Pac Prices?

[Poly]

Hey everyone!

I'm looking at getting a nice green or golden brown pacman frog, and was wondering if I am getting them at good prices?

Green Pacman: 60.00$ + tax

"Golden Brown" Pacnam: 65.00$ + tax

Albino or Ornate Pacman: 124.99 + tax (Whats the difference between Albino & Ornate, as far as I can see, one is "albino" and one is green and red?)


Are these good/normal prices?

I've seen a cheaper prices on websites, but what do YOU pay for your pet store?

Thanks!

I dont pay that much for my pacs for a cranweli it should be around 15 to 20 bucks for a baby adults are higher for an ornate it will be 25 to 40 bucks for babys

[Poly]

Looks like I'm over paying, huh? Yeah, I'm getting them as babies too.

[pac]

My petstore charges those prices for adults when they get them in you are overpaying for babies

That sounds expensive, like twice what it would be in the US. What's the exchange rate with the US dollar right now? Isn't the Canadian dollar worth a bit more? That means you're likely getting a bad deal. Having said that, prices are different in different countries so you might want to check around.

[pac]

Yea may wont to look around more like john said

That's a bit too high in prices. Over here an adult Cranwelli would cost $24.99 while an adult would be $15, I've seen one pet store that has Ornate's and they're asking $25 for them. Are there any stores around you that have Pacman Frogs? Some websites jack the price up to ridiculous amounts

[Poly]

There is only one pet store in my area, and they have to ship the frogs form southern ontario, maybe this is why the prices are so high?

This "pet store" in my area carries parrots and poodles, that's it (lol) anything else, you have to order.

[LizardMama]

Is there a pet store the next town over that has Pacman Frogs? Have you tried negotiating with the pet store about that price? Some stores will help you out

[Poly]

The next "town over" with a pet store is a 5 hour drive from me... and from what I know, there price isn't negotiatiable... Guess if I want my own lil' pac, I'm just going to have to pay it.

I looked on a website today, and they were asking 19.99$ for a green pacman!

[LizardMama]

$19.99 is a completely better price for a Green Pacman that $60. I'd go for that one

[RibbitSrUs]

Those prices are crazy, The prices around me are 15 for greens,browns and albinos 20 for ornates 25 for apricots and 40 for cornutas when they get them in. Getting stuff online is probably your best bet but if you think about it your going to pay 19.99 for a green then you have to pay shipping which will be around 25 and up. But the prices around your way seem to be a bit crazy

[Poly]

But the prices around your way seem to be a bit crazy

Agreed!

I'm not old enough (yet-hehe ) to have a credit card, so I can't order over the internet, and my parents don't like dealing over the internet... so, I guess the only other option for me is a money order? Still I'd rather pay 45$ than 60$... might even ge able to get one of those yellow and red pacman frogs, what are they called?

[MeTree]

The internet is great, but you need to make sure that they will ship to Canada and you need to make sure they aren't going to slap a big shipping charge on you that you aren't aware of. I am thinking about ordering a Pacman Frog off the internet. Looking at maybe getting a high-red ornate in afew months, but the shipping alone would be US$61.

Prices at my local pet stores
Green Cranwelli $19.99 - $32
Albino Cranwelli $32
"Regular" Ornate $25
...then my LFS lets me order whatever I want.

Prices I have found online
Green Cranwelli $19.99 - $25.99 +shipping
Brown Cranwelli $19.99 +shipping
Albino Cranwelli $19.99 - $45 +shipping
"Regular" Ornate $20 - $40 +shipping
Red Ornate $34 +shipping
Fantasy (Hybrid) $30 - $80 +shipping
C.Cornuta $50 - $100 +/-shipping

Shipping typcially runs about $40 - $50 with the occasional $60+ rate. I like to look at it as "look at all the money and time I saved driving!" even though usually it is abit more than driving afew hours.

Good luck getting your Pacman Frog! Hope it goes smoothly!

If you cant get a credit card you can always use a american express gift card. That will be the same as a credit card

Do American Express Cards work in Canada? Just wondering because I don't know.

Neither do I... So what, I just buy one for the amount I need, and use it as a credit card over the internet to order things!?

[rebelbrat]

Id like to get an apricot. Ive seen on the samari pacman website that they sell turqoise for $100.00. You should see all the morphs they have.

[MeTree]

LOL, I forgot about that website.
