I ordered a nice specimen. B. klaasi female. Listed at 5in but more like 5.5in or more. I love when that happens. Quick, cheap shipping and packaging was on point. I'm very thankful for this tarantula. Thank you.

Again I'm very happy with my purchase! Everything was as smooth as it should be. I'd be happy to buy from Michael again. No complaints thats for sure. Thank you!
Edited: Because it didn't register my 5 star review.
My third order from Michael - for the first time, unfortunately, a tiny sling was DOA. It was promptly refunded without issue. Packing was excellent and all the rest very healthy. I always try to order from this seller, he is the best.
Great communication, great price, well started spiderlings

This is my first time buying from Inland Sea Exotics. I'm usually hesitant buying from huge vendors..couldn't have been more wrong when it comes to Inland Sea. I received a quick response after inquiring about some slings. Got a great deal, got a freebie. Packaging was top notch!! slings arrived healthy and active. I received some very well started slings, not always the case when buying tiny 2nd instar slings. Couldn't be happier with this purchase.
Whether I’m selling or buying, I will definitely come back to Inland Sea. Had quite a bit of H. villosella slings I was looking to part with and Michael made it quick and easy. Thanks again!
I placed my second order from Inland Sea this past weekend. The spiders were shipped the day after I placed the order. Everything was packaged well and arrived safely. The prices are unbeatable, and the spiders were on the larger side. Definitely recommended
I recently purchased 22 tarantulas from Inland Sea, all of which were packed securely, and all arrived alive and well. I'm very pleased with the transaction, and would not hesitate to order again. Thanks!
Sometimes it can be scary buying something from a complete stranger on the internet. You never know what sort of mess you might be getting yourself into.
I had absolutely nothing to worry about buying from Michael however. He was able to ship my order out very quickly, and I had my new spooder pals before I knew it. They were healthy, acclimated to their new enclosures very well, and he even gave me a freebie! Best day ever!
I would absolutely buy from Michael again and would encourage all the other kids on my block to due the same.
This was a very, very good purchase and all the T's came happy and healthy. If I had to say a negative, the paper towels in the largest vial were extremely hard to get out, but honestly, nothing that was a big deal. Great service!
Second time I've purchased from this vendor and again the service was excellent. Shipping was fantastic.. Packaging was excellent. Communication was quick and informative. Will not hesitate to purchase from again.
I am very pleased with my purchase! The seller definitely cares about the tarantulas they sell. The tarantula came packed tight with extra measures to make sure it didn't get hurt, and came quickly. The communication between me and the seller was great as well. Will definitely buy again!
First T order in 12 years and it couldn’t have gone better!

great people to order from, I would advise new collectors (such as myself) to pay close attention to the size while ordering.
the classified was clearly written and I would order from them again..
which I probably will
I purchased three slings; all arrived wonderfully packaged and safe. He was very kind to hold my shipments until the weather cooperated and even reached out before I did with an available time! Great experience; I would purchase again.
I purchased 9 slings and was given about a 15 % discount. Shipping was delayed 4 days and thanks to the wonderful packaging they were able to survive not only the heat but the 6 trips between my city and the capital. Seller included a free cool pack for no extra charge. Messaged back extremely quickly. All around amazing experience, would absolutely buy again!
Excellent customer service, healthy spiders, great prices

I ordered 6 slings from Michael on September 1st 2020. He responded to all my emails very quickly and thoroughly, and helped me to select a date with optimal weather for shipping -- something that a bigger business we originally were looking at ordering from refused to do. The slings were packed well with a cool pack, since temps are near 90, and were well-protect. They all emerged healthy and vigorous.
I was really pleased with the selection and the prices and wanted even more species than what I got. I will definitely be a return customer.
Attached are a couple of photos of the Hapalopus sp & B. smithi I received.
Professional businessman (very appreciated in this hobby)
Trustworthy
Stress free transactions

As a breeder I've been selling slings to ISE for several years now. Working with Michael has been a true pleasure - he is a prompt payer, responds quickly to your concerns or questions and is very reliable and trustworthy. If you're considering selling or buying from him, do not hesitate - you will be happy you did!
