Today's Craigslist Pick Up's :) Mistking, Mesh Cages, Etc.

[GabeCastro]

Finally got a Mist King!

Found someone selling a MistKing Starter Kit on Craigslist for $80 bucks, also stated he had a few mesh cages for sale.

Emailed him last week and he got back to me today. So today i drove out to meet with him and picked up the goodies. He threw in some extra's that i could have for free.

Everything given to me was in like new condition.

Wow, not bad. I spent $225 for 2 mistking systems and 3 nylon screen cages and 15 nozzles. You pretty much got a STEAL...lol. Nice work.

Ha that's funny I know exactly the ad you responded to. I was debating whether it would have been worth the drive to the bay or not...

Now that I see the score I think it might have been!

Good score!

Wow that is amazing! I wish I lived in an area where that stuff was commonly on craigslist. Darn! Anyway make sure you wash the cage, vines, and foliage well before you use it. The other chameleon could have had something wrong with him and you do not want that on your chameleon when you get him.

Haha i have no idea what i would do with all that stuff, def a good deal because sounds like you got the Advanced Mist King. And thats pretty much $200 bucks itself!

It was a super far drive for me, went from Berkeley to Burlingame. Took about 40 minutes, but the guy was super nice so i made the trip out there.

he said $60 flat for the mistking, and $80 together if i want the smaller cage. He also just threw in the larger cage too and said i could have it if i wanted it. Then i asked him if he had anything else like foliage and what not, sure enough he did and gave me everything he had for $80 bucks.

Guess you gotta be patient, i'll def be looking on craigslist more often!

Thanks for the heads up, i'll be sure to treat everything i just got.

when he sent me pics of the cages, looked like they just got washed, but i'll be sure to wash them myself.

All i was expecting was a mistking and small cage for $80 bucks, then bam tells me i can have a bunch of other stuff.

Did you get all of the hardware and screws for the 2x2x4?

 

[GabeCastro]

Wow. Time to start searching craiglist for things I didn't think would be on there...

i had no idea a mist king would be on there, i was just searching for breeders and i noticed chameleon stuff. So i went for it and searched for a mist king and one popped up. Guess you can call that luck? haha

 

[GabeCastro]

yup! had to take it apart to get it inside our cars. But i have all the screws and everything. May need a new bottom, it's just alittle stained and dirty from use.

Well it would have been a 2 hour drive for me, if it was only 40 minutes I would have been there! I have to drive at least 40 minutes to get anywhere!
