Both spiders arrived alive and on time. Unpacking & rehousing was very easy and communication throughout the whole process was great! I’m very excited about these new additions (Grammostola pulchra & Tliltocatl vagans) and look forward to watching them grow!
Received my first two tarantulas today very happy have three more coming in five days. Great customer service and communication.
Congrats on your first two, and what a fun week you’ve got ahead with three more on the way! Message us anytime while you’re settling everyone in. Enjoy the new arrivals!
Great experience and love the ease of being able to pickup in person! Staff have been very helpful and great to deal with:)
We’re so glad the pickup went smoothly! The staff will love hearing this. Enjoy the new addition!
Amazing!
Thank you, we’re thrilled you think so! Hope your new addition keeps impressing you.
No feedback or suggestions. Keep up the great work. I've gotten 4 tarantulas from you guys already and will keep coming back anytime I want to add to my collection. You have such a wide variety, with the best prices I have come across. Every one has been of very high quality also. I highly recommend y'all for all the tarantulas!
Hi Julie, thank you so much for your awesome review! We're thrilled to hear you're happy with your tarantulas and appreciate your kind words. Looking forward to your next visit!
Perfect experience all came active and thriving
Thanks so much! Hearing everyone showed up active and doing well is exactly what we hope for. Enjoy the new additions!
I have Autism and I'm 56...I love animals but got really hurt on a horse (broke my neck in 5 places and my lowers back in 2 and a hip replacement). I kinda lost intrest in animals...I got a tiny little Jumping spider...Little thing lite my fire. I am going to learn about everyTarantula. I love the the Old World spiders. I have a service dog and learned about flick hairs not good for my dog. I am happy again. Thank you for your staffs patience with me I made some mistakes ordering and your staff was so kind to me I sometime have to have my Brother help me with reading. Thanks again for giving me back fire...I lost it for a while. I'm very proud of my spiders.
Reading this was a real highlight for our whole team. It means a lot that a jumping spider helped bring that spark back, and you should be proud of your spiders. Learning about every tarantula is a great goal, and we’re always happy to answer questions along the way, so ask as often as you like. Our staff will be touched to hear how much their patience mattered to you. Welcome to the hobby, and enjoy every bit of it!
Great experience as usual! Great spiders at even better prices!!
Thanks! Good prices only matter if the spiders are worth it, so it’s nice to hear you feel you’re getting both. Glad to have you back, and enjoy the new arrivals!
Always a great experience!
Thanks, that’s great to hear! Always nice to see a familiar name come through. Hope your latest order is treating you well!
Customer service is top notch and their spiders arrived healthy and active!
Thank you! The whole team will love reading this. Enjoy the new spiders!
Super nothing but the best!
Aw, thank you! That’s about the nicest thing we could hear. We hope your new addition is doing great and giving you plenty to smile about!
The spiders I've received have been at least the advertised size, if not bigger. I've been happy with my orders and would order from them again.
We appreciate you coming back and hope the next one impresses you just as much!
I bought the aspimochilus rufus and phormingochilus sabah red bundle and both slings arrived happy and healthy. What a great deal too! I've purchased from Exotics Unlimited before and I again. Great vendor! You guys ROCK!
Thank you! That bundle is one of our favorites to put together, so it’s nice to hear both slings made it to you in good shape. Enjoy those two!
Received our 3 tarantulas today. P. Striata, Golden Bird Eater, and Panama Blonde. All three came in perfect condition ready for their new homes. Customer service has been amazing the whole time! I will definitely buy another in the future. Thank you for all the help and support!
Thank you for the kind words! That’s a fun trio to have welcomed home last night, and we’re happy all three made the trip in great shape. It was a pleasure helping you along the way, so don’t hesitate to reach out if questions come up as they settle in. Enjoy the new family!
Excellent! Well packed tarantulas, all arrived alive and well. Cant beat the shipping price. Fantastic customer service! Highly recommended!
Thanks so much! Everyone on the team works hard to get the animals to you safe and keep shipping costs fair, so it’s great to hear it all came together. We appreciate the recommendation!
Loved the enclosure hope to buy more and get my friends to buy stuff from you too. 5 starts.
Thank you for the five stars! We’re so glad the enclosure was a hit, and spreading the word to your friends is the nicest thing you could do for us. Hope to see you all soon!
Great conmunication. All tarantulas were the sizes as described and packed securely. Never had a bad experience doing business with Exotics Unlimited.
A clean record like that is something our team works hard to protect, so thank you for saying it out loud. Thanks for sticking with us, and enjoy the new additions!
This is the only place I will shop for my tarantulas. I feel very confident in their company/ work and I know their animals are incredibly healthy and well cared for.
Being the only place you shop is about the highest compliment a small team like ours can get, and we don’t take that trust lightly. The animals are the heart of what we do, so it’s rewarding to know that care is something you can feel on your end. Thank you for the loyalty, and enjoy every one of them!
Everything went great this time
Glad this order went smoothly, and thanks for coming back to us. Enjoy the new additions!
Love buying from exotics unlimited. I have made three separate purchases from them and everything had been fantastic each time. Animals arrived when they said they would, in good health, and as described. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy Tarantulas. Customer service second to none.
Three orders in and still going strong is a big compliment, and our team is grateful you keep choosing us. Consistency is what we work hardest at, so it’s great to hear it shows from one purchase to the next. We appreciate you spreading the word, and we’ll pass your kind words along to the people who handle your emails.
Ordered 14 slings from Exotics Unlimited. All arrived in good health and are doing great 2 weeks later. I greatly appreciate the team being responsive and informative with any questions or issues. They offer great deals and saved me hundreds of dollars compared to my local arachnid sellers. Will be buying from them again if/when I decide to add on to the collection!
Fourteen slings is a big order to trust us with, so thank you for that. Hearing the whole group is still thriving after two weeks is the best update we could ask for, and we’re happy the savings made a real difference for your collection. The team loves being a resource for questions big and small, so reach out anytime. Thanks for the support, and enjoy raising them!
I got the 100 mystery box and got one tarantula that was worth 100 and only got the one tarantula.....so not worth more than what I paid as advertised.......
Once again I've had nothing but great service and well packaged spiders from Exotics Unlimited. I took advantage of the Monocentropus balfouri communal special package. The 3 spiderlings arrive safe and in great condition. All 3 settled into their enclosure with no issues and they all ate later that evening. I highly recommend Exotics Unlimited to anyone wanting to purchase invertebrates.
Coming back for another round means the world to our team, so thank you for the continued trust. We appreciate the recommendation and hope the group keeps thriving for you!
Always wonderful experiences! My #1 place is look first when wanting a new tarantula!
Being the first place you check means a lot to us, and it's a spot we work hard to earn. Thank you for the loyalty, and we'll keep the new arrivals coming for you to browse!
I love shopping with EU. Not only do they show a lot of care in their spiderlings, but they also have fantastic customer service. Plus, they have rare species that I haven't been able to find anywhere else. Thank you guys!
