How much to pay?

Post by lisa23 »

Hi

Is £180 a reasonable price to pay for six L260 Queen arabesques in uk.



Short arms and deep pockets :lol:

I think that is a little steep £30 each, if they are from your LFS then I would expect, no ask for a good discount taking 6.

They are not from my local LFS but Doncaster.I've never dealt with them before.
They are bringing them to hull free of charge as i don't drive so can't fetch them
myself.

They were £35 each but because I am getting six they dropped them to £30.
I am also getting three L081 Golden nuggets at £18 each.

What say you. :?:

Hi Lisa,

That's pretty much the same price as I pay from tropicalfish.org. L260 - £27.50 although they may give a discount on that as you're getting 6. L081 - £18.75. Their shipping is £10 for up to 20kg to anywahere in mainland UK.

Have you ordered yours yet? I am waiting for my L134 to arrive on Thursday, can't wait!!

Hi!

Well it can be a good price for full grown and if there are 2-3 males for 4-3 females...
Otherwise I think it is a bit excessive, especially if bred juvenils.
I have paid 25 euros per L260...
Cheers
