    At that price I don't think you'll be selling it!

    As an example I sold a Rio180 with own stand plus all stuff needed but no livestock (at least no intended livestock :P) for 200.

    Id be thinking 150 or so

    Thanks for that fungun appreciated. I was hoping for closer to 200 as the filter and new ballast unit were dear enuf, as was the substrate. all extra to the tank as I bought it. Might drop asking and see what happens

    Its only worth what some one is willing to pay for it. If you got €150 I'd be impressed

    Thanks, I realise that...

    But it doesn't mean I can ask for what I think it's worth and meet somewhere between... Ya gotta start somewhere and if I put up for 150 I wouldn't get 150, I've sold a bought a few things on adverts to know that

    Might be better off putting up an asking price of 180/190? Or if ya want to still look for the 200, use the old sales technique of "€199", very slight redction, but looks cheaper (petrol stations have been using that one for year!)

    Ya might make more if ya decided to sell some of the stuff seperately too
