I'll agree with this. I also had a bad experience with Peter Paul's. It
involved a dead Drosera which he wouldn't take back. He said it was in
hibernation. I said it was deceased, ceased to be, it was a DEAD Drosera (it
wasn't pining for the bloody fjords!) which he sent me. I didn't send it
back, however, figuring it wouldn't be easy to get my money back (I guess I
was right). And I'm not even mentioning the questionable state of several
VFTs I got from him.
