Going to look at this tank and stand today that I discovered on Craigslist earlier this week. The asking price is $400. From the photos, the tank looks brand new. The person never had water in it. It was used for "critters". She said the "built date" sticker says June 2001. She said the silicone looks good and she was going to fill it for me to see if there are any leaks. The stand is solid wood (NOT PARTICLEBOARD). What do you guys think in regards to age, silicone integrity, etc.

I was thinking of offering $250 - not going higher than $300. Do you think that is reasonable for just the tank and the stand?

Any input would be greatly appreciated

THANKS

BTW, this is my 1000th post!:headbang2:

Pics would help...I'd make it conditional provided 48 -72 hrs after filling no indication of a leak...feel the silicone for gnaw marks....or roughness from chewing....what critters specifically?

Seems fair at your suggested price...provided no leakage, in fact, for the age...maybe 225 tops.....
