Anybody up for a hermit/snail groupbuy?

I'm needing another batch of hermits and snails, wondering if you guys wanted to go in on a big order again?

i remember last time i paid 26 bucks and got 50 hermits and 50 snails.
 
at reeftopia, 100 small blue legs are 35 bucks, and 100 turbo's are 45. any orders over 120 gets free shipping :)

anybody have a better place to get them?
 
I'd LIKE to support "the local guy" also... but can Matt get us a deal as good as reeftopia? No sarcasm meant here at all - IF he can get us a comparable deal, I'd gladly buy an upgrade to my cleanup crew at FA&E - but I'd be foolish spend more money for normal LFS prices when I can get snails and hermits for $.45 each. I've got a kid to feed, y'know! :bum:
Yes, I know - I AM A CHEAP SOB!
 
:werd: i'd also prefer to support matt over any other place, but i'm planning on buying 50+ of each hermits and snails.
 
Steve - check out the section "LOT PRICES" even cheaper! :bum:
300 small blue legs = $75
there are other snail options as well
 
also, if we order more than 200 bucks worth of stuff, its an extra 10% off...

so now what i need to know is how many people are in on this, and how many of what everyone wants!

I'll start the list:

Shaar - 50 hermits, 50 snails
SoupySteve - ?
Tbrill - ?
Deadeye - ?
Muleball39 - ?
DeLong20 - ?
Joelk835 - ?

need to know this so i know how much we need to order. if we go over 200, we'll automatically knock off another 20 bucks. i assume we'll probably break that if we get another person or 2 in on this. :) Let me know!
 
I'd probably only want 20 blue hermits and 10 snails, all I got is the cube for now, and I think with the e-mail fewell sent out I can get the hermits and snails locally for like 25 bucks. IF the 75 was ready I'd want 100 of each, but maybe next time, cause I still need live rock. Don't forget some of the stuff will probably be DOA too, so how do you work that out? Say you order 300 blue legs and you got people who want 300 total but some are dead.

Thanks, but for now I think I will buy local, I'll check back when the 75 is ready to see if you guys are interested again later.

When we did the group order last time, I didn't have any issue with DOA livestock. I think the one PLUS to buying locally would be the SIZE of the critters. When we did the group buy last time, the hermits WERE TINY - Matt says the ones he can get are decent sized.
Mark me down for 100 hermits and 50 snails.
