About Reptile City. I ordered two P. Antinous from these people as advertised on their website. I paid for them via
credit card. Each time I called them they would tell me that they would have my oder the following week. It has now been 5 weeks and no tarantulas.

I can't really comment about the financial side, I will say I have read about that business and none of what I read was good.

For future reference, I would only buy from sellers who specialize in tarantulas like palp friction or members of the forum such as @Casey K.

Lmao!! I should have no problem selling mine! Their prices are RIDICULOUS! I actually think they are linked to backwater somehow, though I'm not certain. Stock pretty much looks the same and they deal with reptiles and arachnids. I'd look at similarities between companies and check reviews prior to purchasing from anyone suspicious (including online vendors).

I ordered from them awhile back with no issues. They are out of NYC?

Reptile City buys a majority of their tarantulas from Strictly Reptiles for less than half their selling price! Their prices are ridiculous for sure!
