Your most EXPENSIVE tarantula

[InvisibleFishie]

Right now, my most expensive T is a 3" A. avicularia. I'm about 80% sure it's female and she was $40. It was a pet store, so it doesn't particularly surprise me.

BUT, as soon as I get my money, I'll be spending $80 on a Hapalopus sp. Columbia. (That includes shipping.) But that isn't too bad, considering we're getting a freebie A. hentzi along with it.

o far my most expensive would be a Bvagans at $65 because i bought him at petland! which i am never gonna do again.
too much for whats its worth and there is a reason why i call my Bvagans Waldo!!
my most expensive T online is be a GBB at $55 but

 

[HoboAustin]

The most I've spent is $30 for a .75 in P. irminia. Yea, I'm pretty cheap haha

 

[web eviction]

Through change in a jar for a month and went with a P. metallica for $130.00 it was hard spending that much on a tiny sling haha that's more then I spent on my adult female T. Stirmi......ughhh.

As of this Sunday, my only-and therefore most expensive-T is gonna be a $15 L. parahybana sling. BOOSH!

 

[SkyeSpider]

I'll limit the results and just base it off my current collection. I paid $180 for a mature female, captive born Lampropelma violaceops (Singapore blue). She was worth every penny.

All time, it might be the $600 P. metallica I purchased when they were new to the US, but I feel like I'm forgetting something else I splurged on. My forgetting says a lot about my addiction to this hobby

 

[kongekilde]

mine is iridopelma zorodes.in first molte 89 euro for 1,and got 5 ;-)
but now the prices is some thing els here in EU

 

[Marijan2]

60$ for juvenile female Pamphobeteus sp. Machalla. Worth every single cent

 

[poisoned]

The most i've given for a T is 35 euros for my MF P. irminia. I'm a bargain shopper and I like buying slings

My most worth would probably be my MF B. epicureanum, but I got it from a friend who got a girlfriend that doesn't like Ts.

my Poecilotheria metallica -Sapphire ornamental sling at 1.25 - 1.5 inch cost me -$175.00 .....I love it but I'm dying waiting for it's bright royal blue colors with a splash of yellow.

 

[Bugmom]

$85 for a ~1" M. balfouri.

 

[SuzukiSwift]

450元 for a 5" female genic, I think that's 50-60 American dollars?

Through change in a jar for a month and went with a P. metallica for $130.00 it was hard spending that much on a tiny sling haha that's more then I spent on my adult female T. Stirmi......ughhh.

thats how i saved for MY metallica too haha.
Got her (pretty certain) this last September for 80+ shipping. It was about 3/4 maybe an inch, and worth every cent i saved

On topic the most expensive ts ive paid for are
150 for a 4+" female A purpurea
100 for a MM A purpurea (included shipping)
130 for a 5" female GBB (havent technically paid YET. Getting her locally tomorrow)

There are packages that i have that cost double any of those prices, but these listed are the most paid for individual ts

 

[nikki9093]

Lol. Having a hard time remembering which was more costly.. Maybe the B. boehmei female @ $110... I know I paid over $100 for her. Then the T. ockerti was $100... So was the female P. rufilata I just paid for...none were slings when bought. Juvies mostly.

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

I have paid $275 twice - once for a juvie female P met and once for an AF B klaasi.

 

[MarkmD]

The most I've spent on T's are pokies or general OW Sp, with my new collection, just P,regalis and P,ornata thay are £45-55 for them, mostly I buy between slings/juvies at £6-£25 so most aren't that experience.

 

[JackieFarber]

I paid $90 for a 4 inch Female Nhandu Chromatus, she is beautiful, totally worth it!!!

 

[PEIMike]

$90 for a 1 1/2 inch G. iheringi

 

[BobGrill]

GBB sling.

 

[Mello]

My $130 P. Metallica sling for sure. My crazy boyfriend bought $320 Scolopendra galapagoensis though...
