I have just been informed that there are some OBT's doing the rounds again in Gauteng.
They have been sold in a number of petshops in the Krugersdorp, Roodepoort area and possibly the rest of Gauteng.
They are being sold as Brazilian Black and White's.
The spider itself is a brown spider with an orange abdomen, probably around 1cm. they are being sold in small clear plastic containers with red lids.

Please don't shoot yourself in the foot and buy one of these just to be caught with it later or have to try get rid of it.

You have been warned.

Name and shame said petshops and/or breeders.

It's our responsibility to look after the hobby people.

Yip alot of sharks out there!

Ive sold some spiderlings to people, when i look again they selling it as something else!

Eg: i sold a guy a bunch of L difficilis and i cought him reselling them as B smithi!
& he was telling everyone that the smithi's came from me!

Its also happened on another occasion where a pet stor bought curlies from me
and sold them as red legs!

Then they say 'O no its a mix up!' Ha whatever!

So please be carefull with that aswell!

To add to this:
A petshop in KZN Hillcrest area is also selling some Pterinochilus murinus's in clear plastic containers. These are better labelled than those that Cerat mentions (Mombassa Golden Starburst) but I don't believe the people at this petshop know what they selling.

Most of the shops and other sellers of them know exactly what they doing! they do anything for a quick buck! idiots
