waitin' on my plant (no more!!!)

[brandonamito]

I placed my order back on the 12th.  Hopefully it will ship out Monday.  I could have sworn the day before I placed my order there was a buy one get one free sale too.  I was pretty bummed out when I saw it was gone.

I can't wait to get my plant  .  i think i'll grow this one normally, then try to make some cuttings for hydroponics.  see what kind of difference it makes.



Update: order received April 9th.

Oh yeah. So I wasn't just imagining that. I missed it as well.

Mine arrived and they are doing quite well in the humidity dome.

*Huge* difference .

Make sure you read my article on pinching and pruning... You'll want to pinch her heavily to get lots of cuttings for a hydro setup!

They were shipped on a Tuesday and arrived on that Friday. Maybe you will get it today? Are you sure he didn't hold them due to weather?

[brandonamito]

no one has contacted me about anything and i find that really annoying.  if that is the case, he should at least email me and let me know what's going on.

How did you pay?

[brandonamito]

How did you pay?

paypal.

Tuesday has gone by and no word from anyone yet.    From what I hear they only ship out on Mondays and Tuesdays, so that most likely means another week to wait.

Paypal really slows up the works! I placed an order for a plant around the same time as you and it took about a week for paypal to clear. I recieved an email last sat. that my order will be shipped this week. I am very excited to get this plant growing. check your spam and trash folders in your email account thats where my emails ended up!

paypal has been instant in my experience.  In fact, I got an automated confirmation of payment email from salviasource immediately, with the cultivation guide attached.  I'm probably a little frustrated because I bought a plant here after losing an ebay auction, but then right after I finished here, I got a message from the ebay seller saying he would ship a plant to me the next day for $20.     This coming after realizing I had missed the buy one get one free sale.     And now, two weeks of waiting.

Paypal must not like me! I've had my verified account for years and yet any time I use it it takes a week to make the payment! I got an email from paypal saying my payment has been initiated on the 14th. and another saying it was finally payed on the 19th.
Maybe it's the weather problem their having causing the delay. I was told mine would ship this week so I hope it actually does!
Good luck!(To all of us!)

Upgrade to a verified, premier, business account (should be free, but there's a bevy of steps to get there) and then payments, both in and out, AND deposits/withdrawals from a bank account will be free.

Then, remove your bank from paypal, and get a credit card with a TINY limit (around 500$) and link that, and only that to PP. Paypal can really screw sellers, and buyers, over at their discretion. I had roughly 3600$ worth of money in my account at one point, due to a single sale. I withdrew it all. The buyer refuted a 100$ charge (after I gave them the item). So, pay"asshole" debited 3600$ from my bank account, for 4 months, to do their investigation (over 100$ by the way) and eventually found me right, and told the buyer to screw off.

However, for 4 months, I had overdrawn 3000$ (I'm a college student, barely living by) and the bank couldn't do anything about it. Thank god they waived all the overdraft fees.

Just a warning, but YMMV.

I sent in my payment via certified letter to make sure it was delivered. It has been sitting at the Tuscon Az. post office since the 19th! A notice was left at his house on the 19th! This is no way to do business!

I sent him $40.00!

Now that's really strange.

This was ordered through this forum?

Hmm...

[csferraro]

Yes, I ordered it from the shop page. I tried calling his house and no one answered the phone so I left a message.
