Ok I tried to order 3 packages of Vintner's Harvest SN9 yeast on the big A site. Today I received my order, ahead of schedule.
NOW for the RANT !
Sadly NOT the brand I ordered. I received "Mangrove Jack's" brand of that strain when their advertisement stated it was Vintner's Harvest. This was both the picture they posted on the ad and in the product description. When I checked their "Store" on "A" they don't even list the strain of yeast in the brand they shipped me. Elsewhere I did find the brand they sent me for as low as $2.79 a package instead of the price I paid which came out to $5.59 per package. Yes, free shipping but really folks, I almost ordered the brand I wanted from someone else at $20.80 for 5 packages plus shipping
Sigh - sometimes it's ridiculous trying to find good suppliers. This brand of yeast is hard to find AND from someone else on her Mangrove Jack' is an iffy product and their support is non-existent.
Already received a response from the seller stating that the Mangrove Jack's brand is actually repacked for the Vintner's Harvest company ECKraus ??
Not thrilled and I'll wait until I have tried the yeast before giving it a thumb's up/down.
