ATTENTION Reef Tank Garage Sale

[reefrubble]

I have received permission to set up a group garage sale,in the parking lot of Fish and Other Ichthy Stuff. This will take place Sunday July 9 th. 11:00 Am till 4:00 PM . There will be space for approximately 20 people to set up tables. You will need to supply your own table,and you will also be responsible to clean up your own area,after the sale. This is your chance to unload your extra equipment ( To Make Room For More Stuff )> I'm sure there will be a lot of bargains. You may buy sell ,or trade dry goods,or equipment,BUT NO LIVE STOCK. This garage sale will be for hobbyist only, no Tank service business,or resell for profit people. We are just using this space,and the garage sale is in no way connected to Fish and Other Ichthy Stuff.
If you wish to take part in this sale you need to RSVP by July 1 st. Thank you, Ted From ANCHOR.

WOW thats awsome, Id like to be a part of this for sure!!! Can you count me in?, is there a fee for setting a table up?? I have lights and other stuff I can unload!!! That is VERY VERY nice of John to accept this. Thanks TED

What a great idea!

 

[kabboord]

Brilliant. Everyone sells all their stuff, then goes inside and blows it on livestock. I know I'll stop by.

 

[pmike25]

Ted,

Great idea. Thanks for doing this.

John, Thanks for letting them set up the garage store in your plaza.

I think it will work great.

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks for the kind words. It just seem to make sense to have everyone at one location. This makes it easy for buyers,and sellers.

 

[amheck]

pretty neat. Maybe I can set up a new tank for cheap!

 

[reefrubble]

Come on everyone,the only one signed up as a vender so far is pmike25. This is a great opportunity to sell your unused stuff. Come on make the wife happy.

Hey Ted, Robthorn is on board with me, but I think hes gonna share a table with me if thats ok, Its only gonna be me, I thought my wife was gonna go but she isnt. So if he shares a table with me than more people can get in on this awsome event!!! Is that OK?

I just want to make sure he gets in!!!

Wow, this is great. I won't have anything for sale seeing I'm still pretty new to this great hobby, but I'll definatly be there to check it out and hope to get a good deal and upgrade what needs to be upgraded.

Thanks to everyone who is getting this event running.

 

[robthorn]

hey ted as mike stated I will be there and sharing a table with him. no need to take up too much room.

I will be in Indiana for my brother's wedding that weekend. If anyone is interested in selling some of my stuff along with theirs for a cut, let me know. We have a lot of fish stuff in our garage to get rid of some of it basically new.

 

[pmike25]

Yeah if you like I can help you sell, Ill have a big table!!! I just got another tank a 58 gall , so some of your stuff I might need and buy!!!

Unless Ted has a better idea, I figure two people can equally occupy an area approximately 8’x16’, a parking space. Each individual will have an area roughly 4’x16’ to present their items. With this configuration my parking lot can handle 20 sellers. If needed, extra sellers may be accommodated.

My suggestions;

1. Each person who wishes to sell should send Ted, reefrubble, a PM stating their intent before July 1.

2. On July 1, Ted and I will map out the area based upon the received requests. To be fair, assignments should be based upon the time-stamps of the PMs.

3. On July 2, the announcement of the sellers should be posted. If any “table” sharing is necessary it can be then be discussed.

4. As a form of advertisement for the event, each seller should make a brief post within this thread as to the items he/she will be bring to the sale. Also, it would be nice if each seller agrees not to discuss pricing or make premature sales to ensure the event’s draw.


Lastly, based upon popular request cookies will be served.

 

[reefrubble]

That sounds like a good plan to me. Also What kind of cookies are we having John? Ted

 

[pmike25]

Those are good ideas!!! Ohh so after all there is gonna be cookies!!!! Sweet!!

John and Ted- Thanks so much for setting up this great event, its such and awsome idea. If theres anything I can do to help, please dont hesitate to ask. Cant wait to meet the people I have talked to and who has helped me in the quest of reef keeping!!!

I talked with John about this yesterday afternoon hopefully this will be a great thing I know i will be down shopping for any parts I might be able to use and of course going into johns store to see if any choice morsels are still there

 

[reefrubble]

We still have a lot of space left,but you need to get your request in early to be guaranteed a space. Just send me a PM,and give me an idea what you have to sell. Ted
