That's a lot of dough, but a really nice squamosa!

There are like 6 blue squamosas @ my lfs for under 700$

Loki · Aug 23, 2012

Yeah there are a lot around now. My lfs had one really cheap as well. $250!!

I need to ask...why are these clams selling for so much? Is it availability? My Lfs has tricadnas and Maximas all the time for about $60. Is the Squamosa different? Or is it just that they are not readily available where you guys are located? I am in Florida and I know things are much more common around here but am thinking this is some special clam? Thx everyone for input.

They are not typically found in those particular colors which is the reason for the high $$$

Loki · Aug 23, 2012

Up until recently the blue squamosa hadn't been in the hobby really. There have been (per Skinz) only a handful in the last 10 years.

Which one? The one at LA was 6".

Since this one has sold I have recently purchased 4 of them, kept one sold one and traded the other two away. There is a few of them on the market right now but from what I am told they will not be available again for a long time once this batch is gone.
