Dave, this thing weight in at around 400 lbs. (oof!) Shipping cposts would bring the price up to close to the price of a new one at the LFS.

I'll also consider trades. I need a good return pump & dual 250w MH's.

Unfortunately no. Part of the problem has been on my end. When I originally spoke to the LFS about ordering a new replacement acrylic tank(180 72x24x24), with dual overflows & custom mounts for my Sea Swirls, I was quoted an easy price of under $600. I double checked the dimensions of the glass tank and found that it was 26" high, (must have been a senior moment!) and that a 24" tank would show a gap between the top of the tank & the canopy. OOPS! Called the LFS back, gave them the NEW dimensions. New price...$1450. Apparently, Tru-Vu says any tank 48" or longer, and over 24" in height MUST be made from 1" acrylic, instead of the 1/2" they build the standard 24" high tanks from.
Checking into having the stand legs cut & shortened to accomodate the shorter tank. I wanted to have them cut so I could get this beast down the hall into my home office anyway.
Sill available, just temporarily on hold.

Wooddood,
I just mic my 120gal glass tank and the sides are 1/2"(.500) and the bottom is 5/8"(.625). I believe acrylic tanks are thicker,because the acrylic bows more when fill with water.
