I hope the link works, I am wondering if it is worth it. I am afraid that when i bid on it because it is low, they will hit me with huuuge shipping costs.

Worth it?

the description says "Pick-up only, NO delivery"... so, I guess that isn't a good deal, with all the driving time and gas

oh, but it says about shipping costs being 15% less if you use paypal. hehe i guess i didn't see the pick up only part. Damn

Email the seller and ask before you make a huge mistake.

Here's my big question. Why is this in the betta section?

Sounds like they have a tank with fish that they don't want anymore for whatever reason.....but making it sound like it's to your advantage--heck, we'll even throw in the fish! I'd wonder what the fish were, why they're getting rid of it and the hard questions like that. It does say pick up only. I've seen similar on ebay where they're moving and can't take it with them or whatever. Up to you and if you can or want to drive there to get it. I don't think you'd want all that shipped out to you. For all those costs, you could go get a new tank and fill it full of the fish you choose. Up to you though................

Hmm... I have failed to see the place where it says "Pick up Only". I see it says "Worldwide". And if it comes with everything and ships I would think that is a good deal. I mean, if you bought a whole new tank with all knew stuff it would be around $300-$350 wouldn't it? I don't think shipping could be possably that high could it?

Look down a bit in duller writing right under where they say they'll throw the fish in on the deal. It's there. Shipping would be prohibitive for that size....probably over a hundred to ship and then you're taking a chance of the glass breaking. Anyways, they say pick up only so read it over again.
