MODreefer June 24, 2021 Share June 24, 2021 Just announced, Bulk Reef Supply and Marine Depot have merged. Today’s vlog, by BRS, on YouTube explains a lot of the changes. Also attempting to dissuade the negative chatter about them price gouging. They look like they want to invest in product development to bring us new features in the equipment we use for our tank systems.

DaJMasta June 24, 2021 Share June 24, 2021 Had no problem with either, and BRS does seem to put some effort into getting better products and educating people about them, so while it's really not bad news, I can't bring myself to think it's good news. No hate to them, I'm still happy enough to shop there, but we're loosing major dry goods suppliers every few years and that reduces competition and makes it even harder for new businesses to break in and compete with the ever more dominant force.

howaboutme June 26, 2021 Share June 26, 2021 Speaking in generalizations a move like this is not likely to be good for the consumer but I'm willing to give benefit of the doubt. Both are excellent retailers and I've had good experiences. I'm guessing that MD already had issues in order for them to even consider being acquired. I just hope we continue to have the diversity in products/brands currently provided by both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MODreefer June 26, 2021 Author Share June 26, 2021 If you watch the BRSTV video, they answer a lot of those questions up front. And they were honest about some questions they didn’t have an answer for at this time. As for prices, they say normal price increases will occur and some items will see larger increases. However, those price increases are expected due to microchip shortages and shipping costs. The YouTube video explains better than I can.

howaboutme July 1, 2021 Share July 1, 2021 MD has a liquidation sale going on now. Just about everything is on a decent discount (other than the usuals that never go on sale). I picked up a bunch of stuff. Worth scrolling through! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynn.reef.nerd July 1, 2021 Share July 1, 2021 Not sure if you can combine sale + code but here is a code that was sent to me a week ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
