Hey all,

Does anyone of you have experience with online Bonsai shops?

If you do, please create a new topic with the title: "Shop-name review", this will help other people trying to figure out where to order!

Thanks
Oscar

I have not ordered anything online. The few online shops that I have checked out I find the shipping fees double the price of the merchandise. But then it takes me 1/3 of a tank of gas to drive to the nearest shop...six of one and half a dozen of the other. :pinch:

It seems nobody here orders online? I was hoping to get some feedback :)

For those who did order online; please open a new topic with the name of the shop + review.

:( All the online shops I have been looking at, it costs about $25+ for shipping. So unless you are going to buy a $50+ tree, it wouldn't be worth it.

:lol: don't get me wrong - they have some gorgeous trees. I just ain't ready to spend that much right now.

Maybe next year, I wanna get a 4 year old cherry brush. :side:

Once you get one tree, it's all over.
Have fun...

My Mom wants to create a Chinese Garden type area in the front yard. It will be a slow process, but it is something we can work on and enjoy together. :)

I am excited and anxious to get started ... :woohoo:
