Does miracles deliver to your house?

Does miracles deliver to your house?

Yes they will and do. The truck they send has no lift gate so you have to have means of off loading. You can get a truck with a lift gate but it's like $300 more for that truck.

Thats why I had to order a tank we could still lift off....

I just wish it would ship already. Paid final payment a week ago. Was told it would ship monday, then was told the overflow went in wednesday and would ship maybe thursday night. Called today and they said it would ship today. Kind of getting a run around now.....

Getting to be pretty common with most quality builders, Luck you get a tank that's built good after waiting a month for It. A friend was not so lucky after refusing the first tank the second wasn't much better, But useable and the Stand/canopy was the wrong color stain. Just hard to find good help these day's. Happy St Patty's Day...

I don't feel the run around yet, but we are on the 6th week. To be honest there was not many other choices in the price range for me. GC or Miracles that's it. Leemar is way West, AGE was more , Coast to Coast must have been made of gold it was so expensive.

For me GC was about half. But get a good quality product was more important.


Derek emailed me and said it shipped today !!! he would have tracking info monday as it was a response from his blackberry, i assume he was out of the office.

 

[kc350twin]

Hopefully mine is with yours or soon to be shipped.


Congrats again.... Ha Ha....

 

[mojo~]

Thanks, I am looking forward to getting it. Just hope they call before they come. I had them note the paperwork to do so.

 

[mojo~]

Got My tacking # today. Tank should be here Tuesday !

 

[kc350twin]

Mine shipped as well. Derek just emailed me back....

 

[mojo~]

well my tank is in town. but I wont be available until thursday so I set it up for then. Kinda want to go borrow a truck and go get it now.

 

[mojo~]

So I went and borrowed a truck from work and went and got the new tank. I couldnt let it sit there all week.

Here are the unload pics.

and the silicone work looks good too!

Nice mojo. Looks great!

Mine is set to be delivered tomorrow.

Thanks.Ill have to clean it up and I ll start working under the tank here soon. I have to plumb up a durso and figure out my return. Should be getting a sock holder for the 7 inch model tonight so I can mount it and get the plumbing all finished. Thursday I ll be pulling out my dosing pumps from my 57 and everything else. I am hoping to move it all in thursday and friday.

 

[kc350twin]

Hey what was the shipping weight of your crate?

How many people did it take to move it?


Kc3

 

[mojo~]

350lbs, I opened the crate in the truck and me and one other guy put it in the garage. I did not lift it in the crate.

2 could do it but its a heavy little sucker.

Silicone on there looks really, really good. That's a sweet tank.

Enjoy it!

 

[mojo~]

Thanks. They did do a pretty good job. So I hope I like it.

The holes in the overflow are huge. 1.5 in drain and a 1 inch return.I will probably reduce the the drain from 1.5 to 1.25 on top and down to 1 inch under the stand. Making for a nice durso.

 

[kc350twin]

Yeah, I chose the 1.5 but I think it's over kill for 300-400gph that I'm going to run. The ball valves in my area are nicer in 1.5". I will probably step down as well.
