This is not to comment on Oregon Exotics' business practices, because I've
never done business with them. However, they still are in business; I
received a catalog from them a couple of months ago. -- Sam Brungardt, St.

I requested a catalogue from Oregon Exotics on-line several years ago for
$5. My credit card was accepted, I got the bill, and still haven't seen the
catalogue in spite of e-mails and phone messages. I thought about going to
the better business bureau in OR but figured I'd spend more than $5 trying
to recover the dough. Caveat emptor! It's too bad. I was interested in
their Snow-kist citrus to try under an unheated cover here. I'm not aware
of anyone else who carries that item, although perhaps there's a lesson in
that too;-)

years ago, they messed up the order so badly, and then were so impossible to
get ANY response from, I sort of assumed that they were on their way out.
