E bay is great for some things..but plants..what a disaster..most of those people have no idea what they have..they just put "RARE" on it and people buy em.Always figure if yu buy plants on Ebay...label em as unknown till you are sure.Amazing how many RARE new brugs are on E Bay. LOL

JT,
I buy and sell on ebay all the time. Unfortunately, plants are occasionally mislabeled. As a seller of everything from antiques to plants on eBay, might I suggest you contact the seller and explain what happened? 99.99% of the time they will correct the problem. I recently had a customer contact me, after purchasing about 10 varieties of brugs, and indicated that one was mislabeled. I immediately sent him the correct plant and he got to keep the mislabeled one. Most sellers I have dealt with do the same.
I checked your seller Mitsukiwi, who out of a 1831 feed back only has 2 negative comments. (For those who don't know eBay, a feed back of 1831 is very high and you will always find a few people who no matter what you do will never be satisfied.) ---IMHO give it a shot and email the seller. All they can do is say no and you are out nothing.

Barbara,I have tried contacting the seller.No answer as yet.As for feedback,she got a positive from me as she shipped quickly and the plant looked fine.You can't go back and give negative feedback 9 months later.
Kyle,I'm just letting off steam.My purchases on Ebay have been very satisfactory for the most part.For some of us it's the only way to get some of the rarer ones.As Barbara says most sellers strive to give satisfaction and of all the plants I have purchased all but this one have been as promised.I still hope to resolve this one and come up with the real GM.
