I had my beans nabbed by customs in LA at the begining of my grow. I went through Seedsman and I talked to the folks there at length and they did re ship my order and I got them no problem. What they do and it is pretty smart is that they ship them in what is considered freight mail. So like big pallets of CD's, Computers, car parts and other misculanous stuff. They send it this way because there is much less scrutiny on these types of packages. The only thing is that you cannot track it(which is actually a good thing) the folks at Seedsman were saying that with tracked packages from the UK and Amserdam that are one single piece of mail has a much higher likelyhood of getting looked at than a "CD" case in a big pallet of stuff that doesnt have a single tracking sticker on it. Sure enough it got to me in the same amount of time as the letter from Customs. So if you have the option to use AirMail(that is the UK's mail system like fedex) from Royal Mail. The girl said that they have a 99% sucsess rate when shipping that way. Hope this helps!

I still have not even got a letter from my order from herbies. But Its been well over a month so I know they are gone. Its madding especially when the only place you have to mail them is where they may or may not be grown.

I just want to point out, right now is not the time to expect prompt shipping.
Most "overnight" shipping is not guaranteed for delivery until 3 days out, until after christmas.
Regular mail is really backlogged.

US mail is a big problem. Weekly receive others mail and at times packages. Incredible how sloppy they are these days.

My Attitude seeds normally come within les than a week.

For some reason new order was held up for a week in LA. And of all things--package going wrong way. Just received notice of it having been shipped to New M.

There are a few US based seed companies. Low keyed mostly from medical states. Carry only top genetics (medical) so nothing real sexy and few autos. But there are sources for autos--just look around Organic you should be able to get some on the cheap.

Cheers

Guys, this time of year, the mail is all wonky, so they redirect stuff to make way for priority mail, which is what everyone is shipping this time of year. Be patient!

 

[GCase]

Thanks briman. In my case--bet the flooding forced redirection of mail. Guess they have to keep it moving.

Ive got some family members that work for the postal service. This year is the worst theyve seen in years. They are real backed up and doing 60 hour weeks (atleast where I live in florida). Expect delays hehe.

Not to mention the USPS is like bankrupt or something lol, and they keep letting people go, and closing offices, and raising prices, and it's still all jacked up lol. I don't know how we let our mail system collapse like this, but it is...

I ordered a couple months ago from attitude and my order was seized as well. After doing some searching apparently Chicago has stepped up their game (and learned the packaging for attitude) and now they are seizing them. Your seeds are gone you prob wont get anything. Unless you bought the guaranteed shipping (they will keep sending them until you get them) you are screwed. They will give you some of the seeds you lost on a new order only if you buy something else.

I'm done ordering over sea's. I stick to canada now.

Customs will go through your Canadan mail too. But I hope it they will ship it to you. I asked a seedbank if shipping was guaranteed they told me they ship to the U.S. but it's on me and there was no option for guaranteed shipping so I got mine from The Attitude it took about 30 days total with guaranteed shipping before it took about 9 days from the day I ordered to get to my house the first time. The Attitude shipped they quickly but the customs people took there sweet ass time.
