I plan on going Sunday... Lots of local vendors are going to be setup there
I'm going Saturday... Better deals on Sunday though
Did you get anything?!
I got 2 Amazon Milks and a Vietnamese Mossy
Oh and some rollies and spring tails, almond leaves, petri dishes, coconut honeymoon houses, plants and a bunch of mantis' and tarantulas...Totally blew right through my budget
How many different Dart Frog vendors were there ?
Reptiles Etcetera from kansas had a lot of stuff.
5 is not too shabby. Reptiles etcetera - all the way from Kansas to CA....interesting.

Taron seems to be at lots of the reptile shows here in SoCal...
Yeah, he'll be at Anaheim in Sept. I'm gonna pick up 'who knows what' then. Probably another V. Mossy frog. and a misc dart
Did you see the oophaga sylvatica "Lita" on the table? First time I've seen one in person!
Was that the one that was like 2000. ?
I saw my first toad headed agama!

Yup

Yessir! For 2 (assuming a pair).
That's fucked up. Talk about 'strip mining" the hobby.
Someone...PLEASE get me a pic of these $2000.00 frogs so I can start a proper thread here on them.

I knew I should have snapped a cell phone photo...
If I went to a show and bought a $2000 frog, I'd want to be able to drive home in it.
I was at the Chicago Repticon July 28, and bought some Azureus froglets and supplies from Reptiles Etc. Taron said his business is primarily shows now, he does shows all over the country every weekend. He had some gorgeous frogs! I made a comment about how stressful that must be on the frogs, being on the road constantly, and he said it is. (Obviously!) He must have a huge set up, cause he said he makes 100 ff cultures per week. I'm sure he sells some, but still, that's a lot of ff's! I had never seen black jeans in person, he had a beautiful proven pair. Stan, my fiancee, fell in love with them, but definitely out of my budget!
I want to know what gorgeous, amazing, other good terms mean. At the last Vegas show RE frogs looked ok at best.
There were sylvatica.. ok at best, I felt one group looked kind scarred up..but I have not really seen that sp.of frog or a lot of scars for that matter . One sick Histo, one frog with toe stuck in lid. The prices were not marked and so it makes it pretty easy to undersell other vendors. I really think small prices on the more common frogs and a whole lot of charm, and even perhaps a genuine "passion for PDFs" makes this vendor a force.
