Hi might have a problem

I recently went to a t show and came away with a few slings hear is what I bought

Rusty red Baboon sp
HYSTEROCRATES CAMEROON

ORPHNAECUS SP BLUE PANAY

Pumpkin Patch
HAPALOPUS sp COLUMBIA LARGE

Venezuela Sun Tiger
PSAIMOPOEUS IMINIA

LAMPROPELMA NIGERRIMUM

HUNTSMAN

All very good so far I regularly check them to make sure all is well and it has been up until to day that is. To day on checking my stock I realised that I had not seen the
ORPHNAECUS SP BLUE PANAY not for a couple of days now. So I striped out its home and he was not there he has gone? ??? I have searched high and low I have had all its bedding out. So I start to think and remember that I put his pot that he came in I my waist bag I hand up I put rubbish in it, so I searched the bin bag and I found a spider in an egg carton it has made a we small web using bits of bedding coconut fibres it seems a little slow for a house spider anyway I took a photo hoping one of you could tell me if this is the escapee or just an innocent house spider.

difficult to explain, but the size of the chilecerae suggests tarantula, a "true spider" has a different structure.
