I bought this same fixture (48" AL) about a year ago, It was priced just under $500 as I remember at BigAl in Edmonton, that included the bulbs (two actinic, 2 10k and 8 blue LED moons)...I did end up buyin mine used here on canreef for the sum of about $300 if memory serves me right. I thought it was a great fixture for the "new to salt me", I had no issues with the softy's etc. but was also bitten by the upgade bug shortly after and am now running all highend LED systems on three SW set-ups...Thus said, if you're anything like me, I think it's better to buy the fixture you really want off the get go or look for someone who wants to upgrade and save yourself a bunch of $$ buying used.
