Whats the pump for ? Dosing ? Not a fast pump, but powerful ?

I'm sorry, is this the classifieds? Either I got the wrong forum, or this is just a shameless attempt to plug your used pump and try to get a few more bidders for that extra couple of cents....

Um....there's an entire forum dedicated to selling equipment: this isn't it.

 

[chris s1]

theres nothing more lame than being an internet nazi, did it really ruin your day to read this thread? give me a break. im glad i read it, i got to read your statement about a shameless plug, then the guy basically told you what a goon you are and that he just bought the pump, lol... get a life.

skysdale, read my lips. I'm not SELLING this. I just BOUGHT this from ebay. look at the high bidder rvkjr, look at my name Rob Klein (jr). If you take the time to look at the time I posted this and the time the auction ended you'd see I posted many hours after the end of the auction. Don't be a jerk.

That the truth Lunchbucket. It's amazing watching people pay retail or mail order prices for used equipment. I was bidding ona year old dynamaster which can be had for $46 new. Sold for $43. I figure this dosing pump sells for about $200+ new.

 

[outerbank]

Rob, it looks like you got a steal!! Great! I have a litermeter and I think it cost me about $250

Skylsdale get a life, Rob provided a service to the whole board by showing a good deal.

Rob sweet deal, I have been spending a good amount of time tracking deals in the scuba section, some items with very little use sell for 20% of retail. Makes you wonder about the mark up.

 

[esmithiii]

Rob,

Is this a dosing pump? What is the 4.2 GPH thing? What would you use the pump for?

E

 

[Rob Klein]

Going to use it as a doser. Not sure about the 4gph, I'd have to assume that's a maximum which would make it one heck of a doser =). I'm betting they meant to post 4 gallons per day.

This was a random sample of Ebay........what a pity.... a year ago - I got great deals on there...

GV

 

[skylsdale]

Thank you GV....my sentiments exactly. Personally, I dislike sorting through all the crap at Ebay, and this was the first ebay-related post I've seen without someone trying to grab a bigger audience for their item. I didn't check the link because I've been to ebay plenty of times and didn't feel the need to go their again. I assumed any pertinent information to the post would have been written (i.e. I got a great deal on Ebay); I didn't expect a random link being the sole content of the message.

If my ubrupt manner and minor ignorance earned me the title of "internet nazi"...so be it

.

 

[JohnD]

You really have to sort the wheat from the chaff to find the really good deals at Ebay. I agree with GV, there is far more chaff.

Rob - good find!

 

[waterloomarc]

I couldn't agree more. I just bought a new pump from an online store for 62 bucks, somebody was selling a used one on e-bay (I forget what the original price was) with a high bid of 74 bucks!

Some of these people should really do their homework.

Cheers

 

[Green Mariner]

Hey if it's on an auction it must be a deal!

 

[troyrb]

I check ebay for aquarium supply deals every week. I haven't really bought much besides a nice ground probe for $3, a 110 watt PC JBJ lamp, and a few other small things. I have sold a few things also like tests kits that I didn't like (red sea) and chemicals that I decided I didn't really need. Its nice for people like me that are new to SW aquariums and sometimes buy the wrong things to have a place to sell this stuff instead of just throwing it away. I always get good complements when selling stuff and I have never had a major problem with anything I bought on ebay.

 

[Mabu]

Bah! You people need to learn how to use the SEARCH feature properly, then you can find exactly what you want.

Do a search on "dosing pump" and wallah, lots of goodies. I got a medical-grade dosing pump off ebay for $56 and it works well.
