Any of y'all ordered stuff from the shroomery store? Just wondering about UK delivery times, ordered some stuff in Nov when the $20 off sale thing was happening, still nothing, nearly 4 weeks now... And it was for my birthday which was a couple of weeks-ish back..
Will prolly make a thread somewhere or ask admin, just thought I'd ask you lot first as we're in the same geographic boat. Cheers
**Also, Base, if there's anything I can do to help with the thread let me know, I know I'm good at offering help then disappearing, but got 2-3 weeks off and a reliable internet connection so let me know.

Yo Ego.
I think were just trying to get the good links in an easy to find place in the OP like the old thread. I wish I had time. Hell thats all I used to do is try to find the cheapest best stuff since I was pinching my pennies.
I think going backwards through this and then the old thread would be the best way to go about it.
If you can either post or me the links in categories if possible I can copy and pasta them into the OP.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated guys.

Hi Ego,
I bought a shirt a while back; I don't remember the delivery being either particularly fast or particularly slow. Maybe give it a bit more time (with time of year taken into consideration as well).

Those jars are awfully small I think. I reckon you want something closer to 250ml - roughly 1/2 pint - for cakes (assuming that's what you're doing).

Would love to see somebody rubber stamping that sites flow hood as A okay... so reasonably priced seems too good to be true and very tempted.
I have got one on order from http://www.standardhepafilter.com/ - hope to get it in 3 weeks - so I'll give a report once I've had the chance to try it out. Have been looking for an affordable flowhood for ages & when I saw it it was too good to pass up, hadn't seen the questions here about it at that point.
That site looks to be closing soon & selling off inventory but if it all works ok hopefully they'll stay open for a bit longer.

Cheap ass Mason jars, by far the cheapest I've ever seen. Good quality, cheap replacement lids too.

Not sure if this is a new site, but should be added to the index. 
BTW my swagstore order showed up eventually, took 9 weeks!! But worth the wait and it was the xmas period and there was a Customs label on it so I think there were import issues.
Shroomery gear seems good quality though.

For that price you might as well buy 12 x tesco finest preserve, you get 12 jars of preserve as a bonus too!

I prefer a 1000ml Mason jar any day. Mostly use my jars for sclerotia, litre is the only way to go and I just love these jars.
Also I try to avoid processed/excess sugar at the moment so 12 x preserves is just temptation beyond what I can handle.

Nice find ego. That Home Discovery brand (they call it Home Made) are the best quality mason jar lids I've used, and I use their 1L jars as well. That's a very good price for them.

Where are you getting sclerotia syringes from? It's something I'd be interested in in the future for sure.

I can't recall... believe it was MRCA http://www.mrcashop.org/mushroom_shop/mushroom-spore-syringes-exotic-mushrooms-c-170_152_32_38.html (not sure if they are still a sponsor, hope so if not sorry mods)
I've had LC's going for a couple of years, mine were Mexicana which they don't seem to have now.. Sure they aren't hard to find, long time since I bought any syringes..
