So with some negotiation with the pump manufacturer peripump and my account with them which supplies Neptune their doser pump heads for their DOS doser, I was able to get 12 heads for $237 shipped plus tax and fee total is $252. Shipping is always the expensive part but they were able to do a deal with FedEx for cheaper shipping.

Brings each pump assembly replacement to $21. Brs and others sell them for $37 each... Of course price gouging people for profit since Neptune is owned by them and these heads last maybe a year.

They come from China and will be here in a couple weeks, but I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in buying from me and want any future orders. I know things are tight around the holidays so any little bit of money saved on these overpriced parts is worth it to me plus half the time I check they are never available on brs.

I would sell them at $25 each head and probably do a few in a box minimum for each person to save on shipping. Shipping shouldn't be much domestic since they are small and lightweight. Let me know. I got sick of paying for overpriced heads and brs never having them in stock, so I went to the manufacturer. I'm going to test these out on my own doser to verify they work first, but these should be the exact same units and parts.

Here's my invoice

I have ordered the ones with NPT 3.2 fittings not what's pictured for fittings. The ones in getting should be the Same as Neptunes, so this picture just shows what doser heads I'm talking about for the Neptune dos, but the only difference is the ones I ordered will come with the grey fittings that will fit the standard tubing for dosers.

Why not just have them with john guest type fittings so nothing has to be converted? Cost?

I'd be interested in a couple after you get them in.
Okay they came in, tested works fine, looks exactly the same. The replacement snapped in place on my dos and it felt very firm. It did not come off with me even trying to force it off just squeezed the the pushable sides and came off. Its literally the exact same thing that Neptune sells for $40 but is made for less than $10. Funny how these companies build their crap in China and sell it for 4x the cost. Gotta love the good deals
