Edmonton fish related Garage Sale????
 

I was just wondering what people thought of having a garage sale of all the unused aquarium related stuff.
this would be the perfect oppurtunity to get rid of everything you don't need.
I have so much stuff to get rid of it is scary.
If we advertised it for a couple of weeks in the Bargain finder, we might get a bit of a response.
I might also suggest having frags and livestock you dont' need or want anymore for people to buy as well.
I would be willing to open up the back of my shop/store for people to set up tables and such.
I would be willing to organize getting the license and advertising as I need to clean house and it will help let new people know about my store at the same time.
I am thinking next month for a time frame.
LMK what you think

Sounds like a good idea, I don't know about the liverstock though, maybe some livestock :lol::razz: Sorry I couldn't resist!

Sounds like a good idea seeing I have to start filling my new 90 gal tank with some live stock.

That does sound like a great idea, I got a few things that i'm sure I don't need.

thats an awesome idea best one yet :razz:also a good way to actually get together with the others that post here on the forum, what about having a BBQ set up and running with the sale? i mean with enough people being interested this thing could get really super big real fast i dont have much to get rid of though maybe a couple of 5 gallon tanks and some other freshwater stuff im new to reefkeeping and i have just barely enough marine equipment. freshwater is welcome right?

I don't have anything to sell, but I would be there as a buyer. I could pick up a 10 gal QT tank and if there were frags, I would buy some of those too.

Good idea! I have lots of odds and ends that I dont need anymore.

We're a social bunch! We haven't even started the next reefer's party and we're already planning the next, next one!

Good idea, Neal.

If you set it up for the end of April, I'll drive up. I have other business to attend to up there, but getting some fish stuff would be awesome.

Yeah! Dependant on the date, count me in! I have a couple of sets of pc lights to get rid of and lot's of smaller stuff, too. And Lord only knows what I'll purchase while I'm there.......

Yeah, that wouldn't be too bad, I have some stuff that I need to sell off, tanks and canopies and stuff. Hopefully just selling and not buying.

Yeah, this is a good idea. I'm too lazy to post up all the stuff I have lying around that I'll probably never use again, but having a date set that I could just bring everything to in one go would be good!

This sounds like a fantastic idea, I am very new to SW & would love to meet all of you and ask millions of questions :lol:

I am looking forward to this!!!

I think I'd be in. Got all kinds of fishy junk :)

When do you guys plan on having this garage sale?

I'm in for sure. Anyone have any cheap 48" saltwater appropriate fixtures?

Garage sale
 

Count me in as a buyer.

excellent idea. count me in, i have lots to sell and would most likely buy some frags

Looks like we're going to hold off for a while. For those who didn't see, Neal's house caught on fire!!

oh.......hope it wasn't too serious

Could we not perhaps turn this garage sale into something that might help Neal out.

I suppose we could, the thing is we were going to use his shop as the location. Not exactly sure how much room we would need. Anyone have a space they could offer? :smile:

Neal, sorry to hear about your house fire, not too serious I hope. I would be very interested in a garage sale, particularly if we can raise a bit of cash to help Neal out. Count me in as a buyer,

Steve

Count me in as a buyer.

I'm late on catching this thread, but I'd be game for it. Buying and selling stuff. I agree, I have lots of stuff I'm too busy to post, sell and wait for pickup. If its on a weekend or just a day, I could work around that.

Keep me posted.

I still want to do this...I am downsizing, so I wll have lots of stuff.
Might have to be June now though as things are way too crazy right now.
Living in a hotel sucks.
BTW, Although I do truly appreciate the thought about it being a fundraiser, it truly isn't required.
Thankfully I have more than enough insurance.
Neal

when?
 

are we doing this?

please do this I would love to come out and buy some stuff...I'm new to this and need so many things

I am trying to organize this for Sept. I will keep everybody posted

Let me know...
 

Hey,

I don't exactly have a SW tank yet, but I'll show up and poke around. Maybe even have some cash to spend...

Trying to set it up for Sept

I'd come from red deer for it.

Great idea....I have stuff to get rid of...plus add stuff

Sorry to tell you this but you missed it by one week. Maybe there'll be another.
