.: AquaCentral.ca :. - Fresh concept!

[Aquattro]

Here's my thoughts

Canreef has an extensive used/for sale section, no cats allowed.

My usedyourcity.com has an extensive Fish section, never seen a cat in there.

This new site, first ad I see is a Mag 3 pump, apparently used, for $150 bucks. That's almost 3x the new price. I voted "not another one" simply because I had to go look to review the link.
I won't go back....

We appreciate the feed back and your opinions.

"This new site, first ad I see is a Mag 3 pump, apparently used, for $150 bucks. That's almost 3x the new price. I voted "not another one" simply because I had to go look to review the link.

Although we can moderate the content that people put on the site, we cannot tell them a price to put it at. That would be like me saying oh, someone posted 1 ecotech radion on kijiji for $1500 so therefore I am never going back to the site because of this. I am not arguing your statement, simply putting it into better context.

Again, thank you for your input as we do appreciate everyone's idea's and thoughts.

CANREEF BUY/SELL FTW

[AquaCentral]

We did indeed. No shame in that

In my opinion it never hurts to have more sites to sell things on. Equipment comes and goes so fast from our tanks that the faster I can sell it the better.

I see no problem with the advertising, after all the more people who use it the better.

True, but the advertising for business' here is paid for.

Exactly. Support CanReef!

The post is allowed as a reference to a site, as the title of the forum suggests. The poster is not offering any competing product nor selling anything, simply posting a link with a poll that so far suggests that not many people are interested.
I don't see this as a problem at this time, but we'll watch and make sure nobody breaks any rules.

It might be good for those people who want to regularly sell frags but don't sell enough to warrant a sponsership on canreef. I also didn't like all the ad space everywhere trying to sell me items not even related to fish.

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

Went there. All the prices are at least full retail from what I can see. Every ad I opened was from Ontario, so yes, Central Canada.

I have a tough enough time keeping up with checking my Canreef, BCAquaria, Hotmail & Craigslist sites. Didn't see anything at this point to make me add another to the list.

Sorry, but with shipping rates in Canada, a Canada-wide fish buy/sell site doesn't work financially for me, especially if they're asking full retail on everything. High prices + shipping = I'm going to drive to J&L or one of the other LFS and buy it for much, much cheaper.

If it takes off in the West, and there are lots of good deals offered in the Greater Vancouver area, then I would end up using it. Otherwise the cost of shipping is prohibitive.
