deal of the century

Postby caboose on Mon Feb 06, 2006 9:47 am

BOOO YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! man i am good!!!! i just got the best deal i could possiably ask for. i call about a 75 gal for sale in the traders helper a sale paper, and was just wanting the filters and a hood maybe. well...........the more i talked to the couple over the phone and the more they got to know me, the more they wanted to sell me their tank. well come to find lynda and terry know ppl we know and my husband matt and terry know each other also. so it was this big reuioin over the phone. well terry told me what all filters and what the hood looked like and that he was willing to sell them seperatly to me. but then he also decided to tell me what all the tank comes with.

he was asking $350 for this
75 gallon tank
hood and oak stand
emperor 400
emperor 800
water circulation system(? i have no clue what that is?)all i know is it moves the water and can double as an additional filter
decor, rocks and gravel
and an extra....an EXTRA 55 GALLON TANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and not to mention that he lowered his price to $250!!!!!!!!!!! and lynda said it might be a 90 galllon, b/c our pet stores aren''t the brightest ppl!!! i am love this though. but snice we know these wonderful lost friends of ours, they are letting us pay $50 dollars untill my husband gets paid, plus this is the sad part of the story

lynda's son has brain cancer. he had two o's and they had to get rid of them and now they are selling the tanks b/c he keeps asking when are we getting more fish. not to mention she wants to rearrange her living room and doesn't have the space for the two tanks. hell i don't even have the room but i am getting them any ways!!!!! well as soon as i get a place of our own we will have them set up and running.

Congrat's on the wicked deal caboose. Sorry to hear about your friends son. You might want to invite him over to watch your tanks when you get them set up.

already have and he loves to look for arrow heads and stuff like that and my husbands house is just loaded with them so i told her to bring him over one day.

and these ppl are awsome, we have a comanche pick up swb and there was just enough room for the 75 and the 55 with out them touching and possiably getting broke, and they are bring the stand and the rest of the filters and decore to us!!!
