Had bet money...I would've won! Good to see you're still around, buddy!

 

[Arachno32]

Acanthoscurria! Highly underrated genus

 

[Cemykay]

Avicularia, harpactira

 

[spideyspinneret78]

Acanthoscurria! Highly underrated genus

I agree. There are a lot of species in this genus that are great spiders, but hardly anyone has heard of them it seems.

 

[RezonantVoid]

Chilobrachys or Typhoclaena. With the latter, it's not just seladonia that looks pretty

 

[LD50]

Ceratogyrus or Cyriopagopus, leaning more towards Cyriopagopus.

 

[linkinparahybana]

Poecilotheria, psalmopoeus or nhandu

 

[MintyWood826]

I'm very interested in the Nhandu genus.

Agree. In the UK you don't see anything other than genics for sale 99.9% of the time

as much as I love Aphonopelma and Poecilotheria if I was going to collect one genus it would probably be Brachypelma. Too many of the Aphonopelma and Poecilotheria look too similar to really warrant having them all. In all honesty I kind of feel the same about Brachypelma, I am in no mad rush to close it out with a Smithi, Klassi and Baumgarteni

 

[RevS]

Harpactira and Phormictopus - bacause I love those.

Also.

Lasiodora - I also love those, would like to see more of the species other than parahybana being regularly sold and I'd really want to have the opportunity to see multiple species next to each other.

 

[Kibosh]

Aphonopelma so I will never finish lol

 

[Matts inverts]

Gramostola, I love Chaco golden knees

 

[rosenkrieger]

I would have to go with Poecilotheria or Grammostola

 

[Craig73]

Psalmopoeus hands down for me. And I REALLY really wish people would stop touting how awesome P. cambridgi are, you are not helping me hold out on getting one. I have left it out of the collections in hopes it would be my last stand for adding for a long time, not counting any unforeseen casualty replacements.
