Default Psalmopoeus irminia

I was thinking of gettin a suntiger at some point..a sling. This is the only pokie I would consider having for myself...except a regilis.
Anyone know how much they normally go for?
Any pics/tips?

Ive looked them up a few times. I love their jet black and bright orange markings.

I would say they are more docile, slower and less likely to attack than the Psalmopoeus Cambridgei. I have both and my Psalmopoeus irminia let me hold her, where as the Psalmopoeus Cambridgei just wants to eat me. Their venom I would say is about the same, but I wouldn't want to be bitten to find out!

Hmmm... i find the irminia more pissy than the cambridgei. Only have to take the lid off my friends female and she's into threat posture for half an hour However they're stunning and grow very quick!
