2009 3rd Anniversary Sale!

[barrierreefcf]

Our third year in business is coming to an end. We really appreciate all the support our customers have given us, especially with the economy being down. We will be holding our big 3rd Anniversary Sale on October 17th and 18th. We wanted to get these dates out early so you could mark your calendars. We will have doorbuster specials, a free raffle, lots great savings, and hopefully, a couple special guests, amongst other surprises

Each year we have had one highlighted raffle item that was seperate from our free raffle. The first year was an Elos System 60 and the second an ATB Cone Skimmer. We will continue the trend this year and details are just being finalized. Look for this announcment shortly. Once announced you can pre-order raffle tickets for this item through the website. As always, they can be purchased during the sale.

I will post more info over the next few weeks. We're looking forward to another great event and hope that you can all join us!

Excellent! I might just be ready to start stocking my 360g display by then :badgrin:

 

[returnofsid]

WooHoo!!! Maybe we'll be in a better financial position by then!!! We sure made out with all the door prizes and raffles last year!! For those who have never attended this event, you're truly missing out on a wonderful time. Think Walmart, the day after Thanksgiving, but a bunch of reef geeks, free snacks, beverages and great prizes to be won!!!

Oh and then there's the amazing deals to be had as well!!!!

 

[nsamouroux]

The RBTA I picked up... Two years ago I believe? at the anniversary sale started at about 4" diameter, it's now up to 14" diameter (perhaps more, hard to measure because it can't fully extend where it's at ). It's also been eating blonde naso tangs (which I also got from BR's sale :lol. Barrier has the healthiest livestock of any other shop I've been to in Washington.

 

[declivis]

well we decided on a different raffle route this time...seein' that someone...who shall remain nameless *cough*cough*MIKE, i.e SID*cough*cough* had to go and win virtually everything....i'm puttin' my foot down and making an executive decision....one winner per household......we want to spread the love around........J/K. as always enter as many drawings as many times as ya want and if you win 'em all well we won't complain...might wanna watch out in the parkin' lot though, hehehe (those reefer types can get a little 'gressive). hopefully we will have a list of items up shortly.................

Uggghhhh, I sure hope we're able to make it over this time!!! Nothing like driving over the mountains, not being able to sleep at the motel, because you're too excited about the big sale, waking up WAY too early, driving to BR and stumbling around the parking lot bleary eyed.....Ya just can't buy this kind of fun!!! Can't wait!!!!

LOL...you make it sound so great M We love ya for coming all the way out here!

 

[nsamouroux]

On those Koralias, do you stock the Magnum versions (k5, k6, k7, k8), or is it just the k1-k4 pumps? I haven't been in there since I moved to Tacoma

 

[barrierreefcf]

We only stock the Nano-K4 but we can get the other sizes on a few days notice. There just hasn't been enough demand to keep them on the shelves. Especially since we have some of the bigger Tunzes. The larger sizes will not be a part of the 30% off. I'm sure we can match or beat anyone's price on the Magnums though. Just PM me which models you want a quote on and I'll let you know

Do you think you'll have any Brightwell salt as part of the sale?

This would be a great time to get people trying it as it would be on sale.

Just waiting for the wholesaler to get their shipment in. Most likely it will fall under the Brightwell discount.

Added Ricordea to the doorbuster list!

A big thanks to Chris Z. for donating a frag of Appleberry Montipora to the raffle!

Thanks for your support!
