 Sporeworks vs. Ralphster?   1
#2272796 - 01/25/04 08:49 PM (21 years, 3 months ago) |

Sporeworks describes their syringes as dark and full of spores. I have to admit, though I much appreciated Ralphster's speed and pricing, the syringes weren't exactly dark with spores. Anyone know whether this is the case with sporeworks or not? or whether ralphster's spores were in fact quite dark with them?
thanks

Both are quality vendors. If dark syringes are what you want, make your own syringes. Ralph, Sporeworks, and The Hawks Eye, all have noticible spores in their syringes.

The darkness of the spores has not THAT much to do with the quality.
If the spores are old then the syringe can be purple, but is still won?t do any better than a completely clear syringe with fresh spores.

thanks, thats the sort of answer i was looking for. but surely sporeworks doesnt have old syringes that have turned purple? im just wondering if anyone has ordered from both companies and found that one syringe looked like it had more spores than the other.

Not that I would know.
No vendors I know have consistently "colored" syringes.
Sometimes they are more purple, sometimes they are more translucent.
But as I said, this is not important. What is important is that the spores are not contaminated and that they are reasonably fresh. Which they are with most of the vendors, it?s in their interest that the spores can be microscoped with good success.

Id go with Ralph, but thats the only vender i go threw. The end product that the spores create should be your only worries...thats all you should care about. Ordering from a credit card though leaves a paper trail...and in the USA that is not a good thing to have.

Penalties against drug use should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against the possession of marijuana and mushrooms in private for personal use.

i just noc'd some jars with ralphs spores. I was amazed and excited and i think i might have wet myself. after 3 days, not even, my spores from ralph germinated and i've got like 20 dime sized spots in every jar. I've bought syringes from mindexcursions before, and they didn't look any different than ralphs but ralphs were way better. I'm actually incubating some mindx spores right now, and it took them roughly 10 days to even germinate, and i got maybe 3 spots per jar tops. After some bad experiences with other vendors I must say I am extremely satisfied with ralphsters spores. kudos to you ralphster!

Thank you 
There is a difference...
I dont keep prints longer than 6 months.
Fresh spores are better...that is a fact.
My older prints,which are still good...I give to the Free Spore Rings.
I started the FSR...and I still like the idea:)
Thats why so many people like my product the best..because it is the best...pure and simple.
I supply the best possible spores.
I test my prints more than anyone else...and I consistantly find pure strains, without contams.
The growing conditions may seem extravagant to most, but the bottom line is what counts....and that is HAPPY CUSTOMERS.
I believe we have the BEST customer service.
Our shipping is excellent...3 day delivery.
ANY complaints are handled immediately...and they are few!!!
7 new strains will be added very soon for your complete strain selection.

I asked ralph if he could make either PR or EQ his next strain of the month. He met my request exactly and February's strain is PR. How many company's take that amnount of customer consideration? Try asking for free hashbrowns instead of fries at McDonalds. Good luck. Ralph rocks!

I also have a problem with sporeworks and sporebank. I 've been told that they are in cohoots and they purchased a domainname similar to ralph's. That's just shady in my opinion. A friend ordered from them thinking ralph went under after the pf thing. It turned out that he typed in "ralphsterspores.com" instead of ralphstersspores.com". That's not very cool on them.

Sporeworks provides spores and supplies to a few different companies. Don't confuse Sporebank with Sporeworks. Sporebank is overpriced and they are stealing Ralph's name. That is wrong no matter how you look at it.
Sporeworks is a retail and wholesale spore vendor... they provide equipment and spores to individuals as well as several companies... what those companies do with that product after it is purchased is out of Sporeworks' control.
I do wish Sporeworks would tell Sporebank to stop stealing Ralph's domain... there is a little guilt by association... but not much. Sporeworks risks losing a HUGE contract by giving Sporebank an ultimatum.
I doubt Sporeworks put Sporebank up to stealing Ralph's name. I could be wrong... but it makes no sense.

you're right, but I still won't have anything to do with it. I can't force sporeworks to do anything, but I can choose to not do business with them in a sort of silent protest.

Raqlph has such good customer service that he offered to replace a syringe I fucked up on.
I contacted him to see if he had any similar problems cause I could not isolate the sourceof my screw up.
This guy says that he hasen't had any similar complaints, and he was sure the issue was not on his end. He still offered to send me a replacement. Try that shit with Microsoft and see how far you get.
Ralphster, you da' man.
P.S. No, I didn't accept the free syringe, it was after all, my fault.

Sporebank and sporeworks are the same.
Order from either one..they ship from the same place.
They have the same pics on their websites.
They ARE the same.
They have been stealing from ralphfor over a year now.
Interesting huh?
They are stealing from Ralph and they know all about it.

They are not the same.
I will paste you again the explanation cervantes gave you:
Sporeworks provides spores and supplies to a few different companies. Don't confuse Sporebank with Sporeworks. Sporebank is overpriced and they are stealing Ralph's name. That is wrong no matter how you look at it.
Sporeworks is a retail and wholesale spore vendor... they provide equipment and spores to individuals as well as several companies... what those companies do with that product after it is purchased is out of Sporeworks' control.

I thought you might have missed this little piece of advice you gave yourself.
