WANTED: RO filter

Does anyone have a reverse osmosis filter they would be willing to part with?? I can pay cash or work out a barter. Just drop me a line and let me know!

Check on Ebay.. There is a company called filterdirect you can probably search for the user id.. Very sweet deals.. I picked up my Ro/Di setup complete with everything for 100.00 + 25.00 s/h for a total of 125.00 for an 85gpd 5 or 6 stage I cant remember and too drunk right now to even try.. I can say that it is nice to have not only for the fish but for drinking.. at least the [acronym:7b1269842a="Reverse osmosis"]ro[/acronym:7b1269842a] is good for drinking and the [acronym:7b1269842a="Reverse osmosis"]ro[/acronym:7b1269842a]/[acronym:7b1269842a="Deionization"]di[/acronym:7b1269842a] is a lil blahhh [acronym:7b1269842a="By the way"]btw[/acronym:7b1269842a] it has 2 outputs 1 faucet for [acronym:7b1269842a="Reverse osmosis"]ro[/acronym:7b1269842a] and a tube for [acronym:7b1269842a="Reverse osmosis"]ro[/acronym:7b1269842a] + Di

Dependign on the [acronym:05a6ccfc6c="Gallons per hour"]GPH[/acronym:05a6ccfc6c] you get you can fill a nice size trashcan in as little as 8 hours.

Gosh I love my 100GPD unit.

An [acronym:89b6981486="Reverse osmosis"]RO[/acronym:89b6981486] unit that'll get you drunk!?! OOOHHHH...I gotta have one of these!!

Seriously though, I have looked everywhere. I have several wholesale accounts with major vendors and no one beats the prices on these filterdirect units. I just ordered a 100 gpd last night. They have good prices on replacement filters and TDS meters as well. I think that would be your best source. If you buy a used one, you may find that it needs all the filters and membrane replaced. You might end up with more invested in it than you would a new one.

I wish an Ro would get me drunk... Was having a bit of a party here that night and figured I jump on the ole forum and see if I could help anyone out without giving them too terrible of information... Btw I looked into other Ro systems and man this was the cheapest one I found and Man I sure do like it.. I was able to justify it with the Wife as it came with a faucet attachment and she only drinks bottled water... [acronym:f948e7ff8b="Laughing out loud"]LOL[/acronym:f948e7ff8b] not anymore.. She says the water tastes much better then the $1.00 per 20oz bottle she buys..
