OK, I will be the first to admit that I am no mushroom expert, I don't normally keep them. BUT... I came across one that I liked on a recent sale. It was listed as a Moonfire Bounce. I did some research and price checking and it seemed like a decent deal, so I went for it.
Well, I am pretty sure that what I received, is not what I bought. Is it even a Moonfire Bounce? There are several color differences that I can note (no striping, orange ring around the edge), and it's not even on the same size plug! I'm wondering if I'm being ridiculous? When I purchase a coral, I expect to receive the exact one in the photo (unless otherwise noted), not one that is somewhat similar. Please pardon the super blue picture, I was trying to get some kind of color to show. It looks overall pretty much green in person.
The vendor has not been very responsive, so before I get really angry... what do you guys think?

Maybe the same type, but not a WYSIWYG..I noticed recently. I belive this company on Ebay no longer have corals that are WYSIWYG. Look at description at the bottom of the page..I received mushrooms from them that wernt even close to what I paid for..On thier web site.
