You can buy that kind of quality all day long here in the Philippines for $50-$100 U.S., sometimes even less $!

that's what I am saying.. I have never been to the Philippines but I know the going rate for a fish like that online and there a lot of sellers who could be selling that same fish for $100 and still be make money off of you. Shop around!

You buy the fish from online and shipping the fish is going to cost around the same price.
It's ok if someone is going to make money when they sale the fish, part of the game.

Saw it in person and talked him down to $260. Know he making money off of me but I like the FH. Gave him deposit already and going to pick him up this Sunday.

dont buy it! price too high! i honestly wouldnt go for it myself! its nice yes! but overpriced! you can do better for 300 bucks! I would honestly pay 150 for that fish! that is not a 300 dollar fish! GL I hope you make the right decision

You could:
A - Get yourself a nice fish
B - Let this lame talk you out of it

Your choice.

Jeez man.... People have different views about everything. No need to flame.

nice! You won't be disappointed the fish is worth the money and would be costing you about the same if you had to pay for shipping. I personally would rather buy locally than have something shipped so I know what I am getting and I can see if it's healthy and whatnot. I usually just don't have the option so I get stuck paying for shipping. Anyways, good luck raising him he is sweet!

No forget it. Get some nice REAL fish and not hybrids.

Whos the one flaming here? Stay out of the hybrid forum if you don't like them.

Very nice flowerhorn with loads of potential but for $300 you could do better. If you could jew him down to $200 for that fish then I'd do that. In the Bay are there are a lot of quality flowerhorns to chose from. Check out the members market place on www.flowerhorncraze.com

Maybe you could find better terminology then "jew" him down???

maybe next time. Urban Dictionary says

Jew him down: The act of a buyer negotiating a lower price for goods or services from a seller.

example: The car dealer wanted me to pay sticker price for my new car, but I successfully Jewed him down to a lower price.
