eBay and hosta
They only time I have left negative feedback on eBay was the time I bought
hosta from this one obnoxious person. The plants were rotting, didn't grow
and turnned out NOT be the variety they were supposed to be.
If you want to buy on eBay I can only suggest that you check out the
seller's feedback as he is continuing to receive negative feedback in the
midst of his 900+ feedbacks....
He is "advertising" Blue Angel as "rare"...not, I suspect, because he thinks
it is, but rather to attempt to jack up the price.
On another hand, for the Crowned Imperial he is selling, he makes a big
point that it ALIVE...as if otherwise (as I know he does) he would send dead
plants. And to top if off, his e-mail gets nasty and hostile.....a wonderful
guy, BUT as I said the only bad experience on eBay while buying a wide
variety of "stuff" not hosta.
