State Restrictions on Spore Sales
At The Mushroom Spore Depot, we operate in compliance with spores and state laws and regulations. Due to specific legal restrictions, we are unable to sell or ship certain spore products to residents in the following states: California (CA), Idaho (ID), and Georgia (GA). Here’s what you need to know:
Spores and State Laws
- Why These Restrictions Exist
Laws in California, Idaho, and Georgia prohibit the sale, possession, or distribution of certain mushroom spores, even for research or microscopy purposes. These regulations are in place due to concerns about potential misuse or cultivation. To comply with these state laws, we do not process or ship spore orders to addresses within these states. - Order Refusal or Refund Policy
If an order containing restricted spores is placed with a shipping address in California, Idaho, or Georgia, we will not be able to fulfill the order. Instead, the order will be refused or refunded in full. Customers will be notified via email if their order has been canceled due to these restrictions. If you mistakenly place an order to one of these states, rest assured that you will not be charged, or the amount will be refunded promptly. - Ensuring Compliance
We take these restrictions seriously and carefully review all orders to ensure they comply with both federal and state regulations. This helps us maintain a responsible business practice and avoid any legal complications for both our customers and our company. - For Customers in Restricted States
If you reside in CA, ID, or GA, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the specific laws in your state regarding the purchase of spores. While we cannot sell or ship to your location, we appreciate your understanding and are always available to answer any questions you might have regarding our policies or legal compliance. - Staying Informed
As laws and regulations regarding spores can change, we stay updated on any legal developments in these states. If regulations change, we will adjust our policies accordingly and keep our customers informed. For now, we advise residents of California, Idaho, and Georgia to avoid placing orders for restricted items to prevent any delays or issues with processing.
