depends o the species you mean many of the cordylus and jus referred to as armadillo lizards but arentthe most common being cordylus tropidosternum(dwarf sungazers i have just written a care sheet for them)

the scientific name for true armadillo lizards is cordylus cataphracus i think these are very rare and if you found one you would need a deep pocket

thats a pretty impressive price considering the cordylus giganteus are like £2000 and i think they arent even as rare as the armadillo lizards (cordylus cataphracus) you sure it wernt sumin like the jonesi or summin else
