Do not ever buy a cheap grow tent on eBay

Then don't discuss. My comment about the inherent design flaw wasn't actually addressed to you but was an open comment, particularly aimed at anyone who was thinking about purchasing this type of reflector and who happened upon this thread.

Oh believe me, I would have never brought it up if you wouldn't have decided to go off-topic in direct response to my picture. Thought I would clear the air because many new / uniformed people might read your post and get the impression that cool tubes are bad... so I also was aiming that at anyone thinking of purchasing that type of lighting. It is nice to see both sides of the coin. So yes, like I said, the reason why I posted the picture was to show the tent and not to get into a lighting discussion, so I will end that conversation now.

Anyway, back to the topic...if anyone is interested where I bought the tent, it was from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280908543864&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160 . The seller regularly puts several of them up for bid at $114...they usually go for that price since they list so many.

i'll stick with my 20.00 uhaul box any day

This mother piece of $hit yescomusa sold me a garbage tent also. I was looking all over ebay for a grow tent trying to make sure I get one thats strong and that will hold my lights up. The ad says it can support 352 lbs with each rod holding 88 lbs. I got the tent home and after I set it up found out that it can't even hold 50 lbs. I ended up returning it. They want you to pack it up in original packaging which is next to impossible once you have opened it, I ended up packing it in a large cardboard box. That alone will discourage buyers to not want to return it. I'm going to report this assholes auction to ebay if the description doesn't change. That was the deal breaker when the ad said it can hold that much weight, otherwise I would have bought a different tent hopefully from someone honest.
