A little Integrity

[firewindnrain]

I'm posting this because I want off this forum anyways.  When someone tells you that you are indeed interested in buying, and makes motions for arrangements to meet...don't sell the stuff from under their feet.  Not everyone can sit on their lazy butts in front of a computer all day...some have to work and may not get your message right away. 
Also, if what you're really about is screwing someone out of a deal...don't be a store.  As with my first and last experience on this forum, I will never make purchases from the Box cuz they're the ones that took what I was promised.  See...you only hurt yourself.
To the owner of this forum, I apologize.  I don't take getting screwed very well and it seems to be quite the norm in this hobby.  Don't bother replying, I won't be back...just remove my account and have a good day.

Im going to admit, Ive been following pretty much all the posts on this forum. The box of water kind of turned me off with what happened there. Im kind of on the fence if I would like to deal with them anymore as well. Not only because of what happened with the live rock. I have also sent them pm's and emails...none of which have been answered about their "huge coral shipment"

Personally I wouldnt blame pulpfiction. If it happened to me, sure I may be upset, but no need to end your membership to this site.

sorry gotta add to my last post. Honestly imo The box of water, if they want to save some face here, should maybe hook firewindnrain up.

we all know what your doing with the rock..

 

[The Box of Water]

Hi To all,

First off I would like to apologize to firewindnrain about this entire situation. I was not aware of your interest in the rock until now. Were were in contact with pulpfiction1 many days ago about the rock, but were unable to go pick it up at that time do to time constraints.

Secondly I would like to make it known that the rock that we are purchasing from pulpfiction1 is NOT going to be made for sale to our customers for a number of reasons;

1.  The Rock is being purchased for use in the sumps of our fish systems- we are currently upgrading ALL of the systems in the store - Fish & coral, to serve our customers better. We are needing upwards of 800lbs of rock in each of our systems (we have 4 systems)

2.  We would never sell USED rock to our customers, as we would be unable to assure our customers that the rock is truly pest, phosphate, copper, medication etc. free. We would never put the success of our customers at risk.


I would also like to apologize to everyone who has emailed the store requesting information over the last few days. Unknowingly our outgoing email server was down, as we WERE responding to all of your emails, but as I have been just made aware, nobody has been receiving them.

I will work as quickly as I can to respond to everyone tomorrow. morning...well i guess today (Saturday).

I Would Like to apologize again to everyone who has be inconvenienced by this whole situation.

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to contact me at the store;

firewindnrain's profile has been deleted from the forum as requested.

I'm not exactly sure what firewindnrain's intentions were by publicly posting his frustration, but I do not agree with his decision to do so.
