    I went go on ebay from time to time just to see whats out there, and I started noticing what some of these people are asking for tanks, and other things they should probably be giving away.... Lol. Just wondering if anybody else noticed? :confused:

    So be fair though, buyers on Craigslist are notorious for low balling. I've talked to a lot of Craigslist sellers that just inflate their asking price to account for that. As long as everyone does their research a reasonable price should materialize.

    I love when buyers say it'll be a "CASH in hand" buy. What did they think I was going to take a hug or bag of recyclables as payment? ;D

    You know, here in San Diego, we have one store that sells all aquariums (new) for about $1 a gallon....no joke!! They're adv, on Craigslist to. This is everyday, not special price or 'on sale'. Name is Fountains Aquarium.
