Why is there such a big difference in pricing on E Bay for the 26-99's? Chinese knock offs?
-
Some buy in bulk and redistribute the savings. There is no Chinese Grundfos to my knowledge, the $150 and $300 ones are identical
-
The supplier I was going to get my pump from offered me a Wasser 25110s and said it was a 26-99 Chinese Knock-off for $275 CAD or $205 USD. That's about half of what he wanted for the 26-99.Not getting my pump there anymore, found a much better deal.
Don't know what type of pump that actually is but thought someone might know.

I think there are several brands of those Chinese knockoff pumps out there. They seem to make more trouble with electrical issues, broke impellers, etc . At least that's what I've seen. I do have a couple of big ones on a chip burner locally that have run for years.

Ya, I'm not taking any chances. I will be sticking with the real Grundfos 26-99, I've heard people say they get a long service time from this brand of pump.

I am running liquidus pumps this is the first year for me so we will see how they work
A lot of people day it is a knock off of grundfos

Not to start a war or anything, but you guys sure get hosed up their on about everything.

That's for sure...especially if we try to bring something in from the US. The duty and brokerage fees are insane. I am real leary on buying anything from ebay because of it, I have bought before and a $100 item quickly turns into a $200 - $250 item real quickly. Although it depends a lot on the courier the seller uses, some are worse than others for their brokerage fees. If I can find it within the province for not a bad price, then I usually lean toward that..
