Spores101 Experience
    #7552133 - 10/23/07 06:28 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

Hello,

I just wanted to post my experience with Spores101 since I see there are many forums where people are asking where the best places are to buy from and questions about vendors.

I'm a first time grower and I recently purchased my syringe from Spores101. To my suprise,I got it pretty quickly- within a few days in descrete packaging as promised. Also, before I even purchased it, I filled out a contact form regarding a question, expecting it to be quite a while before I got a response as most online business' are, and within A FEW HOURS, I had a response waiting in my inbox from the staff. Now being a newbie at this, bound to making mistakes the first time, I inoculated my jars too close to the time of sterilyzation because I was unaware of the time you're sopposed to wait. I am still waiting to see what will happen, but I really wished I would have purchased multiples so I didn't have to wait to try again. Naturally, first time growers aren't really sure what to buy or what to expect, but I think that Spores101 is really the way to go and they have really great deals- espessually for newbies, like the deal of 3 syringes for $40 instead of paying $15 a piece. I REALLY wish I would have taken Spores101 up on their deal the first time, and it would have saved me from the problem I had. Next time I am DEFINATELY ordering from Spores101 again though.

So my advice from one newb to another is to definately to order your Spores from Spores101. I really regrett not taking them up on their really good deals and would reccomend getting multiples, which will be the next step I'm taking. Trust me- it's the way to go and Spores101 is fast, reliable, descreet, maintain good contact with their customers, and their products arrive in good condition. I don't know about other vendors, but I'm definately sticking to Spores101. :smile:

Hi welcome to the shroomery. Spores101 is a sponsor here and do a great job.

BUT

my advice from one newb to another is to



not talk about cultivation in this forum. The spores are for microscopy and taxonomy purposes only. (unless you live somewhere where it is legal to grow... I guess)

But anyways enjoy your stay here, and yes spores101 and the other sponsors here really go the extra (100) mile(s) for their customers.

Yes, very good advice Abesh.

I cant tell you how many unknowing customers we offend and ultimately lose because they feel like we should be answering their cultivation questions. I swear we have had emails just like these:

"Are these the spores I use to grow magic mushrooms?"

"I used your Ecuador strain on some rye grain I prepared myself and nothing happened. I want another."

We have to be a responsible company and protect ourselves and our customers that understand the protocol when ordering from a company like Innersight Trading.

We know there are other companies out there that are a lot more loose on these kind of policies but we just aren't.

Anyhow - this was a very good thread to further communicate our business ethics to the customer.

IWANNAROCK999 - thanks for the great feedback and PM me and I will get you hooked up with a sweet deal, I promise.

I had a customer today tell me that we have terrible service after I told him we can't answer his cultivation questions.

he then proceeded to tell me he has purchased from another shroomery vendor and hopes Spores101 is not around much longer.

I replied informing him that when they ask cultivation questions directly it puts all the vendors at risk, including yourself. I then gave him a refund minus the cost of shipping as they were not 100% satisfied with Spores101.com.

There is more than enough information online to answer ANY question, so please, show some respect for the vendors and try to NOT mention cultivation.

I got a PM from that member about that very situation and that is not what I was told. I was informed that the member was treated like dirt because they made the reference that it had been 6 days and no growth was seen. The member advised me that you responded that it can take 14 days for growth to show.

14 days!? Sure, if they're using the PF Tek. This member was using a liquid culture and I can tell from using hundreds of inoculates that growth has never taken 14 days using a liquid substrate. I think the biggest concern the member had was the fact that the syringe received was clear. Your site advertises syringes that show clumps of spores, so I can see the frustration there. I think your site even advertises "packed with spores." I did assure them that a clear syringe can be viable, but I think the damage had already been done. I'm pretty sure the entire syringe was used and no growth recorded (waiting on a response still).

I was privy to some of the correspondence that occurred between you two and I must say I was disappointed in the way she was treated. You acted like she just started cultivating and went as far as to call her underage and/or a law enforcement officer with no common sense just because there was an inference to cultivating.

I do not condone her speaking openly about cultivation and condemned it in my reply, but I cannot stand by your treatment of her simply because she discussed signs of growth and false advertising as her basis for a replacement. I quickly got the impression that your company will not issue a replacement on the basis of virility alone. If this is not the case, how then do you expect your customers to discuss concerns without mentioning their reasons for requesting a replacement. :rolleyes: Any reason given would surely be as a result of their cultivation efforts.

I know this member quite well and cannot believe for an instance your claim that this member inquired with you on any cultivation questions. That's all I wanted to say. Please forgive my intrusion in this thread. I simply cannot stand by when false information is being spread about a good member of this community.

Please continue.

pwned... and as for viability of syringes, that's a very good point wronguy. if cultivation can't be mention in viability, how would you know if it's viable or not? not everyone has a microscope strong enough for seeing spores and it'd almost not be worth it buying one just for a refund.
i've never bought off of spores101 before so i have nothing to say but i've noticed that more "noobs" than "veterans" like spores101.

Regardless of politeness or whatever, sounds like the situation's resolved. Wouldn't you say so Wronguy? The person broke the "rules" of ordering, which were agreed to before purchase. Then the person was issued a full refund, despite the fact that they violated Spores101's terms of service - which they had agreed to before the purchase.

Sounds pretty damn good to me.

You don't need to discuss cultivation to discuss virility. The spores are sold for "microscopy purposes only". If you don't have a good microscope, don't make claims of inviability. Use the scope, Luke! This was agreed to before the purchase was made.

I was quite happy to see a refund was issued, but I cannot condone the manner in which this member was treated. To be completed honest, I had no intentions on commenting in this thread until I saw the comments that this user asked cultivation questions. This is simply not true.

The user in question mentioned cultivation using the phrase "no growth." I think there is a distinction here that is not being addressed. I am fully aware of the situation that occurred and at no time was cultivation advice solicited. This is what is so upsetting. Why do people have to spin the truth to allow others to side with them? Had Spores 101/Shroomtalk stated "A customer mentioned growth on their email and we could not provide any support in this regard," or something to that affect, I wouldn't have bothered saying anything.

Refund= Great handling of the situation
Treatment= Poor understanding of the customer's intention, even poorer response by falsely representing what was discussed in open forum.

I honestly don't know what else to say about this. I have had problems with syringes in the past, got a fully colonized substrate, but the substrate would just not fruit. I sent the company an email stating these reasons and a replacement was immediately sent. There was no brush off or referral to their disclaimer, just an immediate response offering a refund and/or replacement. Did I mention cultivating? Sure I did, but they didn't treat me like I'm an idiot because of this.

Anyway, my two cents.

Knotty if we said it was shipped then I assure you it was shipped. Have you double checked your address to confirm its correct?

Did you pay for tracking on your shipment?

If your in the USA and your order does not arrive within 15 business days after shipping then there is most likely a problem, and it should be returned to our shipping office.

If you ordered overseas without tracking sometimes it can take a VERY long time to arrive... regular mail across continents is not a reliable way to have spores shipped.. its worth it to invest in the tracked and insured shipping.

Sucks that this is your first time ordering and you get a long delay Knotty, please PM me your order number and I will see if I can find out anything else for you.

Did you PM them, Knotty?  This type of communication is best first handled in private, and then if there is a lack of communication or an unsatisfactory response - that's when you should post a new thread on the Shroomery Sponsors Forum.

I never told you to wait another week either so I do not understand who said that.

What method did you use to contact us?

The emails ? contact@spores101.com or sales@spores101.com

or was it the contact form on the website?

Knotty I assure you we will get your order AND some compensation for any delay.

We made a mistake on Knotty's order so we refunded him 25%, added 2 syringes onto his order and upgraded his shipping to UPS ground with tracking today.

We correct our mistakes.

making a sig with a banner that bashes a friendly shroomery sponsor, someone who pays hundreds every month to keep themselves up and running(money which goes to keeping this place running!!!), is just the same as if every post you said "mushbox sucks!!!"



its rude, disrespectful, and SPAM!

if u have something to say, make a SINGLE thread about it in the sponsors forum like a respectful being. putting it in your sig is just plain fucked. i hope u learn some respect.

There is also the matter of some sort of copyright infringement I am sure as well. I would have to ask my lawyer but I am sure there is something not kosher about that. I don't really want to do that...I am hoping we can settle whatever the matter is without resorting to anymore childish behavior.

Hey, Spores101. You know that I love you guys as much as anyone. But the logo was obviously intended to be funny in a mean-spirited sort of way. That makes it a parody. Completely covered under the fair use provision of US copyright law. That's why they have all those teeshirt companies with misappropriated logos. I still think it's a lame banner, but your rights are not actually being violated now.

Not an official legal opinion, just my two cents.

I have to admit that I did laugh a little as the logo obviously had some time and effort put into it...but of course I don't want that floating around there.

I here ya BrandNoob....it's like a parody...there isn't a thing I can do about that.

Not really sure how mushbox came into this thread anyway.. I thought it was a post about Spores101.

Wonderland you have every right to complain if your order is late so you will get compensated if you give us a chance. Last thing we want is angry Shroomery customers.. so whatever it takes to impress you PM me and let me know!

We have had issues with our shopping cart software among other things, but all these issues are not the customers fault.. with increase business comes new problems to solve, and apparently the shopping cart software we are using is not able to cope with all the traffic, so we are upgrading.

ANY customer that is not 100% satisfied.. let me know privately first so we can have a chance to make it right!

The logo is funny, but I hope we can change your view of us into MUSHROX like others..

monstermitch rated WL420 as his "monsterbitch" meaning its probably his wife/lady. then he changed it once WL420's rating started getting more attention.

ive seen nothing but horrible negativity from monstermitch over spores_101 mishaps, and to see someone (who might be in relation to MM) put "mushsux" in every post they make really ticks me off too. not to point any fingers or anything, but its a weird coincidence.
not to take anything out directly on monstermitch though either, he is a great mycologist, helpgul in the grow forums, and a great soul, but vendor bashing is just WRONG!

you guys are here to spread WONDERFUL STERILE MICROSCOPY SPORES!!! which is a blessing.

ive seen nothing but good reviews from these vendors from people i know and trust here and even though im not a paying customer, spores_101 has been very generous, quick to reply, and full of positivity. not to mention their products are TOP QUALITY. even better than some of the vendors ive had the honor to pay my money to!!!

mushbox should not be dragged down either, they are always very generous and host equally as many contests and deals as any other spore company. not to mention ive heard good results with the sterility. so whats the problem :smirk:

I have yet to see either spores_101 or mushbox do anything worthy of being bashed like I have seen these two users do so, and i think above all spores_101 and mushbox deserve not only two thumbs up, but a fuckin toast :cheers: to how wonderful it is to have both of them sharing not "business" but something rare and special that not every person will be able to understand.

that being microscopy spores of course... and sterile ones at that.

if anyone else feels they need to give me bad ratings over this shit, please do so, they are just opinions, just like this post.

but mushbox and spores_101 deserve more than this!!!!!
wheres the love!!!!!!!

what is wrong with you people?

just drop all of the damn drama please.
leave me out of it.

I lost hundreds of dollars and also hundreds of dollars worth of
product. plus I've had to deal with immeasurable crap...
needless...

keep your drama to yourself.
keep your opinions on which you know nothing of to yourself.
or pm each other all day long, or whatever.

I've taken a sizable loss on account of this company.
I'm over it.
Do you understand that? Over it.
So leave my name out of your drama on the boards please.
all of you. Drop it. Or just leave me out of it.
Or better yet, if you have a problem with me, pm me about it.

Thanks for your consideration.

this is so typical of spores101. they will put a spin on anything. i once had a problem, that they wouldn't fix, so i just told them i would state the facts in the shroomery sponsored forum. well they threatened me, said they would turn the forum against me.

anyways lets let facts speak for themselves.

brand new presterilized jar, just removed from the packaging after it was sent to me from Innersight Trading L.L.C.

and i repeat it was brand new, just removed from packaging, not inoculated or anything:

looks very sterile :rolleyes: it's a bad pic but everything in that jar is fucking yellow.

honestly i don't know why anyone orders from this company. you find great reviews, because they give you freebies and ask you to make a post in the marketplace about how "good" their company is. freebies are nice, but not when its for the wrong reasons. it's all just marketing to them.

personally i'd go with ralphsters or any other vendor over spores101.

sorry to curse your name in public MM, I certainly did not mean that. I would definitely like to see some proof before I make any judge-ments on whatever it is you have to prove.

its just a little odd to me that your previous rating which you referred to her as your "monsterbitch", suddenly changed but was sweetly edited to stand out her wonderful420ness but disclude that she was your "monsterbitch"

I somehow figured a possibility that she might be your actual Bitch :grin:
though it was not an assumption.

plus it was quite recent that u posted something on these two, and got hushed quite quickly by the admins and yet...
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/userposts.php?number=155280&newer=&older=&forum=f18&limit=25&tosearch=main
I was only able to find that one complaint by you.

I do not know the whole story.

and yet I said
Quote:

not to point any fingers or anything



Quote:

who might be in relation to MM



Quote:

not to take anything out directly on monstermitch though either, he is a great mycologist, helpful in the grow forums, and a great soul




so whats your beef man? im just stating coincidence and opinion and not a clearly stated fact other than sterile spores from spores_101 and mushbox.

until theres any proof otherwise :cheers:

simple.

first off that person and I are of no relation.
I thought the word bitch was a bit harsh and not in relations
to my true opinion of her. a person I've never met by the way.
just someone I give cult. advice to all the time.
just someone like dozens of others here.

I'm sure my wife would take offense to your accusations.
And yes, the admins did delete that thread, but not because of me,
because of them. so you're backwards.

and yes I did lose hundreds of dollars and hundreds of dollars of
product directly because of that company, and no there is not a
thread about it. not yet anyway. I'm trying to be polite about it
and keep it where it belongs. in the past. in private. no need for people
like you who have nothing to do with the situation butting in and
making it your problem.

what other users do is their own issue and problem. not mine.
if somebody else has issues with this company, then so be it,
but they are their own issues, not mine. I've said what I need
to and I'm trying to move past this one large unfortunate event.
you trying to drag me into some other person's drama is simply
uncalled for. I don't need to be part of your silly game with logos
and whatever.

it's not correct etiquette for me to post pm conversations here in
open forum. and just because you want that information doesn't
mean you are privy to it. It's private. So no, you don't know the
details of my dealings with that company, for a reason. It's not
your business.

so continue your crusade for spores101 all you like.
continue your crusade against Wonderland420 all you like.
just leave me out of it please. stop trying to make up stories.
I certainly don't appreciate it. so drop it please.
god, I can't believe this just won't go away...

fuck etiquette.
and yeah why post everything u just told me in PM? :smirk:
not like u posted anything I said :snowman:

and I said I wasnt pointing fingers...

what more do u want? a lapdance? I dont know how to state coincidence any more carefully then that without having someone blowing up on me cause I dirtied his ego with my big fat fuckin shoes.

plus theres yet to be any proof, im just looking for some answers here so I can make smart-buyer decisions. what do you expect someone like me (a buyer) to do in this situation? bend over and take it like a monsterbitch from someone without any current proof?

like every other hardhead, ill believe it when I see it.
and my spores_101 spores were 100% what I ordered.
for now thats what I see, for its in my frickin microscope.

look buddy.

you dragged me into this thread.
making false accusations about me.
I don't owe you anything.
you questioned what my problem with them is.
it's not your business. deal with it. I don't have to prove
anything to you.

you can make your own decisions as a buyer.
first you say you're not a paying customer of theirs, but now
you say you have just what you ordered from them...

whatever.

you can order from whomever you want. I never said anything bad
about their spores, not once ever. nor do I bad-mouth their products.
We had a deal go bad and I lost a bunch of money. it had nothing
to do with their retail business or their relations with their customers.
it's strictly a private matter between a wholesaler (me) and a
retailer (them). hear that? private.

your problem with Wonderland420 has nothing to do with me.
understand?

you dragged me into this, not the other way around.
I owe you nothing. understand?
I won't post those pm's because the moderator staff says that's
not the proper etiquette here. so I listen to them. not you.
I don't care if you don't care. your opinion doesn't matter in this
particular situation between them and us.

I'm not saying not to buy from them. go ahead. buy from them.
I'm saying leave me out of your drama.
what don't you understand? it's not about ego... it's about me
having nothing to do with this logo silliness or this thread.
there's no need for you to be making accusations and creating
drama. You attack me, I defend myself. simple.
stop attacking and it'll all go away.

so buy whatever you want from them.
handle your problem with Wonderland420 in private.
calm down a bit.
and leave me out of your games please.

please and thank you.

Mitch - you keep saying you lost all this money and product but as far as I am aware and Mushbox will back this up...

You sent us a large shipment of bags to Canada.

Customs would not allow them through for whatever reason.

They were not sent back to you because you didn't put a return address on the box.

We ultimately payed you for the bags we didn't receive.

So, what in the world are you talking about?

wrong.
lies as usual.
nothing but lies from you.

you didn't pay a single cent.
the bags were confiscated and a return was denied.
return shipping was denied.
I have a nice letter from customs about it.
it has nothing to do with a return address.
the boxes had a return address on them of course.
all mail has to.
they were confiscated. understand?
you attempted to import illegal items into your country.
they were confiscated. no return, no refund.
simple as that.
you didn't pay a single penny.
in fact it took me weeks and weeks to get you to pay for
the bags that were delivered to the U.S.
I was told for weeks and weeks by Geoff that you guys wouldn't
even pay for the received American shipments.
that's why the whole deal went south. you blatantly ripped me off.
I have lots of correspondence to prove it. you just payed for the
bags you received months ago a couple of weeks ago.
I had to about pry the money for those bags out of your hands.

stop telling lies.
I certainly did lose hundreds of dollars.
I certainly did lose hundreds of dollars worth of product.
you certainly didn't pay a single cent towards it.
I have proof, lots of it.
so watch yourself.
