Question regarding non shroomery vendors

What must a vendor do to go from shroomery vendor to non shroomery vendor?
And what might I infer from the non shroomery vendor status regarding business with a no longer shroomery vendor?

Not sure I understand your question. Are you asking what the criteria is for a vendor to become shroomery approved, and what the difference is?

what must a vendor do or not do .... in order to go from the status of shroomery vendor, to status of non shroomery vendor?
and does suc ha status change suggest that one should avoid or be wary of doing business with that company?
specifically referring to substraight.

There are many ways to loose your Shroomery Vendorship... the most common is poor customer service/feedback.
Some of these companies are small, like one person small, and sometimes a good person goes through a bad time.
Sometimes a good person goes batshit insane...
And sometimes a good person stops being a good business person.
Former sponsors aren't always 100% bad... but you can rest assured, they've conducted business poorley (at least for a time) in the eyes of this community.
Unless, of course, they dropped their own sponsorship.

I'm sure Roadkill could tell some stories.
The Shroomery values its community more than it values any single vendor. If a vendor looses the community's trust, for any legitimate reason, they will be dropped.

imo there needs to be more pre-sterilized substrate vendors. but offering packs of 3 and not just 6 to 12.
i didn't find any complaints regarding substraight, only a member's surprise as to the change of their vendor status.

*SubSTRATE 
Unfortunately, selling substrate is far less profitable than selling spores... and shipping it costs a fortune. Most people who buy bags of sub... only buy them once... then they start making their own... so the demand isn't exactly high.
In most parts of the world, you can buy a PC and some jars, and sterilize your own sub for the same price as 3 bags of pre-sterilized sub.

5pack of substrate bags is pretty much the cost of a PC. Add jars is a little more, but then you got the supplies you need for the future.

nope, but looking at the site, I an tell you that you can get everything he's selling at walmart for a third of what he's charging. And they have small Miro brand pressure cookers there that work fine, for like 35-40 bucks. Good for an intro PC.
Don't buy pre-sterilized grain off the net, it's waay easier to do it yourself.

That's confidential information known only to them and the staff here. Unless substraight comes in to answer your question, just leave it at they're no longer sponsors. RR

I thought substrates were to be pasteurized? Or have I been doing it wrong?
