There?s certainly plenty to be leery of regarding this seller:
No good history to go on. Only 3 feedback ratings and those were all from
her as a buyer
Snitches photos from other sites.
Sells seeds of very rare species (I?m assuming)
Based in Turkey (but says she gets the seeds from South America ? I suppose
that could happen)
Cheap postage (however most Anthurium seeds are pretty light and I can ship
a 1 oz envelope first class TO Turkey for $.90
However, unless someone knows more than I have been able to glean from the
threads of the past week, she has yet to be proven a total fraud. Yes, yes,
I know,
she snitched the photos, but that, in itself doesn?t mean the buyer won?t
get what she?s selling.
Not to worry, though, it won?t be long before those feedback results start
to come in, and we should know more, at least if she can deliver viable
seeds of something. Too bad it can take
quite some time before the identity of any seeds which sprout can be
confirmed.
And I sure wouldn?t pay what some of those are paying for A. superbum
without being pretty sure I?d be getting the right thing.
Stay tuned, this story ain?t over yet.
