I also have bought two blue star leoapard from lfs and both were unsuccessful. ..i have never seen an ideal blue star leopard wrasse specimen feeding and doing great that was for sale at my lfs or even a blue star leopard in general is hard to come by ...so i have ordered mine from LA and will be in today i hope she comes in good but at least this time like @Flashy Fins stated the warranty is nice to have on fish as sensitive as these for sure
