After what seemed like an eternity i finally got a P. metallica! And what a deal it was. 60€ for a sexed 10 cm (4") female with an equiped enclosure (which I'll be redoing tomorrow) And she really is a beauty.
(Sorry for the potato pic. My camera has decided to not work properly a few weeks ago)

Lucky, lucky you!
Amazing price for everything. I'd have been like "white on rice", for a deal like that.
I like my pokies, but not willing to spend the going price of a sling in the U.S. They're available year round, smallest pokie and blue, guessing thats what keeps the price high, plus add shipping costs. Last ones I bought cost $75 total, 5 P. tigrinawesseli slings @ 1.5" dls.

That seems bout rite :p. Otherwise i've seen females go from 80-180. Slings around 30 40.
You made a deal, indeed. But 'Pokies' (talking about 0.1, Theraphosidae only) aren't high priced in Europe, especially compared to the US/Canada T's price insanity.
Refused, since i'm not that into arboreals, four 0.1 'Pokie': P.metallica, P.regalis, P.ornata, P.striata for 200 Euro.
So 50 Euro for one, not bad :) but i prefer P.muticus and other OB.

Potato pic.... HAVE YOU SEEN @cold blood pics..:eek::astonished: Now that is potato pics.. sorry CB dont come after me, i will be good now.:angelic::angelic::angelic::)

Anyways congratz on the spider, nice one. :)
It's deffenetly not as clear as it should be. The camera is focused on super close so it's hard to take a pic without getting a messy blur.
And thanks :D still thrilled that i got it.

Metallicas are quite expensive :p. At least way more expensive to the other pokies round here. Got some regalis slings for 7€ each (and the dealer let me sex them and even helped doing so) a few months back.
But you gotta remember that i bought it with an enclosure so that's extra ~20€

And you had a nice deal there! Should've taken it :p

Lol! I've the patience of Jobe.
Maybe, I'm in no rush, P. metallica will always be around, baring a worldwide catastrophic event.
