Chris, you really need step back and relax.

You've posted this in the main banana forum, not in your own personal classified ad. This is the same forum where people give away plants to other forum members, offer free advice, etc. Also, being in business, you should be prepared to have people question your pricing. That is something that comes with the business. The problem isn't that Agri-Starts published their prices but that people don't consider the order size required, costs of growing to a larger plant, and need to cover one's overhead in a business. Along with that, people aren't accustomed to seeing someone advertise something for a profit in the main banana forum.

I asked before but don't see that you've addressed this: where is it that you see that Agri-Starts requires a customer to apply for a taxpayer I.D.? When I discussed an order with them before this was never brought up. My farm sales are reported under my social security number (which is my taxpayer I.D.) even though I have a reseller's permit, Employer Identification Number, etc. You also once stated that a customer needed to be incorporated. That's just not right.

Sure you're entitled to a profit. But when you post on this forum other members are also entitled to ask questions without getting replies with profanity.

Good luck,

Harvey
