Mantis in Miami, Fl for SALE

[miamivette]

Please help me get rid of this Mantis before, well you know. $20.00 dollars plus shipping and he is all yours. I accept credit cards and checks. I have a high rating on Ebay. You can call me to finalize any deal. Just reply first.

Weren't you supposed to sell me a mantis? We were talking and you quit on me man. What happened?

i wouldn't be too hurt supernip.....personally i think 20 bux for the mantis he's sellin is a rip off......you could get a peacock for that much....wait around someone will be giving one away sooner or later

 

[supernip]

I know but I wanted a red mantis.... Or an orange or maybe a blue one if there is such a thing. If you can, help me out assassin! TIA:lol:

 

[silent_assassin_e99]

if you can wait im sure you can find someone giving one away, or if you cant....tampabaysaltwater.com sells the same species i think miami is selling.....neogondylactus wennerae for 8.95 plus shipping.....they vary in color, and can change color when they molt......so you mighta paid 20 bux for a red one and then have it go into a molt and come out brown...

Sorry Supernip

I went away on vacation and stayed longer than planned. Thank god for tank babysitters. If you can find one cheaper more power to you. I don't want to "RIP YOU OFF" like ***-a-sin said. Let me know.

 

[supernip]

Can you post of some pictures? or can you show me that it doesnt molt and change colors? I would really like a red/orange/yellow one. I have a tank set up and everything. Thanks

I think your remark about silent assassin was totally uncalled 4. From what i understand the meaning 4 this board is 2 give ppl advice and suggestions. Assassin was simply trying 2 help a person out. NOT trying 2 be "a ***** ***" as u put it. 2 be honest i wouldnt do business with u even if u were giving the mantis away for free and paying 4 the shipping. i think maybe u should learn 2 conduct yourself in a better manner.and taking advantage of ppl that r new 2 this hobby is totally wrong do u not have morals?

ok heres where i say, "lets not let things get out of control, so just let it go and be the bigger person".. then you say "ok" and do just that. an argument over a mantis shrimp is pointless..

ok drew i totally agree with u i just wanted 2 state my opinion on what was posted i wasnt even gonna say anything further about it and u r right its pointless

LOL! It's only a rip off if you're not willing to pay it. Even a free one costs me a fortune to ship it to this little town. And I certainly can't get any kind for less than $20.

 

[supernip]

calm down guys.... I'm fine, thanks for asking too. I havent bought it yet cause it wasnt the color I wanted. Looked green to me. I think I can always wait on it or buy some harlequin shrimps. I really like mantis shrimps though but yeah 20+shipping is a lot.
