And I think RIUers (are we allowed to use that acronym, or is it our eye you?) are patting themselves on the back a little too much about bringing green point out from obscurity. Drops and tester releases he had two-three years ago (since I've been shopping with them at least) always were gone in a minute. Well before this thread started, greenpoint already had a big following. I'm not saying riu hasn't helped him, but he was established

But Gu actually lowered his prices, lol. He just had to change the gold nugget system. When his popularity was lacking he didn't have hundreds of orders coming in daily so giving someone $.50 for every dollar was financially feasible but now I'm sure that is just not possible. I mean you have to pay people to work for you when you run a business, then you got rent, utilities, packaging, insurance, taxes, lawyer retainers...

Where did you go to business school?

GU is here to make money -- from us.
We are here to get beans -- cheap.
Why is this so complicated for you?

What is complicated? And what business school teaches you to take a loss because a few cheap customers are complaining that they got packs and packs for dirt cheap but now have to pay basically full price?

If you don't like his new practice then don't buy it I guess man. I'm just looking at it from someone else's point of view than my own.

I guess , but I would think volume would be where the money is.
Usually people hire folks because their business is increasing and they can afford to do it.
But I'm not a business guy.
I'm not a hater or a whiner, but just see these things go bad before!

What a selfish way to look at things.
Dude is building a company and supplying nice jobs for people paying taxes but hell he had to negate costs of becoming more popular and having more customers. SMH

Why is that selfish?
He is a customer, and wants good deals.
If you grow, as a business, and your sales are increasing, why do you think prices should go up??
More money coming in.
Seems more selfish what Greenpoint is doing.
His breeding is not that complicated or expensive. He is taking one male into a room of clones and pollinating them.
That is probabl the cheapest, easiest, and least risky way of all.
Just like S1's.

Sorry but I don't buy Greenpoint.
Their gear just doesn't do it for me!
I have had soooooo much Chem, I just don't care to pick up crosses of the flavor of the month crossed with Chem.
I have plenty of my own Chem crosses.
They just a popular breeding type . Whatever is popular they make beans of.
Duplication is not origination!!

It is interesting that GU asked for help spreading the word about his business, then when word got out and sales improved, he jacked prices and neutered the rewards program.

Strange way of saying thanks... :roll:

Q: And what have we learned?
A: Spreading the word about greenpoint has negative consequences. Auctions become more competitive and prices go up.

Jacked the prices? Sheeeeit, I want what you're smoking kid.. 89<107
