glad to hear ya eventually got what ya paid for. although if i were you id discontinue using that company and find a new seed bank. shit seems HELLA unprofessional(maili ng to same address) for what they are dealing with. also glad to hear these customs letters dont really have much follow up.

been growing with clones from stock started from WILLIAMS WONDER seeds started in 1988. i order them from Sacred Seeds. need fresh stock. i am having trouble finding a reliable supplier who will ship to US. Any suggestions? thinking about flying to Canada and mailing them back.

So everyone nervous about ordering from US chillout and order away! smart not to order to grow address anyway! gotta go more important info from me will be coming soon!

It's not "low priority." It's a matter of them being able to prosecute you for it. When you order illegal drugs from international sources and they catch you nothing happens. They send you a seizure letter that says they confiscated it and for you to sign for it blah blah blah.....throw it away and nothing happens. They can't prove you ordered it. Usually, guys will re-ship the goods if you send them the seizure letter.

I had a similar experience after purchasing a couple auction items from Seedbay.com. Since I'm a relative newcomer to growing, this scared me and has made me somewhat distrustful of purchases through the mail. Has anyone else had problems of the sort purchasing seeds through Seedbay? Am I a marked man now?

Thanks!
