Alright boys and girls time to get yourself a pimped out shell for your hermit crab hahaha. Check out the website, looking to place an order for 5-10 shells. I have contacted the seller and for 10 shells under 1.5'' the shipping and handling charges would be $20, that means if we can get an order of 10 shells together we would only have a $2 shipping charge per shell. If we have done business in the past lol fell free to post on the thread the desired shell and amount, if we have never crossed paths please contact me prior, do not wanna place a large order and have a bunch of no shows considering the price of the shells.

yes considering they are all handmade, and then if you can actually get a hermit to use it, it would be wicked cool

what keeps them from being covered in coraline algae after a few weeks?

may need a manual scrub now and then lol we will see how it goes if we can get this order together. I have spent more money on several items I have never really used so whats another 17 bucks, kinda like a cheap coral and will be pretty cool if someone actually calls it home

Any word on where we stand on this order.  no rush...just wondering.
Thanks

Malyon18

I emailed the lady a couple weeks back but got no response on the cost of shipping three shells, the first time i emailed her it took a while to get a response as well. I will fire her off an email this evening and see what the deal is, I am still very interested in getting one just have to setup the shiping and what not, I will keep you posted.

Alright so shipping will be 10 bucks for 3 shells, the only thing that I am hoping to dodge is duties when it comes across the border but for the size of the package we may just slip through :). So if you guys are cool with that I will put in the order for 3 shells, let me know.
