Joe Rossi

I’ve seen a lot of Joe’s ads on here and he always has super rare (and understandably expensive) arachnids, and I finally caved when I saw something I’ve wanted for a long time. Joe responded fast to my inquiry and provided me with all of the necessary info on the spiders I was ordering. He shipped promptly and all of the spiders arrived alive and well packed. This is a very professional seller and I wouldn’t hesitate to order again.

I have purchased about 10 Ts from Joe and every transaction has been great. You can be confident that your purchase is captive bread and healthy.

This was another great transaction with Joe. He sent the slings along safely nestled into their packaging. It's easy to see that he takes great care of the slings. I'll definitely buy from Joe again!

Received spiders alive and active. Will buy from this seller again for sure. Couldn’t not be happier!

Probably the best packed shipment I’ve ever received, at least in recent memory. Joe did a fantastic job shipping 7 inverts to me and was even nice enough to include a free A.Hentzi. Will absolutely buy from this seller again.

I finally got my P. Species Solaris and Joe was an utter gem of a man to buy from! You can’t go wrong with him! You can tell he really cares about each of the tarantulas he sells!

Purchased a inothele megatheloides from him and he could not have made the process easier. He is very helpful with information on the subject and has a massive collection of Arachnids. WILL definitely recommend anyone looking to buy from him!

Perfect experience as always!

I have made several purchases over the last 6 months, from various venders with varying degrees of happiness from the transaction.

I have never had a bad experience when buying from Joe. The man understands this hobby, he cares deeply about this hobby, and he takes care of his customer base.

10/10 will do this again.

Another awesome sale with Joe! He reached out to me a month ago with his species list for import he was getting in. I got really excited to see some genera I've been wanting for ages on it. The import arrived this week and he coordinated the pickup with me yesterday via Matt at Jurassic Pets aka The Spider Room. I purchased two Eresus walckenaeri and one Liphistius yangae, and they're all awesome! The little Liphistius is tiny but fast and healthy. The Eresus is a spiderling as well, very active, and is checking out its new enclosure. A+ as usual, wish we could have met up and chatted for a bit!

Purchased 2 slings (Avic Minatrix and Dolichothele diamantinensis). Joe communicated quick and was easy to set up a pick up for the slings. He was very friendly and helpful. Both slings looked in great shape. He is an A+ seller, will definitely look forward to getting more from him again.

I ordered 5 H. Gabonensis slings and 2 Scolopendra Hainanum from Joe, all arrived healthy and alive.
Packing was great, in an insulated box packed tight.
The H gabonensis slings were way bigger than expected and I already got a killer deal on them.

Joe kept in communication throughout the whole process of buying and even called me to explain some questions/concerns about shipping that I had.

overall, very pleased with buying from Joe and look forward to purchasing from again!

Joe sold me a healthy, beautiful T. apophysis sling. Very happy with the transaction and would recommend him without reservations.

I am a first-time tarantula owner. After researching for a while on my own, I found countless raving reviews of Joe on Arachnoboards and other sites as well. Luckily for me, he lived only about an hour away from me and I could buy from him!
Over the course of a week I sent him constant questions by text, and sometimes phone calls, to ask about tarantula care and what he had available, etc. He was very accommodating and polite, and extremely helpful no matter when I texted him, and was happily willing to call as well.
Upon receiving the tarantula, he helped me make sure the enclosure I had made was appropriate, and showed me around the shop for helpful items that I could use as well.
He sent photos of my options before I decided on one and was happy to give me a large bumba cabocla sling!
If you are new to tarantulas, Joe is your guy. Very helpful and super kind, happy to have had the chance to buy and learn from him.
Thanks Joe!

joe is good people. 10/10 would buy again

I purchased a Brazilian blue from Joe this morning and I am very pleased with the transaction. Because of my tight schedule and some medical needs of my children, I couldn't meet him on the day I made contact. Joe was willing to work with me and accepted a down payment to hold the tarantula I wanted. When we did meet up, he was actually there before I was, so I didn't have to wait and we met at a really cool reptile shop. I also bought a small snake to go in my palidarium. I would purchase from Joe again just for the same experience.

Joe is a very easy person to work with, very informative and willing to help and answer any questions or concerns you may have. Beautiful and healthy Tarantulas as described and pictured. I will remain in contact with Joe and definitely will purchase again! A++

My experience was a great one with Joe Rossi! He answered all my questions quickly and provided pictures of the actual slings I wanted to buy. His shipping was fast and packing even better! When I couldnt make it to FedEx to get my package he called me to personally make sure things were ok and that I would be able,to get the package soon. He cares a lot about his inverts and takes pride in what he does and it shows! Thanks Joe it was a pleasure and I will be back!

Joe was easy to work with, had a nice selection of spiders, and packaged them really well.

Will stay in touch as I'm sure he'll have some more stuff I want in the future!

A+

Everything was perfect. Great communication, well packed and shipped quickly. Healthy looking Ts and a very nice freebie.

I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase from Joe again.
