Got really freaking lucky!!! Guy was selling two tarantulas when I walked in, I thought okay its going to be G.rosea or something. Well I walked out with an AF B.bohemi and a 3inch C.fasciatum both with 2.5 gallon tanks for 50 bucks! Its a good day now.

Congrats!!! What a DEAL! I wish I could stumble on a deal like that, but petco only sells rosies and avics and the only other LPS that sells Ts waaaaay over prices them. $60 for a 2" unsexed H.mac. I don't THINK so...

I need a pet store like that around here. Petco only has rosies and the other has a good selection, but a C.fimbriatus that is about 4 inches and unhappy in a critter keeper for $200, or a 3.5" cobalt blue for $125, or an Ornamental Baboon missing a digit for $80 or a 2 inch T.blondi that doesn't have the faintest look to a blondi for $150 is all a bit on the "captain insano" side. I love this pet store, but woah... This is also the same place that quoted me $125 for an exo-terra aboreal 12x12x18 tank.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I honestly didn't expect them to have any T's last time this lps had any was well over 6months ago. I just went in to see if they had any corkbark or things to use for the next order im going to get in a week or so.

Thank you. :) These are my first adult NW T's other then my G.Rosea and I never realized just how much a NW T, atleast my B.Boehmei, kicks hairs!!! I put her in the exo-terra I have, and I swear everytime she was moving kicking hairs was involved!
