umm... where did it move to? I clicked the link of it thinking it would take me to the moved post (or at least tell me what section it was moved to) but I can't find it anywhere. :blink:
 
While I didn't move it, I have a pretty good idea of what happened. It got moved to Buy, Sell, & Swap, as it obviously is a fish sales topic. If you read the rules pinned in Buy, Sell, & Swap, it states that it is for the sale of surplus fish & equipment. Getting in a shipment of fish for resale is obviously not surplus, and was complained about, so the topic got pulled.
 
that isn't very nice :crazy:


It has nothing to do with nice or not, it has to do with the rules. Anyone can get a shipment of fish in, and mark them up for resale. That makes it a commercial venture, not a hobbyist selling off excess stock. That rule was put in place to prevent this forum from becoming aquabid, e-bay, or something similar.

The same applies to someone breeding with the intentions of ongoing sales. I do that, and you never see me selling fish here. Right now I'm looking at a styro with 40 fish I just bagged for an auction. This is a small sale, I have a 3 hour drive ahead of me going to the next state over with 6 other breeders. I have a guy coming over next week for 50 fish, and a lfs looking for 25. It is continuing sales, and you will never see me selling fish I breed for sale on this forum. That is the rule, I have to abide by it, just like any other member.
