Yes youre right, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to use their best judgement when buying anything from anyone. I dont ask for any papers to prove anything. I like to build personal relationships with people that i buy from so i can judge myself as whether i can trust their word or not. Lets not single out one vendor here!! These questions can be asked of all vendors or wholesalers. Nobody is perfect but sometimes business is business and i have seen some cutthroating over the years from business men.
From my business expiriences with Dan were positive. Ive talked with Gage and Ira as well and my expiriences were the same. Ive never talked to Rapps before, only exchange emails. As for the rest of the vendors i havent had the pleasure. Im not interested in trying to dispute their credibility, especially without proof!! I give everyone the benifit of a doubt untill they prove otherwise. It would be a very sad day if someone was able to prove that any of these vendors are lying about their stock just to make money!! It would be nice to know if certain fish were farmed from wild stock or recently collected. This way if i was buying a known farmed fish, i would be able to consider the possiblity of all the outcomes.
