I believe Champion Lighting is the vendor that does the Box O Crap.
Troylee
all about the diy!!!!!
I was gonna ask the team and rev what he thought about that... I wanted to do a crazy frag pack for x amount of dollars and just say if your not happy I will gladly refund your money... Wanted to do a crazy mystery box myself...

I haven't ever bought it but from my understanding that you can get things that range anywhere from and old batch of magazines, usually not reef related to new MH bulbs, filters, etc. I think I remember a few years ago someone got a bunch of old Maxim mag's and a few new MH bulbs in one box. It sounds like a pretty cool sale just to see what you get.
Keep us posted Electrobes.

Man I am getting old, I just assumed people knew what I was talking about! :xd: When I used to peruse RC, it used to be a fun thread to post on, as everyone would take a picture of their crap and compare. I guess it never occurred to me just how old that thread was when it started. Anyways the Box o Crap is from Champion Lighting: BOX O' CRAP :: CLEARANCE :: Champion Lighting & Supply
I got two just to see. Back in the day they would once in a blue moon stick some really high end stuff in there. I usually made out when I got a box, but also got Maxim and Stuff magazines. :neutral: The good stuff were refractometers, MH bulbs, chemipure, etc. Not sure what is commonly found these days. I guess we'll see in two days! :wink:

I got one a while back. If I remember right it came with a wisper filter a couple of heaters, a couple cans of dry fish food and a can of brine shrimp eggs. It was a fun suprise just seening what I got. Oh yeah I just remembered that best part of it was a like a 4" bulkhead. I have no idea who would have ever used something that size. I used it a a pen holder on my desk.
Good luck on your box-o-crap Electrobes! Let us know what you get.
Troy - if you ever do one make sure you let me know :wink:

Funny Story...
Right before I read or even seen this thread I was sitting at my tank trying to catch a fish with my fish trap. While I was sitting there I was thinking about how valuable that fish trap had been to me over the last couple of years and also thinking that getting in the that Box O Crap sale was awesome! LOL! I lie not. I got it in this same sale a couple years ago and was actually thinking about that sale! HAHA! Sooooooooo I just ordered two. IT WAS A SIGN!!!
Oh caught the fish to while I was sitting at the computer ordering the Box O Crap. Saw him swim in so I went an yanked the line and closed him in! LOL!

I remember that. Are they still doing cool things like that? I noticed that their mystery boxes still haven't sold out yet... back then it was amazing if the sale remained past a day! Guess the economy is the limiting factor.
One more day till I find out the goodies! I needed something else to blog about dang it... that and I am procrastinating wiring the osmolator pump to my ATO. :wink:
