TLG Open For Business - with some changes.
    #1320693 -

I'm still doing some work on the site but we're back up and running folks. :smile:

No more descriptions of strains:  :frown:  Sorry folks but if you want info on a strain then you'll just have to do searches in your favorite forum.

E-mail interaction: We will now have a very very strict zero-tolerance policy on mentioning cultivation related subjects. It's real simple, if anyone makes mention of, or asks about cultivation we will assume you are a law enforcement officer attempting to entrap us and your order will be denied and we will no longer correspond with you. Period, no exceptions. I'm sorry it's come to this but it's clear that at the present time this is the only way to stay in business.

I shouldn't be seeing any posts about how rude you were treated by TLG because I'm telling everyone up front that you can expect to be treated rude if the subject of cultivation is mentioned.

For those wondering about replacements, there is not, nor has there ever been a need to bring up cultivation when asking for a replacement. TLG has a no questions asked policy when it comes to sending a replacement for the first time. Just provide us the batch number. If we feel that an individual is abusing the policy we will deny the replacement.

There's a couple changes that will affect how you will make orders.

1] I've added new disclaimers so that by clicking on the order buttons you will in effect be agreeing to abide by the rules of the disclaimer. (Spores for Microscopy use only)

2] Everyone who sends money to us through the mail MUST now include the order form as it has our disclaimer on it. If you don't have a printer then you can still send us a note with a handwritten disclaimer. We will now be sending you your order form with the disclaimer back to you in your package.


I want to let you guys know that the reason for these new rules is to provide the safest transactions possible for both TLG and it's customers.

I want to thank everyone for the posts, e-mails, and pm's of support over the last 24 hours. These are strange times indeed but we can all get through it if we just continue to do things the right way. :smile:

Bottom line is that spores are legal for microscopy purposes and that's exactly how we're gonna market them. Everyone be safe, we look forward to your continued support.

then you might want to change your 'clean and viable spores' motto, as "viable" clearly implies cultivation not microscopy.

Its still cool to see that you're not gonna drop out of the business. We all respect the fact that the spores are being sold for a legal purpose. Its that every thousandth person that decides to do something illegal with them...

Say boxTop. I just had a "brain fart"!  :grin:

If you really want to push your image of your "Microscopy use only" concept why not have a contest in which you give away one of those awesome Investigator 138 microscopes that you sell!

It might come out very handy for some guys that cant afford an expensive medical fertility test.. :grin:. For example:  "look now honey? See there... there swimming!.. and that there is a REAL fast polywag..  :smirk:- You see, I told you it wasnt my fault!"  :grin: :blush: :grin:

Raising your prices more and more each day???? [Re: boxtop703]
    #1342848 -

I ordered a couple syringes last week and was planning on ordering a much larger order this time around, but what's the deal with your prices going up so dramatically fast?

3 Days ago I could buy a syring for $8
Yesterday I could buy one for $10
Today it's $15?????

What's the deal?

Things have become far more serious among online spore vendors. The legal risk to the vendor has been heightened

The PF situation brought to light the ugly fact of children buying spore syringes and using them for purposes other than microscopy.

The parents of those children are the one's responsible for the complaints to authorities which ultimately led to PF's demise.

In an effort to curtail children from buying from TLG we have decided to raise prices. This is a part of the changes that we felt neccesary to implement to help keep our business on safe ground.

I don't believe these changes in prices are so drastic that they will affect working adults who are the one's who's business we are targeting in the first place.

Hopefully you folks will feel that the service and product that TLG provides is worth the increase in price.

I think for what you receive, the prices are still more than fair.

:smile:

TLG is on it's way out too.

We are not refilling stock. When I run out of stock, that will be it. When I run out of strains, TLG will no longer exist.

This will happen sometime around late summer or possibly sometime next year I predict. I have lots and lots of stock!

Btw, my prices are still lower than most if not all the vendors so I don't think they are unreasonable.

What reason would you have to stop a profitable business??  Sounds like it gives the government time to collect some names and addresses before the site closes.

Sorry, I must have been spending too much time in the political forum.  I would never accuse TLG of such.  Sorry.  They are a GREAT COMPANY with excellent products and service!!!  I am just concerned about protecting our community right now.  :frown:

But think about it.  Is this and the PF bust a coincidence?  Or does this mean that they know something we don't ...such as spores will become illegal at around the same time business stops, and our government is just giving them a grace period to get out.  ??  I'm looking for another reason, but I don't see anything.

It does? Do you really think if the Government was behind this that we would be making any kind of announcement at all? Please.

That's cool, I know everyone is on edge right now. These are scary times.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that these things are related.


Quote:

Oh yes, because the Government has shown just how compassionate they can be to online vendors.


Quote:

How about because the online vendors are possibly as scared or more scared than you?, And that they would all just quit today if they could afford too.  :crazy:

Do you think that might play a part in this?

Stop trying to vilify the remaining vendors. It's not true and it only helps spread paranoia.

Just for the record The Hawks Eye has raised prices as well. They will continue to go up even a little further next week. We hate to do it but this is a high risk business now and we need to save some money in case we need a good attorney like PF.

Also we want to prevent any youngsters from ordering from us as well.
Sorry guys & gals, but times are changing.

even worse: I was in the process of ordering 2 syringes at a cost of $15.00. I left my PC and came back 15 minutes later to print my order form and the price had changed to $24.00. I wrote them about my 'concern' and they did not reply.

If you think these prices are high, go into business with cheaper prices. I think once you start to consider the risks, you'll find that syringes for $15 each are still a bargain, all things considered.
