Re: sunfarm
OH... *that* Sunfarm....
Did not make the connection. Thought it was Sunshine Farms for Barry
Glick.
I have ordered from his perhaps 3 times. Yes, he is a salesperson and I
have taken plants not originally on my list. Mostly I write and ask if he
has something available after a look on his web site. He can answer yes or
not....
No way I would go through all that to get an order. You are far more
patient than I ... or wanted a plant you could not find elsewhere, or as
cheap....
With me it is do you have it, how much is it and what size now, when can
you ship? Period.

I figured Gene would have heard of him and I know Chris had thought of
purchasing plants from him but hadn't gotten around to it. It took me a
few years to get him to sell to me and then it all fell apart.
Barry Glick runs Sunfarm. His plant list on the internet is impressive,
but it is just a facade. He doesn't have those plants. Then he makes a
big to-do about whether he'll allow you to buy from him. After you jump
through ridiculous hoops, you have to take 100 plants without knowing what
you're getting. So he sends mostly odds and ends you don't want, still
leading you to believe that someday he'll let you order the good stuff.
When he finally says yes, you write the order, THEN he tells you, he
doesn't have those plants. NOW he sends you a list of what he does have,
only the real list is actually in Barry's head (his words) and that
doesn't match up to what he really has. But you write a revised order
selected from his new list and send it months ahead to secure your
plants.
Hmmmm.....haven't received a confirmation...email Barry. He knows he has
your order somewhere, but he's working 90 hour weeks and can't find
anything on his desk, and blah blah blah. E-send a copy of order. He
doesn't have 1/2 the items and 1/2 of the other 1/2 is twice the $ he
quoted before. He talks fast, very fast, trying to get you to take this
and that that he's overstocked with, items you don't want. And, of
course, it's too late for him to ship when you need them anyway.
What a nightmare. Cancelled the order.

Chris, you are so lucky you didn't order from Sunfarm. Gene, did you
ever order from him?
