Potpimp and Nirvana

i ordered beans for the first time ever and was sceptic but i did i went with nirvana got theyre wr / super skunk and swiss cheese and also got a free pack of mystery seeds although the super s seeds look the nicest and most viable the white rhino has a few bum looking seeds and the swiss cheese dont look like nice seeds at all the free mystery pack seems to have small seeds but are dark.
i placed my order last saturday and got them today very fast shipping if u ask me plus i got a free wallett lol.
as for the liability of the beans i cant comment on yet but if the white rhino turns out to be anything like the wr my buddy grew years back im in for a treat there
and if the super skunk is supposed to be better than skunk#1 i cant wait for that its been a long time since theres been strains around here like this lol cant wait to germ and start growing them peace and good luck to all and happy tokings

So if & when your beans arrive are you going to post that you got them? Or are you just going to complain about how long it took to get them? And since OGrascal stepped in on your half a few things have changed at potpimp. More staff has been added to try and make sure things like this don't happen again. And I doubt this will make you feel any better but ripz did guarantee OGrascal that your shipment will arrive. We will see.

I stated on one of my posts that was deleted that if my order showed up I'd be the first person to acknowledge it. But as I said, that post was removed, along with the rest of my posts on the complaint thread. Honestly, I don't even want these seeds anymore, just my money back. I stated this to ripz in a PM. Ripz barely received VERY few packs of Raskal seeds, and they sold out IMMEDIATELY! My order should have been the first received since I prepaid for them prior to them even landing at PP, but as the rest of my posts show, that certainly wasn't the case. Since only 10 packs of KKSC x White were given to RIpz, and most likely a similar number of Firebubbas, how is he going to pull these beans out of thin air months later to send to me? I don't know what's being said at PP about all of this and whatnot, since I can no longer view that website, but there are MANY others in the same boat as me that don't have Raskal in their corner, and I don't need to even go out on a limb to tell you they won't get shit. Everyone should get their money back, and the list of people that deserve at least that is LONG.

So for my FIRST POST here...(Oh the joy!)...


So let me get this straight, Papi...

You placed an order and did not receive it for whatever reason - then placed another order without determining what went wrong the first time around?

I have had ZERO problems, none whatsoever with buying my beans at the Pimps and actually find that site to have the least amount of trival BS (like this rant) of ANY site out there when it comes to intelligent discussions with bottom line hard core growers. (Which is why I usually don't post ....go figure.)

Why do you think that swerve and rascal and other top breeders share their work and their rep there anyways?

Just to "set you up"?

Please..............

And despite your the opinion expressed in your post here Papi, I still would not trade the Pimps for any other place to talk turkey about popping - or buying - my beans.

Look everybody has issues in this business given the legal climate, but really to flame on these open forums about a private matter then try and jam them as thieves is pretty freakin' lame, imvho.

If you could learn to read we ALL tryed to talk to ripz in a private matter, when we did tis we got BANNED! Geez dude if your going to give your 2 cents then at least read first. Therefore making them THIEVES. Good try though!

Well Dude, I guess it IS a personal thing then 'cus only a select few seem to have issues - and I really doubt they are limited to the Pimps.

Go figure.

And I can read just fine, sport. It ain't rocket science to see a whiner the first time around.

I guess you're just ban bait in the end, right?

Sure hasn't been a problem with a whole lot of folks, so your tragic tales just don't add up to systematic thievery despite your experiences.

And like I said, your brilliant conclusions if true sure say a lot about all the top Breeders out there like Raskal and swerve that continue to support PotPimps doesn't it?

Oh right, I guess they didn't consult you first before passing their gear to ripz....(I'm sure that will be corrected next time around...LOL!)

Carnack, MANY PM's were sent to Ripz to resolve this matter - MANY! You state that there are very few people complaining, but have you actually looked around? Look at his feedback thread and tell me if you see anything negative at all. You won't find anything because despite the claims that nothing will be removed, it is just the opposite, and the ones that spoke out about it were banned. We weren't banned for NOT paying, we weren't banned for anything other than telling the truth - FACT! As far as me ordering after an order wasn't received, apparently you didn't read my initial post, but that's ok since you don't appear to be a thinker, just a sheep. I'll tell you again why I ordered again, and let's hope this time your reading comprehension is mediocre. The order in September was blamed on the postal strikes, and I took that as a valid excuse and then ordered again. In total here we're talking about 3 separate orders (one could argue it was four separate orders because of the auction items) which total 6 separate packs of beans. In reference to Swerve and Raskal selling their seeds there, until recently Swerve had NO beans at PP, and until recently Raskal had no idea about these problems. On top of all that, they are the "shoemaker, not the shoe seller." When I have a problem with a product I would most likely talk to Nike about it, but when I have a problem with the sales end of things, the first person to notify would be footlocker. Is any of this getting through, anything at all?

And again, what I state is 100% truth. There is nobody that can dispute my claims unless they lie. Put yourself in a position to be out a bit of money and tell me you wouldn't be singing a different tune. Better yet, put yourself in my position....

I love the tact you guys take by attacking the intellect of the responder as somehow not getting your "tragic plights" as a meaningful explanation why somebody simply fails to share your logic. Condescending and trite...a perfect storm for the downtrodden.

Allow me to pause to shed a tear...

Any way you slice it Papi, even if true....you did not receive an order - then ordered again! Talk about being intellectually challenged!

I am sure as long as you and others continue to whine and bitch and moan there will be a few folks that actually believe that thin gruel pablum you are passing out. But eventually they will realize that there are folks too that have had ZERO issues with the Pimps. And if the "sheep" as you so eloquently call them have a brain cell between them, they will catch on that the top breeders in the community do not care to embrace your personal demons and continue to support ripz and Pot Pimps - and just maybe they will just sign up for the some of the best gear for the money in the biz.

Of course that would take independent thought wouldn't it?.

I guess that leaves out most of your rabble rousers doesn't it?

(BTW, feel free to look up any of these multi-syllable words at your leisure. I'm sure you have lots of free time to further your education.)

Your post is neither eloquent, nor intelligent; it just appears as someone trying a bit too hard to come across as a scholar and one to listen to. Irrelevent, your argument is that it was foolish of me to take Ripz's word for why the September order was never delivered and then order again. Is that correct? If that is the argument you are trying to make than yes, it was foolish of me to believe Ripz. I agree with you 100%, and that is what I am trying to get across to others. Thank you for pointing that out, and I'm glad that even though we don't see eye-to-eye, we still can agree on the main item of issue.

Really this lame act is growing old with your ridiculous rubber hose mentality.

If you actually expect someone to hold a reasonable discussion with you I suggest you try seeing BOTH sides of the argument. Not simply the rarefied view from your lofty soapbox.

I guess that is asking too much from what I can see. So let's not bother with this ridiculous banter.

You had a bad experiences; I have had good ones.

That is ALL the fact there is to it. Everything else is just white noise. Those odds can be replicated at every site which sells beans in the world. Whining about it is just a personal lame problem nothing more and in the end it won't make a whit of difference to anyone.

I see in this post that you didn't go out or your way to sound intelligent, so for that I applaude you. In your previous post you sounded like Mike Tyson.

Moving on, you call this a "rubber hose mentality," yet the way I see it is I'm simply responding (or you may call it a retort) to your responses and opinions to my actual experiences with this seed bank. I have stated that two orders during the summer went through, yet when September came around, everything went "south." The seed bank doesn't have the same goals that they used to have, and now they think they are bigger than life. Having members like you (if you're not Ripz, which I doubt), just validates for them that you are worthy, and also validates that they can just accept money and rip people off at will and (somehow) have people agree with their decisions. If you think this is a rare occurance, just look around a bit - NOT on PP, and you will find that this is COMMON. There are MANY that have been ripped off, and many more to come. You have been warned by me,and you probably will be warned by others, but until you actually get ripped you will sing songs of praise, which is unfortunate. If I were you I'd just sit back and listen, as opposed to telling people that you know how they run shop. I made that mistake in August and now I feel foolish.

By the way, if I were to see both sides of the argument, what is a good reason for 6 separate packs in 3-4 separate orders NOT showing up? What would be the reason for NOT at the very least providing a tracking number or two (or 3 or 4)? What would be the argument of NOT getting even a reasonable response to ANY of my PM's? You need to look at both sides of this issue more than me, since you have ZERO insight into my situation, let alone others' situations.

I find this hard to beleive seeing as you are seeing one side of the issue. The forum owners side that makes no sense unless you are Ripz himself or one of his chronies!

As far as cali connect and OG raskal if you would read you would know that those breeders make Ripz prepay for their gear and AGAIN if you would read and I guess comprehend you would understand that Raskal went to bat for HNIC over there at the pimp I guess that means ripz-off is no longer correct now is he?...... but I am sure that has been removed from the forum though. I repped and stood up for Ripz and PP till I was banned for, according to ripz, getting 4 packs of "testers" from LG and then did a grow log that was agreed upon.( perfect reason seeing as really what happened I pm'ed and posted about my payment taking so long this last time) He seemed to forget the 4 payed orders of $200.oo, $150.oo, $200.00, and the infamous "Lost" $150.oo when I asked about it I was banned.

You're not alone. Bastard stole my $150 and then promptly banned me after complaining in his forum about no seeds and no contact. Beware of this site and its scumbag proprietor Ripz. STAY AWAY!

Stoney sorry to hear you were banned I myself suffered the same fate. You and another member were posting about your issue and lot of members there took it to you guys. You were a customer there like me who was ripped off, those that said you should be more patient are sheep and nothing else. We all deserved better then what we received but I believe in karma and his time will come and it will not be pretty.
Just a warning to those going to pimp for there needs there is a very strong possibility you might not get your order.

very true my friend !!!!
