Re: How bad did mango seller screw me?
I guess I'm not picky enough about varieties because I just buy locally--sometimes the little yellow/gold ones are available but generally just standard ones like Kents, etc. So unless this farmer was offering the moon, generic mangoes are 4/$1 at Food City in Mesa this week. There is a limit of 8 which means you have to go more than once, take a friend with you or hit up another store or 2 to get 15 lbs very cheap. Want something more exotic? You have some Asian markets in your area that might have the more unusual mangoes and other fruit if that's what you desire.
Other than seeds and plants, I order hardly anything that must be shipped unless absolutely necessary. I want to hold, smell and inspect so I know it's what I want before opening my wallet which is why I purchase locally and always did even when living in NC, MD, OH, etc.
