Hello, I was wondering if anyone was selling Euratoscelus pachypus slings and roughly how much are they running? Thank you :)

These are not available in the states. I know of two people in the whole country that have an adult female. There are no males and likely these are not going to be available in the hobby for quite some time if ever.

Interesting actually because I just googled this Tarantulas species for sale and found two websites that sell these Tarantulas.

They must be available in the states because a small amount of males that appeared in Europe (extremely rare in Europe also) have recently been sold to American buyers for $1000's of dollars.
I've tried to get hold of males for ourselves but impossible when this kind of buying power is in place.
The search goes on for us but I would imagine that perhaps some slings will appear stateside some point in the bear future.

I think I know which sites you are referring to and I believe those are just really old listings. About eight years ago they seemed to be fairly plentiful, but the supply has dried up.

I doubt slings will appear in price lists anywhere even if males indeed made it here. An AF or two is a small possibility, but due to the difficulties many have had breeding E. pachypus, the chances of winning the lottery is more likely than slings becoming available even in the distant future.

The lottery is just a tax for the mathematically challenged
