depends on what you consider "crazy" for shipping.. If I'm buying a hard to find fish. and it's packed properly and arrives in good/excellent condition. I can't put a price tag on that. 20$ per fish.. 2-3 you spending approx 60$ for fish.. I've spent more then that on a single fish. Doesn't sound like you can't find them, But that your not willing to shell out for them. If after 7 months of searching hard for a particular species and I finally found it. I'de pay alot more then 20$ per animal + shipping. If you're buying wholesale. and the shipping is less 'n double the price of each animal. Your paying less then what you would from your local LFS I'm 99% sure of. Just to put things hopefully in perspective.

Hopefully you find them at a better deal.. or grab the ones you did find.

I understand where you're coming from. however, still being a student and only working around 16 hours/week .. plus paying gas and car insurance etc .. money is an issue for me. not easy to dish out a few hundred bucks. and to answer the other comment, This is the first time in 7 months i've ran into someone able to get dwarf snakeheads. it seems as though no one else i've talked to can. he had his whole stock list pre-sold besides three but as i was looking for a group buy the last three got sold. he is ordering more in in a few weeks and will let me know then. if my financies are looking up then i will debate it but still looking for someone closer to here or who can ship them maybe in a smaller box etc to cut down on the shipping.
