Those prices are why I don't buy online. There are a few quality breeders here in the SoCal area with great prices and I understand that people in a lot of states don't have the luxury of being able to drive to breeders. If they don't have what I'm looking for I wait for the Reptile Expos to come around, always great deals to be found at expos.

Not only is a female G pulchra expensive in the US, it's hard to find. Supply and demand

Sorry to hear that, @PolarisTR , where abouts are you moving to?

I have seen B. hamorii sub adults and adults for insane high prices, which is obviously partly the result of the CITIES ban.

I wish I could buy the G. Pulchra. I know someone else who is getting out of the hobby. If money isn't an issue, you might consider her method, which is giving away the spiders in exchange for donations to the local humane society.
