buying Malaysian mantids

[mantidsandgeckos]

Maybe you can buy orchid mantids or other mantids from www.reptilesmalaysia.com.They told me that they ship international.But they are not replying to me now... <_< <_< <_<

you have to be patient with sites like that

They have an address in the website. Since you are in Malaysia, why not just drive up to Bukit Damansara and check them out. If they are not like what they claim ....... you can be sure not to get anything from them.

if you're in the USA it makes more sense to get them from mantisplace.com, right?

Sometimes buying in a place where they are more common they are cheaper. 33$ each for a orchid mantis is quite high but its part of the supply and demand economy.

I'm actually a lot more interested in oothecae than mantises. If I get some, I want to get a whole lot.

They also have theopropus .I think you have to email them to buy things from them.

malaysia isnt really the smallest country eh

From the southern tip of Malaysia to the northern tip of Malaysia is about 8-9 hours driving (not too bad). from east to west, 2-3 hours to the central and the due to underdevelopment in the west of Peninsular malaysia, it takes another 5-6 hours.

However, it will be way longers to travel in the Borneo side of Malaysia, may takes days from one tip to the other end. Not that small actually.

One of the smallest country is Singapore.................. a tiny tiny island south of peninsular Malaysia. Round trip of Singapore is only 4-5 hours I think

So did anyone find out if they will sell orchid oothecae?

Why not ask by e-mail?

How do you know they are from Bukit Damansara? I checked out the website but I couldn't find the address. If its not too much trouble, can you post the address here?

I think this is a bogus website. This is becaue I tried to go to the address shown on their website but there was no such road. The address was a fake.

I found it. So if you have a problem with you order, just go right over there to demand your mantises!

And uhh, I've seen double posts, but triple posts?

Might wanna check out their Terms and Conditions too.

3. All orders that comply with the minimum order policy will be exempted from shipping and freight charges. Minimum order for any purchase is set at USD 3,000 for all countries other than the EU Eurozone. Minimum order for any purchase from the EU Eurozone is set at EUR 2,000.

I don't know if they use commas the way we use decimals but I didn't know that dollars can get precise to the thousandths.
