The Spider Room

Found an Avic on his website that had been on my list for awhile and contacted him about purchasing at the Expo that weekend. He kinda held her for me and had 2 to choose from. I also came back and spotted a 4.5” female irminia that he advised me was on consignment. He carefully taped the lid shut for me and took my thanks back to the consignor. He also offered to try to find another on my wishlist. 5 in my collection are from Matt and I have no doubt there’ll be more.

Another smooth transaction from Matt at The Spider Room. When work hours allow, I try to go to his store in person. This time around, he had the 40% off New Year's Day sale and I took the opportunity to purchase a few slings and had them shipped to me. All three slings were packaged safely, kept warm, and arrived without issues. Matt kept me updated and responded quickly to communications. I would not hesitate to recommend The Spider Room to any buyer.

I've purchased multiple spiders and tarantulas from Matt. They've all been very healthy and have thrived in my care! I'm close enough to be able to pick up rather than ship, which is what initially appealed to me but I have been a returning customer since! I can't recommend him and the Spider Room more!

Mat is great and his spiders are healthy and beautiful. His communication was prompt and helpful. I immediately felt very confident ordering from him. I live in Denver, but they were cozy and warm with a heat pack and easy to prick up from the FedEx center. They were packed safely and securely; I had no issues removing my L. Parahybana and P. Cancerides from their comfy shipping containers, and I can’t wait to watch them grow. The baby Ardens and Baergi scorpion arrived perfectly too. They’re all very happy and healthy in their new enclosures and have already eaten a small snack; I couldn’t be more pleased. I will definitely order from the Spider Room again asap!

Another smooth purchase from Matt at The Spider Room. He communicated immediately regarding shipping date, provided picture of shipping label and tracking information, and packaged the spiders safely. The spiders were all healthy and active upon arrival. Thanks for another smooth purchase experience.

Centipede came in healthy and active

Overall an easy transaction. Matt is patient and accommodating. I always received a quick response to my emails. The quality of the slings was exceptional and I will definitely buy from him again.

I've been going here since I got my first t from a different seller and didn't wanna deal with FedEx again. Matt is a really cool dude and has a great selection, I've gotten probably 20 t's and a few other inverts from him over the last few months, will definitely continue to purchase from him

I purchased a juvi OBT, G. Pulchra, and 5 slings. All are very well taken care of. Amazing quality, best of all I was looking to add a few more which I hadn’t seen on the website. Once I got there I asked and he had just gotten a shipment in of what I was looking for. Haha, worked out really well for me. I’m very happy with my purchase. Got home rehoused all of them and fed them. All of them ate. Very healthy T’s. I found a local legit seller that I will be going to from now on. Thank you

I ordered a male Phidippus regius for a friend to breed with their female, along with a few Acanthoscurria geniculata slings to gift to people. Matt emailed me asking my preferences for delivery (roommate works from home so home delivery was fine). The shipping was nice and tight and the inside of the box was nice and chilly (better than being too hot). I really am impressed with The Spider Room! Will be ordering again!

Purchased a 1/4-1/2" Nhandu Chromatus, 1/2"-3/4" Cyriopagopus sp. Hati Hati and a 1/2" Psalmopoeus Cambridgei originally during their 35% off sale. Matt communicated with me about shipping dates and if I wanted them shipped to my address or nearby pick-up location which I appreciated. Then last minute, an hour before their sale ends, I email him about adding in a Latrodectus Hesperus sling, and instead of just taking the sale, he explained I probably wanted a Sub-Adult because of having to deal with flightless fruit flies and let me add a Sub-Adult female in to my order last minute WITH the 35% off. Great guy who also didn't hesitate about giving me advice on the Latrodectus Hesperus. All my species arrived safely and alive, were labeled appropriately and looked nice and healthy. Packaging was insulated with a cold pack. Spiders were exactly what I paid for. EXCEPT. My Psalmopoeus Cambridgei that I ordered at a 1/2" is easily an inch or bigger. Definitely appreciated that. Great experience and 10/10 will do business with them again.

I'm still pretty new to the arachnid hobby but have become obsessed with velvet spiders, and was happy to see a selection I haven't seen available yet from anyone else. I ordered 3 eresus moravicus slings. Waited till the temps were ok to ship. Everyone arrived healthy. Was a good experience, and I love how many true spiders are available on the website. Would order from here again.

2nd time ordering. Very happy with service.

I had an extremely great experience purchasing from Matt at spider room! He was extremely responsive and answered all my questions (even the dumb ones) I met up with him at a show in la and picked up my spiders to avoid shipping costs which was also a plus. I must that I’ve also had him ship spiders to me, and that was also extremely easy and well done I packaged perfectly! Extremely happy with this purchase! Will be purchasing again!

Bought a Phormictopus in the middle of a huge swath of freezing weather. Matt was great about keeping me updated on when he'd be able to safely ship, and did so as soon as it was safe. Sling arrived in great condition, was slightly larger than expected, and was extremely well packed with the heat pack working just fine. Couldn't be happier, and will definitely keep my eye on his inventory for anything else I want!

This is my second time buying from Matt and my second time being thoroughly pleased with the purchase. The first time I ordered three spiders for myself. This time around I bought just one for myself but my friend bought one as well since he had been wanting another. So I went in with him when there were species we both wanted from a dealer I had previously interacted with. Anyways, I live in Western NY and when it was time for them to be shipped out, Matt notified me we were under a winter storm warning and that it would be best to wait until the next week. I agreed, but warned it was supposed to be a good bit colder despite less precipitation. He said he would gladly ship it Wednesday for a Thursday arrival. Just a fantastic and accomodating dealer. After sending them out he said he made sure to check if the heat pack was working and wanted an update once I opened them up. Comes across as a great guy and couldn’t recommend him enough!

Finally had the opportunity to pay a visit to The Spider Room. Matt is a knowledgeable dealer with an amazing selection of invertebrates and tarantulas. His business is well kept and well organized; I would recommend him without reservations to any potential buyer.

I ordered two jumpers and a Linothele from Matt.
It was very easy to order from the Spider Room, and they were able to work with me regarding shipping.
The animals arrived packaged extremely well and all were doing well.
The heating pad was still warm and the package was insulted perfectly for the spiders.
I will definitely order from him again.

It was my 3rd visit to the Spider Room today. His shop is chock full of variety and its impossible to walk out of there w only what you planned on. So much cool stuff. If he doesnt have it, just ask, he can get it. Real nice guy. Tight, clean, professional shop. A very Trustworthy guy. Order from anywhere you cand depend on him to do right by you.
So i got a big healthy female Smithi, a few A. Bicoloratum slings and a G. Iherengi sling. All healthy n happy.

Thanx Matt

I ordered 4 spiders from Matt on Monday and I couldn't be more pleased. I lost the auratum due to shipping but Matt made it right. Would definitely order from him again.
