Agree. Most of my LFS here carries congicus. I'm sure if you talked to your LFS owner, he could have some imported
Nope no LFS owners or large chains can get any rare type polys. At least nowhere in Ohio or other surrounding areas. It took me a year of asking and bugging LFS about them and finnally got a endi X ansorgi. Those are super rare here in Ohio and probably midwest. Sens, Dels(rarely) and Ornates are about it as far a bichirs go. Rehoboth is an option but its hard to get ahold of them, I call and they say "i'll call you back" and never do and you have to bug them and you get ahold of them and you get a "I don't really care about you at the moment" attitude. Plus you have to pay expensive shipping fees and take the chance of DOAs ect.

I would say Congis are very rare here in Ohio, but maybe not Japan or other locations.


Its no uncommon to see 2" Sens going for $15-$30. Dels around 2.5" go for about $50-60, and I've seen price of $89.99 for a 4" ornate.
