    With Craigslist u have to be careful. It's a good price but make sure its healthy and eating. It may have.something wrong or maybe they just want to get rid of it. Check it out but be wary.

    That's what I spent on my male, he is the best eater and my favorite personality out of my small bunch.

    I'll be selling an adult proven breeder for about that at a show this weekend. So $125 is right.

    It is a good price.... I wouldnt worry about it not feeding as every spider I have been around eats like a pig... I would worry about extreme wobble if anything...

    $125 is an average price for a male spider. Make sure he doesn't have any bad neurological problems when you handle him and of course check the general husbandry of the owner.

    Forgive me. I don't know what "wobble" means. As for neurological problems, like what? I didn't even realize these could be concerns.

    Spiders can be a bit...derpy. It looks sort of like IBD, but it's just a weird quirk in the Spider gene. I think it's cute, but that's just me.

    there are lots of videos on the spider wobble on youtube and you can search this forum and find alot about it... Yes it is a neurological problem, every spider has it to some extent some hardly show it, some well it can get bad..... Being your local to the seller watch a feeding, and watch for a trembling or unsteadiness before the strike..... If it wobbles to and extent feeding time will show

    That video was a fairly extreme example, but all spiders wobble to some extent.
