is universityscientific a scam?
    #4947482 -

Hi,
My name is luke and I'm new to the forum. \
About a month ago I ordered the MYCO-2 MycoKit Package Deal from a scammer. I got no information from them about a tracking number so i decided to email them, i got an email back that said the kit is on backorder. I thought no biggie becuase he said the kit should be sent out in the next week, it's been a month now and they stopped responding to my e-mails. The sad thing is, that the kit was for my little sisters birthday becuase she's into that scientific stuff. :-( now it seems i lost $160 with shipping. I called them yesterday, but it seems that you only get to talk to a voicemail not a real person. I'm woundering if anyone ever ordered from them. I trusted them becuase they are affiliated w/ sporebank.com

thanks

I can't vouch for the company, but I can say that that deal is a rip off. Sorry for your loss.

I admit I bought from universityscientific when I was first starting out. I ended up getting my money back. What you do is call your credit card company and ask for a charge back. If you don't get the product you paid for within a month, you get a full refund. universityscientific will help you get mold.

I sure think they are. It was horrible dealing with them in my exp. I ordered one syringe and and grip of mycobags. It took about a month or two to get it all str8ened out.

But they did give me 3 equador syringes for free.

I grew successfully with one of them!

So yeah, forget about them.

EDIT:
I beleive this is the same branch... www. sporebank.com


--------------------
No, not you. Who am I to tell you what to think?

Sorry

Everything that you read from me is BS. Ignore please. I repect everyone, sorry if I somehow trigger something. Just Be.

I orderd mine with debit card that takes money out of your bank account. Do you think i'll still be able to get the money back?

Yes they are huge scam artist and all of there affiliates are too. look at all the bad reviews they have: http://davesgarden.com/products/gwd/c/5241/

And by the way, the positive reviews are bullshit, probably posted by the company itself to save face. I'm finding the exact same "positive" reviews word for word on other sites under different user names, locations etc.

I'm glad i did not order anything from them, just stick to the sites listed as trusted sponsors here, i have made 3 online orders using shroomerys affiliates and there shipping and customer support is better than big corps. like Walmart, Target, etc.

This thread has been closed.

Reason:
We don't need to bump a five year old thread to point out that U.S. is a scam.  They're well known as such and only prey on noobs who use google to find their stuff.
