Oh man that really sucks......... Maybe the seller did not know any better. Hope it was resolved and you get a new T. Poor fellow...:8o That can not be a good way to die.

DARN! What crud! If that little gal were packed HALF of the way the sling (A. azuraklassi) I got was, it would still be alive.

Sorry this happened to you. Hope you clear things up with the seller quickly. I don't know that I would want a "replacement" per se. You'd hate to have this done to another little one (or BIG one for that matter).

Good luck to you.

remedy is he will purchase another one from a reputable dealer and have it shipped to me directly from them.
I cant seem to find the link to the packing thread, did it get moved or renamed or what?

Aww, man... That's just AWFUL, the poor thing!! The person who packed that T ought to be bloody ashamed of themselves :evil: So sorry to hear about your loss! :( I sure hope you can get a new tarantula!

Well, that's the way to do it... rather than make him/her pack or TRY to pack a T the right way. Glad you were able to get the situation resolved.

I'm sure that most of us are interested in who NOT to order from... but we'll look for that information in the appropriate reviews section.

Wow... Good for you. You're the better person for it AND you've probably helped another person how to be a good T supplier.

Congrats to you! :clap: :clap: :clap:

And I was dead. That'd make me smell worse.

But seriously, that sucks. I can only imagine being excited to get a package only to find that.
