You would think that after being reported for over two years that they must realize that they are a

laughing stock in gardening forums,tease.gif

 

A number of other scam listings  are still available in the Rose category,stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

Of course people would think they could cut a lemon open and see that. Why wouldn't they? It's on the internet, therefore it must be true. The internet would never lie. Remember, these are the same nong that think they're buying rainbow roses and rainbow gum trees.

joe, don't flatter yourself.  I have a good method of filing things away in my brain.  When I read something I can recall things that might be associated with what I am reading.

 

Since you just happen to have posted an opinion on just about everything this year joe . . . . . I could possibly relate any post to something you have written, but there is no book.  I especially remember things that I read that are very very silly.

That's exactly why these listings sell as buyers believe that they are getting a genuine item,shok.gif

 

Most will get seeds that may be lemon seeds but there is no guarentee.

 

As the fake seeds mentioned on here take longer than 60 days to arrive and then produce their first

 

"crop" the sellers are safe from negative feedback and the MBG,(as they can't be returned in the same

 

state that they were received in),stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

Re: It started as one.

correct it must be pretty silly of me to go to a fruit shop in the city and find produce thats everywhere but not in country towns ,  you should try it sometimes in the city we have choice. 

 

by the way these are called donut peaches they have been around for years  , in my fruit shop for at least 5 years maybe not all of the shops , in fact they look ugly .
