Goni is still gradually opening up since I moved it out of the intense light. Maybe in a week or so it’ll be fully open and start coloring back up to purple.

Looks pretty good. Seems much happier than the first pic you showed.

this seems strange to me, the business should be set up such that it is very difficult to lose money. If too many GC are being used, give away less GC. If the coral is too cheap, increase the price of the coral. If he's losing money on shipping, don't offer free shipping.

As customers, we don't have visibility into the actual costs associated with the business. All we see are products we can buy and terms/rules for when we engage. If that's not sustainable, then it makes sense for there to be a change.

this goes back to the generosity discussion. $1/$5/$6 corals isn't a matter of him being generous, it's business. This is his business and he needs it to be sustainable and we want to support him in doing so.
... are you actually blaming Shane?

Like, seriously... it really sounds like you're blaming someone who has been fair and generous for the actions of people who would take advantage of him.

That's messed up, not gonna lie.

We are setup very well to be profitable and very rarlt loose money and adapt as we go when somebody checked out 7 6ers and only gets 1 1er and pairs it with 1 coral and gets free shipping we lose money. This actually never happened to us in the 2 Years we did business so to prevent this in the future we will have stronger rules to prevent this is all. Like I said no worries at all becouse technically everybody played by the rules :) we learn as we go and this surley won't happen again

$75 or $100 of real money spent for 1/5s. I like the idea of the sixes being paired with $25. Being paired with $50 would be better. The people who spend more should be rewarded more. At $50 avg...Even if you spent $200 that would still open up 4 $6 dollar corals....easy peasy.

That......or Shane has a VIP room of 1/5s and every 100 bucks (or whatever number), they get a trip in
