Yup. I decided to do it again. I ordered more plants from that ya-hoo on Ebay that has the plants. I figured if he can mess up a $58 order so royally, he can get another stab at me with a $15 order. Just had to give this guy one more chance. I will over-look something once but not twice so we'll see.

I will not plant the 29 gallon now since I have the Silver Dollars in there for now but have decided to mess around with the 20 gallon instead. The plants I had stored outside in water got too cold and are very sick looking.

He lists Priority Mail as 4.95 but when I tried to order this way, the price was 24.95. hummmmm I ordered only pearl grass and acorus varigatus. Not about to put a fortune into a 20 gallon tank.

Anyone want to take any bets here? LOL

Sign up for plantedtank.net and browse their swap and shop section. Cheaper prices and much larger quantities usually. I've given up on any other source of plants, lol

reminds me of an old saying (not saying that you are one) "an idiot and his money are soon parted"

This idiot parted with her money some time ago. I think about the time I started with the MTS thing. LOL

If he messes up your order again, you can hit him with a wooden spoon.

Well...what's money for if not for spending?

...speaking of which...got my pet supplies ($35)...and am going back with my American Bulldog tomorrow...I don't have the inclination to wrestle her in the tub for a bath and she really needs one...

...and it hasn't been quite warm enough outside to scrub her up on the patio...

...while I have her at the pet store...I can see if I can fit her for a new leather collar and a prong collar...

Next paycheck I'll take the Retriever in for his bath and have a bit of trimming done!

lol, im sinking more money today too, more cichlids.

If he blows this order, mail him the wooden spoon, and have chrona put a little electrical system in it that gives him a auto-spank

...I don't like them...ain't goin' back there...

Spent another $55 today...my dog had the spa treatment...she's so clean!!! Yes!

And I bought her a pinch collar...hopefully that will reduce the pulling on lead and remind her to 'watch me'...

...and I bought two veggie clips for my tanks! How exciting is that????

They chage 6 dollors for a veggy clip here. so i bought a suction cup bag of 12 for a dollar and a bag of ten plastic clips for 2 dollars, and i made my own. Never use them though, as i done feed shamuse seaweed or the like.

I read his feedback and he's had tons of happy buyers. People keep writing "FAST SHIPPER". Huh? First time it was 2 weeks for me. I don't care about the time frame as long as I get some decent plants.
