This is an all or nothing deal. We have 4 IBC's in varying condition here at the moment that we need to chift. There are pics below...

Like I say, varying condition, a couple of them just need bending their cages out and they will be great while a couple are a bit rusty on the frames..

Still, a bargain, all 4 of them for a carton of little creatures beer.. You have to take them all though..

But wait, there's more....

Not only do you get 4 lovely IBC's but you also get a box of Ebara pumps.. There's at least half a dozen pumps in here and according to a Werdna (who recently took a box of pumps) he managed to easily fix 4-5 of these same pumps by replacing the internal capacitors...

First in best dressed....... :)

See how quickly things move.... It's reduced, there's now only 3 IBCs, someone rang back wanting to buy one of them for $40, but we will definitely keep it as a total of 3 + the pumps, for a carton..

I also picked up a box of pumps. There was 7 in my box and so far I have 5 working, 1 possible and one dead. Most of them were jammed by some expanded clay.

WHAT?!?!
None of mine were jammed by clay! So far anyway.
Looks like you got the pick of the bunch!
Mine have all been pulled apart and have screws missing!

But if you need a cap to fix a dead one let me know, I did a bulk order.
You can tell if its the cap, it is bulged.

Well here is the report from the ones that were returned with their screws missing and from memory we were told that we would be charged if they were asked to dispose of them. They were dropped off without the screws in tact, we have not placed another order since and received no response when we sent an email via their website, funnily enough I believe we are listed as a supplier. LOL. tTe last guy that came to buy an Ebara got sold a Grundfos after seeing the shelf of shame.

I have inspected the pumps and can report the following .





Of the 14 pumps, 10 have legible serial numbers. Of these , the serial number would indicate that 9 of the pumps have most probably been installed for more than 1 5 to 18 months.



3 still run, so we don't know the reason they are returned.



3 have capacitors that have "blown", and this is generally due to a power supply problem or surge.



The remaining 8 all have some form of physical damage and/or foreign matter behind the impeller, indicating they have suffered some misuse.



From the limited information we have it would appear that none of these are warranty.



Without any further information on the operation, installation, proof of purchase etc. we are unable to examine any further.

To date , the work done will not incur a fee . If we proceed further , based on the findings to date , there will be a $75 fee per pump for a full report . We will also require the proof of purchase from your clients before the commencement of any further inspection by us and written approval from you to proceed .
