If you had to assign a value

So since I’m moving tanks regardless is the extra 2’ worth the added cost? Is the juice worth the squeeze?

Only you can answer that. I personally would strongly consider it if something like that came along and I was already considering an upgrade. Would definitely not pay what he's asking if I were only window shopping.

I wasn’t looking to upgrade. Just got ran across the option. I was already starting to get things ready to move my 280

Reasons I would do it. 8’ vs 6’ for the tank presence in the room. More swimming space to swim and grow for existing fish. And a smaller bio load on a larger system

He says anything less than $3,500 he’s moving it with him. Whether that holds true a few months from now is to be determined. However I’m not waiting that long. In the next 2-3 weeks I’m moving my 280 if I pass on his. I do agree everyone would like to think when they’re selling it’s worth gold and if they were to buy the same item it’s worthless. So while I think it’s somewhat of a deal. Better than buying new. The location sweetens the deal. I don’t think it’s the deal of a lifetime

Yeah, If you like this person you might do them a favor and spare the tank the damage risk in his long move. Since you already have a tank, it's kind of a complicated situation. I know I would not buy 6 or 8 foot glass because I can't move either myself anymore, but that's not your problem.

Hell be moving 14 hours away. He’d need a whole U-Haul dedicated to just this he said. If I didn’t have the 280 it would probably be a no brainer. While I don’t need to sell it if I did make the upgrade I would like too. I don’t need a second large tank just sitting around
