No Grace No Mercy

Updated review

I googled Moringa and saw it available so I ordered it. They charged $8.00 Shipping for 1lb bag. I saw they also had Alfalfa leaf after my order was completed. I emailed them then waited over the weekend having asked them to add to my order and I'd pay the difference. They refused to add the alfalfa to my order. I placed a second order and they charged me $12.99 shipping for the 1lb alfalfa bag that would have fit easily in the $8.00 box. You tell me if you'd like this experience?

Good prices on organic products, that are processed properly. Some people don't realize this is extremely important. If you don't process the herbs properly, you get the product and it is brown and ugly. It has no medicinal property. This product looked beautiful. It retained its original color. I am very impressed with the product and price. Thank you so much.
