Where to get ADA tank?

[hdarius]

Hi Guys,

Want to know where can i get an ADA tank and is it more reliable to get from LFS or those online stores?

Thanks in advance.

I do not think there is any different. Those online may have free delivery though

You can try Biotope.

Thanks guys. I did check around online. Somehow they charge differently due to delivery charges and all. Will continue to look around.

In Singapore, only Biotope is holding the stock for ADA tanks (I think)

Not really..., there are others and is chxxxx also.

Biotope is Singapore's authorized ADA distributor. If buying from another shop? doesn't it means coming from Biotope as well?

from what i know the distributor sells the items on the SRP where the retailer can get a bit cheaper. otherwise there is no point the retailer would sell the items since the distributor sells them cheaper?

According to the ADA website Biotope is listed as one of the authorized resellers, not the distributor.

that is correct, at the moment ADA Malaysia is actually the distributor

Thanks for the correction guys.

Actually if not mistaken there was an agreement that everything in Singapore will be coming from Biotope, thus unofficially it is an Singapore ADA distributor.

There's nothing stopping parallel imports from coming in though, as long as they're originals

There are more story in it. Just like Toyota car there's distributor and lots of reseller in spore but lots of reseller dont get from the local distributor in spore and certain series like "WISH" was distributed by the reseller only until lately much persuade by the local distributor to sell here.

Yes. Parallel import = no stopping. For example, organize group buy in HK and carry back

I feel that the ADA Sg situation is such that it is been controlled and we are a small market. Therefore, no power in price negotiation.

Chicken and egg thing again.

lol... locally they sell, don't have to parallel import, if you know where to get it.

[hmpkbetta]

biotope...have it..

Has anyone bought ADA products in Malaysia and carry in? What are their prices like, I wonder what kind of sale volume ADA has in Malaysia.
