Title: $20 -100 gal aquarium MICHAGAN area on EBAY!
Post by: shatanka on December 30, 2012, 07:46:54 PM
Hey to those who may live in the Oscoda, Michigan area, I just saw this 100 gal tank on ebay starting at only $20 bid, but can be had for $40 for buy it now! WOW, wish I lived up by there! I don't know this person, nor do I have anything to do with this item, just letting whomever know about it in case they are interested. It seems like a great deal!

Ahhh...yeah, a 55 then! Sorry! I guess I should have written and asked first to find out before posting to anyone that may have been interested. Like I said, not my ad, just one I found on ebay. Oh well. It still is a good buy at a $20 bid! Just thought I'd try and help out in case anyone was interested.

I found out real fast that most people don't have clue what size there tanks are. That's still not a bad price for a 55
I got a 55 cheap that way guy said it was a 90. I paid 35 for it.

Yes I don't know how many 75, 90, 100 gallon tanks I've called about that ended up being a 55. I've come to the conclusion that most people have no idea what they have......and some don't particularly like being told how far off they were lol

My very first tank was a 29 gallon that I was told was a 45 gallon.  I don't remember how or why I figured out what it really was but I sure learned to ask for dimensions.

Hey, not a problem!  It's still a really great deal @ $20.  Any time I can get tanks for around $1 per gallon or less, I'm happy.  I think my best deal was a craigslist deal for 3 - 55's & 2 - 75's for $165.

Just checked this auction and the tank is up to $102.50.  I sent them a message telling them the tank wasn't 100 gallons with the dimensions they sent to me.  They replied, "My tank holds 55 galllons I have the box for it from when I bought it".
