I ordered from a guy named Duane. Excellent corals and pretty cheap shipping.
But tamra&steven is right, please make sure you look at the shipping first! Most that are listed for only $10 are standard shipping, and you have to get a quote for 2 day or overnight. They can be sneaky! Duane ships USPS overnight and it's something like $25. If you order a lot, it's well worth it!

Yeah I always read the details on ebay because there are a lot of ways to be sneaks. we ordered from someone with the ebay name "crazyreefing" I'll post how everything turns out when i get the corals. we got a bunch of really nice looking zoa frags for only like 10-12 bucks a piece.

I got my Acan frags from eBay. Shipping was $20 for the first and $5 for each additional. That's because I'm 1 day USPS/UPS from the shipper.
You really need to check the reputation of the seller on eBay too. I'm not saying that those who are new are bad, just be cautious.

I have purchased from Duane as well and am happy with with what I got and the price.
The seller Mr.Coral has some pretty good stuff and at good prices but if you order from him make him ship via UPS or FedEx. DHL just doesn't cut it with overnight shipments.
