Reservation Policy - Reservations for corals will be made by the folllowing
method; 1st available reservation after First Edition will goto reservation
list, 2nd available reservation will goto a current Road Trip List for that
month and will be made available to that location. The following available dates
will alternate in the same fashion. All reservation dates are only approximate
harvesting and shipping dates. For example, if a reef aquarist makes a reservation
for October 2007 and another reservation for December 2007, we can still ship
both together to save the reef aquarists shipping costs. Some reservations may
be shipped ahead of other reservations. This is only done to ship multiple reservations
by reef aquarists together whenever possible. We will try to only ship multiple
reservations together in the same shipment to the same reef aqaurist if the
aquarist reservations dates are no more then 5 months apart. Occasionally we
get reservation cancellations. On the reservation schedule cancellations are
handled many different ways. If the coral is producing fragments at rates that
keep up with the schedule and the reservation date is in the future, it will
be marked available. If the coral is producing fragments at rates that keep
up with the schedule and the reservation date is within a few months of current,
it will offerred to a private cancellation email list. If the coral is producing
fragments at rates that keep up with the schedule and the reservation date is
in the past, the reservation and fragment will be sold to the reef company Tropical
Reef Oasis. They will auction the reservation and fragment on Ebay. If the
coral is not producing fragments at rates that keep up with the schedule and
the reservation is within a few months of the current date, the reservation
for that month will be cancelled and will not be available to reef aquarists.
If the coral is not producing fragments at rates that keep up with the schedule
and the reservation is more then a few months in the future, the reservation
for that month will be made available to reef aquarists. We will assume that
the growth rate will eventually increase. Please note - we cannot automatically
move everyones reservation ahead one month just because someone ahead cancelled
their reservation. This is because some reef aquarist may not want their reservation
moved ahead. Notifying each aquarists when a reservation is cancelled is too
time consuming. So if you already have a reservation for a coral and you see
that an earlier reservation has become available, please send us email asking
to be moved ahead to that reservation. If you are looking for a new reservation
and you happen to see an early one become available, consider yourself lucky.
When a reservation is made it is made for the month reserved and does not guarantee
any specific shipping order. Also, The Coral Oasis reserves the right to cancell
any and all reservations due to the loss of a parent colony or colonies or due
to the inability to contact the aquarist who has the reservation. Full refunds
will be given for any cancellation that was paid for before reciept of the reservation
or any deposits that were made.
