look out for this Guy that goes by nf88tino. I don't know what he was thinking when he sold me a Mp10 W Es lied to me by putting it in a different box and posting them like it where almost new. I know, my fault for not checking. trusting the fellow reefer from Manhattan reefs . Did not even told me that the shaft was broken. He had taped it. What was he thinking. I would not have found out . The shaft only cost two dollars. I mean if he was just straight up to me it would have been ok but no not that. I would have work with him if he would just told me what was wrong. The bad thing was I did not use it and sold it to a follow reefer in Manhattan reef and I told him the same thing he told me and he made me look like a liar. It was a big embarrassment. I may good though. I gave the guy back the money and took the hit because I would not do that to a fellow Reefers. What's funny is I gave the guy a chance by sending him a private message and he still did not respond back to this day . Yes I lost money, but I did not lose my integrity. So fellow Reefers be careful. Always check and don't trust no man even in Manhattan Reef, just wanted to let you guys know. Maybe, I trust my fellow reefers in Manhattan reef to tell me the truth to much.
What do you think?

I havent heard that reason but it does make sense,,the ratings dont lie, actually if there are maybe 5 bad ratings for every 1 reported. Theres been people that went by 2 or 3 different names.

To throw my two cents in I wouldn't feel comfortable selling to a person something that has been thriving in my tank for it to die in another less cared for tank. That why I ask the Person how big is your tank and how long has it been running. If I don't feel comfortable I won't sell

Hate to hear stories like this that's why it's important to leave a feed back reefer rating, it's the first thing I do after I complete a transaction. Hasn't happened to me I've been lucky and meet a few good reefers here so far.

Happened to me twice. I posted negative feedback and they responded to post negative feedback about me. I cannot get that removed.

What I have learned .... never buy anything without testing it. Never buy when someone insists on meeting in a neutral location.

It is very sad that slime ball *******s on this forum need to rip other people off for a few hundred dollars.

It is very sad that there is no moderation to prevent these scam artists from hurting your reputation if you post negative feedback.

I previously sold an mp10 but tested it before and found out it wasnt working right, the shaft was busted and needed a new wet side. Informed the guy about it, think the part was like $60 and offered to sell it for minus the cost of the replacement part. Sad to hear there is dishonest people on this site. Dont be discouraged there are still some awesom people here. Take it as a lesson learned.

At least you ask those questions and if you feel uncomfortable then you not selling you stuff some people don't ask nothing they just be like oh you dont have no ratings im not selling you my corals
