I was fortunate enough to get a male and female chinese box (cuora flavomarginata) for $30 each. If you can get a Hermann's for $35-$40 go buy it now, even if you don't want it I would buy it from you for that price. Check the rear legs, as Hermann's do not have a "spur" (small pointed turbucle) on rear legs, whereas most of the other Mediterraneans do. Great price, even if it is a Russian, check carefully. They often have books there, check if they carry Pursall's book on Mediterranean tortoises (TFH pub.), as the pictures in that will allow you to identify which torts they have for sale.

Good luck, and you just might have a great deal on your hands.
