Has anyone ordered from them yet? I found they were pretty good. I was speaking with the owner. The money has already been paid to the Shroomery. They are just waiting for the banner to go up. Anyways, you guys should check it out.

-I figured since they have already paid it is okay to post this here. If not, please delete this.-

You can't go wrong with mycoshack - I've never met a better vendor of mycology supplies.
Just place one order with them and you'll never go to anyone else :grin:

Yup! I spoke with the owner again. They have indeed paid. So this post is legitimate. I love their new web design. I've placed an order already.

$60 dollars for a Taylor hygrometer.

$50 for the same hygrometer plus a FC, bag of perlite and air pump.

THAT doesn't make sense .

Well , here's my problem right now.

I've spent almost a year on here telling peeps how good Taylor Hygrometers are . Even to the point of giving a few away so other peeps could use them and see how good they work so they could help spread the word .

Then YOU come along and want to sell a $37 retail hygrometer , 20-25 on E-Bay, for $60 + shipping . And you're not paying retail if you're ordering any kind of quantity from a supplier .

When I shop for supplies , if I go into a store and see a 10 quart bag of verm for $12.95 , I know I'm shopping in the wrong place . :thumbup:

Sorry, I just don't want any of my friends listening to me about how they're the best and then pay 3 times what it should cost them.

I just thought the sponsors were here to help the community and make some money .

You don't have to worry about ME buying anything from you, just want to protect some who might.

Sorry, but you asked what the problem is and I happen to be the kind of person who speaks their mind .

Now, since a lot of peeps on here have gotten that Taylor based on what I've said , if you wanted to give me a $10 commision on everyone you sell , maybe I'll STFU , LMAO.

Peace,Love,Happiness and Harmony
:heart: Hippie Chick  :mushroom2:



I understand wanting to make a profit , but come on  :mad2:

Then, on top of that, the day you become a sponsor, a thread gets posted in the grow log of a grow with your poo that got 7 flushes . Unfortunately there was only 1 pic, that being the seventh flush. No pics of the first 6, just the seventh. Sounded like a darn infomercial , Asked why no pics of the first 6 and was told it didn't get worth taking a pic till the seventh cause that was amazing. Tell ya what , I've been doing this awhile now and anything after 4 good flushes is boardering on amazing . I would have been taking pics from that point on. Too many coincidences for me.

Maybe the price on mycoshack's website are a bit too high on some products but I see a vendor that sell his stuff Way too much and people still buy them.The website that I'm talking about sell 12 pf style jar for 60$ .Mycoshack sell 24 for 60$, thats definitly better.Its sure that the best is to buy the stuff at the cheaper price, online shop is good to help people that doesn't find the stuff in a store. Peace HippieChick

Is this vendor one of our SPONSORS ?

I'll give you the name of a vendor that sells syringes for $100 a piece if you need it,lol.

Would that mean our sponsors selling them for $50 a piece is a deal ?

Peace,Love,Happiness and Harmony
:heart: Hippie Chick  :mushroom2:


PS. Thought I might have jumped the gun a little so I decided to check our sponsors for prices on pre-sterilized BRF jars just to be fair. Only found one other sponsor who had them, maybe there are more, didn't see any , and they sold them 12 for $34.99 compared to Mycoshack that has them at 12 for $45.00. Did notice the 1000 CC plastic spawn containers the Shack sells at 10 for $29.99 at another sponsor for 10 at $12.50 .

Thanks for having me check things out a little more :thumbup:


Sorry for seeming like such a BITCH , but after spending the last year + trying to help and watch out for my fellow shroomerites , some habits just die hard . :grin:

Maybe I'd feel better if they changed their name to MycoMANSION

Ugh, look, we have a lot of costs to cover, if you don't want to order from us, then don't. And as far as the grow log deal, I can't comment on that but I can tell you that we've been in business longer than we've been here, and I have n control over what other post lol...

Anyway, some of our items are a tad expensive, but as anyone who's ordered from us will tell you, it's worth it!

I understand what you're doing, but please just back off of us a little bit. Most of our stuff is real reasonable, but it's expensive to start a business....

How can a $37 hygrometer , retail , be worth $60+ shipping ?

Does it come with a dozen roses ? Cause I always love flowers after getting FUCKED , LMAO .

Why should the MEMBERS of the Shroomery be expected to fund your start up costs ?

Ever heard of a small businees loan ?

I'm not into paying 3 times the cost of items so YOU can start up a buisness , don't think many on here will . That's not how it works .

Do you go into the new Pizza parlor and pay $40 for a large pie because the place is new and it's expensive to start up a business ?
Or do you go somewhere else ?

I haven't seen anything on your site reasonable at all , let along REAL reasonable !

You have the option of not buying stuff from them.

Your starting to sound like a broken record now...since you made your point clearly known in this whole thread.

lolzz

Evidently you don't like their prices...so go buy your stuff else where!~

problem solved!~

In our defense, we're not doing it for the money - and you knowo what, a lot of sponsors sell things for way more than they cost retail.....it's the name of the game! And, I think you misunderstood me - but it doesn't matter now......

As for the jars, I think the price is quite reasonable considering what all goes into them! It's not just brf/verm/water lol......and besides, what we're really charging for there is the labor. Everyone knows it's cheaper to do it yourself, but some people don't have the time, don't have the interest, etc....that's generally who buys our jars!

As for the Taylor, yeah, $60 is a bit much; you have a good point! There, happy?

LOL....

I wouldn't say that the Shroomery doesn't care about it's members, but I have noticed that threads that deal with complaints about a sponsor get locked quickly or the person complaining gets flamed. When a non-sponsor is talked about positively, the threads also seem to get locked, but always remain open if it's a complaint about a non-sponsor.

This isn't exactly a fortune 500 type of business, so I'm sure alot of start up non-sponsor sites can't afford to pay the $200+ sponsorship fees here. That doesn't mean that the company sucks, just that they don't have the $$ to be a sponsor.

Granted, the sponsors pay the Shroomery bills. I do see where HC is coming from though. This place shouldn't become the Microsoft of the OMC.

Let's not forget, we're all part of the Online Mushroom Community :peace:

Ya know. I couldnt agree more..We do not aim to be the "Microsoft of the OMC." We do want to be a quality based-business and make our customers happy. Instead of flaming us, just speak with us. If you feel something is not fair, we will surely speak about it. We may even come to the conclusion of changing it! Just don't jump so quick to label us as bad. There are quirks in everything. We are just now upping our business. We are open to suggestions all the time. We are going to be opening contests and discounts and even coupons for Shroomery members. You guys are our business. We do not want you to think you are being treated unfairly. Hippiechick just jumped on us. Hippie is a great girl. I've followed her posts before. Just cut us some slack, please.

I wasn't gearing that comment so much towards you guys, just the way the system seems to work around here. Mike O' was charging $50 per dozen jars and I didn't hear too many people bitching about that.

I understand where HC is coming from and I also understand where you guys are coming from. There is alot of overhead involved in business, especially a new one. HC just doesn't want to see anyone get ripped off, but it is THEIR choice whether to buy or not.

My problem is when threads get locked and people get flamed for posting negatively about a sponsor here. That's a form of censorship any way you slice it. This forum should be an environment where people can voice their opinion freely, GOOD or BAD.

Not trying to knock you guys. Business is business and people have the choice whether or not to do business with you guys. :peace:

I understand. I agree 110%. We do not want to rip anyone off. I have been here at the Shroomery for quite some time. Which is why I know HC is a great person. She doesn't want to anyone to get ripped off. We are not going to rip anyone off. We are not like (the 100$ a syringe guy, won't mention him here.) Alot of labor and such goes into our products. Not all of them, but the jars and such. If we just started lowering all of our prices under everyone elses, we could start another fight between vendors! Not something we want to do. If you feel our prices are unfair, we will take it into serious consideration. I have nothing but love for this community. It is really difficult to get a business going well. We have been open for some time now, but nothing really serious. We are ready for that step-up which is why we are here. Everything we make is made for best quality. We apologize for any inconveniences. If you wish to speak with us about something PM me or email us at admin@mycoshack.com

Enough bullshit, bottom line:

*It is your own job to be a good consumer and make wise buying decisions. Research products first, read reviews, check for warranties, ask questions, I do you should too.

*You can't blame sponsors for taking advantage of the demand and setting prices accordingly. If someone wants to pay for the convience of not wandering around Walmart and other super stores buying obscure items let them PAY.

I agree with hippie and the vendor its a toss up, I see their kits are reasonably priced, I see other web sites selling similar kits for twice what mycoshack is offering them
I do think some of the prices on other stuff is ridiculous but I dont know where their source for the products is, he might have to charge that much to make a profit
This is why we have the economics we have in this country, its competition, when I buy something over the net I always shop around if someone is charging a lot for something I just simply dint buy from them, its their loss......

Then somtimes stores rip you off, I just bought a hydor heater it cost me 40 bucks at petco, they are selling a inccubator kit with the same heater for 49.99, sounds like a good deal to me..

I agree with hippiechick. This is a community, and its based on the fact that everyone contributes what they can. The shroomery itself can contribute a huge market, honestly. I don't think that should be taken advantage of for profit. Its like buying a commercial or something. I guess I thought the sponsors on here were selected by a group that had certain standards.

Maybe I'm under the wrong assumption, in any event, I finally have money and was going to make a donation to the shroomery for their extensive information and friendly helpful community. People like hippiechick had amazing set-ups, and helped me tremendously. This is really making me rethink who I want to support. And sadly, Hippiechick is one of the most helpful giving people on this board. She doesn't charge for her advice, and she donates her time and effort. Other people like me donate money because we are grateful to a community with standards. There are a lot of other awesome people here, but hippiechick will be missed by many.

I kinda wanted to believe this was the utopia of people helping each other, not one more place to grossly overcharge people who just haven't learned that everyone will fuck you over hiding behind the cry of capitalism.

the admins have obviously accepted money so that another vendor may advertise here.

big fucking deal.  :rolleyes:

they didn't say:

"this is the place to buy from"
"buy from this company or leave the site"
"they are the best"

the admins have presented multiple vendors to purchase from. some vendors charge more than others. some sell different products. it's up to you to check them out and decide which is the best for you to buy from.  as long as the vendor is honest, there shouldn't be a problem.

Well, a lot of reasons! Love of the community, desire to "spread the knowledge," etc.. Not everyone is money-hungry, ask anyone who has actually dealt with us......I spend 12-14 hours a day working/corresponding and I barely make a dime........why do I do it? Because I LOVE it!

And I didn't mean that the Taylor was so expensive because of OUR startup, basically that we're somewhat new and not all of our sources are the best - IN FACT AFTER CHECKING, WE WERE PAYING WAY TOO MUCH FOR THOSE TEMP/HUM GAUGES!! So there ya go - they'll be a lot cheaper, HOPEFULLY soon.

Sorry you guys are getting the 3rd degree! :crazy:

There are other sponsors here that are charging just as much (if not more) for similar items, so I think it's unfair to come down on you guys in particular. It's business. I think your biggest mistake was including the Taylor brand into your lineup :lol:

Anyways, good luck to you and your company. As long as you stay honest with your customers, I don't see any problems for you guys.

I don't know why everyone is giving these guys such a hard time.  Practically  EVERY vendor I've been to on here sells things for more than I can find them elsewhere, or more than the cost of making it myself.

They have to make some sort of profit guys....What would be the point of being in business if you have to sell everything at cost?  It's not easy to compete with large companies.

You are paying in part for the labor put into some of the "hand made" products, as well as the luxury of having a "one stop shop".

Shopping around and finding the best price is up to you....I don't think these guys are trying to screw anyone over....If you don't like the prices go elsewhere.

Having good, reliable, vendors in general is a luxury in my opinion, and I wouldn't really mind throwing in a few extra bux to them....even if I can find it cheaper elsewhere.

I love hippiechick, and think she is a sweetheart...as well as being very knowledgeable in cultivating...as well as having a great ass :ass: ....but for her to leave, and go and delete all of her posts with the reason: "The Shroomery is a sellout"...is rather childish...and harsh. 

If you care about the shroomerites hippie, you should have at least left your information available to them if you were going to leave.  By deleting your posts, you only hurt them.

Well, that's fine....that is something they are going to have to work out in the long run based on their sales.

I just think it's a little unfair that these guys are getting singled out, when a lot of other vendors do similar things. As they said, they are still working things out on the site....give the guys a chance before jumping down their throats.

They are only double and triple prices on a few items, a lot of mycoshacks stuff is cheaper than any other vendor.

I wont mention their name but a shroomery sponsor on here is selling a inccubator kit, it comes with 2 tubs, a fish tank heater, and a thermometer they are selling it for 149.99!!!!!!!

Mycoshack offers a similar kit for 49.99 so whats the problem here?
Should we start doing this to every vendor? NO, they all have overpriced things because their sources arent cheap on certain items,

So stop dogging mycoshack, he said he was going to find another source and fix the problem, so let the man work, if he is as reliable and trustworthy as he says then we will see the price drop soon.,

You are paying in part for the labor put into some of the "hand made" products, as well as the luxury of having a "one stop shop".

Shopping around and finding the best price is up to you....I don't think these guys are trying to screw anyone over....If you don't like the prices go elsewhere.

Having good, reliable, vendors in general is a luxury in my opinion, and I wouldn't really mind throwing in a few extra bux to them....even if I can find it cheaper elsewhere.

I like hippiechick, and think she is a sweetheart...as well as being very knowledgeable in cultivating...as well as having a great ass :grin:....but for her to leave, and go and delete all of her posts with the reason: "The Shroomery is a sellout"...is rather childish...and harsh. 

If you care about the shroomerites hippie, you should have at least left your information available to them if you were going to leave.  By deleting your posts, you only hurt them.




Thank you - I couldn't have put it better myself.

And, our prices aren't that bad; yes the Temp/Humidity Gauges were too expensive, but as I've already stated we were paying too much for them!  Problem will be fixed!
As for everything else, I think they're quite reasonable.  As already stated we didn't want to start a price war here, so we actually raised the price on some things a very small amount.  C'mon, we have the cheapest culture prices I have seen anywhere!

And, for that bit about wanting to spread the knowledge, I'm sorry that you don't believe me!  I don't know what else I can say about it, but I've been here a while and been helped quite a bit by people - so I am trying to return the favor by offering a one-stop shop, and by offering some of the best customer service/help out there.  Don't get me wrong, the vendors here are absolutely amazing - but there's no reason to single us out.  Again, ASK ANYONE WHO HAS DEALT WITH US, WHETHER THEY BOUGHT SOMETHING OR NOT - WE ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS AND 0FFER ADVICE WHENEVER WE CAN!

Anyway, this thread is going nowhere....

I must say, as someone who used to grow mushrooms and hung out on the cultivation forums for a long time back in the day, I am seriously disappointed with this
"sponsor", "vendor", "theif", whatever you want to call them.

To blatently say outright that "oh yeah its over retail, but thats the name of the game!"... (thats the name of the game if you're playing "extortion") is ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. You guys should be completely ashamed of yourself.

If you have a problem with criticism, FIRST OFF, DONT COME TO THE SHROOMERY! its a community, with many people who tend to get pissed off when its obvious some jerk is trying to rip other shroomerites off.

Second off, if you can't deal with people complaining about your prices, DONT OPEN A BUSINESS! Its called free press, freedom of expression, and freedom to drop a dime to other people when someone is inflating their prices like a hot air baloon.

RETAIL, is RETAIL, its the highest price people are expected to pay by the manufacturer. You guys are worse than car dealerships that put 10% markups on vehicles!

It also becomes obvious you guys have no clue what you're doing and are probably buying all your products for retail which is why your prices are so high.

Stop crying about people complaining about your prices. Its part of owning a business. Stop asking for people to take it easy on you. Its a business. If you want to STOP people from tearing you a new hole, STOP ripping people off and appease the market by lowering your prics... If you can't do that, you can't expect to run a successful business.

Best of luck, looks like you need it.

In our defense, we're not doing it for the money




really?  why exactly would someone get into the business then if it wasnt for the money




Well, a lot of reasons!  Love of the community, desire to "spread the knowledge," etc..  Not everyone is money-hungry, ask anyone who has actually dealt with us......I spend 12-14 hours a day working/corresponding and I barely make a dime........why do I do it?  Because I LOVE it!





look, I'm definitely not trying to flame you guys, or your Mycoshack, Shroomery needs vendors & there sponsorship fees. 

But NO ONE sells anything, because they love it.  Setting up websites, gathering equipment, and knowledge, all cost TIME & Money. And you should be reimbursed for your effort.  But don't claim that you just love it.  If that were the case, you would be a non-profit organization, and donate all the proceeds to the Online Mushroom Community.

I wouldn't expect that, and I doubt HC would either, but what I would expect is that your pictures match your descriptions.
You guys at Mycoshack seem so set on defending yourself that you have alienated HC and possibly others.  You admit that the wrong Hydrometers are in your pictures.  HC was just trying to pointing that out IMHO.
If the prices don't make sense to HC, and it should be obvious to anyone who know about those Taylor Hydrometers [HC says they shouldn't cost 1/2 that price] why keep asking her questions?

Im not trying to Flame Mycoshack, I doubt I'll ever order from them, but I already have reliable sponsors (Ralph you got next, cause you sent me a totally FREE AUS syringes about 10 months ago).  I just think that Mycoshack could have ended all this very EARLY.

Had they just posted : I'm sorry that our pictures do NOT match our descriptions,  We understand how this could be confusing to everyone, especially newbies who don't know much about this hobby.  Thank you HippieChick for point out our discrepancies, and your diligence in fighting for newbies rights, who wouldn't know any better without you.  Without your knowledge and willingness to help newcomers, with little benefit to yourself, none of us sponsors could survive in this community.

Instead you just used a blanket defense of 'were working on it'
Kinda weak :rolleyes: especially if we start losing knowledge because of this.

Yeah, agreed. That, and I think people are severely misunderstanding me! I never "cried" or anything about people complaining, I simply asked HC to back off a little! I have no problem with critisism, and yes - some of our products are over retail; deal with it, shit, don't buy it then!

As for why we're doing this, sure, we want to make some money. I honestly don't care if I make any money above paying off our expenses and having enough to live on, and I DON'T live lavishly..... I am sorry it's so hard to believe, but mycology is my life and I thoroughly enjoy doing it everyday. I guess I can't convince anyone why we're doing it, so PLEASE close this thread!!
