Are the tank deals as good as they are sayong on the site? A dollar?

It should say Cost + $1.00

Yeah, I would like to know as well. A vendor here is selling it for $225 so it should be below $200. I'm looking to buy one. Maybe a new stand if it's cheap.

 

[House of Laughter]

nah, likely they are close to $225 0- not much (if any ) margin on these suckers.

I know someone just bought a 75 at "cost" and it was in the $175 area

A 90 from glass cages is $150 - customizing it with drilled and overflow would be close to $250 - I would get it custom before All glass -

I want to go too. Tagging along anyone from ct?

 

[jiggy]

pet stores do not make money on tanks, they make money on the stuff u put into the tank. retail is pretty close to cost from what i understand, and perishables (livestock) markup is 400%

 

[charile1]

Absolutefish is selling them for $275 (Retail Price). I doubt it's going to be below $200.

They had both the last two years. You should call the store to confirm.

Hey guys,

SO lets do a pre-meet at clifton commons on rt3 in NJ. Where is the place you guys met before you headed out to Absolutelyfish?

 

[JRod]

2 hour waits, wow!

I went to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd ones they had. Got on line with about 30 mins before hand and got right in. 15 or so people in the line. Wow how times have changed. Always bought livestock during the sale. Thing is for the nice livestock, you have to be in the door really early. Alot of people close go the night before and scope out what they want and then when they hit the door first, they go straight for it.

Went to AF this afternoon. They have all new saltwater coral tanks and flooring. It looks wonderful. And looks like they lowered some of their prices. Yes they have live rock for sale. If you are looking for frags, they have an nice frag tank of corals for 19.99 a piece or 2 for 34.99.

They told me they are expecting a large turnout for MM


Regards
