Will we buy your Koi?Sadly, no. The reasons for this are very simple. Koi are living creatures and as such are prone to disease and parasitic attacks to name just a few afflictions. We carry a huge value of stock in our facilities. Should a disease or parasitic outbreak hit these facilities we would be wiped off the face of the earth financially. We simply cannot and will not take this risk. In short and at the risk of being blunt: We will not be involved in selling your Koi in any way whatsoever. This is a firm company policy and it is not negotiable. Further to that we do not advocate selling pathways for Koi. If you need to sell your Koi read on below. We do not do onsite valuations of Koi collections. We also do not get involved with insurance claims whatsoever. They always have been, and always will be a monumental waste of our (and your) time. There is an upside. There are other ways to be move your fish. 1. Be realistic. The chances of having a valuable Koi in your collection if you have not been buying valuable Koi to begin with are remote to the point of being negligible. Don't assume that your Koi is worth thousands when it may well be only a much loved family pet and hence of sentimental value only. A large Koi is not the same thing as a valuable Koi and if it were you would know it's value! Why would you otherwise have a R10k fish swimming in your pond? The short answer is that in all likelihood you don't. 2. When in doubt, send us a photograph of the fish and we will let you know. Bowl the fish in a blue bowl and clear water - otherwise it is impossible to tell with the fish just swimming in a pond. Try and send us more than one picture if at all possible. The more we can see the more accurately we can tell the value of the fish. Believe it or not, we need to be able to see just about every scale on the beast! 3. Consider the classifieds. Make your price realistic or even free to good home. ALWAYS check the size of the pond the fish is going to - and what filtration is being used. 4. You can even auction your fish online here. Quick and easy. 5. Do you know someone else with a suitable pond? Quite often giving fish away is easier than you think... 6. Build a new bigger pond for your fish....! Extreme but we know quite a few people who have done it!
