ASaleem91 May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 Hey, I just got my skimmer in and there seems to be a small half inch crack by the outlet. Would you guys recommend gluing it or should I leave it alone? If I should glue it, what glue do you recommend? Should I glue the inside and the out side?
ASaleem91 May 17, 2007 Author May 17, 2007 The Skimmer isnt new. I got it used off a member on RC. Should I return it or just glue it?

jnguyen4007 May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 You bought it brand new and it arrived with a defect, you should send it back for a replacement. James
ASaleem91 May 17, 2007 Author May 17, 2007 The skimmer is not new. Its used. I also forgot to say what skimmer it is. Its a Euro Reef CS8-2
dbartco May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 I have a 8-3 that did the same, and reglued. If in sump, not a big deal anyway...
dbartco May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 Ask for a partial refund if it wasn't disclosed. Man, I wish we had a member feedback forum if it wasn't!! JUST KIDDING!!!
dandy7200 May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 Man, I wish we had a member feedback forum if it wasn't!! JUST KIDDING!!! Actually this thread is a prime example of what community dispute resolution can achieve. Does it matter he bought this on RC? Not really, he's a paid member looking for a solution to a sale that didn't go exactly as planned. I KNOW YOU WERE BEING A SMART ARSE THOUGH!!!!
traveller7 May 17, 2007 May 17, 2007 Negative Feedback quick!! Not like we have any facts, who cares, a good seller will bend over backwards to protect their reputation even if they are not at fault. Slam that seller regardless and get more out of them! Heck point us all to the thread so we can pile on! Of course a bad one will not care, will just create a new account, etc., etc.,....Uh, who was this feedback protecting again? Seriously now, before touching the skimmer, I would review the transaction details, contact the seller if applicable, etc. A transaction goes two ways, the buyer portion includes more then just sending the money.
ASaleem91 May 17, 2007 Author May 17, 2007 The seller packaged the skimmer very well and he has sold many things without the buyers having any problems. I believe that the skimmer was cracked during shipping but he is trying to work with me, trying to figure things out, money wise.

dbartco May 18, 2007 May 18, 2007 I KNOW YOU WERE BEING A SMART ARSE THOUGH!!!! Just so you know I am not too much of one, I have been PMing asaleem offering 3 and 16 to use to fix. I'm not that horrible. Hopefully he can find nearer to home.

I sent him PM too and offered to drop it off in Centerville on my way out there tomarrow. We know you are evil Doug, don't try and hide it.
jason the filter freak May 18, 2007 May 18, 2007 Shipping insurance is cheap as all get out... did you get any?
fab May 18, 2007 May 18, 2007 If the skimmer was damaged in shipment, contact the shipper to file a damage claim. If they process it as a damage claim, you will not have to pay shipping to return the item and again to receive the replacement. fab Also, check my PM to you.
