2littlerevheads Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 how does aquabid work? do we have to chat to someone about the importing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Its a nasty drug Jennie. You will get hooked very quickly. Lol. Give Jarrod a call, he knows all about it. Just remember that it's a gamble, anything can happen before you get your fish, chew his tail, change pattern (marble) ect. Lots of possibilities. I prefer to tell someone what I am after and organise it that way. It's not much cheaper either once you pay import costs. Myself, I buy fish I can see in person. JMO.

Neffy Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Yes you must talk to jodi and organise importing with her first, before buying from aquabid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 For shipment to Australia, "For AUSTRALIAN purchasers - Bidders MUST contact the transhipper someone by email -someone@gmail.com BEFORE BIDDING. ...If you fail to do so your fish WILL NOT be accepted for import." I really haven't had any problems using AB. There was the one time a HM I bought bit his tail off, but the breeder threw in a free pair as compensation. I was more than happy (the free fish were better quality) When you email/phone/visit someone, ask for a list of breeders she has dealt with and recommends. I am happy to add to that list with the breeders I know and have dealt with. Keep in mind once you pay for the fish and pay someone for quarantine, price isn't that much cheaper than buying from Fishchicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Nut Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I just imported three females from AB and they are due to be shipped to me on Monday. It was a really easy process, and this was my first time using Paypal and AB. I simply contacted someone, got sent a Terms of Conditions document, and then bid on my fish. The TOC outlined step-by-step what I had to do, and then I simply emailed the seller and let him/her know what I wanted done. My three females got exported out and arrived on the 14th and were released from quarantine on Wednesday afternoon. I then paid someone the quarantine and shipping charges, and she has kindly held them for me as I didn't want them sent out on a Thursday. Hopefully when they get here, they haven't marbled out too drastically as they were in Thailand for a couple of weeks after payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
