If I go into a local reef store and buy.......Ummmmm lets just say 5 boxes of coral colonies, for a wholesale price......Then post them here for sale,weekly.Would that make me a Commerical seller worthery of being ousted from RC ? Just an off the wall question.
 
That would make you a commercial seller worthy of having the sales post removed and a warning to cease selling given. As for being ousted from RC, that depends entirely on how you handle the warning. Politely accept it and cease any and all selling activity and there is no problem. Ignore it and keep selling and then we have problems ;)
 
yupyup,

A number of different factor's get looked at, including sales volume. Our sales forums are meant for folks that occasionally need to thin out a tank or sell off used equipment. However, delibertly fragging for sales, buying old systems and parting them out are some of the things that will get flagged as commercial.
 
Thank you,billsreef, for an informative answer.This is not at all pointed at you,or ment to be disrespectful to RC in any way.I love RC and I do not like to see the rules get trampled.That was the reasion for my question.

See Him scramble,See Him run.
Your a Hypocrit,and thats no pun.
"The colors made me do it."
No,I think the money.
Your a plain Hypocrit.
And that $%@# is funny.
 
Glad to be of service :D

However, lets to try to keep comments that could become inflamatory out ;)
 
Let's see if I can get another thread closed.

Well said. Point taken.

Who amongst us does not like to get cheap frags? We are all hobbyists. If a guy chooses to frag and sell his stuff it's nobodys business why he does it. Usually it's good for us buyers. Buy it or don't.

The moderators have a tough job to do and I hate to see them having to stop anyone from selling frags here, because it's so hard to draw a line, who's gone too far and who hasn't. For it not to seem arbitrary, they would almost have to stop it all together.

I know what your saying, some people have made a big deal about the selling of frags and I'm not sure why. You've made a good point and hopefully they can see it behooves, I don't get to use that word enough, him and the rest of us, not to call the kettle black. Otherwise they may just say, NO Selling of Frags, period. Fair is fair. We all, including the pot, should be able to sell to each other. I, for one, like the opportunity to buy frags at a reasonable price.

Now, I think as a gesture of good will, everyone should toss a frag in a kind of grab bag, you too frag king, and then I will distribute them to deserving tanks........starting with my own.

No.....really.....I'll be fair.
 
Some good points. Even though I'm not positive who the kettle is and who the pot is. Anyways, everything should be fair. However, hypocrisy prevailed causing the inevitable... the king has left the building.

How will the grab bag work? I'll throw 1 in for a good cause. Anybody else? Also, kudos on "behooves".
