Crazy CL postings

Apparently someone bought a bunch of petco tanks and is trying to rip people off here in Baton Rouge.

This person wants $275 for a 55g. His mark up is outrageous. Seems like this should be illegal.

Crazy thing is yours is going to get flagged and his won't. I've posted things like you several times and they usually only last about an hour. I hope no one is crazy enough to buy it without checking the price on a new one.

Just curious..why do they get flaged?..

 

[cichlidaddicted]

Because there's more a holes selling tanks at ridiculous prices than non a holes calling them out on it. I assume its the people listing the tanks doing the flagging and no matter how crazy it is it still fits into cl regulations. Buyer beware should be their moto

one word "STUPID"

My favorite part was "huge for a 40 gal"...... Um, I guess in the seller's universe the rules of physics are different because here....40 gal is always 40 gal!

It actually is originally Shane Linder's, just been borrowed a couple of times.

 

[AquaStudent]

hmmmmm...."Huge size for a 40"
40 gallons is still 40 gallons. A larger 40 gallon tank can't be a 40 gallon...

 

[gravel_digger]

@AquaStudent

we are not being logical here 40 gallons can literally hold 60 gallons if you make your mind think it......

Still up and running.

Have you holier-than-thou nitpickers not considered the fact that it might hold 40 IMPERIAL gallons? Don't be so isolationist that you ignore our former British overlords. I hear they keep that type of catfish pictured in the ad.

 

[EdWhite]

And... They raised their price on the 40 to $300.

uhhh... does that mean they are selling them fast enough that they thought they could be getting more out of them?!?
