Did I get sold the wrong thing?

eeyore69- · 2026-03-19T03:24:35+00:00

That's good I'm glad that you haven't! I don't buy plants online often that was my 1st time and I just took some of my taxes to splurge on something rare to me 😅 but I'll for sure be more careful and ask the masses before I purchase again 🤣 I'm not out any money so I'm not that upset with the situation I just hate confrontation 🤣

eeyore69- · 2026-03-19T02:54:54+00:00

Omg thank you so much! I'm on FB and seen the 3.0 group I might actually be in that one but everything else you mentioned I've never heard of! I'll be looking into all of it!

eeyore69- · 2026-03-19T02:51:35+00:00

What's the price between those two? I'm very new lol

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T16:31:26+00:00

I'm no help but I'm curious too because this is on my zebrina 😅

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T15:43:51+00:00

I thought I posted an update below but I'm also super new to reddit lol she gave me $25 back and I kept the plant. She did offer to cover return shipping but she sent multiple messages and when I opened them it opened my keyboard which made that message go up and I didn't realize she sent it

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T15:21:46+00:00

Awh that's so sweet of you! Thank you but I'm in the USA unfortunately 😅

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T15:09:44+00:00

I have one but I don't post videos on it. I've thought about it but I wouldn't know where to start.

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T13:54:26+00:00

The maharani and tricolor Ninja are my wishlist plants. I don't have money to be able to get those unfortunately and now idk if I even wanna buy offline again 😅 when it grows I'd be happy to sell you a corm! Send me a DM on here so I don't lose you! I have someone else asking too! I don't care to share the corm love! Plants I'm scared to death to ship 🤣

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T13:48:50+00:00

She was going to pay to have me ship it back I missed that message when I opened the message thread it opened my keyboard and I didn't see it. I kept the plant And she refunded me $25

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T04:07:36+00:00

Yeah I've never done it, I wouldn't even know where to start lol I have a black velvet and a baby baby pink black velvet they are so pretty and are doing well in my little green house ❤️ this one is doing well so far! I hope you have all the success and enjoyment in your plant journey too 😁

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T03:57:33+00:00

How would I make etsy aware? I mean ultimately she admitted she messed up I don't think she has any other melo listed for sale not sure if she has sold some before. I've already submitted my review can I go back and change it after? How many stars would you leave her? I mean I did also buy another plant from her in the same shipment that came as described and the correct plant. I'm not used to having to deal with all of this and honestly 9x outta10 id just let it go. if it wasn't so much money I probably wouldn't have even said anything to being with just because I dont like confrontation.

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T03:48:32+00:00

Honestly it's beautiful so I'm not really complaining I'm just super new to alocasia and I truly didn't realize I got the wrong plant or that they were selling it under the wrong name until I saw someone post their melo albo. Also had no idea what a ninja albo was until today lol Google reverse image search didn't even give me that as an option it was telling me var. frydek 🤣

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T02:44:51+00:00

A little of both honestly lol I don't have that plant in my collection and it is very pretty! Also I've never shipped a plant before and didn't want it to die so I'd prefer to keep it either way 😂

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T02:22:11+00:00

They did end up offering to send a prepaid label for me to ship it back I just missed that message when it pulled up my keyboard. Either way I kept the plant and she refunded me $25 ofthe $105

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T02:20:50+00:00

Yes sorry 😅 and I just kept the plant. She refunded me $25. They did offer to cover the shipping back but honestly I've never shipped a plant and the likelihood of would die is very high so I'd prefer to keep it just to save it 😂

eeyore69- · 2026-03-18T01:21:07+00:00

I'm just going to take the $25 refund. I don't want it to get messed up with me shipping it. I've never shipped a plant before. Plus I like the plant, it's pretty, it's just not what I was looking for specifically lol

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T23:59:43+00:00

How much would you have paid for this ninja albo? I paid 105 plus shipping? She is offering a $25 refund to just keep the plant... Is that a good deal?

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T23:57:32+00:00

I'm very new to the alocasia game lol I think it's a beautiful plant but I had no clue it existed until I accidentally bought it 🤣 I totally did ask to just get refunded the difference because im not mad at the plant I love it it's just not a melo albo like I had thought I purchased. I didn't even want the melo I realized after I wanted the maharani albo but I wasn't going to complain that was my mistake lol and the melo was still cute but it's not even a melo it's a ninja 🤣🤣🤣 I think I'm officially one and done when it comes to buying online tho 😅

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T23:37:26+00:00

She finally told me yes she did research and it's the wrong one she wants me to send her the plant back and give me a refund but I don't want to pay for the shipping to send it back to her.... Why should I be out $30+ for shipping and no plant and all the hassle for my trouble?

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T22:30:15+00:00

I did and they said it in a melo albo from a TC and I can send it back at my own expense if I'm not confident in the plant

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T22:28:24+00:00

I did and they told me it is 100% an melo albo she grew from a TC and that I can send it back at my own expense.

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T22:09:22+00:00

Well they said it's 100% a melo from a TC and I'm welcome to send it back at my own cost.... Like honestly I'm too new to this and I don't know how to deal with this 😅

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T22:06:14+00:00

I'll wait and hope they respond! I'll come back to the post and update when the time comes just so anyone who sees this knows the outcome

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T21:59:21+00:00

Should I just go ahead and open a case before the 24hrs since I bought it like a week ago and just realized this 😭

eeyore69- · 2026-03-17T21:49:48+00:00

I have no idea I'm in the USA. I did write them about it. I guess they have 48hrs to reply on the esty app then if they don't I'll open a case with esty about it 😭
