  • Great communication, fast shipment
Cons
  • None.
It was great dealing with someone once again that I go back a few years with. Eddie was one of those fellow hobbyist I did transactions with for the past few years, whether it be buying, selling or breeding loans as is the case this time. Of important note, here in the L.A. area we've been experiencing a late summer....Eddie had postposed shipping his MM to me out of concern for the animal, that says a lot. He's a definite recommend!

Can really ask for more if you are trying to start your own colony, mostly larges, or if you just need some for right away. I can't recommend any higher do yourself a favor and take advantage of the great deal

I was extremely pleased with my purchase from Eddie (elportoed). The tarantula was packed well and sprung from its packaging into its new enclosure. Eddie was very courteous and communicative, following the progress of the shipping closely and texting me before I knew it had arrived at my front door. He shipped quickly and his pricing was also exceptional. I managed to obtain a sub adult confirmed female from him for around the same price that other dealers are selling un-sexed specimens. Excellent, excellent experience. Thank you so much, Eddie.

  • Great communication and customer service. Very good price.
I am very happy with my purchase of Dubia roaches. The packaging was secure and the shipping was fast. They were a very good price and there was definitely an over count as well. This seller also maintained great communication throughout the process.
Definitely recommend!

Great price on a lovely specimen. Described as 2.5 inch but I think it may be a bit larger. A great experience, thanks!

I got a female P. regalis and some dubia roaches from Eddie. I had great communications with Eddie and he shipped out the package fast. The tarantula arrived well and safe. There’re plenty of overcounts on the dubia too. Great experience!

I ordered 100 females as well as an additional few hundred nymphs. I received 154 females (!!!), 10 males, and too many nymphs to count. I'm beyond satisfied with this order and I have already recommended Eddie to a few friends.

Cons

Bought 650 mixed sizes on Tuesday October 2nd, shipped out on Friday of that week and arrived on the following Tuesday (would have arrived on Monday, but it was a holiday). Seller let me know that they were low on larges, but more than made up for it in over count :D They provided their personal cell # and delivered tracking notifications throughout the transit. Very awesome communication and customer service. Did not notice any dead on arrival. They were shipped in a cardboard box wrapped in bubble wrap within a second cardboard box. Very safe and secure, definitely minimized bumps or risk of damage. Just be prepared when opening! Lots of little nymphs are already scurrying around outside of the interior box. Those are just an added bonus :)

Working with Eddie was everything that a tarantula purchase should be. He was so easy to talk to and work with; and he picked me out a healthy tarantula, sending her in great packaging. Eddie is very responsive with messages, and obviously cares about the tarantulas he sells, judging by her healthy and the packaging she came in. Highly recommend this seller and his tarantulas!
