Yes, this was the vendor selling a bad plant. You don't have to stop going there, just stop making rookie mistakes. They might try to sell you bad stuff hoping to clear their shelves and make money, but you also have the power to say yes or no.
There's always the return policy (unless all sales are final).
Can you post a picture of this Dtps Kenneth Schubert in which you question it's validity? Where'd you get it from?

This is the picture I posted here on the orchid board - several people told me this is indeed a Kenneth Schubert. I was definitely expecting rounder leaves. The pictures on the web that I've found for a full plant have the same leaf type.
I got the orchid from IronWood Orchids Estate - out of North Carolina.
I'll call the vendor and see what they'll do. I seriously doubt that at this point, there's much they will do. It's been several weeks since I received the orchid. They have a five day return policy. Heh. . .now I know what to look for as far as dry roots are concerned, though, so lesson learned.
