I'm not selling anything, I'm just trying to figure out what this is. It seems too good to be true. I found this website that appears to be selling Kremp figs. The prices on everything is $8.75, from VdB and Hardy Chicago to Sicilian33 and Green Goblin. It's all $8.75 on sale. It gives you the option of selecting rooted cutting or non-rooted cutting, but if I select non-rooted cutting it puts rooted cutting into the cart. I think you are just reserving a rooted cutting to be shipped in the spring and at that time you pay the rest of the price of whatever that variety is. But it doesn't say that anywhere, it's just that I remember Kremp doing something like that before. I'm just posting because maybe someone knows what is going on here. I guess I could email them but I have a feeling Kremp would say "no you are not getting Green Goblin for $8"

Please know that this website has absolutely NOTHING to do with the real Kremp! If you notice, only the listing mentions Kremp. The web address is “precisionpartsstore”. I have seen these type of websites before, they just copy product listings from the internet and put identical, lower prices on them. It is a scam! Do not give them your money! Also, please don’t let them taint your view of Kremp. Kremp Florist sells real fig cuttings that many figgers find to be a great value and of good quality. Just wanted to clear this up!

Good catch. I just scanned the address and seen it said Kremp. Didn’t pay too much attention.
 
Also, the real Kremp did introduce a down payment offer allowing people to pre-pay for rooted cuttings in spring of ‘26. That way you could secure coveted varieties that always sell out quickly by placing a deposit. It was not recieved very well by the community as far as I can tell. Most People didn’t like the idea of paying for something that didn’t exist yet.
 
I emailed Chad at Kremp and asked him about this website. Being Thanksgiving, I don't expect a reply very soon, and one time before when I emailed him, it took a week before he replied because he was away from the office for a while. The website probably is a scam but atleast my email will let Kremp know about it, if they don't already.

Make sure to pay with PayPal, so you might be able to get your money back if it turns out to be a scam (which it very likely is...)...
 
The conclusion to this is that the website in the original post is a scam. Kremp Florist is concerned and recommends not buying anything from them. I think that this scam website should in no way reflect on Kremp. Kremp Florist is a reputable business that I have had very good experiences with, and I plan to buy fig cuttings from in the future.
 
I tried to go to the website, my computer blocked the website and said the website is fake. I quickly removed the information before a malware goes into my computer.
