Also included a freebie

Spiders showed up alive and healthy due to excellent packing

I bought two mature males from MobBurrow and he threw in a Pumpkin Patch sling for free. Very happy with my purchase and definitely would buy from him again :D

It was a pleasure making a purchase from Mobburrow. It was a first time purchase of tarantulas on Arachnoboards and it was a positive one.

My package was actually delayed in transit by the carrier by two days (my guess is due to Hurricane Matthew) but all my Pumpkins arrived safe and sound, in part due to the excellent packaging material Mobburrow used. The spiders are healthy

I would love to purchase from this vendor again in the near future. Hair Mob District.. the bomb!

Cons
  • always comes at the end of the day when we are packing up hahahaha but that's ok he only comes to see one vendor so why come mid day when you have to pay
Mobburrow met me at an expo as I was packing up for the day and followed me back to the spider room where we worked out a trade for some hapalopus sp . He didn't want much for the slings he brought me. Always nice to have someone one out to the spider room to bullshit about spiders.

Pros
  • Took care of my male Returned him when I asked
Sooo, none of the above criteria really apply to our transaction, but here's what went down.

He needed a MM that I have, and he lives locally. I wanted my male back, so I didn't want to sell him, and Scott is a breeder so I didn't want to ask for a 50/50 and cut in to his stock. I let him borrow my male in exchange for 2 slings of a different species as a sort of stud fee.

We met up and I gave him my boy, then 2 months later when I asked for him back, he gave him back. He kept my male alive and returned him. That's integrity!

  • Fast, friendly communications, great prices, excellent packaging
Cons
  • Pssh, none!
This is the second time I've purchased from Scott. I bought several slings and had no doubt that they would arrive safely based on the last time he sent me a package - and he definitely did not let me down!

This is one of the friendlier people I've encountered on arachnoboards - if you are considering making a purchase, don't hesitate - I promise you won't be disappointed!

Pros
  • Willing to go the extra mile to make shipping safe and economical in marginal weather, but also very concerned for the welfare of the animals. Fantastic communication, great post-sale follow up, and generous with his time in providing care information and advice for genera or species that may be new to the buyer.
Cons
  • Absolutely none. Completely satisfied.
Ok, first the mundane praise: Scott has an impressive assortment of genera and species on hand, both old world and new; the descriptions are absolutely accurate - no surprisingly tiny or massive specimens that you aren't prepared to house properly; his communication is superlative; and the boxes are carefully and properly packed to protect your creatures from the elements, shipping mishaps, etc. He runs a highly professional organization.

Now for the seriously awesome aspects: this man will get 'er done in every sense. I was a nervous buyer, purchasing spiders on line for the first time, branching for the first time into arboreals, and shipping at a FAR from ideal time of year for Arizona, July! Scott talked me through my species selection, watched the weather forecasts with me, and made two separate trips to shipping offices rather than stick me with an unexpectedly high shipping bill because of my rural address. He also helped me with my species selection and made me feel confident in tackling the Psalmopoeus genus with my first irminia and cambridgei.

And who else offers an excellent choice of freebies with a $25 purchase? What a deal!

Poor Scott. I wouldn't wish me as a customer to my worst enemy. In all, there were 48 exchanges in our conversation before my purchase was complete (obviously half of which were his) to make absolutely sure that my order was wise, timely, safe, and RIGHT for me, personally. I only wish I had the extra budget to afford that Thrixopelma ockerti female... perhaps in the fall, when it cools down and shipping will be a bit less arduous.

Scott has earned my respect, and I'm pretty hardcore picky about customer service. I will definitely begin all future searches for new Tarantulas with The Hairy Mob District.

  • Healthy Tarantula, Great Packaging, Amazing Communication, Freebies, Flexible Shipping Dates
I ordered a female Lasiodora Parahybana and Scott was very helpful when it came to shipping, allowing me to hold shipping until I was able to receive the tarantula. All this with amazing communication! He even gave me 3 freebie Pumpkin T's! The packaging was great and the tarantulas were healthy and beautiful. I am very satisfied with my experience!
