There were a few expensive vendors but they are always expensive I'm sure even in their stores. The naming of the corals was pretty funny. You'd walk up and someone would ask "hey is that a vivid rainbow?" The vendor would laugh and say " no man, that's an auntie m's wowzers peach cobbler, $50 a polyp" hmm ok. You want to go there knowing what you want and have researched prices. Just like you don't go to the grocery store hungry, then you buy everything lol. One couple had driven down from Georgia, now THEY were probavly getting ripped.
