That I agree with,but that happens due to inexperienced wild caught collectors. They all want the extra $$$,so they collect any available specimen hoping it is a new one. When arriving at store or supplier level,just to find out it is a known species. It is a vicious chain that won't be broken soon,we can just hope someday it will and what adds to it which two tarantulas are given a lot as beginner specimens ? Avicularia Avicularia and G.Roses.
