I know Doc can be gruff sometimes when people waste his time with bullshit. On the other hand, I know people who he has spent hours helping and I know their customer service is excellent if you have an actual problem. Your assertion that there "are a host of other problems regularly reported" is all in your head mate
its in noones head,hes a dick.....ya first post,,,blah blah,if you are in the retail business and making money off people you should take the time to answer questions

I have got feed back from some of his customers over almost two decades ,who are people i know online and in real life

he has answered SO many questions for so many people..even their dumb newbie questions..we were all newbies once

if he hung up on someone it was from abuse...he cares about his customers i guarantee

..he treats his customers very well..
 
Like you said it's his business, so it's up to him to decide what his job is. If he decides his job does not include talking to customers then it's not his job.
He hung up on my brother for asking about Thc Percentages, I'll NEVER buy his beans just because he's that much of a prick, not to mention there's about 15 other reputable breeders that seeds could be sourced from & I breed weed myself so I don't need Anybody's Fucking Seeds
 
Damn his prices are crazy, he should be going above and beyond for customers at that price.
When me & my Partners Launch our Seedbank This Year well be giving freebz with every order & 10% off for U.S. based Customers & granting an additional 5% to people who submit orders from a Recreationally legal state or district, well be Reversing A Couple of Local Favorites from out here in Maine called Jerry Berry & M.O.B. & offering feminized & regular seeds at reasonable Prices & were even doing a Project a Fellow Breeder Suggested we do , AlienDawg x NYC Sour Diesel so we're gonna perfect & Stabilize that Lovely Lady

He's Definitely a Douche, if Someone on RIU wants some of my Beans & they don't seem like a Cop or a Complete Douche I have no problem Packaging some beans & sending them for free if I think they deserve free gear, I get a great deal on LEDs & the people I get them from have gotten seeds from me. The Point is if Your a Douche you won't get very far with people but if Your Respectful & Informative then I imagine you'll be highly Successful
I think Doc has been doing pretty well for about 20 years so I guess he must not be that much of a douche...according to your reasoning.
And, please explain how calling a competitor a "douche" is being respectful and informative. It doesn't look like your getting the company off to a good start...according to your own words.

I see a lot of new breeders calling out the established breeders....is that the way to get noticed these days?

No but when you hang up on somebody that could potentially buy up to thousands of dollars in seeds & they act like a Complete Prick it tends to Lose you a lot of business, Now I do know he has great gear but he's definitely not very adamant about customer service, if Someone had questions about any of our strains we wouldn't mistreat them . . & I could Care less about Greenthumb myself as I'm a Fan of TGA & Reserva Privada so as far as stating my opinion on him to get noticed please believe I don't need to do that because when we Launch I'll already have some of our gear Being Grown by Growers on RIU before we even start taking orders so the Beans will Speak for Themselves, Especially The M.O.B. & Alien Querkle & when we drop the OMFG strain This Fall I'm Sure People will love it. .... But I can tell your a fan of Greenthumb & don't get me wrong I Love his bubba OG and his Sour Diesel, my brother was Actually gonna order some of his Sour to breed with our AlienDawg x NYC Sour Diesel but he had to be rude when asked about Thc Content on a Particular Strain

I'm glad you plan to handle customer service in that way. Greenthumb has been doing just that for 20 years and Im willing to bet when your company has been around for that long you will have hung up on many a customer. GT has the reputation as being one of the only breeders that you are able to talk to and ask questions over the phone. I'm sure he has pissed people off and I'm sure some of those are his fault. But, if you've been in any business you have to know that customers can be complete a-holes themselves and can be dishonest as well. Just wait until you hear the shit people make up when they call your company to complain. I have nothing against you and would love to hear back from you once the company is established so you can tell me about the calls you receive. Like i said , i bet you will have a new respect for breeders who deal with the public.

There is room enough for the new and old seed companies that they really don't need to cut each others throats.
 
i can see how people would stick up for the guy cause he gives free seeds.....
Well be giving out Freebz too with Every Order, Look up the Strain M.O.B. on here, there's a lot of Controversy on its origins but it was bred Right here in Central Maine & we Plan on Reversing it Although Nobody's ever Successfully reversed it Cause it don't throw pollen it just shoots blanks when the Nuts Appear, I got something for that Ass though

the key to any successful business is quality customer service,good business men understand that
