3 week wait for Ralphster normal?

I was wondering if anybody else ordered from ralphster and waited 3 weeks after they sent in their order and actually eventually recieved their orders. I've read all the posts and know that Ralphster is a reliable source to order from, but i dont know if maybe the package got lost in the mail or something. I sent him an email and he said he had recieved my order and sent out my package. Just seeing if maybe i should order from another vendor, or if I still have a chance of recieving my order. Also if anyone could inform me as to what method he sends out his packages (fedex or what).

When did he receive your order? It's been almost two weeks and he hasn't said anything about recieving mine.

Yeah I guess I'm gonna go sporeworks as well, although it's probably not Ralphsters fault I can't take a risk and go to the same place when this kind of thing happens.

You guys should PM Ralphster to see what's going on. The usual turnaround from him is about a business week. LOL.

I hope this response wasn't directed at me, if you remember I pmed you asking you to switch my order to brazillians if that was possible and asked you to please e-mail me as soon as you got my order so I could have an estimate of when it'd get here.
I'm not blaming it on you, but maybe the someone in the postal service has caught on somehow and is taking some of the orders for himself or something, I really don't know, but if my order never go to you then it is lost in the mail or found by a mailman. I honestly sent out a $20 order in the mail last monday, rechecked your address and my address to make sure nothing would get screwed up, stamped and sent, asked you to e-mail me when you recieved it through PM and made a thread when I didn't get an e-mail after almost two weeks asking people what might have happened, but I haven't attacked you personally in any way so theres no reason to get angry. I don't even know if I'm going to go to sporeworks I was just saying that because it was the only vendor i thought of, i'm still searching around.
I think its possible that with all the storms that my letter was delayed by a longshot but if not I have lost hope and think it'd be best just to send out more money and hope it doesn't get wasted away like my last $20 might have. It's a risky thing, mail ordering money, but nothing will stop me from growing, I have planned this and worked on it for too many months now and this final ingredient is just being a pain in the ass for me, but it will all be worth it in the long run.

Ralphster...I have sent you 2 pm's since ive sent my order in; the first one u said you were sick and that my order was shipped, and i was still hopefull. I then sent you another pm becuase my order was over 3 weeks late and you have STILL yet to send me a response back. In fact you responded to this post after i sent you that pm. I'm not trying to badmouth you im just saying that I am not pleased with this service at all and am out 50 dollars. I also really dont appreciate you badmouthing ME and calling ME a liar, thats really not professional at all. I am entitled to my opinion and i felt like i was curtious throughout this entire post; that was UNTIL you straight up called me a liar. From all the posts I read you were the best vendor on this site, but from this experience I have decided I will never order from you again.

Another thing, if all three of our orders got lost and we ordered about the same time maybe it was something on Ralphster's side when he sent them out. Maybe try calling to post office or something if you sent all three of our orders at the same time. I worked at the post office for a little bit and wouldnt put it past them.

I'm out $20, not alot of money or anything but two other people are missing orders too. I have emailed Ralphster and he told me he never received the order. And I did email you about my order Ralphster. My email is arval@tds.net. I even posted a thread about you being sick, I wouldnt go this far to support another vendor, it's not that big a deal but either way I'm still out $20. No one called you an idiot Ralph, just look at this and hear us out, we lost money. It doesnt seem like your handling yourself to professionally.

I think I smell a couple puppets out there.. this seems like one person with a vendatta.. Ralphster has alwyas been a great guy and has always gone way above and beyond to fix any error on his part (and sometimes even on the buyer's part) I hate reading this slanderous bullshit that people make public instead of going about it the proper way and addressing the vendor directly in an effort to fix the problem..

There is no vendetta here, and I already tried PMing ralph. He hasn't responded to my pm's after my first one so i brought it out here. I'm just trying to get what i paid $50 for. Yes i have read the posts and saw that everyone respects and values Ralph; this is why i chose him as my first vendor to buy spores from. I originally pmed ralph and tried to get the package number or something so i could track it using the usps website and he never responded to my pm. The real slander here is everyone posting against me, i started this thread to ask a simple question and everyone is attacking me and others that post with me in agreement.

I emailed him. I went to him directly, I lost money. I licked the envelope myself, I dropped it in the mailbox myself. I can't vouch for the other two but I sent my money in and now I have nothing to show for it, I never said it was Ralphster's fault or that he ripped me off but since this happened to me goin through him I'm not gonna take the chance and do it again. Can't someone check the IP adresses or something see if these really are puppet accounts? Someone should close this thread like Ralphster said cause it's just gonna get ugly.

The way it sounds we did contact him, all of us. None of us said we were ripped off but none of us received what we ordered either, I'm gonna say that's prolly the mail got lost or crooked postal workers or some other unknown reason. Ralphster doesnt seem to carry himself to much like a businessman, sounds like he's paranoid. We're out to ruin his reputation? That's beyond me why anyone would go to this length to do that. Before he called us kids and implied that we're liars he shoulda looked into this and contacted us, just hear us out.

Yea he's a very goood businessman and it show in they way he carried himself about the whole deal, paranoid like someones out to get him theres a vendettta???!?!?! Someone's out to ruin his good name and I guess we called him idiots too. NOTE: that none of us called him an idiot. Seems like people get a high post count from postin about how other peoples post count is so low. He shoulda looked into it before indirectly callin us liars and kids, matters fact I'm gon post the email messages me and him talked about this. I hope everyone especially you cyberthreat realize that postcount is nothing and that possibly a couple of your fellow shroomerites got ripped off by the mail. Let's look at the big picture. I mean is this situation that absurd three of us lying for no reason? just look at it hear it.

I was in contact with him, him callin me a liar and a kid? He's a businessman you people keep sayin? Even with the name calling? Are we in pre-school again? the only thing I hope that anyone takes from this thread is how he carried himself. He doesnt want to work on the problems, he'd rather just close the thread. Why close the thread? Three orders are lost, just hide the truth from potential buyers? I think this is somethin that someone should know....AND IN FULL MY EMAIL CONVERSATIONS I HAVE HAD WITH RALPH< SO BEFORE YOU CALL ANYONE A LIAR, AT LEAST KNOW WhAT YOU ARE TALKIN ABOUT. Oh yea I just wrote a bunk adress to you, that musta been what happened, silly me right? Just send my good hard earned money in the mail with a fake return adress why not? It's not like money doesnt grow on trees.
I dont see it....sorry

I'm almost up to 30 postcount, eventually I'll just post bullshit so maybe then people will take me seriously, since post count is godly around here. No one even pays attention to the issue at hand They just look at the post count and comment on that. So maybe someone will realize postcount is nothin or it is everything. We're all liars look at our postcounts, it's sick. I don't rememeber any of us bad mouthing a vendor actually but all of us ordered and none of us received, we didnt go off and call him a liar or a kiddy like he did us. That's what I want a "businessman" callin his customers names like he's in preschool

If post count is determines trust than I guess you can trust me, I've been here a very long time even before I created this account and I think I have good couple hundred posts now. As for being a good businessman, I asked Ralph if 1) Can you switch my order to brazillians from cambodians? 2) Can you e-mail me when you recieve payment? His answer was this, and I quote,
"I'll look...try to fix if possible... Thank you"
I'm not really sure how many businessmen give suchanswers, but still I guess that means "yes" to both questions, or like a maybe to the first, ok to the second, or, I don't know. I'm just telling you what happened, you can determine for yourself if that's carrying yourself in a business like manner, not trying to bash anyone.
I hate how people are brown nosing these vendors, if people get bad service they shouldn't be bashed especially if we're not bashing the vendor in the first place, we're just telling our story. By butt kissing you don't keep a vendor on his toes to keep a good reputation, which could result in less consumer satisfaction, and I'm not talking about just Ralph but any vendor, and that means less happy people. What is with all the butt kissing? No one really here is saying its Ralphs fault, we're just telling people what happened and we have the right to say that without others telling people its lies. Then the people aren't getting the full story if they think its all lies and that's BS, it isn't right for the people. People should be allowed to see the result of everyone's online purchase.
