Darn. He's probably close by since we're both in in NNJ. Interesting though: After doing a search there's no posts that explain why. There's just one that references banned members with his name but no further info.

Dave, can you elaborate or send me a PM if more appropriate? Thanks!

You should try ourfigs as another source. Many are very familiar with him and you may get some feedback.

Figgi11 No point drenching the past it's been very peaceful here I don't think there is any reason not to trust RichinNJ and one other thing I don't think he is a member of Ourfigs

Caught off- guard here. That's why I asked. Not familiar with the guy at all.

Agree - I would consider Rich a reputable dealer.

Hi,
Don't you know the saying: the more you move manure/sh*t the more it stinks ?
So stop tilling it, and let it stay settled.
And like they say: How 'bout them figs !
