Question About Shroomery, Sponsor, Spore Vendors.
    #14644233 - 06/20/11 04:59 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Been a while since I'v ordered spores.  Last time I did (2 years ago) Ralphsters and sporeworks the GO TO banks.  Since then I'v read several complaints about shipping time and communication.  The last, most recent, complaint I read was about Sporeworks not getting orders shipped and them not returning emails.

My question is, has anybody out there used any of these 2 companies without any problems, recently?  Thanks.

Used both recently with zero issues.  Same with Hawk.

I go with Ralph.


You get the syringe you pay for and the SOTM for free (if you hand write it with your moneyorder/cash)

His spores look excellent under the microscope

I will also vouch for Ralphsters. It did take a little longer than expected though.
And sporeworks, last time I ordered from there, there were some problems with delivery but they replaced my order and doubled it for free.

Thanks for the replies, fellaz.

If the case is that Ralph's and Sporeworks is still going strong, think I'll be going with Sporeworks.  Possibly a four pack.  Although, Ralph's has a Port LC for 18 dollars.  Been looking for a reasonably priced Port. culture.  Cheapest Port. culture I'v found online (for sale) was from HoosierMushroomCompany.  60 dollars for a full petri dish culture.

There's been a whole lot of stuff happening lately, Canada post went on strike and Sporeworks' credit card processor stopped working, as a business that must be a total nightmare and it isn't under your control.

Read through the last few pages of vendor forums and you'll find they are all totally cosher. :thumbup:

Just ordered from Sporeworks-
Online credit card system is still off, but their service is still top notch. Ordered Friday (but didn't get a chance to call in my info till Wednesday at 11am) - Just got my order, 835am Thursday- Less than 24 hours later.
This is why I keep ordering from them.
Even got to mention Shroomery for a bonus syringe.

SUCCESS!

Opted to order over the phone.  Made the order, late Monday afternoon.  The transaction was highly smooth and professional.

3 days after my order was placed, the syringes arrived in the mail. 

Moral of the story;  Sporeworks (as far as I'v experienced) is still a reputable dealer when it come to shipping.

Got the WBS just about dry to be loaded into jars.  Gonna nnoc. these spores to grains.  Now let's see if the syringes pass the contam. test (I'm sure they will). 

Nest, I'mma see how ralph is doing these days and pick up one of his Port. cultures.

Good to see it worked out for ya. Never had a problem with sporeworks. The guy I talked to on the phone seemed happy to help me, even though I'm sure he already had 50 calls that day.

Just noticed the first signs of germination in several jars inoculated on the 20th..  Ordered PE, PESH, APE, and Burma.  Used the pe, pesh, and berma syringes, inoculating sterile quart jars of WBS..
