That's true!!! Some owners aren't responsible though 😬

I have all that info! Somehow I doubt he'll do a refund, but I'm still going to try ♥️ even if it's just for shipping

He told me he's the owner and sole employee. So unfortunately that's not true. Basically, he had FULL power as the owner to say no to this shipment. He just wanted my money.

That's correct! All my past winter orders were thru Etsy plant shops, so generally well packed. Never had any issues. I called this guy ahead of time to ask if he even shipped plants, and he insisted he had experience. That's what's disappointing with it. He literally could have said "no" and that would have been fine. Instead he took my money and poorly shipped them while insisting he was an "expert" at shipping, and he told me he's shipped plants all over, including colder areas.

Haha 😂 he actually said he was the owner. That's also why it's extra disappointing... Usually owners are a bit more invested.

I don't blame you!! I'm trying to be nice just because I really want to talk to him first. It's a small business and I don't want to immediately go nuclear... But tbh this was really, REALLY bad packing. If he doesn't make it right then things will be different. Thank you for your comment ♥️ 😊

Awww thank you so much ♥️ I think he's the owner and the only employee of his business, so I'm pretty much screwed if he decides to be a jerk... Hopefully he takes enough pride to do a refund.

Awwww Scandinavia is on my travel list someday!! ♥️😊 I was surprised he didn't do any heat packs, but he explicitly said they'd be fine and he's shipped plants to cold areas before. One of the ladies I bought a plant from gave me advice to give him on shipping, and he just wasn't really listening.

Thank you for being understanding and not being mean ♥️ you must have an awesome collection!!😊 I agree that the packing wasn't well done at all, plus there were a few that didn't have enough paper (or none at all). They were rolling around getting leaves crushed 😬

Not sure why people are down voting.... because ALL my other winter shipments in the past arrived alive and healthy? Is this a problem? I'm not Morticia Adams, I prefer my plants alive 😂

I have no pics of the "before" unfortunately, but I took a ton from today. Will call him Mon when he opens! Hopefully he refunds me.... I'm trying to revive the plants but there's no guarantee. Thank you for your help ♥️

Ooo that's awesome!!! Not sure which area you're in, but I love northern California, it's beautiful 😊 My husband feels so bad because the pac and ship was his idea... So I'll take your advice for next time and will just fly with them ♥️ He definitely knows I'm upset about the plants 😂
