No I understand. I really do. You make a lot of good points. My point was really more to do with the "time" involved in this. And believe me when I say, I understand on a very deep level how important "time" is. You can never get it back. Its something that haunts me day and night.
I'm confident Gu will find a solution but at the same time no seasoned grower I know would ever bank their whole season on genetics with known sensitivity issues....regardless if these are bunk or not. Even if these were the real deal Holyfield cuts used I fully expected herm reports. These are the type of genetics you hunt through and then do a production run.
The guy probably feels terrible and he's going to lose not only money but some integrity. He's always been straight up with me so I still say give him time to find a workable solution. I don't recall anyone claiming Gu should be absolved of anything.

And the whole Macys' vs Canal street might apply to cologne but it certainly doesn't apply to all high end items. If you buy a Coach or LV handbag you damn well better have a receipt because they will not authenticate it even if you have the certificate of authenticity with you. They tell you to take it up the manufacturer, which for me would be an 8 hour drive.

Gu isn't telling anyone to take their issues up with SAG...which is what most seedbanks do. He's backing them with the same guarantee as everything else. And you can bet there are snakes reading this thread right now that will attempt to exploit that.
And yeah, he should've popped a few but hindsight's 20/20. As others have stated he's learned an invaluable lesson here.

no no no.. if you buy a bag from Macys and its knockoff and then they check their inventory and it turns out they bought bags they thought were real but in fact "fell off a damn truck" you can sue Macys. We're not talking about sum shysters who buy a real bag from Macys and then trying to scam the store by claiming its a knockoff.. we are talking about a real store accidentally selling bullshit.

Gu cant tell ppl to take their issues up with SAG because he wasn't really forthecoming with that info until a little later.. He didnt sell the S1s as "SAG Seeds" or "copycat genetics".. he put his stamp of approval on it all the way to the "looked him in the eyes" comment. You say hindsight's 20/20 but the thing about being a business man, and not sum jo shmo on the street, is you have to practice due diligence and have sum foresight to see the problems before they happen. Now Im not sayin he should be a fortune teller but before you sell beans from sum chump that could be gold.. you better do more than just "look him in the eyes".

"learned an invaluable lesson".. Im sorry but he's been doing his thing long enough to learn this shit is completely unacceptable. It's not like he was selling sum established breeders beans.. I hate to say he got what he had coming, but he should have at least popped sum of these beans before he started trying to make the PROFIT... foresight is cheap... hindsight is gonna cost his ass.

Im in no way saying Gu's a bad guy.. but he fukd up... lets not paint this as a learning moment

I find it odd that all the reports I have read are male....what, no females at all? Why ALL male?
There are certainly many of us that KNOW WITH OUT A DOUBT that GU is a stand up dude, with THE BEST customer service, and great gear.
This is all very unfortunate for both sides.
Got a feeling this will actually be a blessing for Greenpoint in the long run. Especially after how the masses see how he handles all this.
