Many thanks to Orion of @spidersworld.eu for making my day. I've always been tempted but never ordered a Mystery Box but as I wanted a Neostenotarsus sp Suriname I thought I'd go for it ordering an advanced box (£11.11). Orion excelled himself by sending me a Hysterocrates laticeps and to my joy having recently lost my Peanut to a very bad moult, a Stromatopelma calceatum. :D:D:D
Superb packaging as always and their heat pad was still warm plus they had travelled in a nice warm van for the 2 days it took them to get here.

Nice new additions Ennie, looks like you made out pretty well, I've always wondered about those mystery boxes, if they're really worth it or not. In your case, looks like it was definitely worth it:D

The N. sp Suriname wasn't in the Mystery Box, I bought that separately, but the other 2 were definitely worth it moneywise with the added element of surprise and the joy of getting another S.calc. having just lost my other hairy legged friend :D

Oo, the wait is over! Nice additions. I'm happy to hear that you got a new S. calc. so the amount of hairy legs is no longer too small :D
