Has anyone had any dealings with these guys?

http://www.boyu-australia.com/

Their prices seem a bit more expensive than Guppy but quite a bit less than Aquasonic.

They've been mentioned quite frequently... and not very favourably...

As a search for "boyu" would highlight... :D

Yea, not only are they crap, but if you do a search on used to be good but not anymore google, you will find evidence of them over-estimating thier pump outputs while under-estimating the amount of power used, by a lot.

Do not trust half as far as you can throw.

Damn - wish I knew about them when I ordered from Bodgy Boyu! They could work on improving their product google search - I did heaps of googling to find an aussie stockist for Hailea. Seems like they have them:

Though no prices listed.

That seems an extraordinarily low price for a 150l/m air pump...

Thats why I am asking.

Their other stuff is cheap as well.

I can understand that is the case if there cost base is small because they are working out of the back shed. Which I don't mind as long as they are good people to deal with.

When I first looked at the link... I read it as $75.... $175 sounds more like a reasonable price... :lol:
