we do I proof that his now N later is fake, a buyer call him out and pink just ignore him. What’s the chance that was the only one that is fake? I’m willing to bet we are going to see more people calling him out soon.

Hey man, I'm sorry you lost $$$ on this deal.

Also sorry you got heckled a little by some of the members here, it's kind of par for the course sadly.

Maybe spamming messages here isn't the way to go, there's a lot of people that either want to OR have ordered from them and had a perfectly fine experience. Sometimes people get left holding the bag--this isn't a Ma n Pa shop after all. It walks a fine line of criminality and there's always some risk.

The best thing to do would be to leave them negative feedback at Strainly and explain the situation. It sounds like a lot went wrong in regards to the shipping, clone health, and the instructions that were included. Any one of those is understandable to me, but all together, I wouldn't be happy either.

In the future, I'd recommend making smaller orders to see how well a vendor's shipping performs en route to your location. Perhaps next time try ordering from someone who will resend or sends unrooted cuttings which can have a better chance at survival and are often cheaper. You can even try contacting some members from your area who have ordered and see if they want to trade. Be a little proactive and you might be able to absorb the loss to some degree.

And yeah, I did get sent a mislabel. It's not Now n Later, but I think it's a trop cookies cross. I'll have dry shots soon and maybe the community can help me identify wtf it actually is, lol. Sure, it sucks, but if they aren't going to respond there's not a whole lot more than I can do.

Flowering out some cuts I've gotten off strainly over the past year or so.

Gg4 from heisenbeans... I know he's a bit of a cunt lol but I knew he had real gg and I really wanted it.

They're all on the same feed so some are a little over/underfeed but overall everything is chugging along nicely. I'd say right now I'm liking the gg4 and ice cream cake the most. Trop cookies is a little finicky and the wedding cake looks a little slow in flower development.

if he just send by the gxg maybe It would have arrived a few extra day early, the clone would be in a way better situation but this just $$$, i would have been piss after spending 2 months growing them out and find out that they were all fake. One thing i don’t like from this experience is pink was acting so nice and shit, answering all my questions with supper fast response, I thought he was a very cool dude, But it all change after He take the money, this is what I don’t like. Zoom thx for the advice.

Maybe i should of handle this situation a little better, But what did I do to people here working the ground? All I did was warn people not to get scam by pink even tho people do receive clone from him, but is a hit or miss, if you have any problems on what he Send out, he will ghost on you and you are not going to get your money back. Coolcow you seem to defending pink here on this forum every chance you get.

And your point is? I got good clones and service, my motorbreath was doa and he not only made it right, he made it really right. If he didn’t earn my good words what did he do?
Seems like you’re about to accuse me of being pink box like that other guy that only joined the forums, like you, to put a blast up. From where I stand you are the insurgent, I havebeen hanging around here for about a decade. If I wanted to do sales it would be to my advantage to use my reputation, just saying. I’m just a happy customer.
My take away is if you live in Canada, might not be a good idea to order from pink box!

The risks we take to get the cuts/meds we want...

I will say I had 2 clones from PB not make it. One flat out wilted and died, the other‘s apical rotted away...

Yeah it’s a bummer some didn’t make it, but the ones that did will EASILY save me $$$ down the road...I’ll still come out ahead.

The only thing that’d stop me from ordering in the future would be if these flowered out to boof.

This last part hit the nail on the head. Don't go online complaining about how it works when someone is NICE enough to mail you cuts from another country. There aren't alot that do it because its Hella risky. Customs is a huge problem and sender has to be creative to not get caught.
This isn't ordering from Amazon or a legit seedbank. IMO if you lost out, Thems The breaks and you shut up and take it. Don't go online badmouthing sellers who are risking a lot to take a chance.

Its like you ordered 3 or 4 bad packs or 1 seed junky pack and didn't find a keeper. Your out your money and nothing you can do, its the risk we take when we grow. So buying clones internationally isn't something any of you should be so open to exposing their game and bad mouthing cuz it didn't work out.
But JM2C.

So are you saying if he is sending to Canada then is ok to send me clones that’s not even rooted, takes my gxg shipping cost and sent with less expensive one? Ignore me when i ask why, If he send the clones all properly rooted than I don’t mind if they show Up delay or dead I’ll just take the lose. It don’t matter where he sends to when he is getting $$$ for them.

Business is business rather it be online, storefront, or the streets. Integrity goes a long way in this community. Just because he's in another country doesnt mean he should get a shitty product. I appreciate him giving a heads up to the community. I turned a friend of mine on to PB due to all the positive reviews on strainly. The clones were wilted and barely had any roots on the others. Took him 2 weeks to send it. He sent freebies, but the ones he asked for looked like shit. Not saying PB is a scammer or anything, but he might be overwhelmed or something you know..

Integrity is so hard to come by these days, I blame this on COVID, marking the economy tank, people are losing money People with less integrity are supper hungry for money. Dam COVID.

You can ask sure. To take it online like a crybaby and repeatedly say the same stuff is what is lame. I saw roots on what you posted so to say they were unrooted is BS.

If that’s what you Call rooted and you are all fine with that, than you must be pinkbox himself for one of his friends, no legit seller with integrity In this right mind would do what he did and send out shit like that, I’m just telling people here what he did, and I have people saying I’m badmouthing him, i know Pink has few accounts here who do advertising for him, so I should just shout up now and stop ruining this game.
