Anyone Extremely Addicted to Succulents?

There's a Dioscrea macrostachya (Elephant's Foot) on ebay that is currently dirt cheap. There was another one that just went for a very low price. No one seems to be seeing them. This size plant would normally go for probably $50, but is only $15.50 + $6 freight on ebay right now. I am going absolutely nuts because it's such a good deal, but I have no room for it if I did get it. If anyone is really into succulents, this is a good deal!

Here is a link that might be useful: What I am missing out on.

For that plant, $15.50 was cheap! It went up to $31.11 + $6.00, which was closer to what it would have sold for normally. I don't feel quite as bad now, because I wouldn't have paid that much for it. Previously, a similar one sold for $15.50.

That's one of the fun things about ebay. If you're smart and careful, you can get some sensational deals. :-)
