I don't know about last summer. My orders were Nov & Dec. I ordered the first of August and waited 3 months to get them. She would have refunded my money, but I didn't want her to. It was a chance to go outside the time frame of a refund through PayPal, but I REALLY wanted the crabs. It all worked out. Waiting was tough (I was worse than the kids :)), but worth it in the end.

Sach, everyone got their orders or got refunded. No one got scammed. Everyone received what they ordered although some people had to wait 4 months for the crabs.


And I've deleted my other posts. I'm being a crabby little whatsit tonight. Just ignore what I've said.

You're not crabby! At least in a bad way.

When I was informed that the blues I ordered were not coming in, I was given the option of refund or substitute. She also promised my next order at half off if I chose the substitution. I took her up on the offer. It was very disappointing waiting as long as I did for information regarding the order, but I can't blast her for not keeping her word on the subs and discounts. This is old news though. Like I said before, we'll see what happens with the new order!

So far she has been good to me and with what happened with half my crabs she will replace them, the others are doing pretty good, did not lose them all like some people were telling me when I first got them which is a plus, the mite treatment was a pain in the arse but at least it worked. I'll do this once more to get blues (which I hope will happen) I paid through my bank and paid through paypal last year and never had to "re order" like others are saying. I don't mind waiting this time now that I have an idea of how long it can take. Just remember when you order crabs online there are risks, and you must have patience! I've been searching for blues since I started crabbing so this is good news to hear. I don't have room for the other species, not really interested in them since I already own 6 species already. It will be nice to have another straw and indo for the lone one's :D After this I'm done, I'll continue rescue and adopting crabs in need.

Any good discounts or coupons. And also, the 6 pack of blues has been bumped up, I guess she figured it out.

Hey, guys!
We got a little off topic on a DIY thread regarding reviews of LHC when we started debating the care of exotics, especially Aussies. I moved the last part of the thread to a new thread in Crabitat conditions.

viewtopic.php?f=26&t=98332
Please feel free to carry on the conversation, but let's keep this very busy thread on subject. Thanks so much! :)

I'm sorry if this gets off topic but I'm just curios of if these are real cavipes they're selling, I've seen lots of exporter adds for them, but I thought they'd just be violas. Is anyone sure they're real cavipes?

I'll be curious to see myself. :) I hope she adds a photo when she gets them in, and people post photos if they're brave enough to order them without really knowing.
