Pros
  • awesome communication
  • good pricing
Purchased two lots of slings from Shay, some S calc and P murinus. Communication was really good, reached out to me directly a few times with updates and a lot of apparent care for confirming the shipping hold location and timing. Slings were very healthy and safely packed. Would purchase again!

The spiders arrived in good shape. The package was well done as it needed to be. I can't get anything delivered next day. After two days in transit they were great.

Pros
  • Great communication, quick shipping, secure packaging
Shay was a pleasure to communicate with through the whole process. I purchased the slings before I left town for the holidays and he was kind enough to hold off on shipping until I returned.
When I returned, Robin texted me to arrange a date to ship. They were able to get them shipped out the very next day, and provided me with tracking information and updates along the way. The slings arrived right on time, and seem very happy and healthy. The slightly larger of the 2 slings is already webbing up its enclosure and munching on half a mealworm. Hopefully the smaller one follows suit soon!
I wouldn't hesitate to order from Gunnies again, awesome experience!

This was my first ever sling purchase from AB. It went amazingly smooth, and Shay was able to answer every question I had. I ordered a P. Regalis spiderling and received a N. Incei sling as well. Both are incredibly healthy and are already adjusting well. The packaging was secure,insulated, and ensured no-one would be injured in transportation. Thanks for the great transaction!

  • *Great prices *Went out of his way to get what I was looking for. *Fast shipping
Cons

Purchased a few T's and even though one of the MM's I was looking for sold he sexed another juvenile for me to fulfill the request. Communication was excellent and the selection was top notch. Transaction and shipping went as planned without any issues. Would definitely purchase from them again. I definitely would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase tarantulas,

Pros
  • Fast communication, great prices, beautiful specimens
I bought 3 C. versicolor, 1 P. cambridgei,
1 P. irminia and 1 C. cyaneopubescens. And was given a free H. Klein and N Incei from Gunnies Spiders. All are beautiful and I recieved then perfectly healthy. The packaging was excellent, as it keep them warm enough to make it to their new homes. The whole transaction with Gunnies was simple and easy. Answered all my question and responded very quickly each time. I recommend getting your next tarantulas from Gunnies Spiders.

Pro: Excellent communication, easily reachable. Transaction went off without a hitch and Shay kindly sent a B. albo as a freebie. We had some confusion over where the package wound up, but USPS finally got it figured out. Slings are all happy, healthy and quite mobile.

Con: If I had to list anything as a con, the "squeeze top" vials Shay used worried me but the tarantulas were entirely fine and tucked well down into the vials. I worried squeezing the vial too hard might squish them, but my concern was unfounded. Also, lots of tape with no easily located tabs so I had a time getting the slings out of their containers.

Overall, excellent! Would absolutely support again without question. Box was well-packed, tarantulas were safe and healthy and communication was top notch!

Pros
  • Sold me my first T! Was very friendly, answered my questions, and quick to respond. Packaging was tight and secure and well cushioned to insure a safe trip for the little male Green Bottle Blue.
Cons
  • I have no complaints!
When I first laid eyes on the juvenile GBB, I had a sense of amazement and awe. This tiny little guy was nothing like I pictured and didn't look like the pictures I saw, but that's because I had no idea the juveniles were so different from adults. Gunnies Spiders had very open and friendly communication and made my first purchase experience very pleasant. Would recommend to anyone wanting to buy a T and should I decide to delve further into the hobby, I will definitely buy from them again!

I had to get the shipping done on a certain day, so I paid ahead of time and kept in communication throughout the process. Communication was great and everything turned out great for getting my daughter her first T delivered on her birthday.
Look forward to future business!

Positive review for Shay. Absolutely Great communication. He's on the board daily to get back to your questions and I can tell you how important that is. Awesome attitude. Been looking for P. Sazimai adult female for a while now. Shay happened to have one in his list. I message him and we both agreed on fair trade. He shipped the day he would ship the spider. The Ts arrived and the packaging was top notch as well. I can tell that he really care about the ts wellbeing when they’re in transit, The way he packed it was absolutely perfect. Great experience all around. More than happy with my trade. Nice and easy guy to deal with. Highly recommended. Wouldn’t hesitate to do more business in the near future. Know you’re in good hand when dealing with Shay. Thank you :)

Awesome seller this was my first time buying online and it couldn't have gone better. Shay was very helpful and patient with my questions, the shipping job was awesome no moving around in there. The slings were shipped with cold packs and great insulation and arrived healthy and moving around in the straws. I would not hesitate to buy from again thank you again Shay for the positive experience!

Purchased 7 slings on a monday, shipped the next day, and arrived by thursday!

All of them were in good condition and alive upon arrival. Arrived in an insulated temperature controlled box. Each vial was securely cushioned inside the package using newspapers and damp paper towels to wrap the spiders. Tracking # was also provided.

Prices were excellent, and great deals on purchasing multiples. Even included a freebie!

Seller was able to respond fast through text, and very polite :)

  • Great selection, awesome freebies, great packaging, and fantastic communication.
Cons
  • None, wish I had a bigger budget to buy more.
Shay is awesome to work with. Bought some versi’s, boehemi’s, GBB’s, and curly’s. Shay threw in some awesome freebies as well. Great transaction, and I am looking forward to new stock within a few weeks. On top of the transaction, it took a little long to get the shipment, but that was due to Shay looking out for the T’s. Some were in premolt, and he put the animals’ well being above the sale. Pleasure to do business with.

  • Shay had great communication, often replying within only a few hours time, and what I ordered was shipped out immediately. Packaging was superb all the slings were lively and even all fifty of the dubia roaches I bought from him arrived alive.
Cons
  • If I'm going to nitpick a con here, I would say that I wish he had a few more species available to choose from.
Shay was quick to reply, polite, and friendly. He shipped quickly and his prices were competitive. It has been a little over a month since I purchased from him and all the slings are doing great. I would definitely recommend buying from Shay.
