I am very pleased with it, and its not hard to make your order over a 100 bux for free shipping.

You need $200 for free shipping Lando.

My bad, still not hard to do.

I wish I could keep it under $200 when I order from there!

Didn't know they had a refractometer though, and a pretty good price. LFS here in Edmonton sells for $100.

i just got one off ebay, brand new for 24.95 USD.
However, i think i lucked out cuz the next closet one is 44.95 plus shipping ( that is for buy it now)

not really worth it unless a package deal for the shipping if it was a group buy

That is a LOT of refractometers! Probably easiest to buy from JL, their shipping rates are really cheap.

[howdy20012002]

just giving people some options
I only bought one becuz it was so cheap.
I think JL is a great store. Their prices are hard to beat. The only bad thing about them is that there isn't one in edmonton.
They are probably definitely the way to go with a group order for people
3 people get one and bam..free shipping.

Edmonton could definately use one, I have thought about asking if they would be interested in a Franchise venture, but I would want others to start up with, share the risk. I don't think the pricing could be quite as good either, because of the extra shipping costs, but would be a heck of a lot better than any other store in Edmonton.

I have been to JL, it is a surprisingly small store, the tanks looked very well maintained, and their display tank with a tunze wavebox is amazing to watch the water flow, mimics tides very well.

Yeah I was kinda shocked when I went there also I was picturing something huge like Home Depot. I was also shocked going to King Ed's I didn't know you could pile so much into such a little place.
