Hey, I am wondering if anyone here has ordered anything from petco in the past and if so what your experience was like.
I am looking at getting some eco-complete substrate for my freshwater tank and the price is $18 compared to $40 at my LFS so it's a no brainer if Petco is legit.
Cheers!

Nothin wrong with it, as far as I'm aware petco is US unless they moved one up here recently, so there may be some duties and taxes to pay if there is any real weight to the package. Other then that if you still find its cheaper why not. Mind you its always best to support your lfs when possible ;)

I was looking at buying a $20 clamp light fixture from the US that cost over $40 up here. After all the S&H and duties and taxes the final cost was going to be $60US. So even at PAR it wasn't worth it. Some items at BRS are definitely worth it because of the quality or price, but you have to shop carefully.
