You can get all that stuff, except the shroom spores, from ANY-MART all in one stop. I have no idea what it would cost at a store, but your deal seems pretty low. I'd say that the spores definetly make this deal worth while.

STP -- sounds expensive. He has a habit of ripping newbies off. You would be better to buy everything from stores and do it yourself.

also, he sells the substrate for 12 jars for as much as $50!!!
you can do 3 or so batches when you buy yourself the substrate ingredients and do it yourself... is not that much work...
and its easy to find stuff... the hardest thing to find is the jars (for some people) but they are not that hard to find at all....
also, what he calls a hepa, its not a true hepa... thats more like a filterdisk. which cost around $15 for one-hundred...
He somehow manages to breathe in his sepia, wounded-tea, liquid ambiance suspension.
