    What's the most you would pay...

    For a VERY nice male spider hatchling? I ask because I was at East Bay Vivarium today, and they had this adorable tiny spider BP... he was priced at $350, which seemed pretty steep to me. They said "you pay for quality," and I know they have really well-bred snakes - but isn't that kinda high anyway? I'm too broke regardless, but was just curious since I'll be getting one eventually.

    Well, the Spider at one of my local reptile stores was the same price. Though, I can purchase one fat a reptile expo for a hundred dollars less than that.. maybe even lesser than that. If the Spider has beautiful coloration, has no sickness or parasites, and is nicely rounded, I would say that's a fair price.

    I've mostly seen them for around $250, but just noticed 8Ball charges $350 for a male hatchling... so I guess it isn't that high for a good one!

    Re: What's the most you would pay...

    I've seen spider males at $300 average so 350 isn't that unusual. I think that's the maximum I would go though.

    Re: What's the most you would pay...

    Honestly, for a VERY nice one that I liked very much, probably pay what theyre asking, and from what Ive seen thats anywhere from 300-400.

    Thanks for the responses... wish I had taken a picture, but alas I did not. He was pretty smokin', though - very light color, clean pattern, and only one tiny spot. Super cute!
