Just a thought, although you have probably tried it - if you follow the link (you may need to copy and paste it and be signed in to e bay) there is a link on this page where you can report listing violations of prohibited plants and seeds. http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/plantsandseeds.htm

[OGD] Stripping the woods again...

2005-04-19 Thread David S.
Last year I wrote about a seller on eBay that was auctioning mass quantities of Cypripedium acaule. I'm talking about up to 15 lots of 300 plants, along with very large quantities of smaller lots. Their seller name is "kyatvrider", which I interpret to mean Kentucky All-Terrain Vehicle rider. I

>I've been following the discussion re the ebay seller offering large lots of Cyp acaule & applaud everyone's enthusiasm to prevent taking of native plants. However, if you look more closely at the ebay site (I agree, it's poorly done) under "Store Policies", "Specialization" near the top of th

David, your All-Terrain rider is no chemist. Check his pH desciptions: " 4.5 or below (very acidic) 4.6 to 5.0 (highly acidic) 5.1 to 5.5 (strongly acidic)". Following this system, you'd soon arrive at: pH 7 (strips the skin off your hands). Peter O'Byrne Singapore __

There's a person on eBay called Chase's Plants & Prints from McKee, Kentucky that is apparently stripping the woods around them of Cypripedium acaule. They are offering them them in lots of up to 300 plants with fifteen lots available. That's 4,500 plants! They also appear to be stripping these w
