well I bought this skimmer
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120458126216&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
He says he thinks its an ETSS 600, however, when I look at other pictures of the 600, it looks different. Can anyone confirm/deny that this is a 600?
If its a 600, did I get a good deal?
Thanks
Hey, Greg! You just bought my skimmer (same name as on eBay). I sent you messages through eBay. Yeah, like I mentioned, only difference is the color of the plumbing parts gray vs. white and top lid of skimmer cup (round vs. square). I bought it at a LFS yrs ago where I used to work part-time to pay for my hobby (haha). But they're no longer in business, so I couldn't find out the model, but 99% sure it's an older model 600 when you compare stock pic and my pics in the ad.
Anyway, I got your payment and will ship it out via FedEx today or tomorrow, whenever my boss let's me leave work early. Thanks and feel free to let me and RC know how you like the skimmer. It worked well for my 125 gal. FO tank. Now, I'm skimmerless 'til I can afford a BK 160 mini skimmer.
As far as did you get a good deal...let me just say $125 used vs. $479-$549 new. I think you did!
EDIT: Let me say that since you're a RC member, if you're not happy w/ it, just let me know. I know I said "no returns, sale is final", but I change my mind and you could send it back if you're not happy with it for any reason and I'll refund your $$$$ minus S&H. I have 100% FB and been a member of RC and eBay for years, I don't want anyone to question my credibility on one transaction. But if you are happy w/ it, let me know either on eBay or through this thread on RC. The ETSS skimmer pulled out a lot of waste when I used it, you should be happy w/ its performance.
