Good and bad experiences buying stuff from Reefcentral

[pterfloth]

I have purchased a lot of used equipment off of ReefCentral with good results over the years. I get it all shipped to The Letter Carrier in Point Roberts. I have never been charged duty or tax and I declare it all. Don't think of bringing corals across the line because the penalties are very, very high.

Check sellers on the bad actors list and look up previous posts and sales for an idea of their history. Use PayPal and never send money as a "gift". Register a US address in PayPal a one of your shipping locations and you'll have no problem.

Thanks guys, I think I will follow your advice. Pay by Paypal but not "gift", register US address with Paypal, not dealing with someone who has less than 100 posts and shipping by Can Post.
