ok--not that his prices aren't good or anything-but I thought that was a requirement for being a sponsor-a 10% discount on everything--again-I don't want this to be placed in the RnC dept-b/c his prices are GREAT-but I thought that's what the policy was-?

yeah thats why he doesnt offer it but if you look in his sponcer page it says that ...not to mention he os one of the only sponcers that does offer a discount on these products .....it just wouldnt do him any justice at the price he sells things for

Special consideration was made for Aquabuys (just as other stores have received special consideration, depending on the circumstances). Sammy has supported the ARC for years, and his profit is too low to offer an additional 10% off. Unlike other sponsor stores that grudgingly "support" the ARC by giving a discount most of the time, Sammy has always gone out of his way to treat the members well. After about 3-4 years of this; Sammy agreed to give the discount on the two items that can't be found at discount other places (salt, tanks, and stands), and the Board voted that AquaBuys be allowed as a sponsor.

Yes, it's a special circumstance. In my opinion, the members, the club, and Aquabuys all benefited.

Eric,
Thanks for your inquiry. We do offer 10% off on Aquariums, Stands, Canopies and Salt Mix to reef club members. We do not have an ARC discount code for the website (yet). Best bet is to call in your order or just drop by our shop in Lawrencevile. Please contact us if you have any other questions.

PS: Victor and Chris - thank you for answering questions. ;)
