By placing an order for a product designated as bank transfer only, the purchaser acknowledges and agrees to this payment requirement. Orders submitted using an unauthorized payment method may be canceled and refunded. Where permitted by applicable law, a 10% cancellation fee may be deducted from the refund for an order submitted using an unauthorized payment method.
Prime Fungi LLC reserves the right not to fulfill any order that does not comply with the payment requirements stated in the applicable product listing.

Product images are provided for general representation only. The appearance of the product received may vary and is not intended to reflect the exact appearance, color, size, density, morphology, or other physical characteristics of the specific product purchased.
Product Use & Responsibility
All products are sold for lawful use only. Prime Fungi LLC will not be held responsible for misuse, improper handling, storage, cultivation, propagation, or application of its products. The buyer assumes all risks and liabilities associated with their use.
Prime Fungi LLC shall not be liable for losses, damages, or other consequences arising from contamination, viability issues, genetic variation, identification discrepancies, or other characteristics of biological materials, including instances in which a culture may differ from its listed identification or expected characteristics.
Species Identification & Responsibility
Fungal cultures are biological materials and natural variation may occur. While Prime Fungi LLC makes reasonable efforts to correctly identify and label all cultures, no guarantee is made regarding species identification, performance, yield, or suitability for any specific cultivation method.
Purchasers are responsible for conducting proper identification and evaluating cultivation feasibility before attempting cultivation or expansion. Prime Fungi LLC shall not be liable for crop failure, loss of yield, contamination, identification discrepancies, or any economic losses resulting from the use of our cultures. By purchasing and using these cultures, the buyer accepts full responsibility for any outcomes associated with cultivation or propagation.
Biological Material Disclaimer
Fungal cultures are living biological materials. Viability, growth characteristics, and performance may vary depending on storage, handling, environmental conditions, and cultivation practices. Prime Fungi LLC does not guarantee growth success or fruiting results.
Glass Tube Master Slants
In the rare event that a Glass Tube Master Slant arrives non viable, the purchaser must contact Prime Fungi LLC by email within twenty (20) days of confirmed delivery. Claims submitted after this period will not be considered.
Prime Fungi LLC reserves the right to determine eligibility for any replacement. If a replacement is approved, a service fee of ten dollars ($10.00) per slant, plus applicable shipping charges, will apply.
Genetic Stability
Fungal cultures may change over time through subculturing, environmental conditions, or natural genetic variation. Characteristics such as growth rate, morphology, fruiting behavior, color, or other traits may vary after transfer or propagation. Prime Fungi LLC does not guarantee genetic stability or that cultures will maintain the same characteristics after expansion or repeated transfers.
Returns
All sales are final. Products are not returnable or exchangeable. Except where otherwise expressly stated in these Terms and Conditions or required by applicable law, purchases are non refundable.

Prime Fungi LLC may also restrict or suspend future purchases from any customer account or shipping address for a period of time if purchasing activity suggests potential resale, redistribution, or other activity inconsistent with these terms.
Right to Refuse Service
Prime Fungi LLC reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order at its sole discretion, subject to applicable law.
Safety Notice
Not all cultures produce edible mushrooms. Certain species are toxic or otherwise unsafe for consumption, and some individuals may experience sensitivities or allergic reactions. It is the purchaser's responsibility to research the safety of each species.
A sterile needle may be included with your culture, intended only for transferring the culture to a suitable substrate such as sterilized grain, sawdust, peat, or coco coir. Handle with care, and never ingest or inject any culture.
