There's a big difference between selling glass pipes and selling a tshirt that says "420" or "magic mushrooms"
Thank you 1st amendment.

Heh..heh....just thought of this it (being the above mentioned Shroomery Digest) could even end up as the "High Times" of the mushroom world and perhaps if they dont jump on this idea I will see if I can find someone interested in making it happen.

The T-Shirts were used as evidence to support thier claim that the pipes they found were drug paraphernalia.
The shirts themselves are not.
If the Shroomery sold prints, and also was a source of information for cultivating, then the sporeprints would be drug paraphernelia.

like i said, selling somebody a pipe for the express reason of smoking weed is NOT the same as selling a shirt.

I dunno about the shirt selling idea, most (enough to support this site anyway) wont want people publically knowing about their mushroom obsession. What about setting something up at concerts, or even advertising at concerts..it wont be enough but it can help...and hell if there was one in my area i would volunteer to help, we can sell cookies or somthin. No but seriously i agree with mycophat a magazine subscription could work too

I was going to start a spore business a long time ago if that helps. I already have finished the website infact. Perhaps I can help sell more syringes if that is any help. Sorry I couldn't have been more help. I am sure we will pull through once again!

raffles can make good money. we raised $1000 at mycotopia last october in one, paid our server bills for a year with extra left. a site as large as shroomery could undoubtedly make much more.
The cool part is....edible cultures, various dificult to find accessories or items...any number of things can be used as a prize...a couple of prizes maks for more appeal...get 3 chances as opposed to 1....
maybe its time for a survey.....

I'm sure that with the brains that are running this site, the shroomery could sell all mycology related products BUT NO SPORES and still be legit. I'd order everything I could from you guys. I'd even pay like 5$ a bottle for hydrogen peroxide If you ever need any donations let me know and i'll do all I can. i'd fucking shit if I didn't have you guys to turn to for questions, and to flame for your politics

If every person that thought they got some good knowledge from here sold an eigth to a friend for 20$ and mailed that in, we'd be doin fine
if It was an eighth per flush, you guys would have too much money, be like thoe guys in BLOW with boxes full of it

I like these ideas, too. the shroomery should have some sort of "shroomery times" like high times, know what I mean? I mean not called shroomery times but a mushroom magazine for shroomers like high times is for potheads. know what I'm sayin. I'd pay for shroomery books, too. those'd be neat..

oh and I also think that it would be good if the shroomery sold mycology related products (not spores) like other people said, especially the jars and other stuff some people can't get. if they sold empty syringes too that would be good. they should also sell edible mushrooms spores, I want to start an edible mushroom garden soon anyway

I could never condone sale of a substance....I have always felt it was to great od a risk, not in getting caugh but in what you stand to loose...and never fool yourself into believing you wont get caught....only the lucky one dont....my friend recently found a wireless microphone in his house....he sells weed...or used to, but he discovered that neighbors called about him refering to large amounts of traffic...and it turns out that a person they never would have suspected is working for the man....
always for personal use and never an excess....

a related question concerning the legalities of being a vendor:
Suppose someone were to set-up a website that collected knowledge about psychoactive succlents (San Pedro for example). There were FAQs and preparation recipes as well as plenty of general cacti (non-psychoactive) cultivation tips.
In order to keep the site afloat, they sold San Pedro via their website store.
Would there be any legal issues at hand? Would the DEA knock on this person's door?
Just curious.

Actually, that sounds like a great idea! I would love to help write articles and help publish the magazine. We have many smart minds at the Shroomery and could make this come together.

just a general reply... why not have all access to the shroomery be free except the off-topic forums? IE the pub, garden, marketplace, political S&P etc. all the die hards hang out in these places, the people who don't care enough to pay some money can be found in greater concentrations over in cult and such. i understand that donations/subscriptions alone wouldn't quite cut it, however. so i think the raffles would also be a good idea, perhaps have them as often as the admins determined was profitable and worthwhile. another thing i'm tentetive about is the move to canada. doesn't the financial stabilty of the shroomery come first? maybe we should worry about the canada thing once the more immediate problems are smoothed out.

I love the idea of a shroomery magazine. I would take a subscription.
