Seed Bank Attitude Seedbank order seized by customs.

Hey everyone, just a quick reminder (as it was just brought to our attention through a Reported Post;) it may not be the best idea to post which stealth methods you are using when choosing your shipping. This is an open, international forum and anyone can read these public posts (that includes LEO, customs agents, or those super-angry postal workers that some of you seem to think are jacking/smashing your beans from time to time.)

Describing what methods you are using and the description on your packages isn't doing any favors to the people trying to send them to you. Please use discretion when describing your shipping methods!

Thanks (and be safe!) :karma Cloud:
the government can learn what stealth methods are being used by simply placing an order with one of these companies. true stealth should be indistinguishable from other packages.

The hard line is that we've had several Reported Posts (RP's) on members sharing details in this thread. While some of you are okay with it; when we get RP's; it's time to take a look and make a decision. In the past we've leaned towards discretion and not sharing that information (and the RP's help confirm that decision.)

While I don't disagree with you that the government could place an order themselves; I would argue there's a big difference between having an entity spend the time and resources trying to get to Point A, versus someone handing them a forum post with all of the information listed and all the work done for them to get to the same conclusion.

Please do not share or disclose your stealth info or packaging info (for the benefit of your fellow forum members that do not want the information shared.)

Thank you!
 
The old saying loose lips sink ships sure comes into play here

I completely agree with you.we should not give them any help but do need to remain vigilant and suppliers need to conceal shipments as well as possible. the fact that several people almost threw out their nirvana shipments shows that this company is doing a good job.shipments should look like "junk mail" and suppliers need to stay on top of their game
 
never talk about fight club!!! yall crazy!
 
I keep new breeders that pop up in this and one other forum I am part of sort of in the back of my mind and watch what they are doing for later reference.
I am very skeptical of most of them.
To be honest, I think 90% of them are total BS'ers just trying to make a quick easy buck.

Mitch has been one of the most upfront that I have observed.
I like supporting people like that and it is good to see on our forum.
I look forward to growing some of his gear in the future.

Agreed. It's rather shocking how few steps some people take and how many "level-up" aka "learning experiences" are sometimes skipped by people eager to bring seeds to market when the genetics are nothing special or worked. I simply cannot consider it breeding unless large numbers are grown for several cycles before being selected, crossed, tested then released. But hey, some people seem to get away with "breeding" the best of a five pack with the first male they get from another pack. These companies won't last long, however.

On on the other hand, there are also many new growers who are eager to try different genetics with less investment and I can't hold that against anyone, and neither will i pollen Chuck for sale, so really the people buying cheap genetics are getting what they pay for. Not that poorly selected breeds always produce poorly performing plants, Some people know this I suppose and would rather gamble on their seed order than select from a group of top teir plants.

buy bomb genetics, have the bomb. Buy scrap genetics, search through the scrap for a gem if you can find it.

On to seed bank talk:
Are you folks more stoned than me? Lol shhhhhh! I've had a lot of orders from the tude nabbed recently. Really though people, I know it's already been said but please please don't say a thing about your order besides that it happened and came or not. The rest of us placing orders can infer the details. If someone wants to know stealth shipping techniques they should order some beans with stealth shipping and put in the order notes that you need super stealth. If you can't find the beans keep everything and email them. I threw out my first stealth order. Right in the trash and I knew I was doing it. Great customer service on their end.
Herbies has only been nabbed once. Alibongo never. I order from all three frequently. All replace lost orders with proper provided evidence. BC Bud Depot recently as well, though that took a bit more FIRM legwork... I suppose writing and posting that fulfills part of my "promise" to them that inclined them to get my seeds re-shipped fast hahaha
 
I had my first order ever with attitude seized in Chicago. I contacted them after the waiting period (which is a LONG one) and they re-shipped through regular mail and the seeds arrived in seven business days or so. Although the stealth shipping option is pricey it is worth it because Attitude WILL ship again if they don't arrive.
