"bring your own nuc box and I transfer bess and 1 frame of brood and 1 frame of honey into your box for $125.00."

I wasn't aware we were that short on bees this year that a one frame nuc (with one frame of honey) was going for $125 :)

Bees of gold.

Hey, you get bess also !

I think they got the decimal place in the wrong spot   ;)

Should say: $12.50 due to the glut of bees!  Free hive tool for the first 10 customers  :-D

Thing is he'll probably sell out on all he's got even at those prices.  :shock: Mind you, these will be wannabe bee keepers that purchase, but still...

Maybe his day job is on Wall Street  :)

Did he include a picture of "Bess"?  :evil:

[AllenF]

Call him and see if there is a warranty on the bees if they do not make it through winter.

125.00???  :shock:
Dang i'd rather buy a package and wait for the build up at those rates.

[AllenF]

Build up?   One frame of bees is less than a package.    Dump a package on drawn comb and feed them and you would be way ahead of that $125 nuc.

[yockey5]

I love bees, but not for that money!

[forrestcav]

thats what I was getting at. I could buy a package and even with foundation be ahead.
