Title: Should I get this HMPK pair?


Mumusuki - January 14, 2007 09:53 PM (GMT)
I really really like this pair. And it is the U.S..... and the seller breeds HMs, so I may get some blue and turq females from him, to save on shipping...
I just LOVE them :wub:

Opinions?

They are so good looking that I would attempt to make lil' inked portraits of them..

Get them! I've never seen anything so sparkly and pretty, lol!

:wub: :wub: :wub:

Ahh, they're gorgeous~ Now you make me have itchy fingers for them. But I won't try to take from Mumu. -_- :P

Mumusuki - January 14, 2007 10:48 PM (GMT)
Thanks Haeun! LOL I GREATLY appreciate your restraint!
I just e-mailed the seller, and I can get 4 steel or royal HM females for $12!!! or green HM females for $12 each!! I will probably get 3 royals and a steel to go with this pair... the grand total with shipping will come out to $72( :o :( ) if I get the pair for the minimum bid, which is $25.... I hope nobody else tries to outbid me when I bid :( ..... I like them too much.

Mumu! it is time for you to get those now. They are hard to find something like that as a pair. The colors are perfect contrast. They should be good for you to practice to breed too. The rays is good! At least 4 rays as I can see. Go get it! I hope nobody bid on them too. :D

Mumusuki - January 14, 2007 11:14 PM (GMT)
I hope nobody bids on them too!!!! You know, you could always make up the difference in the money I have and the winning bid if you REALLY want to help me out! LOL ^_^

yeevia2006 - January 14, 2007 11:20 PM (GMT)
Just go ask your MAMA!!!! ;)

Mumusuki - January 14, 2007 11:42 PM (GMT)
Uh... I'm already too scared to ask my mom if I can buy them in the first place!!! She will probably not want me to spend so much money on fish... although, I did get $100 for Christmas as a gift, so I will just say that I am buying a gift for myself. ^_^

yeevia2006 - January 14, 2007 11:54 PM (GMT)
lol :lolo:

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 12:25 AM (GMT)
Ah... now I am all wound up that maybe I shouldn't bid yet, because that will attract attention to the auction..... I know I always check what auctions have bids on them when I am Aquabid surfing, just because those are usually the best fish.... I am also really nervous that someone will outbid me.

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 12:28 AM (GMT)
Don't worried. If the bettas are yours, it will be yours. : If not, there still got a lot of bettas out there for you. ;)

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 12:33 AM (GMT)
.......are you sure about that yeevs? LOL This pair seems once in a lifetime. :) At least to me.

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 12:49 AM (GMT)
Uha. In my experience at aquabid, there always has something better than now. Remember I bought a lot before. I am so excite to get fancy marble now. :WOU Who knows tomorrow got a new type of color like rainbow. :Y

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 01:23 AM (GMT)
That's true, there will always be something new... :D But still.... I want that pair :Y LOL

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 03:35 AM (GMT)
After you get that pair, then you see another better pair that you want so bad. :rolleyes:

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 04:07 AM (GMT)
Oh no! This auction has been advertised on another site(petfish). There is no way I am going to get them now... :(

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 05:44 AM (GMT)
Just bid it and then go to the other site. Then tell them that you are the one who bid and want that bettas real bad. Tell them not to bid on it. LOL :lolo:

Haeun - January 15, 2007 06:09 AM (GMT)
:( Yea, same. I was eyeing this AWESOME black and white HMCTPK on Aquabid, but I found out that a million and one other people are ALSO eyeing him on another forum.

:( I emailed the seller if he had more from the spawn, but I doubt they will be as pretty as him... :(

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 07:53 AM (GMT)
yes, who got money will going to get it. Anyway, the pair is not the top notch or the best of a champion in ibc standard. I am not sure the male has even a 180 degree spread tail. beside the fins on the male is not big enough. it just the color attraction. so here a mind of peace if someone really got it. ^_^ There always still a better pair in the future. ;)

:LOL: I've heard that a million time but first time I've heard it on line.

I hope you get them Mumu. Are you getting the black/white marble too? An addition $15 or so isn't much since you're already spending 3/4 of $100 :OO

Good luck! :D

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 05:36 PM (GMT)
I don't know Aiwen.... maybe, but as of now, I have no plan to get more from that seller on top of the 6 I have already planned... I don't think I have that much more room...

AiWen, I am a great philosopher. LOL :OO

I think the black and white also from the same spawned. My guess. :P

Mumusuki - January 15, 2007 07:29 PM (GMT)
I just don't think I have the room for him right now. I am already giving my royal blue SD, Herman, to a betta person in my neighborhood that wants to start breeding, to make room for this HMPK marble male... that is, if I even win the pair.

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 07:36 PM (GMT)
You don't have room for the grizzle pair too right? :Whisssss

nutty - January 15, 2007 11:42 PM (GMT)
Those are beautiful fish! It is true that there always are going to be fish to dream about getting and drool over. My opinion - go for it. Sit and wait for the last minute to submit your bid and be sure to increase your max bid incase someone else is doing the same thing. Another thing to keep in mind, even if you dont win on bidding, you know the breeder has more available. the general public doesn't. :knowwhat

yeevia2006 - January 15, 2007 11:47 PM (GMT)
dito

FishGuy81 - January 16, 2007 12:12 AM (GMT)
i e-mailed the seller to see if he has more pairs of the turquioise marbles but he doesn't so MuMu if someone starts to outbid you and you can't go any higher let me know I'll starting bidding and I'll make sure I win.

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 12:44 AM (GMT)
Alright, thanks fishguy. I will be sure to let you know.
Well, I submitted minimum bid before I read your post nutty.
Yeevs, I could MAKE room for the grizzles!!!!! I just don't have room for the black marble, which is not something I want to breed right now. And that is the reason why I "don't have room".

yeevia2006 - January 16, 2007 12:48 AM (GMT)
LOL at MUMU! :OO

Well, I hope MUMU or fishguy, either one will get it and breed.
So far I had look at aquabid and I don't see any nice bettas. They are ok but not go GAGA :bonkers Yet. Just save your money and when I really see a pair, I will tell you. :Y
If you found one and want opinion, just link it to me and let me see it. ;)

FishGuy81 - January 16, 2007 12:51 AM (GMT)
hey yeevia if you have any HMPK pairs for sale. PM me

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 12:53 AM (GMT)
Well, the problem is, I can't buy Thai bettas. This pair is one of the best pairs that I have seen that are in the U.S. Also, this seller is the seller whose females you recommended to me for breeding, Yeevs.... I am getting some of those too. ^_^

yeevia2006 - January 16, 2007 12:54 AM (GMT)
As now, I have plakats. :lolo:

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 12:54 AM (GMT)
I bid on them ^_^

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 12:57 AM (GMT)
Well... I am constantly refreshing to see if I am the highest bidder.... :mellow: *refresh* :mellow: *refresh* :mellow: *refresh* :mellow: LOL You get the point

yeevia2006 - January 16, 2007 04:13 AM (GMT)
Opps. I just bid over it. :OO :OO :OO :LOL: :JK

Vaca

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 05:17 AM (GMT)
I freaked when I read that. Mean Yeevs :P

yeevia2006 - January 16, 2007 05:56 AM (GMT)
HEHEHE I am bad! :nananana

Mumusuki - January 16, 2007 10:26 PM (GMT)
I have been outbid.... someone's proxy is higher then mine. How high do you think this pair is worth? When should I stop?

FishGuy81 - January 17, 2007 12:13 AM (GMT)
hey Mumu are you the higher bidder cause it's says bumped up by you. Does that mean your the highest. Also let me know if you can't bid anymore then I will.
