Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Here is one of the spiders I posted in a group pic a couple of days ago. Then I got to hear how I should sell them quick because of price dropping. Seems to me a dead sexy critter like this little guy will have no trouble being worth 1-1.5K for quite a long time. I paid $2000 for an albino in 2003 and guess what, they are still right around $2000. Even if you paid $20K for a spider a few years ago you could still make your money back in one decent season at $1500. So where is the problem exactly? If this little guy was worth only $100 I would still be making them. For those coming in to the morphs, be patient, buy good stock, do it right and you will come out ahead. Better yet, you will have some amazing animals!
See you at the Columbia SC show this weekend!

you want the check made out to whom?

for 1 or 1.5K?......

nice

and yes...at $500 we will make money

there are always cross morphs.........

bumblebees aren't $5000 yet?......

I do want a spider this year.....and I will get one cheap.....

.I am thinking a male for about $3000 .......?.......

.........I too paid $2000 for an albino in 2002......and have made my money back and gotten albinos for myself too.......

I got het ghosts in 2002 for $1000 for 2 pair with a gift back counted.*(without it $800 for 2 pr)..and I made my money back and got ghosts too for myself...

I got pastel for $700 last year.......guess what will pay for itself this year?.........yea..........eggs....poss het green ghost pastel along with other pastel possible eggs.....

.........all profit after the $50 a year to feed them...

..add new racks......so...they pay......

I love it when prices drop.........we can afford them and the people whining will make the money faster.......so it all works out..........the more you sell the more you make.

you know what?.......the people whining about only making $200,000 or $500,000 a year?.........I wonder if they pay taxes on every nickel the government wants them to?......or do they just buy new snakes and new houses and the taxes get forgotten?.

we should all have fun and make a buck........

good luck.......I won't see you in SC this week........ship it up to Pa..............

lol... I always hear you quoting outrageously low prices for stuff. Remember... you get what you pay for... lol.

I think prices for males will hold steady and may even increase again once supplies dry up a little. If I have a male Spider that's pounding rats and growing fast the last thing I'll do is sell it for 3k. I'll post it for 4.5 to 5 k and I will get that or more before X-Mas.
