Gourmet Mushroom Spores Wanted

Right, well i was wondering if anybody would like to send me some "yummy mushroom" spores, so i can try and grow them... I know there are places online that sell various spores, but the prices seem totally ridiculous, so, if anyone has a spore print or two of some easy to cultivate species, since i am still pretty much a noob, i would be very thankful!
I'm looking forward to cultivating edible mushrooms, or really any type of mushroom :P
Message me or comment here if you want to make a trade for something (but, i have zip when it comes to things like this, like i said, I'm still pretty much a noob)
Thanks for checking out my thread at least

I agree prints can be a bit over priced (oysters for example ) but i think "cultures" of the others are close to being right as there's usually more work involved. Bare in mind professional cultures cost $100+ so when you look at it like that its a great deal.
you should probably check the market place if your looking to trade for a culture or a print. infact i think there's someone offering cultures in there right now can't remember what he was wanting however

"Once you learn about them there is NO chance of confusing them with poisonous mushrooms. "
Other than ^that statement, the linked page seems to give accurate information (in a general sense). AFAIK, there are no oyster-lookalikes that are poisonous in the United States. Pretty much anything you find that is "oyster-looking" will be edible even if it doesn't taste great. Just make sure to pick mature fruits for the table. (those the size of your hand or larger) and clean out the beetles- there presence in great numbers is a good sign you've got an oyster.
Oysters are delicious! So enjoy them whenever you get the chance.

for free sporeprints you can visit www.FreeSporePrints.org
We have wedges too, but you must clean them on agar.
