Hey,

Does any one buy gear on eBay? I was clicking around there this morning and saw some stuff I use pretty cheap. Most of what you find is crap, but I think if you look around you can find some good deals. Any one ever had any experience buying nutrients there? Paying retail at my local store has been feeling kind of expensive lately and I was just looking to hear some of your stories.

Thanks

Pretty much all of my equipment was bought through ebay. All the expensive equipment like the inline fans, ballasts, light controllers, reflectors, pumps, ph ec meters, chillers etc are all cheaper than what you would pay in a store.... I even bought 4 10'' mountain air carbon filters through ebay. All new of course.

I had my packages shipped to a local ups location where I picked it up.

I buy a bunch of stuff on eBay. I found all the earth juice I needed for half the price my local store sells it for.

Use the address of any nearby ups warehouse. They will hold it for 7 days. They don't need to know where you live, they just need to verify the name you use.
