Well, to be fair, there are some people in this hobby who have no idea what they're doing too. They spend a ton of money on huge tanks, pay people to come maintenance them, and then decide after a while to move on. These people have paid retail (or marked up retail by the service person) on their stuff, and very well could have paid that astronomically high price for it, and expect to get it back. That shows in his asking price for his tank, and you see it all the time. There are a lot of people who honestly believe that what they have is worth something, and should sell for close to the outlandish price they paid to get it, because they never research it, look on Ebay and watch sale prices, or visit forums to see what hobbiest vs. retail prices are. I'm not saying he's a boy scout...obviously he's not. But he could be honestly misinformed himself about what he has, and is trying to get most of what he paid for it, not what a fair price would be.
