50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stands

[Brownsnoutuk]

I dont really know how much these are worth, so im going to put them up at a rough guess and if no one buys them i'll slowly lower it - i mean slowly thought so dont hang around too long or they'll be gone. Im not in any rush to sell these, so dont be thinking you can steal them for nothing  

50 Gallon Aquarium (18W/20.5H/36L) With nice solid wood stand, Light fixture and glass lid, Heater and Filter. No cracks or chips, $125.

ALSO:

29 Gallon Aquarium (12W/18.5H/30L) With nice solid wood stand, Light fixture and lid, Heater and Filter. No cracks or chips, Another very nice aquarium. $100.

Fish/powerheads/plants/gravel not included with either tank except you can have the gravel out of the 29g if you want it.

Thanks. and if anybody wants to give me feedback on the prices, please do.

Theres an Emperor Biowheel 280 on the 29G.
And a Whisper 30-60 on the 50. (comes with a full box of filter cartridges)

Heaters are both the type Scott had at the swap and sell, is JEBO the brand? Theyre both 50 Watt Submersibles, i use one in each tank turned down as low as they go, and it keeps the tanks at 76-78 when the room temperature is 65. They werent expensive heaters, but i havent had a problem using them.

Well i put them on ebay, and they end in around 6 hours.

One is on $55, the other on $33. Hopefully they'll get more interest in the last couple of hours.
If anybodys interested in them please could you bid on them. Id hate to sell them for only $55 and $33.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

so its $55 for the 50g complete and $33 for the 29g complete?

[Brownsnoutuk]

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

the auctions already ended. i got more for the 50g than i expected, but not so much for the 29g.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

I was looking at the bid history for the 50g.  Doesn't seem strange that the winner was bidding against herself until someone outbid at the end?  I think her id was marya7009.  Maybe I don't know how to read it right.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

too be honest im not sure how ebay records the bids on the list.
i was really scared it was going to sell for $55, when it went above $100 i sighed relief. i just got the paypal payment 10 minutes ago.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

I think on the bid history deal, Marya made a proxy bid, and as other people outbid what was showing, it automaticly raised her bid to reflect the new high bid.
What I don't get, is on the 29g tank, the winning bid was placed 5 days before it ended, with the winner's ID not showing up anywhere before in the bidding.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

The winning bidder probably put in a proxy bid that was not outbid, thus you don't see his id bidding but once.  I know he had the high bid at $33.   I would be very careful taking a PayPal payment for a local pickup from someone you don't know.  PayPal requires you have an electronic proof of shipment in the event the buyer "says" they did not receive their item.  Even if you have them swear and sign a notarized delivery receipt if they claim they didn't receive the item, PayPal will still require you to refund their payment if there's not online tracking.  Of course you could transfer your funds out of PayPal so they won't be available for refund but PayPal would still freeze your account.

Re: 50 Gallon Oceanic and 29 Gallon Tanks for sale with stan

A proxy bid is probably what was done so you don't have to watch the bids, just put the highest amount you want pay and it will increase the min amount.

Also it will show the highest bidder not the ones beaten.
