Working in webhosting, I can also verify RR's right. I'm not any particular expert, but I see takedowns like that all the time, done easily.

I thought it was just one incident Ralph, not 5 of them. With that number of sites using your good name, you should have no problem taking the bastard down.

It doesn't really matter anymore because the guys web site which is the ralphster.com expires on October 2nd unless he extends his subscription. You can look up any web sites information simply by going to www.allwhois.com and from there you can at least see that ralphstersspores.com was created on April, 13th 2002 way long before this scam artist. *but one thing in my opinion that ralphstersspores.com needs to change is they payment options. If I could pay by credit card I'd be doing business with you. I'm just a little skeptical about sending straight cash or money orders. I've been ripped off so many times from ebay before they got pay pal. And others might see it the same way. You should look in to getting credit card or pay pal payments.*

You have been here long enough to know that Ralph is solid. He doesn't accept CC transactions out of consideration for privacy and legality. Use Spores101.com if you'd like the convenience of a credit card. The rest of us enjoy having no record, anywhere, and receiving spores from a very trusted source.
Ralph ran the largest free spore ring in America for years. He doesn't rip people off, period.

I've went through Ralphsters about 10 times now, always used a money order, always got my spores, and usually within 3 - 7 days of sending the money order out.

He did? .... wow that is admirable.
And I think sending cash through the mail is definitely more secure than punching your CC number into the internet.
Also Ralph is the best... and I wish i knew how to hack and stuff because I surely would fu#k up those other websites (and they would regret it if they tried to sue me for it )

Maybe when I finish law school I could take this case Pro bono to help give back to the community and to give me some experience. I would def go after this @ss hole!!! Ralphster, you're a great guy and I hate that this scum bag is using you for his gain. It's not right!

Ralphster ( of http://www.ralphstersspores.com/ ) is trustworthy. I, like you, was skiddish about mail order. Trust me on this one. It's worth it. I ordered from him last time I placed a spore order. I sent CASH. It took 7 days to get my order from the day I put the letter in the mail. I've ordered by credit card from several of the other vendors. Turn around time varies. It's generally three to five days from the day I placed my order to when I get the spores. I can tell you I didn't miss those 2-4 days once I had his spores in hand. He has very impressive products.
So you need not fear rip off from him. Rather you can expect excellence.
As a matter of fact I'll clue you into just how much I think of his products. I already have a lot of B+ strain that has some of the finest genetics of anything I've ever.... looked at under a microscope. (Keeping in mind I've only been doing this since last January.) I'm eager to get some of his B+ and see how it stands up.
Oh and to UN-hijack this thread. BOOOOOO sporespank!!! i mean bank.

I'll say I bought Treasure Coast from him about a month ago, I recieved the syring in the mail quick as hell. There was nothing on the box about the contents, the syringe had a simple "TC" on a circular sticker on it, and it was of the finest excellence.
It had so many spores in it, that the water looked brownish to purplish. Ralph is Gold, plain and simple.

The domain will not be available for some time after that expiry date. There is some grace time after the expiry date (atleast 4 weeks from memory) where the owner may renew. You can read up on the process of domain expiration everywhere but I doubt he will not renew.
As for getting those domains back. As with all arguments such as these they inevitably cause time and trouble. Personally Ralph, I feel your current domain name is a bit unfortunate.. due to length and the fact its not the type of thing that anybody would guess first so give it a shot.
Finally, no offence to you MFKDGAF but credit card is not a paper trail you can destroy. I think Ralph is losing some business by not offering this option but he is doing everybody who orders from him the favour of added security by forcing them to be safer

Captain Max at sporelab is a pimp with a promise. He makes everything go correctly and smoothly. Better yet he accepts paypal unlike Ralph.
