Do I continue to plug ARC in my new store when my old one is bashed so badly here? Why should I do that? Just asking.

Fish replacement events have often been one of the most contentious situations I've had to deal with even as an associate (the manager on duty has to make the last call). When cash is involved and tempers flare it can go badly and that is unfortunate. At The Fish Store and More for the past 3 years now my colleague Reggie has demonstrated a very fair response to a situation like hers. We would offer the customer a 50% off deal on another specimen. That shares the burden between customer and store since it is unclear who's really to blame?? No one is to blame. A living creature was highly stressed out. We all contributed to bringing these creatures around the world away from their natural habitat and if it died we can both share the burden for what we did to it.

People that shout about prices need to learn the difference between value and price. Value is everything that is backed by the price; employee knowledge, return policy, conveinence, etc.. Price is that number on the tag. In many cases the Maxijet 1200 for $39.99 has more value than the one for $14.99.

All I was trying to do was figure out why Bobby at CBA was upset with the fact that we buy online from out of state business. I simply told him what I thought. And tried to offer suggestions to help the problem. And he accused me of "killing LFS's" just because im a smart consumer. I didnt appreciate it one bit. Then a member trys to justify the high prices of LFS's by telling us to look at power and water bills when the "etailers" have the same problem. I throw a little, lol, joke at him and he also jumped my S***. Whats wrong here? It seems like in every other thread there is a few people going at it about something as stupid as opinions. I think Im just going to bow out of the Atlanta Reef Club. Thank you all for the help over the last year well it would have been a year tomorrow lol. Happy reefing:up:

And, remember the powerbuy CBA had a while back on clams? I dare you to find a better price online anywhere.
Service from LFS is invaluable
That really wasnt a pleasant situation and lack of care. People sat in the dark as all the clams died. I am not putting blame on CBA for the clams but I dont remember them stepping up and even taking any partial blame or making any statements about it....please correct me if im wrong.chicagoman_35;84977 wrote:
