Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Now everyone here is a great deal for David Lims Discus. Now compare this to Amazon guy from a couple of days ago. Well done on presenting this to everyone Tim. I don't see where Tim is charging you any Import fees on his deal just the plane ride from his place to yours but we will have to ask Tim to be sure. Tim I may tag along on this deal I just need to move a few Discus and Angels around and open a tank. Need a few breeders for 2005

Wait a minute mr Discusgeo, guess your price can't beat that either if you need to go in on the deal here yourself ;D
I think you'll get a better deal dropping off another 2K yourself since you done it so many times ::)
Don't forget U.S.discus is a business and can purchase a much larger order than an average hobbyist so they can get a better price ..........duh Discusgeo
Thumbs up for Tim ;)

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
To all, Sorry to have caused a problem, I was aware that the timing conflicted with another seller and was going to postpone shipment, but couldnt. I am flattered that Phil and Mike are concerned enough about me to show they care ;D As to questions about the yellows, they are yellow not goldens. The pix on a question about the yellows are a golden. We will be placing our order within 10 days, so please be aware that because of shipping, fish and wildlife inspectors,etc we are on a limited schedule. We will require a deposit, refundable only if the fish come not as promised. Except for shipping to your location no other fees are involved. thanks, Tim with U. S. Discus

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi all, Walter, yes when they come in your ALWAYS welcome to come by. Kevin, I worry about you, as I said I cant take a pix of what I dont have. Suggest you go on davids site at www.fishiotribe.com.sg to look at pix. he has some on his site others he doesnt. Hes also much to busy to send pix out on the rest ( its hell being a winner at Aquarama). Thanks for the interest, Tim :D :D :D

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi Tim,for when should the discus be ready for shipping out to customers.If you can give an estimate week or date that would be great.

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Much depends upon david and how busy he is, but we are hoping to have them ready for you at the end of Feb. thanks, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi, Everyone. I talked to David last night and we will not add any more orders after this Wed, the 4th. Your order must be in to us by the 3rd with deposit. I think David is getting too many orders and is starting to raise his prices. Thanks to all for your comments and questions, hope we can do this again, Thanks, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi, All. Well, David is screaming at me because I keep calling him to add more fish. So as of this time and date we are booked. If you missed it we will try again later in the year around refund time ;D ;D ;D
Thanks, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
well cool that answers that question then jeff as to whether you would be doing this again sometime... for the foreigners among us (namely me) when is refund time??? i guess i better learn since Im moving to NY in 5 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo then i can restock with discus!!!!!

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
apologies tim i didnt mean to type Jeff...just posted on another thread and my mind is a sieve sorry bud: ;D

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi, Still a good question. A refund would happen if any of the reasons listed below were to take place.
1. Doas at airport, which would reduce numbers to everyone
2. David lim could not deliver at the prices promised
Thanks for bringing this up, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
A question for "NEXT" time Tim :) Is David's yellow crystal strain a pigeon blood strain/mix?
Thanks,
GARY
-
Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Gary, As you know almost ALL colors have some pig blood in them. David has stated to me that these are clean, except when stressed. Then they some black edging on the edge of fins. He does state that about 10% have may peppering in a spawn.
If however you want to know how they got to the yellow strain, I can find out for you. Thanks, Tim

Hi Heckelcracy,
I believe Tim was refering to possibly doing a group order again around income tax refund time, when those of us fortunate enough to receive income tax refunds start receiving our refund checks from Uncle George. This time could vary obviously depending on whether one filed their tax return early or waited until the April deadline.
Correct Tim?
-
Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Thats right. we have extended the deadline for placing a order by the next 5 days.because of people wanting to add more on. E-mail us at tthimios@aol.com. Thanks, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
I had some of those Yellow Crystals a while back really nice fish

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Hi, Everyone. It has come to my attention that some of the people that we had to refuse fish and even those that have ordered fish are overstepping it a bit much. I have had them state that David is farming out fish and they are not really his or are they ?, to writing him to ask for special favors by adding on even AFTER I have said we are full. Now, Im not sure how many times people must have been shafted by other breeders or gotten crappy fish, but heres MY business motto. I ONLY get GRade A fish.period. I ONLY buy from reputable breeders, No hormones, color feed is ok if I know in advance so I can let my customers know in advance and I promise I will try to get you fish that are as described. I would like to know the reasoning behind asking David to add more fish to MY order without me knowing, or to ask if he farms out fish. Its a insult to me and him. Paying for something does NOT give you the right to go over my head. If any of you are gun shy, then call me NOW for a refund. Life is too short for me to play games ( 2 heart attacks). I do what others only promise....I REALLY care about the fish and my customers. If this sort of thing continues, this WILL be my last add on order for simply. I can charge a hell of a lot more for these fish from David. Go to your local petshop and spend 80.00 for a brown discus. I was REALLY THINKING THAT I WAS DOING EVERYONE A FAVOR. If you have any other questions about my order call ME. If you want to know a specific question about a fish e-mail David and ask HIM if hes cheating you. I bet no-one will. Sorry, to get this way, but I pride my self on what I do, I feed my family this way, I love what I do, and I remember the MANY times I got shafted as a novice, I vowed if I got the chance I would make sure I would do better, Tim

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
As I and many many others here on Simply can attest to, Tim is a first class guy in all respects. It's sad when some try to take advantage of his desire to help others in this hobby get first class fish.
By the way Tim, if you go to our main LFS here in Charlotte, the browns are not 80 bucks, but 149.95, because they have red eyes I think!
-
Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Tim if I were you and you knew who was going behind your back and doing this I would just send them a refund and let them go to the pet store and get there own. If they ask why the refund tell them it was not appreciated in what they did and move on.
George

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
I second George's idea/recommendation. I would certainly hate to see a few individuals ruin it for the rest of us. ESPECIALLY if I might be one of the ones ordering on the next go around ;D

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Tim,
Screw them man.... BTW...Does this mean a few more Scarlets for me ;D ;D ;D
As usual, a few jackasses almost screw it up for the rest of us :o.
Seriuosly, everything ok with the order???

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Tim, We placed a phone order with you recently, This being our first discus order with you. I was impressed with your candor, and honesty. Your assurance that you would only ship quality discus, or refund the deposit.
We are new to Simply Discus and appreciate dealing with members like you - :)
Thank you for the great offer!
It's Members like you that make Simply Discus a place to enjoy! :)
Jim & Jeanne

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Tim:
I think that you were being too nice, by extending your order deadline, and letting people add on, etc. Next time, have a deadline, and keep to it.
If anyone went directly to David, behind your back, and stirred up trouble, I agree with George, refund their deposit and tell them sayonara. This is YOUR order with David, and all of us buying from you are YOUR customers. If anyone wants special favors from David, they should order DIRECTLY from him or fly to Singapore and personally select their own fish!
I'm sure that you were upset and angered by the actions of a few overzealous individuals, but the rest of us stand by you. We look forward to seeing some grade A fish from you!

Re:DAVID LIM DISCUS FROM U. S. DISCUS
Cough I dont post much but i read alot. I have been to Tim's setup a couple of times, and unlike alot of other people who import and sell discus (even some on here) i have seen the care he takes in seperating all his tanks and manualy doin water changes (not a central system) seen how he bags and ships with quality. I have seen him refuse to sell a fish with the statement "well she is eating but she just isnt swimming right". Now are all the perfect circles and will all place 1st place a t a show, no of course not but they arent $500 a piece either, but they all have good shape and good genes and are all very healthy. He is one of the few people that i would walk into there hatchery and give him a couple hundred bucks and a cooler and say i am waiting in the car. In this business all you have is your reputation. And i have NEVER seen Tim do anything that would remotly call into question his reputation. keep up the good work tim.
