SRC Member Senses Posted October 23, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 23, 2020 Hi all, I have a set of Red Sea Reefer Nano that I have just purchased from another reefer just about 2 weeks ago to giveaway for free. Condition of display tank is ok with some scratches. Cabinet is around 5/10. I have changed the rusty hinges and cleaned the whole tank and cabinet up. Might need some re-lamination at the base as it seems to have been soaked by water before. I have attached pictures of the tank within for your viewing. I did not start anything with the tank, only done the cleaning up and change some hinges. Thereafter it has been left lying around. Reason for letting go is I decided to get a slightly bigger new tank instead. Just to share with all new reefers that if you are purchasing a 2nd hand tank, do go over and take a look instead of just believing the stated condition as per mentioned by seller. This is a lesson that I learnt. My loss is your gain. Interested pls pm me. First come first serve to whoever can collect the earliest thanks! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member ReefAddict Posted October 23, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 23, 2020 Can you share who you bought the tank from? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Slimymadness Posted October 23, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 23, 2020 Quite a dishonest seller if all these potentially catastrophic damages are not shared with you fully. To wilfully conceal these defects is truly low. The cabinet will give way and it is very dangerous. You are entitled to a full refund imo. If you are willing, I believe this community is going to stand behind you. I have bought defective 2nd hand items and even tank that leaked upon fill up before and the sellers were very steady to refund with no questions asked. I believe my experiences are the norm rather than the exception, cos the community is tight knit like that. Share the seller, lets see how we can proceed. 7 Quote I believe there is something out there watching us.

SRC Member Ooozone Posted October 24, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 24, 2020 Sorrie to hear your unpleasant buying experience but do exercise care in future to check any 2nd hand used item before official deal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member CalebNg Posted October 25, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 25, 2020 Appalling ! If that seller had advertised this tank as "in good condition" or anything to such effect, I think any reasonable person would be as disappointed as you are ! Plainly dishonest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Evolutionz Posted October 27, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 27, 2020 Whoever took this tank, suggest to throw away the cabinet and remake a new one. That badly damanged cabinet WILL give way, just a matter of when. Sorry to hear that TS encountered a dishonest seller. 1 Quote EvolutionZ's Floating Reef: (Decommed) EvolutionZ's 4ft shallow Mixed Reef Build : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cabinet is made of mdf board which will give way sooner or later if soak up sufficient water. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Zac Posted October 31, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2020 It’s an unfortunate event. I PMed him advising him to reconsider his action. We wouldn’t want to discourage a new Reefer from starting the reefing journey. But...... no reply at all. Can moderator do something?Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app 2 Quote Zac's Red Sea Reefer 170 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member winston.jazzi Posted October 31, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2020 It's unfortunate that it happened to me. This fellow had MIA since Mar 2019 after cheated me on x2 hailea chillers. Telling me next month (Apr 2019) will pay up. Met him in FB and he's known as Zac. I have warned him a few days ago via FB chat that I'll lodged a police report and file for compensation since I have all the evidence. He responded within 5 mins and text me next month shall payup, as expected MIA again. Considering current economic situation, I'll give him till end of 1st week of Nov before I take on legal proceedings with him.

SRC Member Kwancy Posted October 31, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2020 Just make a police report. Even if it's $50, police will investigate and take action. This is cheating, they will find out his identity easily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member jd_n Posted October 31, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2020 Believe this is his profile on carousel.

SRC Member Slimymadness Posted October 31, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2020 Scammer should be pretty active with frequent log on here.. maybe to scour for his next victim. I am sure he is reading this thread. If more victims come forward and make a police report then he is GG. Just keep this thread alive so more people will be aware of this low life. 1 Quote I believe there is something out there watching us.

kara94 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I have unpleasant experience with this person known as Zac Low as well. He had contacted me via Carousell and WhatsApp for my tank. He pretended himself to be an intern and trying to low-ball the tank. Later, I found that his identity in LinkedIn as a strategic development manager in a FnB company. From his Carousell profile, I have noted that he has been keep selling alot of similar tanks and equipments in the past. Thus, I suspected that he is a flipper instead of a genuine hobbyist. I have decided to call off the deal. (I have been labelled as scammer by him because I decided to call off the deal. LOL!) I am fortunate enough that I am skeptical and not to proceed the deal with him, else might end up like what the remaining bros have gone through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
