Overall an easy, accurate ordering experience. However, I am concerned about promoting Chondracanthus chamissoi from Peru as Chondrus crispus from colder, northern coastlines. In today's global market, replacing one red alga with another, totally different genus / species is disingenuous.
Easy to use website, fast check out and most important you had what i wanted when everyone else is sold out or charging ridiculous prices,
Thank you very much look forward to receiving my package..
