When you buy your King Tiger, also buy some frozen bloodworms or live blackworms...

@Sakal, i have sold my L260...but feel free to contact me whenever you will be hedding my way

I thought you already bought some other plecs from this guy with the Zebra's. If I was that close to him I would just swing by and check them out before I bid. I would drive halfway across the states for wild caught zebras :!:

Yes, i did buy L333 from Kadriye, and also he offered some small L46 ...

Laurab5,
Please don't bid on that auction. Notice that it originates in Germany and the seller has 0/0 feedback. There are frequenters of this forum who have been badly burned by this exact set-up before. Write me if you want some babies.

I agree with Janne, probably really nice looking L333...
