Pros
  • great prices
  • fast communication
  • extremely safe packaging
i bought an m.balfouri from matt and she arrived in great condition, along with a free p.auratus sling due to a sudden skyrocket in shipping costs. communication was always extremely quick, and he was very patient while i tried 100 different payment methods to get these tarantulas lol
they’re both settling in well, i’ll absolutely buy from him again in the future. best experience i’ve had with a tarantula dealer so far

I purchased a female A. Ezendami from Matt and couldn’t be happier. Communication was excellent, packed very well, and she arrived as described. I won’t hesitate to do business with him again.

  • Incredibly quick responses

Ordered a pair of adult Acanthoscurria Geniculata that recently arrived. Matt was incredibly responsive often e-mailing back within 5 minutes. Transaction was painless and he was willing to hold them for a week while I waited for a new case to arrive. The actual spiders were very healthy and were the advertised size. Definitely would order from again!

Quick correction, 'adults' was a typo instead it should read 'sexed juveniles'.
First time ordering from Nukamedia, and not my last!

Pros
  • Fast shipping, healthy T, great customer service!!!
Cons
  • None
I found this seller through Arachnoboards and so glad I did. I got a beautiful T from Matt: she arrived safe and sound, very healthy. She's always out and about and ate within a couple days.

I'm not sure what's better: the T I got from him, or the exceptional communication and customer service. He sent me updates on the shipment and asked for one once I unboxed to make sure she was OK. He definitely cares not just about the animals, but that I was a happy customer. This was very clear in our email exchange, that he will go above and beyond to achieve both.

I will definitely order from him again, especially if he gets the unicorns I'm looking for! Thank you!

Pros
  • Fast customer service, great communication, and fast shipping with healthy tarantulas.
I was super busy the day I wanted to purchase a sling, but he had one left of the species I wanted. He actually worked with me and helped the transaction along with a request to me after discussing what it is I was looking for, because I had been swamped that day and didn't have the time. Anyway, the communication and ease of service and fast next day shipping was great. Slings arrived healthy in vials and I had a great experience. I'd definitely purchase from him again. To me, communication is a big part of transactions.

Thank you

I am so happy with my experience buying from NukaMedia Exotics! Matt is extremely responsive and very conscientious when it comes to the health and safety of his spiders. I purchased a 2” Bumba horrida (ex cabocla) that arrived with no trouble. I would absolutely buy from him again!

I reached out to Matt about purchasing two
Phormictous auratus slings he had on sale and within a few minutes we had completed the transaction. He reached out to me saying the FedEx was having some delays in shipping, so he asked if I could wait a few more days to ship out, which I totally agree with! When it was time to ship out the package the two slings came in perfect condition. Thanks again Matt

My second time purchasing from Nuka and just as pleased as the first if not more! I had a useless eBay gift card and he was able to make me an eBay listing so I could get rid of it. Very nice and funny guy, definitely doing business again in the future!

Pros
  • Very rapid response to questions, seamless process for purchasing, one of the best quality specimens that I've seen, careful packing for delivery
Cons
  • I honestly can't think of a single con!
I am writing this review so that other T-lovers can have a good purchasing experience. I have a number of tarantulas in my collection, this one from Matt will make number six. Therefore, I have had experience with the purchase of T's. Working with Matt has honestly been the best T purchasing event I have had so far. I want other T-lovers to purchase with confidence from this breeder. I was also given 2 sling "freebies, which way above and beyond, in my opinion. Thank you so much!

  • Patient
  • Great communication
  • Extremely helpful

I found Nuka through advertising both here and on Facebook and to say I was nervous at first would be an understatement. I always get nerves when purchasing any animal from someone new.

I messaged back and forth with Matt for several days, including asking him a question about a T that wasn’t even supplied by him, and he was more than patient with me and my questions - which says a LOT! He was very friendly and kind throughout these messages.

I finally landed on a T. Apophysis and let him know I was ready to pull the trigger. The entire transaction took less than five minutes - and it would’ve been shorter if my Venmo didn’t decide to act like a dingus! From there, he let me know he would provide tracking as soon as he had it available on his next shipping day.

Yesterday, he messaged me with the tracking number and the most beautiful T. Apophysis arrived save and sound today! Alongside the Apophysis, there was a beautiful tiny N. Chromatus sling as well. Per his request, I let him know the T’s arrived and were safely nestled into their new homes.

I have every intention of working with NukaMedia again in the future!
Thanks so much for everything!

We see the name NukaMedia Exotics here a lot. Behind their frequent advertising you will find an excellent vendor. I've bought before and would do so again.

To the point, it's great to hear from particular forum members whether I'm in the capacity of buying, selling or breeding loans and Matt is one of them for sure. The review title says it ALL..... "Yet another great and positive transaction with Matt!" A definite recommend!

I first ordered from him on July 17th and then again on July 19th. I ordered 2 tarantulas a Pamphobeteus sp. Machalla tarantula female with a 4” leg span and a GBB with a 2.5” leg span. When the tarantulas arrived they were nicely packed in deli cups within packing peanuts. Both tarantulas arrived live and well. Would really recommend this seller. Will be buying from you again.

Pros
  • Quick response time
  • Excellent packaging
  • Healthy, active, vibrant T
Cons

Bought my first ever tarantula from NukaMedia Exotics and I couldn't have been happier with my decision. The seller was always extremely quick to respond to my messages, was patient with my {many} questions and with me changing my shipping method, and was always polite.

His packaging of the T was absolutely perfect-- the box was well insulated/cushioned with foam and a soft, fabric material. The T came neatly wrapped in a paper towel in a small condiment cup, so it wouldn't be tossed around in the box, but instead was kept very snug. I don't think there is any way this T could've been damaged in shipping unless it was ran over by a truck lol

The T came out with lots of energy, it looks healthy and active even though it's been on a bit of a trip with the shipping. Couldn't have been happier and would definitely buy from this seller again.

Plus I got a cool sticker with the seller's logo on it!
