Post CR Garage Sale CONTEST!!!!

Captive Reefs
Garage Sale - Contest
Do you....
Have good items that you aren't using?
Have a stuffed garage or basement?
Prefer to find good homes for items rather than put them in a landfill?
Need extra cash...especially to spend on your reef?
Want to save some money on some used stuff that is in good condition?
Want to win a cool prize?



If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above, then this contest is for you!

As a "public service" to our members, I thought it would be a cool idea to make a contest out of selling stuff! So here are the rules....
Information
  • From now until Sunday October 10 at midnight (EST), for each item placed for sale or purchased in the CR non-reef marketplace, you will receive one entry into the CR Garage Sale contest.
  • Buyers must post in this thread indicating which item(s) they purchased.
  • An item does not have to be sold, only placed for sale, in order to receive an entry into the contest.
  • Items placed in the CR Marketplace must truly be for sale at a fair market price...fake entries will result in contest disqualification.
  • Items that you would expect to buy or sell as part of a lot/box, e.g. a box of nails will only count as one item...you don't get 500 contest entries for a box of nails. Sorry.


Sellers will be entered into a random drawing (one entry for each item listed) for the following:

Hanna Phosphate meter donated by Premium Aquatics!



Buyers will be entered into a random drawing (one entry for each item purchased) for the following:
$50 gift certificate to Oceans and Seas!


[note]If you are asking why is CR allowing non-reef items, please see this post/thread.[/note]

Just to clarify...all the items for sale will go in our [hl]CR Classifieds or Marketplace[/hl].

Also items that you would expect to buy or sell as part of a lot, e.g. a box of nails will only count as one item...you don't get 500 contest entries for a box of nails. Sorry.

Do we need to post that we are selling something or will you guys just look through it?

Either way, I tossed my custom gaming computer up there.

Goodluck everybody....

yeah, they are a blast!!! I have a beat up set, but when I saw these for $15 at an estate sale, I jumped all over them. I know that they are worth wayyyyy more than that. I wish ebay still allowed them, I think I would have sold them for even more than I did on CL.
