    Re: Qutting Hobby

    I decided to splite them apart. Here is the pricing for group as well as individual. Ofcuz, always welcome for $2500 for my whole stock. If u buy more than one discus, i will give 10 dollar discount for every other discus that u buy. If u buy more than one group, i will give additional 10 dollar off on next group as well. The reason i prefer selling as a group is people try to pick the best one out of the group and its not really fair for everyone but if u are willing to pay for it, its all urs. You don't have to buy to pm me or come by my place ;P. So, please do not hesitate to come by!

    Group price...
    4 x While butterfly 5”+ = 360
    2 x Wild Discus 5.5”+ =260
    1x Penang Eruption 6”+ = 150
    1x Red Cover 4.5”+ = 50
    1x Wild Discus 4”+ = 70
    4x Red Fire 3.5” – 4” = 260
    5x Red White 3.5”+ = 250
    7x Altum Flora 4”+ = 490
    3x Blue Platinum 3.5” + = 195
    1x Colbat 4.5”+ = 80
    1x Albino Cobat 5.5”+ = 150
    3x Albino Platinum 3.5”+ = 330
    1x Albino Platinum 2.5”+ = 100
    6x Albino Pearl Diamond 4" + = 540

    Individual

    White Butterfly 5" + = 110
    Wild Discus 5.5"+ = 150
    Penang Eruption 6"+ = 150
    Red Cover 4.5"+ = 50
    Wild Discus 4"+ = 70
    Red Fire 3.5 - 4" + = 80
    Red White 3.5"+ = 60
    Altum Flora4"+ = 75
    Blue Platinum 3.5"+ = 65
    Colbat 4.5"+ = 80
    Albino Cobat 5.5"+ = 180
    Albino White Butterfly 3.5"+ = 138
    Albino Blue Diamond 2.5"+ = 100

      Re: Qutting Hobby

      Gabloo I truly truly mean no disrespect and am not trying to be rude at all my friend but your prices are very top dollar. I won't list specific examples but I would recommend looking at sponsor sites and checking current values on a lot of those fish. They look healthy and whatnot but there are some common strain discus in there that can actually be bought cheaper direct even with shipping. All i'm saying is if you want to unload them instead of sit on them you may need to reevaluate pricing. There are a lot of people here that will pick up fish quick, and don't low ball yourself by any means but you may consider looking around I guess is all i'm saying. Best of luck man.

        + 1 Agree, you need to reevaluate your pricing because they are little bit higher. if you want them to sell quickly. I have a nice Penang eruption and I'm selling it for a more than 5 months for $130 but up until now still no taker.

          Re: Qutting Hobby

          Gabloo, no disrespect my friend. You are asking for more than the retail price. As Drew said check some SD sponsors prices for July/August shipments and you will see what I mean. Most of the people on SD are quite savvy so you might not get much luck with those prices. The basic rule of thumb is when you sell private you have to offer a good price compared to retail prices, because you have to factor in the risk (fear of unknown) that the buyer is taking to buy from you.

          Good Luck!

            Re: Qutting Hobby

            Your red cover is about right though lol. 50 bucks is a good deal if he looks good, the rest are not all. I wouldn't buy a basic Altum flora from a direct importer for 75 bucks, its like a turq, one of your most common lowest value fish.

              I concur, I would lower everything by at least 20%, but good luck with that.

                Re: Qutting Hobby

                Thanks for great advice guys! I havn't really check the pricing of these guy lately so i really sure how much it worth. The reason i priced these guy this much is that the size that i wrote on the post is actually smaller than what they really are. Well that is my lost. Taking everyone advice lowering group price by 20%, individual price will be remain the same because i don't ppl to pick fish pieces by pieces. Send me pm guys! My lost is ur gain!

                or take all of them 2300 (lowered 200).

                        I'm just going to ignore that to say, that looks great Gabloo, I see what you meant now, i'm sure you'll get rid of these guys in no time! Every one of these threads has commentary, he didn't take it the wrong way so hopefully all this helped him get rid of some fish! Good luck Gabloo!
