I don't know where else to post this - but I'm curious where I can get some affordable inverts from online dealers?
Nowhere from where I live in has any exotic pet stores with much variety... Although a University 30 minutes away has an amazing insect zoo, which I bought an LP for only $10 as a 1.5" or so, which is better than buying online!

I only know of Jamie who sells things pretty cheap with a really good shipping price of $15, with LAG.
I was thinking about Ken, but his shipping was like $20+ with LAG.

Any sellers on AB I should talk to?

I'm assuming that you've visited the dealer review page? http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/forumdisplay.php?8-Online-Dealer-Reviews

There are a ton of reputable dealers there, as evidenced by page upon page of positive reviews. If the cost of shipping is really an issue, Jamie's $17 with LAG is fantastic. I've ordered a ton from her, and I'm been completely satisfied. However, if you're looking for species she doesn't carry, or for a different variety, check out Kens, Swifts, Pet Center USA, Net-bug, or any of the other highly-reviewed dealers listed in the Online Dealer Review section.

Remember that you're shipping live animals, so shipping is always going to be a bit pricey. Some of the dealers with higher shipping costs, might also have a better variety of animals or better prices on something you want. It balances out. :)

Shipping is always a different variable between each dealer. The Dealer Reviews is the best place to look and then from there investigate each on their own. I have used 3 different dealers so far and they've all been pretty good about everything. Really what determines who I buy from is based on the Reviews forum and stock availability. I already know they're good from the reviews.

Aside from the Dealer Review page, as mentioned above, you can check out the classifieds section. You can also post a WTB (want to buy) ad.

However, we do not allow the discussions of sellers/dealers in the information section. That is what the review threads are for. ;)
