So, I had heard good things about these guys from a couple friends. After poking around on the internet I saw that they might have had some customer service issues a couple years ago. Figured that if my friends had recent success with them that I would give it a go as the options for shipping to the US are limited. Love their site and selection, but so far I am a bit annoyed with how long it takes them to process a payment. I paid on January 17th, which was a Saturday. I didn't expect them to do anything that day, or the next. I paid with moneygram, instant transfer. 6% discount was offered for moneygram payments. So I was all for it. I figured it would be faster than sending cash. So far it hasn't been. :/

They said in the email they sent on Monday, the 19th, that they would have someone go attempt collection within the next couple of days. Their website said 2-3 business days. I was cool with that. Apparently they went to attempt collection on the 21rst, last Wednesday. They replied with an email asking me to check my moneygram reference number, as it was not accepted by moneygram. I had copied and pasted the number directly from my receipt on the moneygram web site. I double checked the email to verify that I had sent the correct number, and I had. So I replied with a screenshot (minus all personal details) of the date, name, amount of money, and reference number from moneygram. I told them that this is the number I was given and if moneygram still had issues with it I would get in contact with them. So far they haven't went and checked again, if they have no one has notified me. The payment still says available, so no one has picked it up.

I realize that they probably don't run to moneygram every day, but I would think if a customer had placed an order 10 days ago it would be prudent to check frequently if there was a problem. On my end the money is there..so it will be 11 days since ordering today and my seeds haven't even shipped yet. Today is a Wednesday, which is what day they checked last week. I'm hopeful. Not writing them off by any means, just annoyed.

Has anyone here had any experience with these guys?

I had the same experience a couple months ago with a similar company. Took 28 days from order to delivery, they said it would be around 7 days. Made another order with herbies and it was at my door in 2 days. Cant recommend them enough

Who is this Gorilla Seeds??? They are penetrating my FB Acc. since weeks with their like invites. For me i only use Seedshops thats thrusted and known for years n Years of good Buisness Only a Handfull of them out there

Well I went with them because I have people that I personally know who have used them and done well. Originally I was going to go with Nirvana but one of the strains I really wanted to try wasn't available there. I just emailed them and asked what was going on. Here's hoping I get a helpful response.

Update:
So after getting no where with these guys, I just cancelled my payment and will be taking my business elsewhere. Two weeks wasted. :/ I emailed them on Wednesday to ask when payment would be collected, stating that it had been 12 days since I ordered and had no communication from them in a week. It took them until this morning to reply. And they didn't even answer any of my questions. They simply sent the same email they did the first time with no explanations or acknowledgement that I had said anything. I would personally not recommend this company. At least if you're going to pay with moneygram and expect any kind of customer service. The people I know that were successful paid with cash and had no issues. But they seem sort of dodgy to me all around.

I'm going to go with my original plan, and get the Blue Mystic from Nirvana. Will definitely check out Herbie's for my next order as they have a nice variety and according to the members here, they are reliable.

Bummed out though. Oh well! here's to a redo!

Herbies have a good reputation for mail order. I used them once. No problems at all.

eP.

I have read some pretty bad report about Gorilla seeds and bad customer care.

I think they are the same people as Rhino seeds.

I have never bought any seeds from them, so I can't say if the rumors are true.

Like ep say Herbies won't disapoint, the same goes for Seedsman, I have also had good service from Just Feminized, Pick and Mix & The Attitude.

I have also ordered direct from dutch Passion with no probelms.

So I decided I really wanted to stick with trying the Dark Devil seeds and ended up getting them from Herbie's...payment has already been received and processed and it's been less than a day. As long as they get here alright I don't see any reason to buy anywhere else!
