Doing water changes
This guys post a 300 gallon tank with everything for $500 and his phone number is diconnected.
 
Probably a bogus post. I think people do that sometimes just to get a rise outta people.

I was trying to sell my 100gal. Some guy strung me along via e-mail for almost a week. We arranged a time for him to come take a look at it and he flaked. Never heard from him again. Probably for the better though. I decided to just keep that tank.
 
CL can be sketchy. I buy pretty much all my tanks from CL. I'm pretty strict with it though. I ONLY deal in cash. Must see the tank set up with water, etc.

and when I'm selling I say "sorry i hold the tank for no one. If you can get here then its yours. I don't care who called first."

To many people flake out on you. of course I've flaked out on others so....just part of cl.

Great resource none the less.
 
gr8 find 2 bad the number doesnt work....
 
Yeah man bummer.

Those deals do exist. I just missed a 150 gallon acrylic whole setup with filter heater stand.

The guy bought a new house and that was in the garage left by the old owner. He didn't know how much it was worth and was selling it for $200.

I got a 95 gallon with everything for $125. Never had one problem with it.

yeah i know. Arent you selling your set up soon?

yup...140g. then a few months from now selling my 180g

monster upgrade!!!:headbang2
 
thats too bad man
my local graiglist was selling a 55 complete with rattlesnake for 50 bucks turns out the snake was actually a big bull.

i dont know how you could get those mixed up.
 
Yeah i've seen the same problems. Hopeful he just mistyped his number and you can still land the tank. As for flaking, I have had potential buyers both on CL and MFK string me along... then just disappear. Lol. <sigh>
