Well folks, my name has been brought up in here along with several others and let me just tell you a little secret. You can only get soooo good at making roaches and then there is no farther that you can improve. At that point all you can try and do is to get quicker at tying them and for some that is a down fall cause they cut one corner to many and quality drops. Also some roach makers do not do all of their own tying so you might not actually get a roach made by them when you buy from them.

You can bet though that if you buy from a big company that they are not the ones making the roaches they sell. I myself used to sell roaches to Crazy Crow, NocBay and many other vendors and trading posts. You are always going to be better off going to an actual roach maker to get yourself a roach.

Basically once you find a roach maker that has been at it for a while, odds are they do good work (though this is not always true and I could site names but will be courteous and reframe). Issues to watch for are consistency, how busy they are and whether they have a good rep as to how they do business. Roaches are hand made and patients is the best thing when looking for a maker and after your order is placed.

Depends opn what you are looking for. I have sold roaches for as little as $110 and as much as $2000. The quailty of the contruction is the same the difference is what the customers wanted ... length of base, length of porky, # of colors, extra rows, etc. PM me your email address and I will send you a price list.
