I hope this helps.

Thank you! After posting I thought I’d look it up, and there it was!

I didn’t want to imply that Orchid Insanity was doing anything strange. I mostly wanted to state that if something doesn’t look right on a sale of an orchid, that there are resources to check and research prior to purchase.

I think, too, as a point to newer/inexperienced buyers who are buying from an online vendor, vendors who have several storefronts (such as Amazon and their own website and etsy) seem a little more reputable than ones that have only an eBay store with few sales, for example. But I bought a few orchids from an eBay seller who was selling a few plants from his private collection. Nice plants.

Really, if it doesn’t feel right, may be worth waiting. Though if you’re able to find a plant in a store and have the same feeling, well, same advice.
