Pros
  • Superb communication.
  • Went to great lengths to facilitate a safe shipping arrangement.
  • Superlative packing of the T. No issues at all.
  • Sent pictures of my T, and a video of him packing it up. Totally awesome.
  • Very patient, very easy to work with.

The communication was topnotch and he held the T to facilitate my picking it up. A true Gentlemen and class act.

The B. Hamorii arrived safely this morning very professionally packed. She is gorgeous and in good health.

I would absolutely deal with @BoyFromLA again. I can recommend him without reservation as well.

It is always a pleasure meeting up with BoyFromLA.

Although we have done a few transactions this is the first time I was on the receiving end as well with a trade. All the spiders are well taken care of and I enjoy talking spiders with him. Like two kids in a candy shop talking about what their next flavor is. Never a dull moment, I look forward to future dealings, and I only wish (along with everyone else) that I could leave another review in the future....perhaps if the 1 review per person for ever rule ever gets changed LOL

Pros
  • Quick to reply, fair price, fantastic communication and packaging was superb.
Cons
  • Nothing, Nada, Zippo...
Viewed his sales thread and hit him up on a B. albopilosum female. He responded within a few minutes and deal was made shortly after. He lives in Cali (as do I) so that makes things go a lot smoother. He answered all my questions and provided pictures of my lil girl. Would definitely buy from him again!

Had a pleasure dealing with
BoyFromLA. I inquired about the ts he posted. We both agreed on fair trade. He’s communication is fast and reliable very nice guy to deal. Packaging skill is very professional. Tho there’s both delayed on our end. Both our ts came in safe and sound after 5 days in transit. Wouldn't hesitate to do business again in near future. Highly recomended :) :) thank you

BoyFromLA provided excellent communication and even shared an awesome video of packaging a 4” female tarantula to be shipped cross country. Gave shipping updates and answered any questions I had. Specimen arrived safe and healthy and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. BoyFromLA is a very fair, reasonable, and honest person.

Just recently picked up a female P. sazimai from BoyFromLA and the experience couldn't have been smoother. He was very helpful and prompt with his replies about any questions I had about the tarantula, and provided pictures and updates of her until I could pick her up. All in all, it was an amazing transaction and I will definitely purchase from him again in the future!

  • Knowledgeable Hobbyist, Prompt Payment, Great Communication, Live Unpacking Video
Cons
  • None!!!
Did a transaction w BoyFromLA recently...Everything went super smooth! He didn't hesitate to text me vs PM when it was clear we needed to stay in touch on the order...He decided to have it shipped on a later date than planned in order to ensure someone would be there to receive the package...Also, he was awesome enough to do a live unpacking facetime of him opening the box and rehousing the slings!!! I was my first time to see a customer open one of my packages as it happened, very cool!!!
