Buying a big tank???

[Mindcrime121]

Ok, the town I live in has no pet stores, and the bigger town I travel to for my needs has very little selection compared to where I used to live, so I'm wondering about buying a 100g or 125g tank and stand combo on line. Are there venders who sell them to people and deliver to the home, or do I have to have it delivered to the nearest store and then pick it up, and if the latter, do I have to order it through the store so they can tack on their own profit margin for doing nothing and call it "handling", or what?

I need some "how to" advice here on getting a tank and stand combo without getting burned. Links would be helpful too.

If your not against buying used craigslist is full of them

Petsmart has 25% all tanks, they deliver, craiglist has great deals if you can pick up, take a look on ebay also(pay with paypal)

Glasscages.com and other tank builders deliver, but delivery ain't cheap. The pet stores you visit can have the tank you want delivered with their next shipment; this may be a cheaper option for you.
