There's a shop that is not all that local, about an hour away that just got in a 7" "Palmus" (from googling I think they misspelled "Palmas"? I emailed them and asked how much and it's $60

I'm not familiar with that species. Is that a common species or less common than something like del's & Sen's? And is $60 a good price for 7" one? It's about an hour from me so not sure I want to drive 2 hr round trip for something like that unless its a smoking deal or a rare species.

much less common than a del or sen and personally I'd pay $60 for a 7" palmas however a lot of times polli are sold as palmas. I've been looking for a palmas myself. If it is a polli I'd say it's a little high but not much. Either way I'd grab it

It’s a good price for the size.
