I am ready for a Pond Vac

It would be great if we had someone close by who would let me try it.
No matter what, who has the best price?

Jerry, I purchased my pondovac 3 last year off e-bay, for around 265.00. I have heard if you bid on them you can pick them up this winter for around 200.00 on e-bay. Sellers are trying to move inventory in a buyers market.

Jerry if you decide to purchase one be sure to send in the registration because that gives you an additional 2 years on the warranty.  (will equal 5 yrs total which is a great warranty)

Keep us informed!
