Default ReefBreeders: Don't waste your time

I ordered LED lights from these guys 2 weeks ago and just last night I get an email stating I need to pay an additional $150 for shipping. No where on their website do they state there will be additional shipping cost if outside the USA. It does say, however, the price of the units with the word "shipped" right beside it. I guess this company assumes only Americans would have the technology to go online and look up their website. This kind of thing annoys me. I've been sitting here waiting for my lights to arrive as they promise 1-3 weeks shipping and then after 2 weeks I get an email. What kind of crap service is that? I've asked for a refund and will look for lights elsewhere I guess. So like I said, Reefbreeders: Don't waste your time.

I guess you missed this

$79 Shipped*

*In the USA. Contact us for international shipping.

i just got the Fuge light from them and found them great to deal with. I also assumed that the "shipped" was in the US only because that is the usual policy through out US retailers.
Sorry to hear about your experience

And why not? I notified you of the shipping charge when your order was ready to ship, and we even offered to pay the first $50 (the actual cost was $200, we quoted you $150 for 2 very large fixtures). I am not sure what else you want from us, you were supposed to contact us for a quote prior to ordering, and that would have avoided this situation. We ship to several Canadian, and other international customers on a weekly basis. If you are not sure about international shipping, give us a shout, and we can tell you everything you need to know before you place your order.

PS, I thought that the internet didn't exist outside of America, sorry about that!


Thanks,
