Hi D-Grower, can you send star fruit seeds abroad USA / internationally?   Regards

Hi Skhan, Do you use chemicals to kill pests? If so, which ones?
Regards. Dominik

Happy for you bro, those look like pretty decent (insanely good) prices for trees on eBay.  Outside my price range unfortunately but it's good to know your craft is appreciated and rewarded.  Keep it up.

Orkine, the price (outside the classical one: the price regulates the demand) in this case is a derivative of two things:
1) The American market is almost hermetic (closed) and formally practically blocked for producers from the rest of the world. The official reason for pest control; however, the matter is more complex and can mainly be based on reborn protectionism.
2) A small supply of similar plants in the US (with the option of shipping and purchasing via the Internet) with an excess of buyers. Hence the price that similar trees achieve. In poorer countries it is possible to mass produce such trees at a price of USD 20-40 USD max. So in poorer regions price level higher than 50-100 USD  is only an unfulfilled dream of producers.

Despite this perspective, I agree with you that the price achieved by Adam on eBay is extremely good.

No. After ordering, no any contact with seller. Probably a cheater. Please stay away!

People in America have a great gesture!
From the initial price of USD 0.1, they have now been up to over USD 500 in one day! and two days to the end. This is a great achievement for this unique plant slightly larger than a large foot. Im very impressed! Do you think Adam that it will "break" 1000 USD?

I do not know how others are reading but I feel encouraged to grow similar plants. And it's not only about money, but also an interestingly illustrated physiognomy of a mother's tree, which is very interesting On the other hand, with the eyes of my imagination, I see that in a moment 1/3 of the crew of this forum will starting to cultivate plinia

Msk, there is no response yet.

Probably an avalanche of mud has cut off the "seller" cable internet connection and destroyed its seed stocks. I'm guessing that as soon as the service restores his connection, he'll let us know everything, including the fact that he lost our payments...

Colleagues, at these prices I never risk more than 10-20 USD for the first time. That's what I took a chance this time. The fact that decent seeds are often 5-10 times more expensive does not change the form of things that in this case there may be ordinary theft. Probably if we refer to this post (and indicate as the reason for the request a refund - no shipping and no contact with the seller) paypal will give us the payment without any problems. If it is confirmed that we fell victim of theft, it is a request to admin to moderate entries (only partial covering addresses) and put a warning (and not to delete) because not everyone can make a copy of the offer page on the forum and we will not have anything to call with paypal.

Druss, I have similar information like Saltman. I received the last message from Victor on 30/04/2018. In addition, for some time there is a problem with shipping seeds from Brazil. Their customs officers confiscate outbound shipments. It is a mistake that somebody officially limits the business of their own citizens. Perhaps this was the main reason for reducing / stopping or suspending Victor's activity. From several conversations with Victor, I conclude that he is a noble man with a good heart. I hope it that he is whole and healthy. Some solution is to write to him directly (if someone has a stationary address and really wants to know if everything is ok with him).

Giampaolo, can you describe exactly the average dimensions and average weight of the ripe fruit? Regards.

Thanks for an answer Michael and Polux, but it was question addressed to Zoli, because he is the seller.

Different guarantee standards apply in different countries (and also for seeds). In most cases, the customer expects efficient products, however, sometimes the warranty details are detailed in the descriptions. I would like to obtain the official position of the seller.

Do you think that this type of information is extremely important for the buyer and should be in a professional offer?

I think there are too many variables for a seller to guarantee live seeds (Customs, lost mail, etc.)

The guarantee (regardless of product type) is standard in large sales websites (eg eBay) and wherever you use Paypal by paying for the product purchased in the company. Writing about the guarantee, I am not writing here about the loss of the parcel confiscated by customs officers, but about the parcel delivered to the customer in full (not affected).

I bought
some Pataxte seeds from seedpirates last year and half of them germinated.

Is this sprouted half still alive or has she died?

Hi Lilith-vzla, I asked a similar question about the operation of the Venezuelan mail in another thread. I apologize if someone thinks this is duplicating the entry, but I would like to ask you a little more here. I think this may help to change the fame (as far as delivery time is concerned) with Venezuelan mail;) especially if there has been improvement in their work. What are the differences in the time of parcel delivery by regular Venezuelan mail and DHL in the case of shipping to Europe? Regards

But you should’nt even be able to see or bid on my auctions if you aren’t located in the USA, or PR

I gave your entries as an example, because there are probably the most on the forum. However, the case concerns all possible similar entries.
 
Thanks for explanation FlyingFoxFruits. I understand the specificity of sales in auctions. As you have noticed, your forum sales entries in connection with the specificity of the auction should not include the price visible to everyone (because these are private ads). However, the requirement to provide a price in each sales notification is included in the rules of this forum section. Thanks to this, the same prices are visible to everyone. Someone may judge that such entries do not meet the requirements of the forum regulations, or that there are some exceptions (not described). If you entered the price of the buy now on the auction and gave the price on the forum, the matter would be clean and fully compliant with the rules of the forum. Currently, the situation is different. That's why I'm going to clarify the matter. By agreeing to the auctions in this section we are going back to the option that was earlier. Previously the price was determined privately and no one knew what she was.

The question to the administrator was briefly as follows: whether by the requirement to enter the price in the offer can be omitted by providing links to the bid auctions / private auctions etc? Some forums have 100% excluded linking to the auctions due to the short lifespan of such entries, and therefore their lack of transparency. As I described earlier: after some time the thread becomes illegible to the recipients, and the forum loses some of the value of the information store. FlyingFoxFruits, maybe some solution would be to enter in your forum entries - the initial price and the price for which the product was sold? Then, the requirement to provide prices would seem to be fulfilled and the forum would keep the treasure trove of information. I would like to know if the admin provided an exception in this matter and linking the auction is acceptable in this forum. Simple explanation of the matter and description of the exception, so that everything is clear.
