Will, I reread your post.

I assured you what would not happen? You claimed in a previous inept post that you heard spiders were $15,000.00 ish for pairs, the market was crashing because there was so many out there. This I did state was not happening. I never stated that I was not going to start adjusting the price. Selling females seems like a reasonable first step at bringing spiders to market. They breed at 18 months, they can be mixed with other morphs, they create things like the bumble bee spiders. They offer so much, how can the market be crashing? I produce enough to have a breeding colony and something to sell, I do not MASS PRODUCE much of anything. I find this to be distracting, my first objective is trying to create new things, this is where my fascination remains focused. This price does not reflect that I have infinite numbers, it reflects reality. if there are so many spiders out there then why have you just started seeing one for sale, why are there not others selling them all over? Simple fact, there is not alot of spiders out there, we are not even sure about super spiders. I have bred spider to spider and produced spiders and normals. Did I miss? I have done it again this year, we should solve this puzzle. I have the type of luck that defies the odds, and it always seems BAD!!! I often miss my ratios, I am the anti Ralph Davis and Pete Kahls!
Your post is full of misconceptions and untruths, you should try to think before you jump to sudden conclusions. If you would stop and think you would call me before you freak out. Pointless, your actions, nothing positive is gained to say the least. You don't seem to listen, I have been 100% truthful and you are the one that spins the tales, you need to find a better source for your information than Alex!!

Alex, please come to the front!!!

Kev NERD

: I am disturbed by the ad posted by nerd on the classifieds for a female spider webbed ball for $17,500. Why would the price drop $7500 since October of 2001? Is this because there is so many of these in existance? At this rate, will spiders be down to $10000 by the end of this year? In a phone call 4 days a go with kevin (which was prompted by my post on spider balls days a go) I was told by him that this would not happen. Now you tell me what is going on and I don't want to hear that this is just a simple market adjustment.

:
: I hope that this does not spark another phone call from one of kevin,s associates to one of my friends to have them come down a shut me up about this subject. My friend who was contacted by the associate, played me the message on saturday,he played this message for me because this offended him to know that this strong arm tactic exists in the hobby.


: In my private emale, kevin said I was shooting my own foot off. How can I do this when he is holding the gun?
