Best Place's to go

Was good everybody

, I've been hearing alot of talk on where can I get my equipment... Lights, nutrients, etc.
I don't know if a thread about this has already been made but, I'll share my experience with the sites I deal with regularly.
I'm always searching for the cheapest yet reliable site for certain things.
All sites are known for a certain product that they have for da low and can't noone beat. Been ordering shit for 7 years and always find a new connect that gets it better than my last. Kinda like my bulk dealers.
So here they are you might already know about them but many don't.

Lights: Known for lights
High Tech Garden Supply
HTGS has good service and tosses deals when you call them up directly I haven't done that yet but people on here are getting deals from just calling up. They aren't good on nutrients tho a little pricey on that note.

Shipping: Great usually shipped out the next day and there in 2 days.
I've had free upgrades from them just because they were out of stock on my reg item.
A lil slow on emails but phone call is a np.

Fans: Known for Fans and bulbs
Metal Halide Light Bulbs, Light Fixtures & Tennis Court Lighting - Businesslights.com
Businesslights has some of the lowest prices on vortex fans and ductboosters.

It's crazy, they have inline fans going as low as $109. And alot of sites charge way more for the same fan.
Shipping: is low only like $18 for my order Idk the flat rate there tho.
Great customer service, got emailed back within the day.

Nutes: Good deals on Nutrients
Grow Lights, Advanced Nutrients, Hydroponic Supplies and more at Hydroempire
http://www.cheaphydroponics.com

Both of these are great sites for nutes not so well on lights tho(kinda pricey on that). Hydro systems aren't bad priced but I can't comment on that since I haven't ordered one from either.
AN Sensi +2 ran me 26 a pop so only 52 for all 4 bottles from cheaphydro.
Shippings is just like HTG supply 2days to my door after ship. And I'm in the south.
These two site are in competition for the best prices when shipping is involved. It's like a couple dollars either way.
There are no deals tossed out on either of these sites but it's cheap so I never really tried to cop a better price.

Great customer service direct line none of that put you on hold sometimes I did get the answering machine so I just called back later

Grow tents:
http://www.cheaphydroponics.com

This is a great site also they upping prices over there tho idk y. Probaly getting charged more themselves
Homebox XS used to run $89 now they $100 but still cheaper than going direct to the Homebox Yahoo store.

Hydroponics | Hydroponic Supplies is great for drip systems and pH meters and net pots small stuff like that.
they don't really toss deals but do have live help. I think I'm going to learn how to build one tho cause it is cheaper.
Shipping is sometimes slow(too about 2weeks for some items to ship out but due to out of stock) but it gets to my door so I don't truly complain.

I hope this helps alot of new to buying or future growers.
All these sites have strict privacy polices and are located in the US so gift cards will work for people who like to take extra precautions like me and many others.
These are my honest opinions on all sites (I know it's kinda hard to read how I type but should be legible this time

). So I pass my knowledge onto others and maybe a few to alot of bucks

Peace

gotta smoke this blunt too much typing.

i remember having to memorize (-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a and recite it every day in algebra class all year. First one to do it in front of the class got extra credit. That shit worked ... I still remember it .. and occasionally use it!
