proformer Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I guess I won't be the only one with those questions: how old is it? condition? brand/model of filter, heater, accessories, tank. looks like it says AR980 on the tank? do you sell the fish as well?

Josh Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Tanks are a hard thing to price. I personally wouldn't buy a tank like that (personal choice), but others like them. Being that you can a buy a new one for close to $500, I would say John is pretty close to the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fongyfong Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 yeah i think brandnew for that is around 700, i rekon max you could get for it is 200, i had a 4 foot one and sold it for 250 with a whole bunch of other stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pseudotrop Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 no way i wouldn't part with it for $100 looks like ill keep it as a spare as im getting a 5ft for free from a mate with hood and cabinet ..... Solution: Advertise it for sale at a price you would part with it, if it doesn't sell, keep it as a spare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobbin4 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) Chucked it in the search bar, 4fter on Ebay $305 at present Aqua one, ehiem filter, etc. 3fter's from $70 up to $400, new $350 to $700. Check for yourself. NO i would not part with it for $100 as well??. Edited May 26, 2010 by dobbin4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superbad0417 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 mate i would rather store it in the garage than sell it for such a low price, $100 isn't even enough for a canister filter .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbad, you asked for opinions. And you got them. Because of the way that you write your replies it seems that you are taking the opinions personally. Dobbin 4 has taken time to help you. We often don't get the returns on our goods that we want, but that's life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could pull $200 + on ebay maybe $300. Btw I sent you two pm's and got no reply??? i think if you advertise on ebay you should get 250/300 aslong as it was "fish ready" meaning, just ad water and fish there is a 4ft one selling on here for $300. i saw it when i was buyig fish, as soon as he told me it was for sale and the price i was looking for a reason to own a 7th tank lol . but yet its still not sold good luck with your sale ?
