            I had to drop a class regarding my college degree and need to return the lab kit I had to buy for that class. I haven't even opened the package because I ended up having to drop the class before the package even got here. They refuse to give me a refund and let me return it despite it being completely unopened and untouched in the box. They keep trying to shove me off to my college when my college doesn't supply me with this kit, Carolina does.

            I order from these people often and seem to always have some kind of issue with shipping or organisms showing up dead. I ordered something to be shipped out a few days from now and they are telling me I cannot add anything to my order because it was purchased online with a credit card. (it was not credit it was debit, but they insist its the same thing) How else do you purchased things? Shipping is disgustingly expensive and the fact they expect me to pay another 20 dollars for shipping when they could simply add it to the order is very unprofessional. Not gonna be ordering for a while.
