I have only recived seeds from this site and Mr. Kulirich's. I plan to plant these this spring so I had nothing to trade with except the seeds I saved from my 96# AG from last year....lol..Tom

I worked out a trade to recieve a 780 Eaton. It was supposed to be in the mail. Luckily, i ran out of bubble packs and was not able to get my seeds in the mail yet. No loss on my end, other than respect and trust in others.

Mikkal has sent me a private e-mail stating that he is going to return my seed. Thank you, Mikkal!

i went throught he same thing stan, but i got my so called 712 in trade. mikkal traded me a fake 712 kuhn seed. I know this for i investigated and finally got him to admit to it. He says it was a 681 kuhn...he probably doesn't even know what it is. He was sent a 712 in mid december sometime...so he does have one. Who knows what he has done with it. probably stashed away in his room with all his other seeds. He is (I hope) going to send my seeds back i traded him in that trade, he is (hopefully going to do) the right thing, but my trust in him is still very low.

We gotta come up with a method of verifying seeds. How many properly cared for plants can you possibly grow in the rest of your lifetime? I have more "GENUINE" top seeds than I could possibly ever grow in my days left on this dirt clod called earth. I certianly dont have time to waste growing some crappy little "who knows what" seed. Especially since I only will grow two at home, and one pumpkin per plant!

I also fell for the 712 scam. I sent Mikkal a Holland 903 and a Handy 810 for a Kuhn 712. I hope he keeps his promise to return the seeds he got in his little "scam"

I hope you get them back Len. Those are good seeds. Before this thing broke open, I felt sorry for him and sent him some seeds to start over. Now, mine were not that great, so for me it isn't a big loss. But if he got seeds like that from a lot of people, I hope he puts it right.

Hey stan I was just wondering what was the valuable seed/seeds you sent to our little "friend"

Len....When I checked with Joel a few weeks ago, he has no more 903's....better hang on to it! If you want to trade ....give me a holler!

I mailed Mikkal the 903 and 810 on December 28. As of yesterday morning I still had not received the Kuhn 712 I traded for. I e-mailed Makkal and asked him to return the 903 and 810. He replyed saying he had mailed me a REAL 712 the day before. Should I trust him? Can someone provide a general description of what a REAL Kuhn 712 looks like?

Len,
I have a bad feeling if a seed is heading your way, it is not going to be a 712. My 712 that Jim sent me is tan, medium size, slightly flat..Joe P.
