Is this a good deal?

[08trdoffroad]

Hey guys,
I am looking at purchasing a new/used but new to me tank, I just wanted some input on whether or not it is a good deal. Here is the link to the local classified ad.

I am also struggling with the glass vs. acrylic debate. I have never had an acrylic tank. Any insight on this?

Thanks,
Daniel

Acrylic scratches easier, but is clearer and can be buffed. It is also typically more expensive/worth more. Theres no clear good deal or not, it all depends on how much you personally value the items with it. I just got a 90 gallon with about the equivelent of extras for $150, but its glass.

To be honest i would say heck ya. But you can get a little smaller tanks for way cheaper. I just got a 150 glass with everything for $200 and its well worth over a grand if not more

I don't want to go any smaller. A 180 is the smallest that I am considering. So with what is included I am not getting screwed or anything. From the research I have done, just the tank alone is around $1k new...

Just be wary of KSL. A lot of people try to screw you on there.

I have been in contact with the seller on a local forum (where he is well known). And am pretty comfortable with the situation. I will not hand over a penny for anything until I see it and look it over extremely well.

If it has everything he says it does. I'd pay 800 if I had the spare change around.
