100 gph return pump for 200.00?---either a typo or just insane

 

[Jason.Wright]

Those are prices he paid new. He's trying to sell the whole thing for $700. I can't edit the post above.

i'm sorry to sound synical, but if he paid 200.00 for a 100gph pump, i got some maxi jets i can sell him for 400.00 a piece

I would not get too caught up in the "retail" price quotes as it really is irrelevant. If someone is looking for a 90 it sounds like it is worth looking at....as we all know, used is typically a fraction of the original retail price. If he has not sold it in a couple of weeks, I would bet his price will drop a couple of hundred..............

that's not what i am talking about, i am saying that from the post it said he paid 200.00 for a 100gph pump, thats what i was referring too, not what price he was selling for--and sometimes RUDOLPH, retail prices are revelant
