Prices

Did spiders really drop to under 200?

Im sure u can find them that cheap

I see them all the time for 150.

Seems like yesterday when they were 3-400....

Even for females????!!!!

Expect to pay a little more for a really nice one.;)

Yes females about 175...

Yeah they are under 200 for sure. I paid 150 for a really nice male, but I've seen pretty nice females for 175.

Now is that for a hatchling or not. I can see Hatchlings goin for that amount. OP Remember that size and quality are going to come into play

I got my male spider for $200 up here in Canada! They go for $250-$300 here!

Just had a guy drop from 200 to 100 with no bartering even attempted...a gorgeous male...pretty crazy

In my SHORT time in the hobby, I've already watched pieds begin to drop, definitely pins, spiders, and mojaves. Time is not friendly to breeders it seems...but great for guys like me who are more just pet owners (for now)

I haven't seen them that cheap. Sean at EBN had one for over $200 this past weekend at the new orleans show and it sold before I could make up my mind to pull the trigger...

I've seen a bunch of people right on the 'front edge' of the hatching season offering animals at prices I really think are WAY too low. I just have to wonder why...perhaps they're just that strapped for cash?

I don't think that's a solid indicator of this year's market--it definitely shouldn't be. Sales are likely to be slow the way they were last year, but it shouldn't be necessary to drop prices THAT much. (They might even go up towards the end of the season, for once--it's not as bad economically as it was last year).

My guess is...some people are going to price crash, some will assume a drop, and some are going to hold out, and then sell out with smug looks on their faces before Christmas.
