Question: Fire salamander price in US

[Palejellybean]

Hello,
I may be getting a fire salamander soon. Is under $150 before shipping a reasonable expectation of the price of a fire salamander? If not, what is.
Thank you for your help.

sounds reasonable. Watch for scams

Ok thanks, I know to look out for really low prices and untraceable payment. Is there anything else?

Nope. I usually just google the person and see what pops up. I don't like using Zelle or friends and family for people without a proven record. Sometimes I take a chance if it isn't to much money. I would be surprised if you find many fire salamanders for under 150.00

What I meant by this question is if it’s a reasonable price to ask for, or if they almost always cost more. I see some for $180 and $90 flat rate shipping. Should I get that one, or wait for a cheaper one?

Some old adds from retailers don't get updated. Those prices seem real low. I got some nice subadult to adult fire salamanders from John Clare on this forum a couple months ago.

Okay, I’ll double check, thank you.
