I am getting ready to stock my aquarium. I was looking at local private sale items to get a deal. There is one ad. that is selling the tank contents in pieces. For 100 lbs of live rock at $6/lb and 100 lbs. of sand for $1/lb. He is selling everything in the tank first and then the equiptment. The pricelist includes crabs/snails at $2 each and a 2 headed frogspawn for $25. There are other fish listed...2 clowns $13 each or 2 for $20. Fire shrimp payed $25 asking $20. Purple tang for $90, payed $110.
I found a different set-up on a whole 180 gal. tank for sale. It includes 100 lbs rock, 100 lbs sand, nice fish and mixed coral, skimmer, sump, stand. everything for $2000.
I guess my question is.....what is a fair price for used goods? I would like a deal.....I don't want to ask for too much of a deal though.
I want to respond to these 2 ads. and possibly look at the stuff this weekend but I want to have a feel for what is fair pricing.
Thankyou for reading.....all opinions are appreciated.
