Re: Agri-starts..
 

Good post 1aday, thanks!!! I couldn't have said it that good.
Kylie, I didn't email you - I PM'd you. It was Wed. 4-22 at 11:23 am. Later, at 12:57pm, I posted the one where I was angry (page 16).
Isn't it funny that later that night He shipped 18 boxes out???? I don't really know Richard so didn't know if he was trustworthy...some here said yes.
If anyone is curious as to what I wrote in that pm to Kylie, I will gladly paste it here so you can judge if I'm a B**ch.
I feel it's OK to do since I wrote it.
Yes, Kylie did kindly offer to send me plants (back when he was kind) but I was thinking of 100's of other plants & at least 20 ppl who ordered them. I didn't want any plants from Kylie, just ones I ordered, & for Richard to send all the others out.
...4-22 11:23am
..."In Reply to your Post Re: Agri-starts..:
Hi Kylie, did you say you got email from Richard?
I hear he was on the forum Sunday night but didn't post. I'm sorry, but I think he's being very rude. Now that we all know he's just fine he shoulda posted something instead of keeping us hanging. Those plants need to be potted up! I also heard that some plants he shipped were smashed because he didn't pack them good. I also think he bit off more than he can chew & is realizing this.
I have empathy & sympathy for ppl - I'[m not a hard ass but this is rediculous to let all these ppl down.
(sentence deleted for someones privacy)
I will be angry if I don't get those plants soon - and I only have 6!!"

This was all pretty much what I already said - not any worse, but Kylie's making me out to be a animal.
To be honest, 2 plants (all EE's) were broken but I didn't want to say this before. They won't make it -BUT IT'S OK

Right On Taylor!!!

Re: Agri-starts..
 

I'm really tired of this thread!!! I had one of the largest orders in the group about $100 total ( I believe it was the 4th largest) and I wasn't a bit concerned. If I felt that there was a problems that was getting out of control I know how to speak up!! I think if you go through this thread you will find many people who were rude, and said hurtful things. I'm personally ashamed of how some acted, and have kept quite because I don't want to get too involved in others affairs. As for myself I believe Richard did a good job. I would have never attempted what he took on, in this format. Maybe Richard should have communicated more as we got closer to the 4/6/09 ship date. We don't know what Richards life is like outside of this group, he may have responsibilities that kept him distracted and then overwhelmed, I have been there myself. Maybe that's not the case at all, but if you haven't walked in his shoes then maybe you should not be so quick to stir up a firestorm that can quickly consume a lot of the members of this group. Richard if you ever read this post I want you to know my order was just fine and I appreciate you. Thank you for a job well done.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

I agree 100%. Also, I think maybe this thread should be locked and forgotten. It's just ugly

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Before this thread is closed if it is going to be, Richard just emailed me and said:

"IF you received damaged plants that do not survive, or if plants were
missing or just the wrong plants were in your order, please contact Richard
at orders@PlantsThatProduce.com. Thanks!"

Re: Agri-starts..
 

I too got a nice email from Richard saying that he will take care of any plants that don't survive. There is one for sure a goner but it's OK cuz I ordered 2 of that one. Not worth shipping one plant...I don't care about one plant. 2nd injured one may make it (?)
I told him my (and 1aday's) mail ppl must shake the boxes to guess what's inside them!!! LOL

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Bummer missed this order
But I'm probably better off to start with a few plants

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Has anybody received their Raja Puri yet?

I received an e-mail from Richard which was sent as a group broadcast. I can't find the e-mail right now but I thought they were going to be shipped last week. I want to make sure they don't arrive when I'm gone. I've tried to e-mail Richard several times but he seems to be blocking e-mails from me. All of my e-mails come forwarded back to me with a blank reply.

Thanks,

Harvey

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Harvey,
I don't think that Richard could possibly have sent any Rajapuris last week because Agristarts won't have them available until mid-June.

Just my speculation.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

I finally found Richard's e-mail which was sent on 5/8. He indicated he had just received word from AgriStarts that the Raja Puri would be sent in about 10 days (from that date) and that he'd get them around 5/20 and that they would be sent out to us in about a week from then.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Richard just sent the following e-mail (apparently to everyone on the order list)
:

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Sounds like Richard is using you for his personal messenger (?)
Of my 6 plant order, only 1 survived the poor packing sorry to say. $22.00 is a little much for a 2 inch EE.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

i got a whole tray of rajas a month ago from agristarts only have 2 left now but i didnt get them from richard what i want to know is how hes getting these 1000 fingers from them

Re: Agri-starts..
 

They may have had a few 'lying around'.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

Patty, sorry to hear so many of yours died. My second order was packed better than I first, following some of my suggestions made after the first. Most of the damaged ones I received recovered, though and Richard had issued a refund even though I told him I didn't want one. Richard had said it was covered by insurance and I never got an explanation of exactly what kind of insurance he was talking about.

The 1,000 Fingers will probably remain a mystery just like some other things.

Re: Agri-starts..
 

must be cause i have been on there waiting list for over a year on them and praying hands
