Yeah, way too steep. He has another nice one as well (or he did a few days ago anyways), which is a very nice specimen but also overpriced.

I bet they end up been sold to some hella rich dude going for a quick start to a passing hobby (or snack), who will eventually end up killing them by overwatering (or consumption)........ ok.. maybe I'm a bit jealous their not in my collection...

Come to think of it, I probably wouldn't even know what to do with that many lophs... maybe go crazy with shamanic power. wizard.gif

Price is ridiculous. I always wonder what goes on in the head of people who think their cacti are worth so much. Remember that auction with the lady who sold buckets of lophs out of her garden for a lot less than this?

Probably already knows it, but is hoping someone rich, foolish or enthusiastic enough notices the sale & commits to buy on a spur of the moment.

Heres another overprized cactus on ebay germany. And the text is so full of bullshit and mistakes its already funny. And its not even a cactus btw. Seller is a future-teller who offers to read over the phone. Crazy Hag.

Yup quite crazy, designer cacti prices, armani, and versace yotes!Will be the topic of many dinner party conversations in a pretty windowsill......for the winning bidder! 300 smiling heads of caespitosa dollars signs! I can see them now on a nice Italian marble coffee table, soaking up the exquisite conversation to a sparkling glass of Perrier Jouet or Dom Perignon!

Bags not getting the teeny tiny ones... (that will more than likely die if separated from the roots) caus thats the only way there could possibly be anywhere near 300 in the pot.

Evil Genius, if you are interested, I invite you to join me to the European cactus convention in Belgium in September, if you don't live to far from the border might be interesting. Tons and tons and tons and tons of exclusive cacti at ridiculous cheap prices.

Sounds great, Amanito. Not sure if i can make it though as i am always short on money. When will it take place? Will check it out the society later. Are you a member? Im not travelling that much but i´ll see if i can make it happen.

Im member of the german society too. Best decision in regard to cacti that i´ve ever made. You get in contact with so many great people.
