Alita 'fish room' air pump - large, indutrial

[Harry Marsh]

Model # 40L
See picture.

This is a large fish room air pump.
As in, would run most (if not all) of the airstones in your room

How many airstones it can run depends on the depth of said tanks, but somewhere around 40 +/- before it would lose power
And, it's surprisingly quiet

I never got it plumbed, but I tested it and works well.
Previous owner ran it 6 months. These are fully rebuildable, but this one does not need a rebuild

$110 shipped (this thing is somewhere around 12 pounds)

Just a heads up. I bought and paid for this pump on the 16th. Paid extra to have it shipped two day priority. Pump has not been shipped and seller has only replied to one e-mail.

I was giving the seller the benefit that he did not give me, before posting this post and filing a paypal claim against me.
But, if people are going to comment...I suppose I should waste 10 more minutes typing up a response. Yay.

Zachary Holtmeyer has not e-mailed me in 5 days and has not asked for a tracking number or any information in a week (when I told him it would be shipped the next day)

I e-mailed him once on July 16th:

This should be neat for you.

I had it plumbed up and used it once just to test it

And then, fell out of favor with the hobby and gave up.
Do you need any other accessories? I might have some stuff lying around that I could pack the box with
I still have 6 tanks setup - empty


A third time, some hours later...:

Will send tracking number tomorrow

Was going to send friday, but felt bad about my packing.

I got a bigger box with some bubble wrap: will be good now


And a fifth time, 17 minutes after he posted on Simply Discus, without e-mailing or private messaging.
I e-mailed him his USPS tracking number, which says the package will be delivered on Monday. The receipt shows that this was shipped on the 22nd at 12:40pm


I very rarely call someone a liar....but I'll let you decide.
Maybe I should have sent him the tracking number previously, but I'm a rather busy person and he was not asking me for it: so I didn't think there was a problem. I was simply trying to forward someone on Simply Discus a 'good' deal rather than Ebaying the pump. Now, I've spent an hour on this drama (after digging up the receipt, sending him a pm/e-mail/picture of receipt, etc)
This package cost me $31.xx to ship: due to me being in North Carolina and him being on the West Coast. Maybe we had a disconnect about '2day shipping' or me paying shipping costs (I don't think i told him I would ship 2 day shipping)
But, it would have probably cost me $60 to ship 14 lbs from North Carolina to Washington in 2 days. Maybe more. That does not change the fact that I am rather certain that I e-mailed him more than once and that he hasn't had contact with me in quite a while


I understand that he may be eager to get the piece, but I assert that he should have e-mailed me before posting this and before filing a PayPal claim.
To date, I have not received a response.

Ok guys, closing this thread. PMs or email should work from here.
