I bought some olosapo seeds from him, never came. He gave me a tracking number for my Parcel. I manage to find out by myself going to a Mexican website to check the status. With the help of Google translate, it seems the parcel was stuck at customs at a Long time. I ask him to help, no reply.

Maybe you have better luck with him. But I am not sure.

Cheers

He sent me an empty envelope. Informed him and he played innocent. Total scammer.

Agreed.  Top shelf guy.  He makes real effort to find good stuff all over the country and neighboring countries….  Though his collecting is limited bc of Covid

Hilarious! This has turned into a Raul appreciation thread. I agree, Raul is a reliable and top notch seed vendor, collector, and fruit friend.,

He has sent me numerous seeds to Australia and never had a problem with him sending the seeds or the quality. Australian customs destroyed some packages for no reason but most came through. Just recently received some purple ilama seeds frim him, you need to see the fruit! By far the strongest purple on an ilama I've seen

I would also recommend Raul.  Got some beautiful germinated Luc’s garcinia seeds from him, came relatively quickly, no issues, awesome seller. 


It’s always a risk sending international, but someone sending empty envelopes isn’t something I would want to be dealing with.

I've bought some seeds from him.  They made it with no problem but I haven't tried germinating them yet.
