What’s a seed bank that won’t rob me?

I totally get why you are not happy but you are way too worked up or worried about it. Just because you didn't get your seeds from one place you act like every place is a scam. I've never had a problem getting seeds and I've ordered from like 20 different banks big and small. Just try another one that people have listed on here, many of them I have ordered from with no problem. Personally I'd stay away from OES or GLO though. Neither rip you off or steal your money but GLO takes forever and never responded to any of my emails when I didn't get instructions for payment and OES is greedy (trying to charge $300-500 for the newest Thug Pug drop when most charged $80-160).

You can drive to another state if you want, but it's a big waste of money and they'll have a smaller selection than an online bank would carry. It would be better to just try another bank that has a good rep and if you are too worried buy from a bank that accepts a card . If the seeds don't show up then file a dispute with the card company.

You live in a legal state? Can anyone just walk into a store there? If so I’ll take a trip. Traveling a day or two and getting something straight in my hand sounds better than throwing money out the window and praying the wind blows something my way.
Oregon state you just have to be over 21. Out of state doesn't matter so I assume other legal states the same.

Kind of stupid for states to keep it illegal when people can just drive to the next state over. 'Merica philosophy

These 5 beans are fem photos from Uptown Growlab 4 weeks from seed. The two at the back are GSC and Am Haze. The three at the front are Northern Lights. The cost was $99 for 15 seeds and 5 freebies. So far they are vigorous growers. A few months back I grew ILGM White Widow. I wasn't impressed at all. The RQS Am Haze that grew next to it was outstanding. 5 out of 5 UTGL seeds sprouted. So far I'm impressed with their growth but we'll see how they turn out.

Idk how anyone can justify a company not proving they shipped you anything at all and then never getting anything but they’re doing the right thing? Make it make sense? Cuz in the real world it’s called ripping people off.
If they sent it, you will get it. It will take a couple months, as others have suggested. Same thing happened to me. I thought customs got it. They are a seed company, illegal in most countries and persecuted by governments, they don't keep records for their safety and the safety of their customers. If you want tracked packaging, use a seed bank company that supplies Nirvana seeds and uses package tracking.

You did get ripped off, in a sense, but I don't think it was intentional and especially not the intent of Nirvana. They have been doing great business for years. I would bet on customs seizing it, they will notify you, or the mail being bogged down from the collapse before I would intentional theft.

Do you have any options other than ordering seeds? Like clones from trustworthy growers? Roll with the punches my friend.

I have plenty of tried and true strains. I just want to switch it up. Never got from a “breeder” this was my first time giving it a shot. I’m gonna give another source a shot and I have a good feeling about it. I’m not totally discouraged. Definitely only ordering within the us from now on

I don’t think that’s something I could get used to. Back before I did time I had hundreds of pounds shipped through the mail. Never lost a package. And we were just low level regular guys from the streets. These are supposed to professionals that have it figured out. Idk I see how foolproof their system is to get over. They might not have needed to before but now? Who knows. I once had a plug run off on me because someone ran off on him and he needed to get his own plug back. If they are in a fucked up spot who knows what they’ll do. If no ones getting seeds they ordered from them for atleast 6 months that says they are not in the position they were in 6 months ago.
Let me get this right " before you did time , you had 100's of pounds shipped through the mail".

So how come you were not growing, or had any local plugs. 100's of pounds coming in.

Lets say you even had "100" pounds come in a year. Moved @ 2000 pound each.
200k .
How is it that you are griping about a little change? Something isn't adding up, it's one thing to say hey this happened to me, but to make a thread for this one bank.
Wow.

And dude stop this, you were not moving 100's of pounds, people only moving nickle bags and Oz's would complain at such a simple loss, reallly :roll: :clap: o_O

You’ve never lost almost a decade and got caught. I don’t need to explain it to you. I did my time and lost more than you could probably understand. A lot changes when your stuck in a cage. I can’t afford loses anymore. I grow for myself to keep myself out of those circles. Again probably something you wouldn’t understand.

A lot of industries got rocked by corona, I couldn't even get to trim jobs the lock downs where so bad here. A lot of clients shut down their grows because they couldn't get to them without a big risk. Just now recovering.

Best of luck to you, your past doesn't matter to me, and it seems completely feasible to move 100lb through the mail over time. Don't get hung up on a loss and keep adapting.

Not cool to call someone out just because it doesn't make sense to you. Jails are full of people who did something stupid in a moment of desperation.
 
Pretty much just got robbed by nirvana. Been waiting over 2 months and they told me yesterday that “just this once”they’ll Send a replace. Now they won’t respond to me at all so I’m taking as they robbed me. They won’t refund me and they obviously haven’t sent out anything and can’t prove that did. So what’s a seed bank that won’t rob me and will get here quick now that I’m months behind.
Seedsman or barney seed very reliable plus free seeds pending on how much money you spend.

When it come's to this cannabis game, I might have a deeper understanding. In my younger days, I may have crossed a boarder or two.

My point is that it's a small loss on the grand scheme of all things. Mail has been messed up and might even gotten lost.

I also have a business degree (not that this matters,) but cutting the fat, and small losses happen.

Also there is this here

A business degree tells you 100 ps is a lot? I could get two a week and that’s over a 100 in a year. Plus the fact that it was all before my bid. Could have moved a million and it wouldn’t matter when they Catch you and take it all. And yeah I know border crossers. In fact I know one doing 18 years right now for crossing and getting caught so I don’t think you understand much unless you’ve been there. Your point was to try to bring up something that had nothing to do with my post or to assassinate my character. But I’m also touchy when it comes to the time. Max’s will change your life let me tell you so I can’t blame you for that. I’ll check these other sites out and was lucky enough to have some good people from the community look out and send some place my way. I appreciate all the sound advice.

I wouldn't support the real Canada seeds anymore. He supports mass medical strains who is a fraud and thief. The community shouldn't support people like that and hence he doesn't get my support anymore and I encourage everyone with ethics and morals to do the same.
