Man, I don’t think I can follow this thread any further. Too much drama.

I feel like all this agro towards Gu is a bit much. Whenever you buy seeds you still just don’t know.

With that being said, this extreme hatred towards somebody at a business point is insane.

You bought something from someone you didn’t really know (except for a few).

I have a close friend who grows in a med and rec state and he agreed that some strains are more finicky than others. Did this dude deny Gu? No.

For those of you super angry, I’m going to ask for you to not be involved. This thread should go back to Gu. You bought S1’s and shit didn’t work. Surprise, surprise. Less hate and more understanding is a better way to address it.

Go with his Wild West Series. Don’t jump on the train of what’s trending. If I were to do that, I might get shit every time. Some folks act like this their first grow, if it didn’t work put great then there is a shit storm towards person.

If you backed Gu and were upset by results that came from a different idea, I understand. But if you bought Gu’s stuff and it worked well but “his” newer stuff didn’t, he is probably trying to expand and incorporate other folks and/or businesses with himself. Since it has been openly discussed about where he got some (hopefully not all) S1s that he was carrying that we can all buck up, accept the lose and get on with ourselves.

As a grower and not as much I would like, I hope everyone yields well and has good day in life.

This is definitely unfortunate and a bummer. It definitely does not appear good when this is going on, yet the website is always being updated with new sale prices still each day. Come on guys, disable the credit card system at least....Stop the bleeding You're making it worse on yourselves.

Y’all are bad at critical thinking, like really really bad. Just sayin’, I have seen a mob of kangaroos jump to fewer conclusions.

Payofix seems shady, though. Anyone who used a card should contact their bank. You don’t have to cancel the card, necessarily, just block international transactions, if they aren’t already, and keep an eye on your account. Canceling cards sucks...

Assuming there is some vast conspiracy to sell shitty seeds and steal credit cards is silly. It is a shitstorm, sure, but it’s a shitstorm no one understands fully yet.

I think that’s pretty good advice to @greenpointseeds but there may be factors we don’t know about preventing it from happening right away. Ads and sale prices might be scheduled, too, changes don’t necessarily mean manual intervention.

Unfortunately lost a Pig Whistle when I went out for 3-4 days before realizing I had forgot to water my plants before I left, which hadn't been watered for like a week. Miraculously the rest survived and have finally started growing again. The Pig Whistles have a real nice peppery spice scent on the stem rub and 2 of the Chinooks have a crazy strong straight orange citrus smell while the third doesn't really smell and is just being kind of slow so it's the only one left untopped

Also have 4 Apollo 11 x Purple Badlands seedlings going which should be pretty mad

what a complete pile of shit. telling others who got burned, some for $1000+ to 'not be involved'. are you kidding me?

there is a distinct difference between an honest mistake where a person or two get the wrong seeds or something. it is something else completely to put your name on something that it turns out you clearly knew nothing about, and then sell them off to your customers. this is extremely shady business. now, i don't believe Gu~ did this knowingly, but nonetheless it was done. this is a very big deal, and people have EVERY right to be angry.

this isn't a lottery where i am gambling for something. i paid a set amount of money for a specific product and then absolutely did not get that product. if you're the type to get burned and then 'accept the loss and get on with yourself' then you're an idiot, and i don't plan to also be an idiot.

And, in your op, you further explain how transactions are supposed to occur using the vendor API. Thank you for that description.

Now to the point. Several individuals in this thread tell you (you meaning GPS) that there is a problem with credit card fraud and you tell us that you can't answer any questions at this point. But, you go on to tell us that you had your card stolen through an Amazon transaction. Oh, also you don't use credit cards for on-line purchases. Thank you. Got it. No deflection or obfuscation there at all. Perhaps this could be a pop-up notice on the GPS website?

GPS must have been aware that this is an issue before now and the response both here and via email to date has not been satisfying. I am starting sense that, as a business, you folk feel that you are not responsible for the conduct of your vendors and, as such, you can simply divert blame to them and it'll all go away. Business is good. Business as usual. I sincerely hope that is not the case. Truly.

If GPS is aware that this is occurring, this is a problem for GPS. Worse, if it’s on-going and happening to more than one individual, then it’s a matter of refusing to protect your customers from potential fraud. The implications of which are not good from a variety viewpoints including customer confidence.

This kind of thing does not just affect the individual purchase. This has the potential to affect a customer's financial situation in a significant and detrimental manner. I would think those implications are clear.

Please consider putting a pause on your CC processing until this problem is understood, look inward, and then decide if it's worth the risk of leaking your customer's PII with the use of your current CC transaction mechanism/vendor.

Whatever you do, don’t mention that GU will try and fix any of this, because if you even seem like you are defending him, or at the very least are showing some sort of compassion, critical thinking or patience, the 3 or 4 person mob will try and make you cower down and shut you up.
Most of them have and always will be staunch opponents of GU....and then there are the bandwagon hang-arounds....

i.e. Outlaw goof....this dude is so damn on and off again.....depending on how a page or two is trending at that time. Talk about swinging.....good grief. What a joke. It’s almost embarrassing to read at times.

i have already said i know he will make things right. i am sure i will get my nuggets back.

my issue was with someone telling others who got burned to not be involved if they're gonna be angry and trying to make it sound as though the complaints are unjustified. and also acting as if this is just how buying seeds goes. that is complete garbage.
