    I need input from someone with an eye for womas

    this CL ad is either the best deal ever or a load of..... he claims it is a hidden gene woma spider, but the pattern isn't busy enough. it just doesn't look like anything more than a reduced pattern spider.

    No thats just a spider with a reduced pattern. $200 for a male spider that size isnt a terrible deal though. I would offer $150 and see what he comes back at you with. (If you want a male spider that is).

    This is a hidden gene woma spider:

    Plus, if it were actually a HGW, the person would know that they go for what, 4K+? And with a snake like that, nobody is going to take that loss, no matter how uninterested they are.

    It's not the first time I've seen this. People try to sell snakes and hear "hidden gene" and assume its hidden lol so they try to convince people it is.. Like people trying to pass off fake hets.
