Your Expensive pet shops !

Yeah I wanted the 2” seemani but last one I got there got sick and died and was male . Then again this one could be healthier but never know. I searched online any shops with possible Ts were too far away . Probably best to ..

Every bigger spider I e gotten “indexed” has been males too and u k ow they know when they house them. lol I’m a sucker

It was set up rather poorly I couldn’t say it was 1.5 inch or larger . It was hiding under a log . I may go back and see if it’s still there but I probably shouldn’t.

I wonder if they would let u see if it’s male or female? Then it might b worth it? lol not indexed unsexed

I saw the ventral side of that curly hair but not the seemani which was hiding .🫣 I don’t know if I could pinch grab it or not or get it to stand on the glass: which could be risky.

The exotic pet store I go to for cork bark and the occasional "insert weird arachnid here". I got my Centruroides margaritatus there and my Thelyphonus manilanus. Adult C marg $70 and T man $60. The thing is the prices are low enough that buying them can be reasonable depending on the species. I typically order from breeders, they have the best prices and quality.

Yeah that’s the thing I know no breeders around here to avoid massive shipping costs . I’m probably just going to save up and keep looking for a job I can’t get anything good right now . Do you also think that 2” seemani might be another male like last one I bought ?
This is a very shady pet store…
I could probably get them 10x cheaper .

IMHO, save money now and just order online when you have the cash. Ordering online is way better, better prices and way more choices.

K $50 is a lot for a seemani I’ve seen them $10’online occasionally but shipping is $50 + .. I just wanted to check if it was under 2 inches. It was too hot this week for priority shipping.

I went back and asked thrixopelma cyaneolum was available at .5 for $30 more then the seemani. Another rip off ? Same price as online most sites.

My parents won’t let me order anymore spiders online. I recently lost an lp now I’m deciding if I should go to this shop and see if they got anything I can fill it’s cage with Before they notice.

lol those prices pale in comparison to my local, they had a 1.5” 0.0.1 G. Pulchripes for 169$ and 0.0.1 C. Versicolor 1.5” for 119$

Lucky duck! Everything I order has to come in the mail. Just got a beautiful P. Victori that way though

My local pet shop doesn't sell tarantulas but they do sell tubs of feeder insects that are almost all dying/dead -.- so... actually glad they don't have any other invertebrates.

Mine rarely has anything under 3” that’s why I don’t like buying from them. So far I’ve gotten only 2 healthy Ts and 3 that died within a month of purchase. And one I returned it was so sick.

pet Supplies plus here always has sickly feeders like superworms but there mealworms are a lot cheaper then my next closest shops. Although a lot are often dead.
