I solemnly swear I will never ever order any aquarium items worth more then $5 off Ebay again.
The story:
Order knock off canister filter... Seller notifies me its out of stock.. looks like next week (or more).. offers refund.
Respond asking for refund. So far so good.
Find another filter from more reliable source and order.
Get notification first order has shipped.
I guess we will see if it really has shipped and then consider return options but the blankty blank has my money and it looks like I have two filters for the time being.
Thanks for your time.. I feel better ... or not... I would if I had my money back.
