Opinions on used Red Sea Reefer 350, would you buy? (Pics)

Hows it going everyone? I’m seriously considering upgrading to this Red Sea 350 but there are a couple air bubbles in the silicone. The seller said Red Sea sent him a new tank and will include it in the sale. The air bubbles do make me nervous and leaning towards making an offer on just the new tank that was sent as I don't need both. He said there was no water in the bubbles and they havent grown since he has been running the tank. Would you buy and use this tank with the air bubbles? I would appreciate your opinions, thanks!!

I wouldn’t buy any Red Sea tanks. They’re having a lot of issues. The air bubbles is a no go. The new red seas are having issues with the overflow boxes leaking. I would stay away.

Agreed with above. I've seen a few people on this site have the 'sagging' tank issue and then post them for sale. Pretty sure the warranty is gone once you buy used, so you'll be out of luck if you have any problems.
