I got a great bargain last week from a friend, its a biggs either is going in Tangos viv or I'll be keeping holding of it until Phoenix is ready to go in a viv.

Here are 3 pics of it, what do you think of it, and how much do you think I paid for it?







Btw the silicone in the centre of it, was put there to stop insects getting inside of it. [:]

In a shop, that branch would probably have cost somewhere in the region of about 15-18 quid (guessing as I've never bought branches from shops), so if you list it as a bargain, I shall say 5 quid.

Yep Kehhlyr you were exactly right I paid just £5 for it.

It was originally bought for £25 so I think I've definitely got a bargain.

I just decided to start a business up actually doing this getting wood and preparing it for vivs. I would sell it cheap like £3 a piece. At most!

Bargain! That's a cool branch too, it looks like modern art!

£75?!? I thought £21.99 was bad enough for the branches you see in pet shops! I managed to find one for £10 that looks awesome, was chuffed but still also miffed that I effectively spent £10 on a stick!!

Not as bad as the branches you get for miniature train sets. Was in HobbyCraft today and they're charging £4.99 for a bag of sticks that have been selected as they look like miniature fallen trees!! Now thats where theres an easy business!
