Good animals and a nice suprise in the form of a ling of P. ornata. Good package and tarantulas as advertised. Certain lack of communication but all resolved. I will repeat.
Purchase had to be split between two shipments due to some slings were still 1st instars. Everything arrived in good condition. Would purchase from again. Thanks
All items were as specified, within an acceptable margin of error.
Miko sent me a freebie on the first all DOA order, and then sent me another freebie on the LAG replacement order! I did not expect that AT ALL! Very excited about my new Cyriopagopus sp. HatiHati
Prices seemed generally lower than other vendors.
Cons
Communication could have been more prompt, but I came to find out that one of the delays in responding was due to an emergency out of the sellers control, and therefore consider the other delays in communication very minor and perhaps partially attributed to a language barrier.
I initially bought a bulk order of Avic sp, peru purple slings and some psalmos, and a GBB pair, but the initial order arrived DOA. There was a bit of a lull in communication after this and I was worried that I'd have to go through paypal at times, which was the last thing I wanted to do.
Fortunately I was patient because the seller finally responded and said that the reason for lack of communication had been a severe emergency which disallowed him to communicate with me, and that he would of course send me a second order of spiders.
The inventory had changed since then, but that was not a problem, as I had already ordered many of the spiders I had wanted from the original order. My final order was for 1 4" P. miranda, 1 1" P. ornata sling, a GBB male female pair, each 2.5-3", and a C. sp HatiHati sling as a freebie!
Very satisfied. Only reason I wouldn't order again is because I didn't know the US laws regarding this at the time of purchase.
Excellent communication! Top notch packing! Great specimens!
Cons
The H. sanguinipes weren't 1.5" as advertised (more like 3/4-1").
I just received my package from Miko. I was blown away with results. Everything was alive and well (after being in transit for 2 weeks). I had extra of the sp. that I ordered and even freebies of things I didn't. One freebie was a DOA (O. Philippinus)- but it was a freebie so no complaints from me. Everything was exactly as described. Size was accurate on everything I ordered except for the Holothele sanguinipes (which are around 3/4-1" instead of 1.5" as advertised) BUT the freebies and extras make up for that AND THEN SOME and price is more than fair for them at 3/4-1"! I highly recommend Miko to anyone!!! He keeps excellent communication and packs very well....took me about 30 minutes just to unpack, lol. I'm looking forward to many future dealings with Miko! Awesome packing job! Top notch specimens! Very professional! Thank you so much, Miko! You're awesome to deal with! Until my next order......
Over 10 slings arrived healthy, plump, and active! Definitely will be buying from him again. Always am happy with what I get. This was my second time purchasing and I'm confident there will be a third!
