I ordered a couple of plants from them over a month ago and keep getting the same message, my order will ship in 1-2 weeks. I sent them an email asking for an update and still have not received a response.

If I don't get a response in the next day I am going to dispute the charges.

This is my experience from last year (2012):

I too got suckered by Oasis Tropical when I ordered 5 california golds in January of this year. I got the same notification about delaying shipment due to poor weather and when I phoned I got the same recorded message about "working on the sprinklers". When all was said and done it took until June for me to get Mastercard to reverse the charges (it was too far after the fact for eBay to honor their "buyer protection" guarantee.) Luckily I was able to provide Mastercard with copies of the emails promising shipment as well as emails and phone messages that I had left - with no response from "Dr. Mike" - asking them to either ship the items or refund the purchase price.
I also noticed that by June they had disappeared from the eBay without a trace. And even though you could still find them on-line, I never got any type of response when I requested an explaination regarding my January order. But I see now - 3 months later - that they are back on-line with a spiffy new webpage.
I personally would not trust them.


During my battle to get my money back there were dozens and dozens of angry reviews that could be found online about not people not receiving product they had paid for. Unfortunately by the time I got my money back it was too late for me to post my comments as they were now gone. But I can tell you that most of the reviews you will find on Oasis's website are the same ones that I saw prior to my experience with them and prior to January 2012. I have also heard of others who did get product but it turned out to be not what they ordered.

I say again, DO NOT TRUST THEM!
