Heaters are not expensive, I got a 300 Watt from 28 euro and it is still going strong 1.5 years later. You can get a 200 Watt for about 25 euro.

Why risk buying from China unless you are getting them for under 10 euro. What size heater are you looking for?

i bought two 300w heaters ( one as spare and less carriage) off a place in china through ebay. the first one is still working away for nearly two years and i remember at the time they were a lot cheaper than the local shop. Plus the local shop only did up to 200watt

i ordered an in-line heater off a shop on eBay paid a good bit for it as well (as far as in-line heaters go) it failed on me while i was away over the Christmas and i lost a good lot of fish, seller has not responded to my emails going on over a week now
