Anyone here bought from Ebay seller giorgos-arvanitis?

Hello:

I searched this forum but didn't see anything conclusive about whether this seller sells good or fake stuff... If someone has bought from this person, would you please share your purchase experience?  Thank you in advance.  :)))

If those pictures are "fake" I don't know what is real!

Check the feedback.

Especially anything negative. People are petty also, so you should read it if they are there.

If you have a question, when cut, in-ground, taste etc., ask them. If you have noticed, people who really have figs love them and are happy to talk about them.

A chippy  answer is usually a clue. New does not mean bad either.

Pictures of plant and fruit. Unknowns are whatever someone calls them, lol.

Good luck my friend, I hope you do well. Most people are very nice.

He sells excellent cuttings. I have dealt with him many times. The cuttings are always a good size and wrapped nice and tight in plastic wrap.

He doesn't post here a lot but he is Ektor on this forum.

Thank you. I am new to growing figs, so don't know how to tell finding good buyers on Ebay. :))

Thank you Vinny for the information. :)))

Sorry to take over bigmeowkila, but for those of you who have said you purchased from him in the past, was it on eBay? Was there an issue with the usda?

I've never bought from him, just enjoyed the pictures over the years and am confident they are his own. From what I understand bigmeowkila is not in the U.S. 

The USDA will get a report of any plant material purchased from overseas on eBay.

Thank you. Yes I do not live in the US and I am buying to send as a gift to a friend in Asia. They don't have restrictions on receiving cuttings there.  But it looks like it is not easy to win a bid for his/her cuttings anyways.  :)))

What varieties are you after most of those are available in the US from Harvey . There are other trusted Greek sellers too who might be able to give you more information .
