So I watched this affair from afar - no doubt I have missed a bunch of detail through the process and am a little ignorant, due to the complex nature of the issue(s) at hand. Would someone mind - please - summarising what's gone wrong here?
As I see it:
1) Bloke goes out on a limb and creates the Bulk Buy
2) No-one really understands the quality of the product
3) Bloke disclaims (2) through the course of the transaction
4) Hops get delivered and the quality isn't the same as 'normal' hops ~$90 per kg
5) Folks are pissed off
Fill me in, 'cause as it sits and I see it, no-one knew how the hops would be, and folks took a punt on the quality. I've organised a couple of bulk buys in the past and it's a bit painful sometimes - ie.. people using different scales and getting 11kg of grain instead of 12.5kg etc.
But in this instance, people walked into the transaction 'buyer aware'. So what's the problem? Again, genuine question, I am ignorant, can someone enlighten me?
Cheers -Mike
