Worth the Price?
I have someone willing to sell me a USED Red Dragon 12M3 pump and around 3100GPH. Its about 3 years old and the seller wants $600 do you think its worth it?

Offer $475. I believe these pumps have a lifetime warentee so i think your covered. It is a crazy nice pump
edit. I just checked and a brand new one retails for $900 so $450-$500 is reasonable

^ Agreed. 600$ is a bit high.
