what would you do?

If you order fish from a reliable vendor, the shipping process can be simple and easy. Many fish that are not readily available in your area can be found quite easily through vendors. I know you may be skeptical about shipping but you can really limit your access to stock by not ordering online on occasion.

^ I agree because shipping is always a hassle when purchasing a fish, not to mention the shipping charges and the fact that it could possibly die in transit.

Where at exactly do you live?

I live in Sonoma County, CA. Their isn't much of a market for more rare fish, even the LFS's here really only carry your average fish with a few exceptions. Oh and Saltwater is really popular here IMO, so alot of LFS's have a large part dedictated to salt water.

Right I'm almost to the point of just buying one online, but I'd wanna buy more than 1 fish to make the shipping cost seem more reasonable. So it won't be that I'm paying like 60 bucks for just a Red Severum.

I agree. Buying multiple fish will justify shipping. You could also do a group buy with some friends. That would spread the shipping costs between several people.
