How do you join in on the sale?
They will post pictures of the coral with a link to website in this thread. If you want it, you need to checkout as fast as you can. Adding to your cart does not secure the coral for you, you must complete the checkout.
Make sure you have an account on calikids website and your payment info is saved or auto filled by your browser, if you try and type everything in each time you will not stand a chance on getting most of things you want.
Best chance of buying: CONSTANTLY refreshing of this sale thread so you see the newest post of the corals for sale is your best bet. The $5-20 corals are normally sold with milliseconds. I like live sales and have a good sense of timing and my checkout process is near automatic, yet I may get a $5 once every 5-6 sales. 1gig and 5G internet users normally have a little bit of an advantage. The first few live sales can be rough until you get the hang of it. It’s not the buying method for everyone....but some love it.
Many of the items that go unsold are still on the site for available for purchase. Some wait til the end of the sale to post all the unsold items to their site. From what I remember CK usually post to the thread and they are available on the site anytime after that post until sold.
You’ll only pay shipping once, for each additional order make sure that the shipping option is “add to order”, “prepaid shipping”, or similar. If you accidentally pay for shipping twice; don’t worry, they will be happy to straighten it out, however it may be after the sale or the next day.
100s of corals for sale and 100s of people generally trying to buy at the same time make for a somewhat chaotic scenario.

Best of luck

Not too be rude, but some questions that are asked in every live sale are unnecessary.
- Will shipping be refunded if I don’t get anything
- Can I combine multiple orders
It’s borderline illegal for the answer to be no, cmon. Use common sense

Hey Medici, this is a bit rash imo. Who is to blame here? The person who has never done a live sale before, or the vendor for not clarifying this? If these questions appear in every live sale, then why hasn't the vendor caught on and made this statement clear? It's a lose-lose, and the only way to help is to acknowledge and inform from my perspective.
