I hope you didn't order from Russell Apiaries. If you did, I hope it wasn't much.

  Many, if not all ,  the Russell sub-producers had their own legitimate businesses before they were involved with Russell.
I have done business with a few of them before and after their Russell involvement.  They are trustworthy people and I will not hesitate to do business with them again!!!
  The person in New York can be found at his own website.  Allegany Mountain Bee Farm.
