I’ve seen hundreds (thousands?) over the years but this one is very special… I usually have to buy off the web from the States – it’s nice to actually see what I’m buying before I buy and such good specimens too. Keep up the great job!

Every single specimen arrived in superb condition… a tribute to your amazingly effective shipping/packing procedures. Many thanks to you all involved for yet another painless purchase.
