Has anybody ordered anything from this vendor in the past 6-12 months on ebay? I'm interested in acquiring a flask from them. I'm kinda worried that it won't make it through customs without proper documentation, coming all the way from Thailand. I've submitted my request for an import permit PPQ 587, its not done processing yet. Thanks for your advise.

I may have, I forgot.

But...shipping flasks internationally doesn't require paperwork. You can buy with confidence.

Angry Warning Warning Beware!

This vendor centralbotanic2550 is not longer registered user on ebay
I bidded on auction for Dendrobium fytchianum, won and paid for this item. I learned this morning that he/she is longer a registered user after I had already paid. The nerve of some people, stealing forks money. it's on, I've file a dispute resolution if I don't hear back I'm escalating it to a claim.

I checked my ebay account recently, and yes I did purchase something from them.

Yes, they're currently no longer registered on ebay.

I did get my plants though.

So Chococatte, you may still get your Den. fytchianum.

BTW, I grow a Den. fytchianum. If you've got questions feel free to ask.

I hope you're right I'll get flask by next week, I paid them on 28th June. Came to find out yesterday that they're no longer a registered user. I get attack in ebay disscussion forum for trying to alert other buyers (that might have purchase something ) that this vendor is no longer registered user. I remember that in description seller stated that shipping would normally take any where from 7-12 days through Thailandpost using Standard Int'l Flat Rate Shipping. I haven't yet to hear a word from the seller whether they've ship the flask since I completed the transaction via PayPal. And I haven't gotten a response back from them in past 24 hours. when I filed a resolution dispute via PayPal yesterday upon learning they're no longer a register user.

Am I wrong or not?

Be patient. You'll find out soon enough. Just trust that I've had no problems with them when they were on ebay. Like I said I received my plants, even when they were no longer a registered user on ebay.

You'll know what to do. Stay calm.

Good luck.

if they were NARU than I shouldn't be able to bid on any of their auction items. BTW, what culture medium does Den. fytchnaium do best in?

Use seedling bark.

These Dendrobiums are fully deciduous and go dormant during the late fall through mid spring.

Mine are sprouting late, because I bought them in terrible condition. I only have one new sprout from one old cane. The old cane may not be around for much longer, so the pressure is on to keep the new one alive and well and sprouting more new babies.

These don't kheiki from all over the plant. They only produce kheikis from the base. Den. fytchianum blooms after all the leaves have dropped during the winter months. Flowers come out of the top of the canes. They have no fragrance to them.
