this is not the whole list available but its a start some prices have changed since this was posted.

thanks for that, ill have to beat those prices when i bring my plecos in.

its not hard to beat them if you dont have to put a markup on like the pet shops do

i can get L47 for $50NZD each and could sell for $100 and thats for a small one, but if i got a 7'' for $125 i could sell for around $400 easy, and still beating LFS prices. But i nead to make $3k:o on this import so i can afford L46

u'll have to do better than that there is an magnums [around 7cm]for around $80 at Jansens. u wont get many buyers thats willing to pay $400 for L047s about a year ago hollywood had L046 at $500? and none got sold.

but that's at his standard rate, if I make a large order I could get them for $10-15USD each, and then sell them for $70 but I do not know. ill have to see about prices once I have got my order in.

if they have them ill still have them :lol: :lol: $500 is nothing! $400USD each but they are WC.

if they have them ill still have them :lol: :lol: $500 is nothing!

last i heard of them yes they still have them but just not offered to the public as once they found out there was a 2 year waiting list [which i believe they are on] to get anymore they decided to keep for them self. [just looking back that was May 2005 so its only another 9 month?? before they get more ]

why not give them a call and make an offer they couldnt refuse

for 2 L46 id give them 1.5k, but they will never give them up.

u'll never know they were willing to sell at $600 each no reason why they wont now for that price. they had their go at breeding them which i guess didn't go very well :lol:

give them a call let us know how it goes.

can I have their number? also what are the sex? no wonder if they are both male!

look em up in the ph book under HFF i spose? which one had em fishboi? all 3?

here are their details [click on the link]. mt Roskill had them but not sure on the gender but they had 3 not 2.

should I speak to shop owner? or just the store manager?

i am sure they'll pass the phone to whoever can make that decision on selling them buddy
