linuxman Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I saw it as well and got no sensible result when googling the name. Thought it must be a con, but this guy's done a lot of trading and has good feedback. Glad to see no one's bidding on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Green Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thought it must be a con, but this guy's done a lot of trading and has good feedback. Glad to see no one's bidding on it. He has - some how. Have you seen his 'terms and conditions' - leave him negative or neutral feedback and he'll take you to court The pic of the guy by the car is probably him I decided a while ago from all that crap, that he wasn't someone I wanted to trade with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuberousdrosera Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 His listings make me cringe so full of crap and on his dionaea sales he sends a 24 page 'how to care for' I sure he was a car sales man in another life :0) I emailed him and suggested that the wider community had never heard of this variety 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ada Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I,ve just read the terms and conditions that Phil Highlighted, no wonder he has good feedback. Good job i saw this pile of crap he was trying to sell,he won't be ripping anyone one off with plants for a while. ada 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuxman Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I emailed him and suggested that the wider community had never heard of this variety I asked him a question as well and he replied that the name was what was on the label when he got it. He says he'll grow it on this year and see what he's got. If he's had it a few years (as he says) how come he doesn't know what it looks like? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike King Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Is there a case for trying to sell something which is definitely not a cultivar in the trade descriptions act? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
