Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone knows if the Banded Knob-tailed Gecko (Nephrurus wheeleri wheeleri) is on licence and if so, how much do they go for? Know any breeders?
Thanks heaps

Strange. | Tell me about it!!
The further I got in the 'negotiation'  process the more expensive they got  ... You think once you give swap details for an export permit that the price is agreed on=> WRONG!! ooops, seems someone else now wants 'em for $1000 more..... "but they are still yours if you can step up".... I think the price of these gex went up by $1500 to $2000...
I can wait for Wheeleri  |

Well it's not like the guy who marketted them is well known for being an honest, trustworthy person or anything. Other people have them, they will be on the market sooner or later...best to deal with people who wouldn't rob their own mother for a dollar.
