oh god you gotta be kidging me

If she simply replies with the truth and gets them in contact with the seller, all will be okay. It's a word mix up.

Becca,

Why are you buying Communist fish? Aren't American fish good enough? Buy American!

We'd come visit you on weekends, but I don't think they'll let us go to Gitmo.

PayPal swears they can't get it done any faster than 24-72 hours. I called and they say they will try to escalate it so it gets done in 24 hours. Apparently any time the word "Cuban" gets used in a note, they put it through a full government investigation or something.

So, never, ever, ever use the word cuban when using paypal, ever.

Seriously... this would only happen to me.

 

[jonclark96]

Wow. What a headache.

From now on, they are only tetracanthus, never Cuban cichlids!

Does not sound like a laughing matter, but seriously I want to laugh. These fish must be in the hobby all over the world.

I'm laughing now, that I'm sure "the man" isn't going to come lock me up, but the moment I first read the email from PayPal was a bit dreadful.

 

[Phelansfish]

hey becca, go ahead and order the other peoples fish, just not mine. if and when the money goes through just refund me. i dont want other people to not recieve their fish because of me.

I'm sure our site is now flagged, we're under NSA surveillance.

Sam - contact Josh Wiegert (JLW), he may be able to get fish for you and has a longer time for the needed payment.

Big brother really is always watching.

P Phelansfish - I think Joshua Wiegert's are actually CHEAPER if you read his whole preorder list ;-) ;-)

Good thing you weren't ordering these cichlids:

Probably would have had a SWAT team at your house.

I would've wound up deported.

WetSpot is starting to go through and check stock against the list. They'll get back to me tonight with any issues they've had putting the order together. Once that's sorted through, I'll send payment tomorrow, at about this time. With any luck P Phelansfish , your payment will have processed by then.

This thread is popcorn worthy. I'd like to thank everyone who made it happen.

 

[JLW]

I once had an entire shipment of fishes destroyed at import. I was seriously pissed. Like apoplectic. And if you've ever seen me seriously pissed off, y'know what that's like.

One of the boxes contained L235 plecos.

L235 has the unfortunate name of Pseudolithoxus... anthrax.

Whomever named these things. . . . You are STILL on my list.
