Hi congrats on the new arrivals.
I have not seen gimps advertised on there.
Did you just order mystery box and they send them out or you contacted them about it first.
I wish I had the space to be able to order mystery boxes myself.lol
Regards Konstantin

Every so often they have a box of mystery gimp for 60 pound on the specials page but they go quick, I asked if I brought a 30 pound mystery box could I have gimps. They are well worth the money you can see their perfectly healthy spiders and after a molt or two they will have their legs back :) and its good to watch them grow their legs back.

Thanks for that info! :) I also wondered as I had never seen a £30 gimp box on there either.

The £60 gimp box on the specials seems to have appeared again currently if anyone was interested :)

usually under the 'special offers' sub menu rather then the usual slings, juvies, adults categories.

Thank you so much for that. I have just ordered one. My last box was brilliant & I am looking forward to opening my second. My last box contained a M balfouri, a A Seemanni, an Avic Avic & an LP. All were sub adult. 2 turned out to be male, 2 female. so for £70, I got a great collection.

I have just got into trouble for it. We already have more than we need. Space is running out & we have some that are starting to need larger enclosures. But they were gimps, how could I not.
But we brought a new shelf unit a few months ago & that is already full.

All will be forgiven I'm sure :D early Christmas present to yourselves...
I know you have a few large Ts but it's so easy to get carried away :)

If anyone says you have too many Ts. Get rid of them, you don't need that negativity in your life. That's what happened to wife #2

The Spider Shop also have this covered on their FAQ page ahaha ;)

I love too that they have Operation Racoon as a delivery option, presumably for if you have the above problem. Your partner might start getting suspicious if you 'win' too many spider competitions though... :p
