I have thought of buying from him. I live about an hour from him. I do know of ppl from another forum that buy from him all the time. He even does meet and greet in our area.

Read all of this thread and in my area there are many locals to buy from so I am gonna stay away from Fragitsnot!

I'm sure if you could go and pick up your frags in person they would be fine......but believe me....from someone who has had the pleasure of dealing with Burk threw shipping, I would strongly urge you to go a different route.

Just wanted to give you guys an update. We recieved our second package today - much better than the first. All colorful and healthy frags in great shape and with awesome colors. And just what we ordered this time! He even replaced the DOA's and erroneous substitutes from the first batch. So everyhting worked out well. Despite the fact that we probably should have received everything we ordered in the first box, we are generally happy (and feel really lucky!)

Well at least Burk seemed to pull his head out of his a$$ and made things right for your order and it didn't take months for him to do so. When do we get to see some pics of what you received?
