How to get different spore types without breaking the bank?

Hi guys. I just finished my first harvest of Golden Teachers that I started from spores using PF teak. Got the spores from **** ****, and everything worked out great.
Being from Canada, it's super expensive for me to buy spores online. Even though postage for a spore print to canada costs about a buck, it cost me around $45 (print and shipping) for a single print.
Now that I've done GTs, I want to try growing different varieties. But I dont' want to pay $45 for each type. Anyone know how I might acquire different prints? Is there a trading forum for like-minded individuals?

Thanks. I was not aware of that feature of shroomery. I will hit the 90 day in about a month from now. Perfect!

Marketplace forum, FSRE.nl (Free Spore Ring Earth,) PM Ppl with trade lists.
Get weird varieties people don't have from FSRE.nl, that will increase your trade value.
GT, EQ, B+, AA+, Cambo, TC, Mazatapec, PESA, PESH, are probably the most common and therefore least valuable prints.
It's hard to say if most of these varieties will have any effect on how the spore print you receive will grow. However, one Name X Print may just produce all around better results than Name Y print, may yield better, clones and isolate more easily, etc... so throwing some genetic diversity in your pocket is never a bad idea.
--------------------
I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...

Why not get spore syringes?
They are much cheaper than prints.
I get my for $10 a syringe, with shipping.
Then you grow it out from syringe, or use agar, print your fruits and bam! you have your own prints.
Just got to shop around for syringes and the best price.

I highly suggest you print your next fruits and make your own syringes. Its really easy and you become more self-sufficient!

I'm in europe and get my syringes from a US sponsor, not only are they probably the most respected, but they are true developers of new strains/types -and to top that they are the cheapest for me too. The postage is surprisingly cheap.
Also if you say you are a shroomery member and ask nicely they might throw in a few cube syringe.

well presumably i should be able to get some prints off what i have going now. if so i will be done with spending money on spores.

When I first started growing I spent a fortune on spore syringes trying out everything I could
You should start working with agar, get a nice slant collection going.
You'll never need to use your print more than once. Well not unless you wanna start a new culture from scratch

I had trouble getting some PE to germinate on agar... I started cutting a small grid pattern about the size of a quarter with the red hot scalpel, then dropping a drop directly on the grid...all 6 plates have growth now...yessss
