I already got the culture. If anyone will need the culture as soon as possible I might be able to send out some wedges.

Cool! Where did you get it? Is this the same culture from the group buy, mrcloudy's, or another strain?
The paper says that some strains work better than others, so we should be collecting as many different strains as possible.

I sent out 9 wedges today, so hopefully this will become more available very soon.
I sent them to everyone who PM'd me a domestic address. I wasn't able to send international because the post office is closed now and I am using prepaid postage envelopes and have no more stamps. If one is on the way to you, you have a PM from me.

It is the culture from the group buy.
Btw I´m from europe. So I could send wedges to european people without custom problems.

It's good to know that he's not been entirely out of contact. At first I figured he was just busy, but as time dragged on I thought he would have dropped a line at some point, esp. since he went off the radar at a time of such anticipation 
EDIT: after reading Reggies most recent update on the IGG page, my suspicions seem to be confirmed…

Hey folks, Just to let everyone know I offered to take care of this mess for Alan since he had to leave for Mexico. I was not part of the campaign, but did run my Black Reishi Co-Op Buy around the same time as this one was. "Reggie" was supposed to have shipped me all the cultures and the shipping funds, but alas he deleted his facebook account (James Cook) right after I gave him my addy. I don't know the whole story, but I personally think "Reggie" should be publicly chastised for fucking people out of their culture and money. This is NOT how you handle a Co-Op Buy!
Alan gave me his login info for the Indiegogo campaign, and I have copied everyone's email and info. I will do my best to get the P. microspora cultures out to everyone, but have absolutely no funds available for shipping and do not have any of the bonus cultures that were offered.
I need to know who here has received their culture so I can mark you off the list, and if anyone is willing to help distribute the culture please PM me so we can work out the details.

Buthoscorpio, I will take you up on that offer if you're still willing to help out. PM me and I'll get you all the info from the European contributors.

What the fuck did I do? The guy was pushy and rude. I got the cultures and let him know I no longer was interested in helping him. I also sent the cultures to him promptly. That's that. Nothing else. I didn't even handle the money.

Thanks for replying Lipa. I thought it seemed wrong that you'd have had a part it anything negative, but like I said I don't know the whole story. I was only going by what dickhead had posted on the indiegogo site. I apologize for including you in the rant, fixing it now.

Thanks for taking this on Ghia, we all (or at least I) appreciate it very much 
Alan probably already let you know I got a wedge from him last week, so I can get crossed off your list. Once I get my culture cleaned up, I would be happy to send out wedges, too — although I can't profess to be a pro mycologist, and I imagine you have some better facilities than I. I would hate to send out dirty cultures

Cheers dude, everyone seems to have gone quiet on this thread probably due to sheer frustration of being scammed. Im sure everything can get sorted if we all pull together. If I can help in any way feel free to pm me.

That is exactly what we need right now.
We don't need anything extravagant like petri dishes, but everyone who signed up for a culture should at least get a wedge.

I have decided to be transparent with correspondence with reggie. I am not going to place it all here in this thread though. I just sent an email to him regarding his dislike for me. As he sends email back and forth I will post it in my journal so you can read. I have nothing to hide from you.
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21932760/vc/1#21932760
However, for those who decided to give death threats to Reggie. That was uncalled for and pathetic. No one deserves that but terrorist. Reggie is a Army Vet and has fought for us. He in no way deserved that for making wrong decisions in an Indigogo campaign.
What a blivit!!

Alright folks, for me to cross anyone off the list need real names. Please PM them to me.
Possible good news, "Reggie" finally replied to me on FB. Apparently the public flaming got his attention...
"Hey man, seriously all these assholes making death threats is cute. I've filed police reports, your name, Alan and Lipa are on there. Thanks for giving me your address, I've got it now. Expect the cultures to be in the mail on Monday. Now please, I am removing all social media from my life. Sorry, it's nothing personal but you people are animals.
Going out tomorrow. Please send your email address to ChowDownOnPlastic@HushMail.com Deleting this, again. I'll send over a case of mailers, and funds promptly next week."
Sent me a tracking number too, so we'll see by the end of the week where we're at with all that.

 I am passing these out to people who paid and got screwed over. I am making 45 dishes right now. I can't cover the shipping. I know it's a bitch, but I NEED about $4 and You will get an entire dish. Get with Ghiajake about it because he has the list of who paid. I'm not just sending these to everyone who wants one, only people who paid. I am doing it out of the kindness of my heart, black as it may be

I agree with this Lipa, public flaming and death threats are two completely different things. I don't know why he felt like posting our addresses though.
