Got some really interesting seeds from Joy. I love her garden forum name.
Thanks
Barb

I to had a nice trade with Joy and I hope to trade again sometime.Debbie

Joy is a real sweet lady, and as a newbie she is doing her best to learn about trading and how to find her way around the Garden Web. I hope we can all welcome her and help in any way she needs. : ) She sent me some lovely seeds and was very prompt! Thanks so much for the trade!

Cindy : )

I was told that I was her first trade. I only got half what she said she would send. I wont trade with her again until she sends the rest of the seeds promised. She was notified about this and has'nt fixed it.

Just had a happy trade with Joy. She sent me 3 HUGE cyclamen bulbs instead of the 10 tiny ones we agreed on.
Sometimes number counts, but in this case SIZE matters!!!
I'm totally impressed with what I have got and will trade with her again in fall, or next spring.

She sent me some wonderfully big and healthy brug cuttings which I can't wait to get planted. Everything was well packaged and shipped well. My first ever brugs and I am thrilled with them. Will gladly trade with her in the future.

Best to you and many, many thanks,

I just received my seeds from Joy and would happily trade with her again. ~Laura

Great trading with her. Very generous w/night blooming cereus. Nice person too.

I have just now traded with her and she is a great trader. She is a good communicator too. She replied me very promptly and sent the package fast. I got bay leaf plants and moringa, bitter melon and custard apple seeds. Wow! it was great. I was really looking for these rare seeds. I will trade with her again.

Great to trade with, would love to again.

Just finished another trade with Joy. She is so sweet, sends seeds very quickly in in great shape, wonderful communication. Will trade with her again anytime. : )

i have traded with Joy twice now and hope to be able to trade with her again in the future. She has the best seeds! and makes sure to send them while they are fresh, clearly labeled and in good quantity. She communicates well and is always very enthusiastic. Trade with her if you can, you won't be disappointed!

I just finished a trade with fluffybonbon and she not only was prompt but she also sent me extras and plenty of seed. Thankyou so much. I would recomend her tradeing with her.

I just did a trade with "fluffybonbon" and I am delighted. She not only sent me what I wanted, but she threw in a bonus.

This was a very easy transaction.

I have had multiple trades with Joy now and each one has been fast and a great trade. Thank you!

Great fast and healthy trade of mint cutting. Thanks Joy, I would trade with you anytime.

Just traded with Joy and she is a very fine lady to talk to and to trade with.

Dealing with fluffybonbon was a good experience:
* Communicated well
* Shipped promptly
* Sent more than expected
* Plants were in great condition

Would deal with again.

My trade with Joy was topnotch! She sent more seeds than I expected, was very prompt with mailing, had no problem meeting my time schedule (a snowbird returning home), and was helpful with providing germination info. I would trade with Joy again. Thanks, Joy!

I just completed a trade with Joy. Everything went smoothly. Would love to trade again. Thanks.

I just completed a trade with Joy, also. All the good things are said already so I'll just say THANK YOU for a pleasant trade, would recommend as trade partner to anyone.

I'm very surprised to see all of these great reviews because my trade with Joy did not go well at all.

She responded to my request for a plant, but then could not confirm that it was the plant that I wanted.
She told me that she would send it on the following monday & I also promised the same. I packed up my plants and had them ready to send, but then realized that it fell on a week where there was a holiday later in the week, so I emailed her to confirm if she still wanted me to send, but didn't get a response for 3 days.
In the end, she told me that she committed the plants to someone else instead and so the trade was off.

I'm very disappointed with her communication and I thought it was not nice to trade a plant that was in discussion already. I would not try to trade with her again.

I am also surprised to see your negative feedback on my R$R .
The trade did not go through because you were not sure if my bay leaf is edible, so I was no longer interested in continue trading with you because of your suspicion. We have never come to any agreement in that trade. If any negative feedback should be posted at all, I feel you should be the one who justly deserve a negative comment.
I still saved some of your emails to me if you want to review them.

Joy and I arranged a trade
A few emails later, a deal was made.
She sent me hers, and I sent her mine.
I'd trade with her again anytime.
:-)

I recently traded with Joy and was pleased with the exchange. All the seeds were labeled with the kind of seed and the date of harvest. Not only did she send me the seeds we agreed upon, but she sent me a couple of bonus packs as well. One of the bonus packs contained seed I had just been shopping for online so she must be psychic as well...
Nice trade. I would trade with her again.

Joy gets it done! 5 days from first conversation about trading I received the seeds across country -- very fast, good communication via email. Joy was generous with all agreed trades and sent two nice extras I really enjoyed. She packaged everything nicely in foil pack tea envelopes (great idea to reuse this way) and the compact bubble wrap was a very cost efficient way to send safely (I'll copy that in the future too).

Wonderful trade -- wonderful trader. This is the first trade I received, so the positive experience was much appreciated.

I had a great trade with Joy (fluffybonbon). She sent me many kinds of seeds and fresh healthy cuttings, and some already have root.
Thanks for a great trade. I would trade with her any time.

Love to trade with Joy. She is always so willing and happy to make a trade and sends great seeds. Highly recommend her!

Joy and I traded recently and it was speedy and the live plants came in great shape and are ready to just plant. I would recommend seed or plant trades with her and hope she would recommend me too. Trudy
