Vendor Ghosted Me
    #28625560 - 01/18/24 06:35 AM (9 days, 20 hours ago)



I won't name the vendor unless I am asked.

I had a good run all the way up to 'break and shake'. However in my case it was more 'massage and kneed'. The grain was millet. I stood the bag up to ensure no grain was on the filter and when I lifted it off the surface, colonized millet began to drop from a hole on the bag. The hole is located on the side of the bag on the lower 20% section at the far inside point where the crevice exists that is on both sides. I immediately cleaned the area and taped it to the best of my ability. Can't be a mouse because it was inside an enclosed container. That has been considered.

I contacted the vendor through fb MSGR and they responded 12 hours later. However when I gave them my order number they ghosted me. I've attempted email as well. Nothing.

Should I just chalk this up as a loss? Am I at fault? I know for a fact that I had inspected the bag when it was received and it had no holes at all. The loose millet would have poured out like water. Now, with the vendor ghosting me I'm stuck wondering what the next step is. Difficult to wash away three weeks of work due to a hole. However now I sit and wait, either for contamination or a swift recolonize to get it out of the defective bag.

Any suggestions on what to do about the vendor?

I wouldn’t have very high hopes for that bag. But you may as well keep it around for a little while. You bought a bag of millet from a vendor. I’d recommend not doing that again really at all and learn to make your own 👍

:whathesaid:

For the price of that bag, you probably could've bought a 25# bag of millet and a monotub. Read the FAQ at the top and start for real.

In the weeks since I began this, ive also realized this. However without a PC, I will have to use my oven. Despite their support, it's difficult to get around my better half in that part of the residence.

Any tips on the vendor? Should I just write them off?

If they’re not returning your correspondence then yeah what else are you supposed to do?

Vendor might be snowed in without power or internet. Maybe….

A lot to quote there, but if they aren't responding, don't use that vendor again. The only thing I can think is did you happen mention anything about "magic type"? If that is the case I could see getting ghosted, they have to protect themselves. If you did not mention "magic" or any synonyms, I have to guess it wasn't a trusted vendor? Be wary of where you order supplies because a lot of stuff online goes to 3rd parties and it gets resold in bulk thru eBay, Amazon, and the sorts, leaving the consumer with trash. I special order my rye bags from the vendor I use, because they're 5 pounders. I cannot praise them enough, they respond within 24 hours unless the weekend. Heck they give you a automated response immediately after sending email stating someone will get back to you within 24 hours excluding weekends. Uh... ironically just last week they replaced a bag for me, zero question, zero charge. Those bags are mass produced by the 1000s and any type of error can happen during the production process, poor seal at seams, rips, fresh air exchange or rubber ports with imperfections. If I were you and trying to salvage, consider removing the paper tape and resealing with clear packing tape with clean hands. Much stronger and makes a better seal. At this point I wouldn't worry with tape adhesive contacting colonized grain. Just because you have a rip it doesn't mean your done especially if you already had a majority mass of clean mycelium. Do you see any signs of bacteria?
