You know honestly before I stumbled across this forum I thought the whole world was shit. I thought that everybody was just out for themselves. I thought there was no honesty,niceness,or caring left. After seeing and experiencing the trust and respect that people on this board have for somebody they have never even seen in person is astonishing. It really makes me feel good inside. I am glad to see that there are still some trustworthy people in this world.

I think most vendors and members here are honest.. me as everyone knows from time to time can be a asshole but I wouldnt cheat a person out of a nickel, and I dont think 99.99 percent of the vendors here would cheat people. I can honestly say i ve never ordered anything from the shroomery that I didnt recieve promptly and with all the free help I needed. If a order has been messed up it was replaced no questions ask. I think we are all a bunch of different personalities and are going to clash from time to time but for the most part everyone i ve came into contact with has been honest.

Thanks Ralph, but there really was no need to post this. My wife and I were dumfounded when we received the package. The only right thing to do was to send you the package back. I think everyone would have done the same thing. But maybe not, this really makes me start thinking about my upbringing. We should ALL have good parents, and my mom (1941-2001) really instilled good values in her children. Thanks Ralph, I will forever have your back!

Boxtop, It's ironic. At first everyone wanted to prejudge you and your business before getting to know you. People were trying to force you to prove yourself without giving you a fair and equal chance.
I'm truly glad to see that people are starting to come around and act civil. I only wish it was sooner. I find it unfortunate that it took this long. I?m also glad to see some of your critics coming around to.
You've always been a good guy in my book? By not cheating Ralph was definitely a gesture of good faith. It doesn?t surprise me because I never expected any less!
Peace!

Sorry if this sounds like a flame... it's not, but I checked your site mushroom madness, why in the world do you charge 25 - 30 dollars for a spore print, I can make one for the price of a syringe, or buy one at the FSR for a buck... Just asking why though, I don't mean to start any shit-

MM, you got P. cubensis spelled wrong on your page, " Psilcoybe Cubensis". Does this have a system?

Anno, Thanks for pointing out the grammatical error to me.
I don?t understand what you are making reference to when you say "Does this have a system?"... Please clarify!

I guess this passed everyone's attention, please refer to my post above. Is there something special about the prints you sell that make them so pricey... again, not a flame, I just need to know-

The prices you buy are much thicker of of much better quality - fresh. Ralph knows how to make a print.

Again, I'm refering to Mushroom Madness and the price they have for spore prints, not ralphster, <--- $25 for a cube print, thats madness... you still havent answered my question MM, so I'm forced to assume that you are avoiding it... Really, people shouldn't post here as vendors if their prices are this rediculous, it just tricks newbies into thinking your product is better, when in reality its just an overpriced print. I think every cultivator here will agree with me-

Although I am curious to here the answer, I think its unfair to assume MM is
avoiding your question in the middle of the night (in North America at least).
I also checked and he's not online. That was some unnecessary flaming.
But still MM, do enlighten us (it can wait until morning).

>Does this have a system?
I ment, did you do this on purpose, so you technically, at least on paper, aren?t selling spores of a psilocybin producing species?

I'm still unclear, but I am assuming that you are making reference to the verbage used. I'm simply protecting myself form irresponsible cultivators/researchers since Psilocybe spore prints along with many others are not legal to cultivate in many places. So I guess the answer to your question is yes.

Your question didn't pass my attention. I just find it to be a "loaded question." For the simple fact that you are emphasizing in your post that this is not a flame, clearly suggests that it is a flame. It may be suttle, but a flame is a flame. Ralph started this thread on a positive note. But I get the impression that you are trying to make this thread have a negative overtone.
Quality determines price... I don not want to give away the process we use to take spore prints (this is a trade secret). But I will say that the spore prints are taken in the most sterile environment on glass slides. There are a few storage techniques that we utilize to ensure the highest level of quality for our spore prints. We truly pride ourselves in this wonderful art. Everything we offer is backed by our satisfaction guarantee policy. This my friend is one of the many things that separates us from the others.
If you are legitimately interested in pricing, then you should be asking every vendor who sells prints to explain why they charge "x" amount of dollars for their prints. Just by simply doing a search, you will find that vendor's pricings for spore prints range from $15 - $80. I'm not going to make any reference to any specific vendors in regards to pricing because I do not get involved in flaming. I conduct myself, and my business in a positive, professional manner. I will simply leave it up to you, the consumer, to compare prices for yourself.

I apologize for being such a dick... check my posts, I havent ever flamed anyone for anything... I admit it turned into that, but my intention when i first posted to you was to understand why your prints were so high... You've answered my question and I'm happy; though I still don't agree with the prices. Anyways, sorry for the bullshit, I try not to act like that, I was in a different frame of mind at the time -
peace out-
roy
