Is ralphsters spores still a sponsor? * 1
    #21786158 - 06/09/15 11:19 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

I dont know if this will be deleted if they are no longer a sponsor but im looking for some input. They definitely used to be but i no longer see ther name on the sponsor list


I ordered 5+ weeks ago over 100$ worth of spores (i think 10-12 syringes) and paid bitcoin

Im in ontario not far from ralph and shipping should take 3-5 days max.


Anyways i still havent received and there was absolutely no contact from him until i emailed him

He notified me his wife had a heart attack and i felt sincerely sorry but now im considering he may be scammin now...though.maybe this is just my mind thinking the worst.

i paid in bitcoin...and ts very posible his wife is just sick

but his website is still open and taking orders?!


I also searched around and it seems this may have started occuring once he built up a reputation.


Again maybe im thinking the worst but i am quite concerned.


MODS- If this isnt  here cause ralph is no longer. Sponsor please dont  delete it an move it for me to where it should be


Thanks!

The guy is just plain messing around with people. It took over three months and a threat of a lawsuit to get my order from that pos.

^^ it's silly that he blamed admins/mods for such an issue. I think if you have a good reputation, patrons would back you up when someone complains

You probably got scammed. Hes been selectively scamming people for years. If your product comes it will be full of contams. I grew out his syringes on agar, nothing but contams and zero mycelium. Then I thought maybe its my technique, so I gifted a few syringes to a great cultivator on here, even they couldnt get any mycelium, just full of contams.

As far as Im concerned Ralphster is selling syringes of tap water and nothing else.

Sorry OP.

Every Canadian I've talked to that went through him has been ripped off.

Seems like there is a new post about this guy every week. Why don't one of the mods put up a sticky about known scammers like this guy? Would it be a legal issue if they did?

Add another to the list of users scammed by Ralphsters. I can't even get a response out of this guy. I'll be sure to pay closer attention to the dates next time I'm searching reviews.

I've since found all the negative posts regarding Ralphsters. His replies to customers who complained are appalling. How did this guy last so long around here to begin with?

Sorry to bump a month old thread, but this seemed relevant.

Good quick service and clean prints from the Ralph.us.  One of the only vendors if not the only vendor that ships to ***a sunny glamorous place***, so I didn't really have much choice about where to order.  Never heard anything good about Ralph.ca


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...

This is ralphster44's last post on the Shroomery: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18354706#18354706

"well, I think the shroomery is out of control.
The mods and the admin don't do a thing about these little kids that post here.
I have been here for 15 years!!!

You would think that paying for advertising here that the mods and the admin would defend us against the couple of jerks that post bad things about us, that is not the case.

in fact, we have been attacked by mods here.
that is not acceptable to us.

Ralphstersspores will still be around. In fact we are the largest vendor in the world.

We have been advised from our laywers
to run away from here. Run fast and don't look back.
We do not support or promote drug use for kids.
In fact we have been told to get away from this site.
I hope you understand what I am saying.

I have been told that the vendors here that take credit cards are or will be soon, looked at.
I have said this for a long time.
Your credit card info is forever. They will know who you are and what you have purchased.

This info is available from the credit card info made from there companies

We have been here a long time but this site is not the place to be.

we don't do credit cards, believe it or not. we can no longer stay here.

this is my last post here.

www.RalphstersSpores.com will be in business, but no longer have anything to do with the shroomery.

Stay safe my friends!!!! "

Hopefully that clears something up for you.




But eventually he turned it into money order only... So how could credit cards be the problem? Is it just that the credit card vendors made more cash? But if hes the biggest spore vendor in the world it shouldnt matter...

Nobody is "selling drugs to kids". Most of the actual "kids" on here really cant even grow a PF cake, i dont think theyre actually interested in growing shrooms or see it as something thats even attainable

Is it really true he started scamming for real? Or are those just rumors? I hear of people that just didnt get their orders but maybe it just took a while.

Then again, midwestgrowkits had some really terrible FCs they were selling, and he def endorsed them. When i first got into this hobby i bought one, and i had to turn it into a SGFC lol. It would never have grown anything, it was the shittiest P2P. But the substrate that came with it was *great*, clean, PCed well and all that...

Best spores I've ever received were from ralphsters about 2-3 years ago but I recently purchased their ultimate special deal consisting of about 40 strains. Studied em all out to find they were all the same strain just labeled differently. Talked to him about it and he gave me some automatic bs robot souless responses. So that was my time and money down the drain. Time, money, and energy which I dont have so you can see why im weary of these scammers.

I did get my order extremely quick though.

Wow this is all tough to read. It's a real bummer to hear all this.
What a shitty thing to do in the name of such a beautiful molecule. Sucking shameful.

Still haven't received anything from Ralphster. Order in pending status for just about 2 months now. I did manage to get a response out him finally, said he would ship out asap, that didn't happen.

I wasn't really waiting on them, I've got other spores here to examine. Plus, I'm only a couple days away from accessing the marketplace. Can't wait to get my hands on some PE!

Ralph was a good vendor for many years...I bought from him exclusively,but stopped because of the contams. Spore works is way more reliable and the strains are much more fascinating to look at ...always wanted to try lil shop of spores too:thumbup:
