I'm about to bite on this. Does anyone know the difference between refridgeration tubing and type K tubing? Type K tubing @ coppertubingsales.com is $138 + shipping for the same coil.
 
I don't think I'd trust them - a 0/10 rating at reseller ratings, with only 2 votes (so they may be either new, or unpopular)

But if you're willing to risk a measly $20 it may be worth a shot even knowing you're likely to get screwed in the deal. I'd probably use paypal, and not keep any extra money sitting in my account, so in theory there's nothing worse that could happen than losing your initial payment.

When it seems too good to be true...................
 
Guys... Come on now... You can't buy it at scrap for that.. Pass..

Buy from a reputable source.
 
Is there a reason the box says 3/4 x 60' ?

Contact them first. If you are satisfied, order away. You could also check with Paypal to see if they have been a reputable seller and if they will protect your transaction.

Keep us updated.
 
It's actually a Truevalue hardware product and they do have a screwup on their site in that they list the per-foot price for all their copper tubing although it doesn't say that ANYWHERE...
Not the exact item, but an example: http://www.idealtruevalue.com/servlet/the-154193/02007-5-fdsh-8X50-COPPER-REFRIG/Detail

I called them a while back and they confirmed it's by the foot. I argued that it should say that on the site and they agreed... whoopie, it's not changed. I wonder if they have to honor that as far as paypal's dispute system is concerned. I suppose at best, they can force a refund.
 
I just got off of the phone wth them and it is a typo... it was supposed to be per foot and they offered to give me a discounted rate but i just ended up not getting it and have my money refunded... oh well, worth a shot lol
