Lize,
Hello! It doesn't appear that you placed an order with us to receive actual experience buying from our shop. We price our plants based off of our cost and most, if not all of our prices are very fair. As for the plant in the photo it is likely not the one you will receive when ordering. We typically take photos of the plants with the lowest variegation, most cosmetic damage or smallest of the batch so that our customers aren't disappointed when receiving their plant. You are more than welcome to request a photo of the plants you have ordered before having them shipped to you. Thanks for voicing your concern (:
