I don't really agree with selling potentially dangerous inverts to under-18s. If these were more common in the hobby they'd probably be DWA anyway, i for one would not be sorry to see them put on there.

Yeah I can totally understand that

Yeah, to be honest I personally think defra mate a right hash of the invert side of DWA. I think the whole thing needs revising tbh...

not that they are dangerous and the post was a joke..
what's wrong with selling inverts to under 18's?
if you are responsible, you could be 15 or 50.. age is just a number
(as paedobear once said :P )

I wasn't talking about assassin bugs I was talking about Ty's dad not letting him have a S. terrosus. Not quite the same thing.

I wouldn't even sell a Chile rose to somebody I thought was a numpty whether they were 15 or 50.

Thats fella I will have a read of that...

Also sorry if anything I have said has come across snappy/spoilt/brat like

I have one of these in a tub awaiting to be sent to a customer.

I purposely haven't got these on my website to avoid idiots buying them willy nilly. I mean I can get them but would only sell them to a select few.

It's not too bad at the mo as I'm mainly advertising on here so I already have a good idea about more of my customers.
