Very nice site! Everyone should visit this link.
Be sure to keep it up to date, I think vendor involvement will be important on this aspect.

i looked at that page and its totally incomplete . The vendor country isnt listed (i would rather buy something for $10CDN than $10US, and shipping costs and risk of crossing borders) and i noticed one vendors syringes were costly at first glance, but when i went to the vendor site the syringes were bigger than most.
It really is incomprehensive, too much data is missing. Comparison shopping should not be made by just looking at this. Go to each vendor site and see EXACTLY what they have to offer

You could just generalize by placing them in an overall star count rating. Like 5 being the best. Grennman does this for seedbanks and it works well. A simple system that covers all around service. The ratings have to be generated from calculated scales between the positive and negative emails, and you will have to develope a sense of who is legit or not. Its a shaky way tp put it, but it works for the most part me thinks.

As this is saving time and exposing the prices of as many vendors as possible. All that is missing is the rating system to make sure that not only price is considered. Given that this is a new thing and it has been done so well (for a first try) I think any vendor who criticises it should do it politely.
People like ryche, who's prices are not the extreme cheapest (but not expensive either) I'm sure will come around to the idea when they see the 5 stars rating them. 1-5 dollars to pay extra on top of a sporeprint order for a good print and prompt delivery is hardly going to break the bank.
Personally I'd like to see this page moved to a permanent hosting spot on the shroomery (if it takes off) because geocities are terrible. Whether this is a conflict of interest towards the vendors who pay to advertise on the site I don't know.

Rating system seems not to be a good idea to john. WHAT would be the criteria... Who would have input... A few late orders and ... someone goes from 5 to 3 "stars" ?... who would be the judge... the only rating you need is crook or not crook... crooks would want to stay away from the board? Maybe..I don't know...BUT I really like the site as it is !!

It is merely listing prices, which is factual information.....
The prices are the same that can be found on the vendors' sites.
I don't see anywhere spelled out that one is cheaper than another, and it's certainly not listed from cheapest to most expensive.
You are naturally in competition anyways....... Every time a new page is opened @ the Shroomery, I see a different vendor's banner....... It's all a matter of the quality of your product................... If your product is worth a shit, you needn't be worried about the price you are charging.
As far as a rating system goes, on service, products, item availability, experience, etc..... that would really be a bias approach, but whatever.
Peace,
Paco

Its not good practice for any site like the shroomery to host such a page. It was tried in the past with seedbank ratings and the critics came out of the woodwork. Cannabis.com has one and hardly noone relies on it, they go to Greenman, which is independently run on his own self. If one really is dedicated, such a site can be hosted for like 6$ a month and the domain purchased for 20$ a year, and can still be anonymous.
