    Ok so tbaquatics has an ad on an mp10 [STRIKE]saying[/STRIKE] never mind ill take a pic but is this a scam? i called and its 175 shipped to my door. Every other web site and i mean all of them the price is between $194 and 195, no other prices anywhere. The guy said he'll just send me an invoice on paypal if i want it and send him my paypal. Should i do it? And then my other concern is that on ebay, their price is 195 + free shipping, no deal like this or anything. And why do i have to call just for the price? Scam or no scam? Ive never heard anything of these guys so i wouldnt know, thats why im asking. If its no scam, MP10 purchased! Ecotech Marine Vortech MP10 Pump - $194.99 : TB Aquatics - Top Quality Aquarium Products, Aquarium & Drinking Water Filtration, Amazing Service! The guys personally called me back, but i didnt answer cause i wasnt at my phone at the time, but it was some rep. He left me a detailed voicemail.

    tbaquatics is a reputable dealer and a sponsor of this site, certainly not a scam.

    I would say no scam, just a great price. I believe they are a 3reef sponsor as well.

    Thats the exact answer i was looking for. Wether its a reputable dealer, if its a sponser, and your opinion. Thanks a lot, k+ for the response, and the quick one at that!

    Not at all intended, sorry if i came across as that. It just seemed a little sketchy, like they were trying to get us away from using the CC and use paypal, hence you have to invoice the payment, no CC. But not the case! And guess who has an mp10?? me! woohoo! Thanks TB!
