did I miss something?

I haven't bought any new corals for my tank since I moved here from Toledo 6 months ago. Today I was checking out an online vendor I used to check out and he's suddenly selling amazing red and orange ricordea yuma for $30.... last I saw these guys were going for over $100... did I miss something and suddenly the price on these has dropped? I am considering buying up all the guy has...anyone interested fantastic yuma deals, I may be able to have them shipped here if I make an order.

"Flavor of the Month/Year"

Happens all the time in this hobby. Some year "X" coral or something is so popular the prices go sky-high....then after time passes something else replaces it and the price drops. Up and down, year after year, it's a continual cycle. Sad really, but that's supply and demand for you.

That's why any time I see something I really want I give it a few months to a year before actually buying it....to see what the price will do. Usually I come out ahead and get it cheaper than what some folks were paying for them.
