I was shopping for a skimmer before Christmas. You know that the Vertex Alpha Line was designed by Royal Exclusiv (company that makes Bubble Kings) and come with Red Dragon pumps. During my research I found out that Vertex and RE and had a falling out. Vertex AlphaCones will no longer have the RE Red Dragon pumps and probably some other changes as well.
Since then Vertex has decided to source there own pumps and have reportedly run into production problems.
Personally I would cancel my order as your new Vertex AlphaCone will be a whole "new animal." Who knows about the quality.
I got lucky and was able to find a used AlphaCone with the Red Dragon pump.
