  • £5 Bargain or Bust?

    At the show on Sunday I bought an A seemani for a fiver.

    Now I may just be over concerned, but surely they should cost more than that?

    It's 3 1/2 inch, so I know it's not a mature male..





    I have probably just had a good bargain, but I can't help wondering. Either way it's a beautiful specimen.

      Hi Kain,
      I wouldn't worry about it. Last year they were selling sub-adult Poecilotheria females at £22! Enjoy your bargain and remember next year there will be more!!!!

        Thats a cracking bargain. There where some real bargains to be had on the day, my AF P. regalis was marked at £30 and he let me have it for £25!!! with 3 free slings....

            Kain, the place was like "bargains R us".

            Surplus stock to these sellers can be a chance of a life time to some buyers.

                When I first picked it up I was like 'Wow what markings, and the size!!!' It wasnt till we were heading back to the car and she stretched out a bit!!! She is double the size I originally thought! Its only when she comes out at night on the prowl I get to see her properly, but I am chuffed I bought another Pokie!!!!

                  Nice one, mine cost £3.50 as a 1cm sling... David Dickison would most definately be proud...
                  All those legs and not a pair of shoes in sight... Nice tarsus tho...

                    Hi Kain

                    That a seriously nice T. and a bargain too. Might have to keep my eyes open for one of those

                    How the G.Rosea still acting up. The one in my local pet shop is still odd in fact it bit the owner today, mind you I did tell him not to pick it up, but he did .

                      If the shop keeper does everyting opposite to what you tell him......

                      Tell him not to sell it to you for a fiver !!!!

                      seems like it would be better off in your care !!!!
