One way to prevent others from having the same experience would be to let us
know who "ripped you off". If there is any question of honest error, it may
be an honorable courtesy to avoid naming names, but this sounds pretty bad.
Of course, 200 iris for $300 sounds suspiciously cheap. Surely this could
not have been newer varieties. About the only way I would expect to get
decent iris that cheap would be from someone like the Suttons, from the
"sunset collection" of older varieties, and that would be taking into
consideration the usual generous "extras". Sorry about your experience.
