been scammers on ebay selling hydro not sending the goods because they know you arnt going to get the PO involved.. this place LOOKs legit but have no personal experience. Prefure to do my shopping in person.

 

 

 

some items are cheep others not so cheep, some of those shades arnt worth alot at all i had one of the fold out shoe boxes when i first started didnt get the coverage of a gull wing or standard shade.

 

my local grow shop sells growlush but isnt a huge seller probally could just be phillips globes in differnt packaging but look into that because growlush claim 33% better light and 33% power saving but havnt seen a 1/3 bigger/ better grow using them.

 

NEW 400wt ballast, shade and globe (phillips growlush or cheeper globe) for $200 to $230 if you want a better shade.

 

$300 for new 600wt awill be fully guaranteed and able to return if there is a problem .

 

If second hand is ok 600wt ballast $100 shade $15 new 600wt globe $100. remember not much goes wrong with the ballast or shade so could by second hand if it doesnt look 10yo neverknow what you may find at cash converters ive found good but cheep shades and one good ballast but you do have to hunt..

Funny you say that, I've been waiting quite a while for a delivery.

Hydromaster is a good shop - he knows his stuff and has a vast inventory.

I agree that there a lot of good buys to be had but invest in a sniper tool, it's worth it's wait in gold.

Even if the seller gets a warning or a ban from a dodgy sale you still won't get your stuff - suspicous or not.

hey there

 

the only 2 i use on the bay are hydromaster and hydrolite

 

both very good to deal with have got alot of stuff off hydromaster and even once they stuffed up and sent me a $20 voucher for the trouble now thats service

 

also you have the piece of mind that hydromaster actually has shops you can go into

hydroponic warehouse on the gold coast sell 600watt light kits including the bulb and a choice of nova or adjusta wing shade for $230.

btw, on the subject of buying on ebay, I don't like it. these sellers in effect have a database of people who buy gear for growing pot. who has access to this information? who will have access to it in the future?

 

I'm paranoid I know.

[Shithappens]

Didnt they sieze records in SA a while back and there stores have to report large purchases??

 

just someything i heard and wouldnt like record trails in my state to be seized if my name on them

[wildflower]

nah your right pipeman,

i dont understand why people dont just get off their lazy arses and go into a shop?

Online shopping is way overrated. Its ok for a lot of things, but for important and expensive stuff its best to check it out in person hand over the cash, take it home, plug it in, done.

i go to Nutriflo, they do credit card over the phone or by their secure website.

i find this a better option than an ebay seller for numerous reasons.

i know them so well now i just ring & get them to put on my CC, they always deliver within 2 days & i never have CC issues.

i always speak to the guy who sends the stuff & am on 1st name basis.

they're in Gosford,Sydney, they send stuff anywhere in Oz.

i get everything from lights,perlite to propogation blocks off them.

 

i'm stunned at how quick the parcels arrive (sometimes in a day) & how cheap the postage is, even the heavest/biggest items cost only a few bucks postage.

i find i get my stuff cheaper than most hydro stores even w' postage included.

 

yeah,i'm stoked i found Nutriflo, i know i sound like i work for them but i don't, i'm just stoked i found somewhere that delivers to my door cheaply/quickly that has a massive range of products.

if i could find anything negative to say about them i would just to give a less biased appearing opinion but i just haven;t had an issue yet.

I just got lights+ballast+shade kit from Aussieponics on ebay. Had a couple of unforseen financial dents, but the bloke was more than happy to wait, no rush implied. I got the item within 24 hours of the email confirmation that the payment had been received.

 

Pretty cheap too. Nutriflow look reasonable but their site isnt the greatest, and hasnt been updated for awhile..

 

My 2 cents
