    I love those Zoas, but at that price, I could wait. Truth be told, I dont feel like paying that price.

    Those aren't even that nice IMO. $100 per polyp makes me sick to my stomach, but when that one polyp sold for $305 I nearly fainted.

    Purple hornets are the latest "fad" zoa/coral. Once in a while it will change to something new that has come up, such as the "My Miami" Chalice from WWC that is selling for $1500 an eye. The first polyp sold for more then $300 on ebay, then again, but now depending on where you get it from, can go from $50-$100 a polyp. IMO, it's a ridiculous price and people get very edgy if you start talking about "true" PHs vs. non-true PHs. IMO, people just use that distinction to justify paying that absurd amount of money.
