GrowJoy sent 40 evergreen trees that had turned black before arrival. The trees were supposed to arrive in early April based on our zone. They were received on May 5th. I contacted them immediately and it took them 60 days to get back to me. They first claimed they were shipped with too much water. Then said I had not watered them enough even though I have 300 dollar plus water bills. They charged me over 700.00 for dead trees and have done nothing. I turned it in to Pay Pal. They could not respond to me for 60 days but they sure responded to the dispute. They will come on here and apologize. They will send a response stating that COVID was an issue and they will take care of you. but they will do absolutely nothing but steal your money. RJ, I just contacted the FBI and TBI as you suggested. Hopefully, if enough people contact they will investigate their company. I tried and tried to discuss this with the owner. He refused to call me back and offered a refund of 9 trees which doesn't even come close to covering my damages. They act like good wholesome people but have been nothing but crooks with me. Ashley is a liar. I would not deal with her. Her boss Joe seemed reasonable at first, but once she got involved they lost all sense of reality. Please buy somewhere else.

Hello Joe, I am truly sorry for all the issues you are experiencing with these plants. As we have stated in our correspondence, we are truly sorry that some of your plants arrived in rough shape. The initial pictures that you had sent upon arrival only showed 7 or 8 Thujas arrived in rough shape, the rest looked perfect. We refunded 8 Thujas back to you immediately. Later on, you sent in more pictures of the Thujas that were not looking good after you had been growing them. Unfortunately we do not guarantee how you care for your plants and thus are unable to simple refund. We did however offered you a full refund if you would return all the plants back to us. The plants were not returned so we could not issue a full refund back. We sell many of these plants every year and have NEVER had one issue like this, so we are confident that this is not a “plant” problem but a growing issue. Sincerely, Ashley Reece
