spores101 false advertising

I know every 1 here is going going to ask so yes I did give them a chance to explain... I put in my order for pesa with the code shroomery in the code box and comment box...this is what they had to say to me The deal is for 5$ off... enter code shroomery for 5$ off. We have no offer for a free syringe. If you get a free syringe then be thankful but the code you used was for 5$ off.
And sometimes we include a free syringe. But that is not a guaranteed situation, its based on our current stock and sales for that week.
I don't know what thread your talking about, sorry for any confusion but you need to PM the person who made the thread.
The only deal I know about with spores101.com and Shroomery is for what I described above.
and the spores 101.com post specifically stated 2 for 10 I planned on doing business with these people I just switched from sporeworks who I have been doing business with for some time

I always thought that code was for $5 off. I don't really see how that's a terrible deal. I've never had a problem with spores101. They sent me a syringe one time that contaminated every jar that I inoculated with it, and I let them know, and they reimbursed me for my troubles.
So, what's the problem?

We don't falsy advertise. The deal is the deal but you have to order 1 syringe and enter "shroomery" into the customer comments AND the customer tracking and they will send you 2 syringes for the price of one.
I don't know who you talked to but I answer all of the emails and I never said that...even if I did you can't go posting private emails with vendors on the forums.

Call me crazy, but I believe Spores101. They're the only company I've used for ordering mycology study spores, and they're the damn best at their deals. Spores101 rocks! It does state that you will get one free syringe (not edibles or exotic) when you use the 'Shroomery' promotion code and put in something about you heard it from the Shroomery in the 'Comments' box. All numerous times I've ordered (a lot) I've received a free syringe. I don't want to sound harsh, but still having $5.00 off is a damn good deal.
EDIT: Spores101, are we making little spore babies or what? You never answered me

I appoligize for posting the email on the forum I if you would like to pm then that is fine..I got upset when I saw the sig and then got this email.. I can go in more details in a pm... I am sorry if I offended anyone but I felt when ordering you should get what is stated.. I might have still ordered for 5 dollars off... I am just upset I received this in the expectation of 2 syringes and sporestore sent me a contaminated syringe a couple days ago so please understand my frustration.. I would like to resolve this issue as I am looking for a new reliable vendor..thank you

They seem like a nice company. I've never had any issues with them, other then them using other peoples pictures.
Why didn't you PM them ?

Like I said...Spores101 is a really good place to go with. Remember that the BEST way to get in contact with any vendor is directly using their e-mail support or if needed, use on-site private messages. :-) Keep rockin mycology

While we do not condone posting a PM on the Shroomery, I can see where your frustration might be. In the future though, please do not post personal messages in open forum. The reason we do not allow this is because those messages are considered private and the propensity to alter the PM is great.
On another note, we absolutely encourage this type of discussion. We have this forum for the vendors to advertise specials and products, but more importantly to allow our members to openly discuss concerns with our vendors. I think you'll find that we are quite fair to both parties.
Welcome back!

So, what's the problem?
that's really nice of them considering that with my syringes i got a card saying they are for microscopy purposes only.
i have nothing but good things to say about spores101. on my order i fucked up the address and they were kind enough to resend it and only charge me for shipping.

I do not feel like going through the whole spore vendor links but here are two
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/7372092/an/0/page/1 http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/7300885/an/0/page/2 also I am not sure if you looked at any post of spores101.com look at the bottom his signature www.spores101.com an Innersight Trading company.
$10 for 2 syringes! Enter "shroomery" into promotional code and customer tracking options and receive 2 syringes for $10 (plus shipping)
this is really a lot more than I expected I just wanted to inform and bring either spores101 or the people the knowledge of what occurred incase he did not know..

No offense, but that's not false advertising. If you do enter the promo code in and enter something about the shroomery in the 'Customer Comments' box, you will get an additional syringe.

After speaking with my partners it seems that the promo is a little confusing so we have decided to try and make it a little easier to understand..look for that soon.

I offered this customer to send his missing freebie plus another freebie as well on his next purchase which he said he might be making next week.
