I need some help people. I haven't ordered hydro stuff in a while and I needed to get some stuff and I found a new site http://www.horticulturesource.com which had great prices and looked pretty legit. So I sent off my Money Order and waited.. and waited.. finally contacted the guy that runs it and only after I contacted did my order ship.. the entire order was DROP SHIPPED from NGW directly to my delivery address (i.e. nothing was sent from Usisu / Hort Sorce).
Upon examining the delivery two items were missing.. about $50 worth.. and one item that was shipped was not what was advertised on the guys website. Of the two items that were missing, one of them (the only item in my order which was really exclusive to the cause) was some DR NODES.
I contacted him again and informed him that items were missing and all I wanted was for him to ship me the missing items.. he said quite directly that he knew and was sending a refund for the items. A few days later I get a nice hand written check to me directly by name from "HORTICULTURE SOURCE" and WTF am I supposed to do with it??? Deposit it in my bank account??
At BEST I got scammed.. I mean.. you send in a M.O. to get around the paper trail and I am sure the guy knows this and sends refund checks out that he knows will never get cashed. SCAM!! At worst.. its the cops and they are trying to bust me.
What would you do?? trash or cash the check? Does anyone else have good / bad experiences with horticulturesource.com?
