    so we made a trip to iowa city today to go to a couple fish stores, came across this guy on craigslist that was selling some corals. We called him and asked if it was alright if we stopped by to check out what he has, he said yes and asked what time we would be there, we said somewhere around 1:30 but we had a bunch of other places we were checking out first. 1:30 Rolls around and we decided to stop in at a guys house in North LIberty this D** bag starting txtin my gfs phone saying how rude we were for not showing up at 1:30 Like we said we would, she appologized and said we would head that way after we got done in North liberty that pissed him off even more he went on this HOUR long txtn spree talking **** saying how we are soo disrespectfull and how we dont deserve to breath the same air as him. After talking to a few ppl that we ran into we mentionioned sumthing about this f*** face and they named him right off saying how bi-polar he was and how he would go on hour long sprees if you dont make him happy and how he loved to take ppl to court etc etc.. Well after so long of putting up with this guys crap he started saying we should stop by his house so he can show us what he really thought about us. That pissed me off so i called this guy up and freaked out on him, If i was ever informed that he loved to take ppl to court i woulda went straight over to this guys house and knocked his teeth out for talking crap for over 2 hours for no reason at all. Come to find out he was a member of this site and that he actully got kicked off and banned from here.
       Anyways if someone ever runs into this guy and he does the samething to you. knock his a** out and bring him to Des Moines so i can Finish my beef with him, Somewhere away from his home and phones so he doesnt go crying to the cops like a little girl he sounded like.   Grrr.. Sorry i just had to vent haha Anyone else ran into any problems like this from a guy in Cedar Rapids?

    I read the title of the post and already knew who you were talking about. Sad thing is that I never met or dealt with the guy outside of reading his posts on here about a year ago.

    "Anyways if someone ever runs into this guy and he does the samething to you. knock his a** out and bring him to Des Moines so i can Finish my beef with him, Somewhere away from his home and phones so he doesnt go crying to the cops like a little girl he sounded like.

    Hey CORI's that sucks you had a problem with this guy. I think everyone has had some type of run in with him at one time or another. Anyway you two were one of the best people Ive ever sold corals to so it goes to show that he has no respect for anyone or doesn't give anyone a chance to explain themselves before grilling them. It sucks that you ran into him but now you'll know who to avoid when it comes to this hobby. Theres a lot of good people out there but theres also a lot of bad people you run into.

    You can report harassment to the police and there is no court or anything involved. They will go to his door and have a nice talk with him.

    Well Clark is a special one. A couple of my regulars switched and started calling him Clark Griswald from National Ampoons. He hates the name so feel free to use it. I think everyone has issues with him including one of his best friends. I know my life got easier when I banned him from the store.

    haha wow this guy is crazy, he really likes to make a good word for his name doesnt he LOL Hey trevor, you are correct its just a shame theres people like that all over this world they always think it should be their way or the highway and most of them usually get the **** kicked out of them and its probably the best thing for them. Im a newby in all this so im not going to go around pissing people off because i know i will have a bunch of questions along the way and i want to have somewhere to go that someone can answer them but if i go being a douche bag like him there no way in hell id ever get help from anyone. a couple things that he said that made me laugh he said "everone on this girs web site is a bunch of wanna bs that think they know it all but they really dont and that he knows everything their is to know about "reefing" he has people from all around that come to just him for corals because he has the best of the best LOL" then he tried to say hes glad we didnt come buy any of his stuff because we probably have no money so that means my tank is **** and he doesnt want his "top of the line corals" going to a crappy set up.

    Thank you to everyone that we met while taking our first "saltwater run" to the Iowa City, North Liberty and Cedar Rapids area that *were nice and welcoming* to us.  Nick, thank you for introducing yourself to us in the store.  The trip wasn't all bad, we got some great corals!  /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif  **the girlfriend**the other Cori/DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    To shed some sunshine on the subject, a friend on mine who is new to the hobby bought some corals from Eric in North Liberty today. He said the whole experience was pleasant and informative. He said Eric was super nice and generous. Nice to hear about a positive encounter. ps nick- tightwad says hi!

    a couple things that he said that made me laugh he said "everone on this girs web site is a bunch of wanna bs that think they know it all but they really dont and that he knows everything their is to know about "reefing" he has people from all around that come to just him for corals because he has the best of the best LOL" then he tried to say hes glad we didnt come buy any of his stuff because we probably have no money so that means my tank is **** and he doesnt want his "top of the line corals" going to a crappy set up.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]LOL now that's funny! I have seen pics of his tank on RC when he is trying to swindle people on there. And trust me it is nothing special. There are people on this site that have some insanely awesome tanks and his dosn't come close to the level of some of them.

    Seyzar I like the way you get down bro... Ive met marc in person actually... Came to buy a light from me, showed up and said he has to go sell his pos oseyysea light first to get the money but wanted to keep his bulbs. Thought it was shady but went along annd made him leave me a deposit and clearly didnt let him take my light then comes back an hour later (supposed to be 10 min) but he came back but was 40$ short. made him go 2 minutes away to the atm which took another 20. by this time I was already irritated and I could tell he had something wrong w him... He really does have some type of disorder. hes like 6' 150lbs dude you wouldnt have much fun with him.

    lol I forgot about that guy. He had an answer for everything tho didnt he....

    I hope he does view away... what an idiot. The "Cories" were so nice and I love visiting with them. With only 1 exception, there has never been a saltwater fish/coral person I have not enjoyed talking with...in 14 yrs...ever. If ever there was someone that thought they knew everything...whatever. No one ever knows everything, even the real experts.
