• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Just received an order from Charles, everything went great from extremely fast e-mail responses, nice packing, fat and beautiful tarantulas. Do not hesitate to purchase from Botar!!
 
I picked up a Curly-Hair tarantula from Botar by Eights at the Tinley show, and I have to say that I couldn't be happier! I will definitely be doing business with them again. :D
 
I have done tons of business with Charles, and he is hands down the best of the best. His livestock, customer service and quality are top-notch. Plus hes one of the nicest guys out there. Can't wrong with Botar! :)
 
Just picked up several CB millipedes from botarby8s at the NARBC arlington show...not a single mite (never had that w/ millipedes, even CB's b4!) and great condition. Friend picked up a couple T's, and was thrilled w/ their condition....

I just received four centipedes from Botar, two Vietnamese, two Chinese Red Heads, and I'm very happy with the entire transaction!

I met Botar at the NARBC show in Arlington, spent a lot of time talking to him, and he was extremely patient and helpful.

I ordered the pedes when I got home from the show. Botar answered every email and phone call promptly, and with the same helpfulness and patience as in person. My critters arrived safe and sound, extremely well packaged, and active(!) and alert.

I look forward to doing business with Botar in the future!!
 
Another great transaction

I just got four Avicularia Versicolors, and another centipede from Botar (subspinipes ?).

What can I say? I wish everyone I dealt with was as professional as Botar! Communication was great! Packaging and shipping were great!

Just plain Great Customer Service all around!
