Name: Dee Stewart Willamette Valley OR Snowpeak Iris
there is a gal from Omaha Neb. that will post all over any and all sites and forums wanting iris for postage, which by the way she never pays. Now she is contacting our members via cmail for iris. Diana is her name she is not a good person and we are doing every thing we can to stop her from doing to our members what she has done to others on all the other sites.
Thanks for the heads-up, Polly and Dee. I'm happy to share rhizomes for postage with legitimate members -- but am not interested in providing income for unscruplous persons.
Every day is a second chance. Every day is precious time.
She asked me most recently for "Indian Chief". Surprised that she wanted such and "old" iris as I do not see much of a market for this one; but any amount of free will do I guess.
The issue I see is if she starts to hide here hometown on the forum and only reveals after trade communications. We will all have to be smart about trades.

I have not talked to Polly about this but I think it would be a good idea to have a llist of traders real names hidden except to Polly and I and then if you will send us the infor we can keep a master list kinda like they did before here.

I will start
NThurston, if you are lucky to trade with him he is super A1 in my books.
I agree, because some traders who are super duper don't really care to trade. They will do occasional trades, and we don't want people asking them for trades if they don't want to do it. And I'm not talking about our members. I'm talking about people like Diana.

Suggested if you are contacted by anyone that you have not seen on the forum before to buy for postage or trade go to the membership list and SEE when they joined.
Please, please, I have nothing against the Amish. Our Amish folks around here are very hard working and upright citizens. Self supporting, I like that. Kind, gentle people.
My daughter saw an ad for a Puggle and it was oh, so, cute. She talked to the man who had it, it was just born to a family pet, so she drove to Ohio to get it. Turned out it was an Amish puppy mill. Further checking into the area where she got it turned up tons of Amish puppy mills. How very sad. She got the dog, and it needed a lot of medical care.

It was reported by one of our members that she had contacted her for postage.
I have checked the membership and either Dave caught her or she canceled out.
I love the Amish so that is nothing against the Amish and do not want anyone to think or feel that way.
It is just this person she is not a nice person at all and all she does is take and sells them. Beware of her BIG TIME
I hate to think this is becoming an irismill. As my list keeps growing.
90% is her and her alone.
Please people if you are contacted by anyone you do not recognize the name or handle, check to see when they joined, she usually only waits less than a week or so.
I have had a few occations, one rather recent where people have agreed to some iris for postage, and told me they would send a check on a given day. So trustworthy me, I dig a big box full to send them, mark them, and have them ready to ship, only to never hear from them again. So, they dry up and get put onto the compost pile. Now I don't dig until I have the money. I have also had some really good trades with members on here and ATP. I guess I usually trust people until they give me a reason not to.
I always make sure the person who wants iris sends me here postage payment first.then i send out the iris.there are so many great people here. not everyone here is a scammer. dennis
