy and his girlfriend. He will bring a drink cup from Subway filled with saltwater into your store and steal corals. He got a $295 gold torch from me last week, won’t happen again! You are on blast dude! Enjoy!!!

CuttleFishandCoral Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I recognize him. It’s on. I think he always does coming in with a cup. My manager said he’s helped him a bunch of times. Thanks for looking out! What a total pos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UPSCALES Posted May 6, 2022 Author Share Posted May 6, 2022 As store owners we need to look out for each other, corals are so crazy expensive now, loosing a $300 coral is not fun, we try hard to put out quality coral and fish for all you reefers, we try to keep our prices fair, I just gave zero respect for a thief.

I’m sure he is, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone identifies him publicly. if you know who this is a PM would be a wiser approach. that and if someone shows up to your house with a subway cup to check out your corals, don’t let them in 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocboat Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I'm really sorry that happened to you. I don't think I've ever seen him before but I'll be sure to keep an eye open from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash21 Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Nothing wrong with calling him out…I’m sure no one wants the guy at there house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefrun Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I think if we can get a name he should be reported to the police… I doubt this was a one time thing 😡 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the store owners know this guys name and say “Hi XXXX”. Nothing wrong with that. Thieves live in the shadows. They won’t stay in your store if you provide that fantastic level of personalized customer service. Almost nothing as satisfying as watching the color from their faces drain as you greet them by name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuncrestReef Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Shops should implement a new store policy: If you enter with a cup, you must take a big drink from that cup upon entry. Otherwise, get the f*ck out of the store. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowderBlue Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 100 percent if someone knows him he should be outed. If he steals from a store he will steal from you. What a dirt bag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danlu_gt Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 That rare gold torch is retail for $1000+, right? Or whatever amount before police will do something. Or maybe that's just in CA and WA?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
