someone is re-seller on this fourm not cool.

[Rob&Gab]

i love how im seeing some tanks being bought on this forum and then being resold on craigslist for a really big amount of money.. starting to fish me off. cause it was almost done to me already... Not gonna put out on blast over the post but you should stop what your doing... if your going to resell at least put it up on this forum where you just bought it from not even a few days ago.. soo shady... that your gonna buy it for a low price and sell it for wayyyyy higher then it was bought for..

 

[duromega]

that sucks!
usually people post free stuff or sell them for a very low price to help out the community but when you sell something cheap when you can get even more cash on ebay or CL it's not cool to see your item next day on CL for triple the price !

I agree it sucks....but this is the world we live in. This issnt a private forum...so anyone can come on here and prowl.

lets make it praviet and keep this community small and warm=]

this was done to me , i basically gave my tank away and i saw it on craigslist for 750 dollars. was the funniest thing i ever saw. that being said , it is really quite annoying.

In a way you cant get mad at that, everything thats sold is bought cheaper else where.IF you sold something cheap you were happy with the price you got,so if someone else sold it for more good for them. Charge what you want for what you sell,but dont get mad because some else made a better deal.

 

[Rob&Gab]

i think its such a shame like the would not be caught here doing that... that's why they bring it to another forum.

Once I sell something I could give a shat what they do with it. Just be happy that there is an abundance of buyers on our site

no that's not the point. its the point of resell if your telling the person blah blah blah and giving them a sob story saying how bad they want the tank they wanna set one up... and then they get the tank for cheap... and then resell it on craigslist for 2X 3X the amount. its just pathetic...

 

[SteveZ15]

it does suck but that how you make money,I personally there should be some kind of rule where you have to be a contribute to the forum to sell here or even buy here..this way everything is sold and bought in the forum between members..

I had two clowns that did that. Gave away a 90 gallon tank / stand for free. That "wrasse" turned around and sold it. The other clown gave a sob story, so my buddy practically sold him a 125 tank / stand for dirt cheap. Along with some other goodies. Turns out he was another "wrasse"
It's all good though, life goes on

I had it happen to me..I sold a 90 reef ready tank with stand,canopy,sump,return pump,lights..COMPLETE setup for 300 bucks a few years ago(I had nowhere to put it)i seen it on Craigslist for the next day!the best part is he used the pictures that I sent him in the Craigslist ad

 

[Rob&Gab]

i no its all good. im just saying its a little messed up cause these scabbs... you do somthing nice for someone and then they try and make a quick buck. i mean what can you do. i think its just a little messed up how you help someone out and then they do that... and then when they find out that people no they try and make excuses.

So call them out! If you let them get away with it, you're still "helping them out"!

That is also what the feedback mechanism is for.

 

[Moneymaks24]

Put them on blast so we know who to avoid.

 

[Gabe]

I agree say who it is.

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Leave them a reefer rating. Calling them out? Not according to site rules.
