Now if you need something specific, you may have a better chance of finding it at this location compared to the other area habitat stores because they are much smaller or have even more...
Read morejust delt with them. they are crrocks. the people in store especially tthe 2 ladies have some contract with people outside , that they themselves sell items by bulk when something really is of good value. They call them and get the percentage and when you arrive they say oh item has not been priced and 2 minutes later they say ,oh items has been sold.
