Looks dead to me

Well, a guy that sells coral from his home reef business here in my area had a large dragon soul favia for sale, i've asked for photos and he sent me this. It looks 100% dead to me, but he says i am wrong.  Have i lost my marbles?

 

yep looks dead to me too.

 

look's dead to me two

 

I've asked for picts over and over before i drove to his "store" at his house, and this is what he sends me after 2 weeks. I dont see ANY tissue, but he says its fine! and its $60

 

looks ok to me just a bad pic to much light centered on it for the pic

 

Well, this is what i knew a healthy one to look like.

 

lol, rockin thats funny man i hope this wasnt for real ?

 

tell that guy i have some ocean side property in iowa....

 

Swear on my very life this is for real.

 

Looks dead to me. I mean come on the crabs are picking the skelaton clean lol.

 

i know. Do i look stupid or something?

 

well your not blonde....even though i like blonde chicks, lol.

I would send that picture back to him and make sure he sent you the right pic. If he thinks that is alive he needs to get out of the hobby. That not only looks dead it is DEAD, very DEAD!!

 

Looks like a really nice antarctic coral! What a joke!

 

The screwed up thing is that he is trying to sell it.

 

Yup... i didnt wanna be a jerk to him, so i asked him if it was "healthy" he emailed back, "yes, it is" I said "are you sure that isnt it's skeleton?" "No, it's fine, my Iphone takes bad photos." I said "Isn't it odd that the crabs are walking on top of it like that? So this coral is fine?" "Yes, and its $50"
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? I must be losing my mind!
And i love dumb blond jokes as much as the next brunette  =)

 

I'm sure you can all guess who i am referring to.
