DR. Bluethumbs -- missing raffle prizes?

Hi,
I won one of the shroomery raffle prizes a couple months ago, I have not received my stuff from DR Bluethumbs, I have sent a few emails, and got a few good excuses, but I think almost 3 months is plenty of time to wait.
I received prizes from sporeworks, Micron Magick, and sporelab really fast. (All received around April 2nd)
I was wondering if any other raffle winners have not received their prizes that DR Bluethumbs donated?

i ordered a syringe from him. the spores died in the mail cause they never germed. so i told him and asked him to replace it, and he gave me the run around a couple times and finally said he would replace it with my next order. now im not sure i want to place another order.

Please don't add me to the drbluethumb's casulty list i have been waiting for two weeks now and i need my stuff bad. I have cake i want to spawn my order from drbluethumb with and do a few other things with it. The way things look I am going to get the shaft. I cann't believe I made the mistake of ordering from a company that i have read so many negative posts about DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE AND FUCK YOUR SELF BY ORDERING FROM THIS COMPANY

I think Dr Bluethumbs has gone missing. I have an order that I have been waiting for patiently also and was told that it was in the mail two weeks ago. No reply from emails. Just wondering when the last time anyone has actually recieved an order from him. Getting a bit worried.

guitarguy,
I've just read he has been away.... you are right it seems about a week. But wait, when did we all win our prizes? Oh yea, in March...What is todays date, July 1st. I just wanted to see if Dr Bluethumbs has sent out any prizes... from the responses and pm's it seem that other people got stiffed too...
Maybe you'd feel upset too if you bought raffle tickets to support the shroomery (like everyone should have) and then a vendor who promised to send prizes goes back on his word. Maybe some people even depend on these prizes to put food on the table.
Thanks blak

I dont mean to flame at all but i have never, ever heard a single good thing about Bluethumbs. He is always having family emergencies when he is supposed to give someone money or anything important comes up. Alot of orders dont get shipped or take months to get to the buyer. He makes up alot of excuses, he rarly replaces dead syringes. I dont like him and will never order from him. Now if you really are having a family emergency, im sorry!

Bluethumbs is loosing buisness with every thread that sais "Where is my syringe , "where is my order" , "why wont you answer my PMs" etc. Maybe he is having a family emergency, who knows but while he was still here these complaints were still being posted. No reason to bicker between one another, its him that will suffer in the long run.

For the hoodies\ shirts, I still thin we need about 3-4 more orders before they can be made. Let alone shipped out.

the biggest concerns are communication - lack of communication and disinformation. honestly, back in the fall of last year or early this year (i'm horrible at estimating time), all i heard was GOOD STUFF about the dr. i finally ordered some compost and spores at the end of april, and didn't get them 'til early june - around a month and a half later.
initially, he supposedly hired some guys that didn't work out. i fully understand that, but twice i was told it was going to ship "at this particular time" or that "it was shipped a couple days ago" and it never showed up. all that time i was waiting, the dr. kept posting new sales and specials and i thought, "how can they be offering specials when they're already a month or more behind in existing orders?"
anyway, then he gets this new employee that's supposed to be his public-relations guy, but i think he needs to work on a new mission statement or something, 'cause he doesn't really seem to be disseminating much info to the masses.
that's why we need a watchdog setup like they have with the mary jane seedbanks. you rate all of the purchases you make as far as quickness and quality and overall satisfaction, with all the results tabulated and averaged.
was dimitri the one who was actually performing the drawing for the raffle as well? i.e., i know ganj didn't get the cash, but was the drawing also not held? i would like to know i won something, even if i knew it wasn't ever going to make it to me
take care... stay safe... -bizarro
