not really. If you're buying from a viv builder they're not putting shop mark up on them.

I would still suggest Homes4reptiles, they are the same price as swell reptiles, but they have a bigger range and choice and free next day delivery, I ordered mine yesterday morning and they have just arrived!!!

The owner gives excellent customer service, you feel like your order is important to him, not just that your another pain in the a##e customer.

The 2 foot is only £34.99, ideal for Gecko's, and the 3 foot is £48.99!!!

Have a peep at my viv prices - just look on the drop down menus on my signature at the bottom of this post.

May not be the "cheapest" around but beats most shop quotes.

Cheers

Sorry, I don't want to start a row or anything but I actually couldn't agree LESS if I tried.

The vivs I build are much better quality, stronger and sturdier than 99% of shop bought vivs and yet I can sell mine for less than half the price sometimes.

I don't have the overheads to pay and wages to staff like a shop does. That's why they charge way over the odds and NOT because thier vivs are better.

I actually supply a few shops with vivs and I am shocked to see the prices that they re-sell them at. One local shop ( naming no names ) actually sells 6x2x2 vivs with hard board backs for £350 where as I can sell 6x2x2 with SOLID backs for £175.

I know how you're thinking with regards to higher prices meaning higher/better quality but that isn't the case I'm afraid.

Best regards,

Volly
