potentially iffy topic? seedbanks and the US + govt shutdown affecting imports

[Emgee]

greetings fellow enthusiasts. I love cannabis. I love it as much as the next guy and more than the guy next to him.

As an enthusiast, I love preserving the genetics of different strains... I also love playing God and breeding super-strains. this is a personal thing and not for profit.... if the world ends you have me to thank. my super strains are for my personal ailments... I will release them in say 2-3 years... once my medical facility is more on its feet.. (starting dispensaries is hard.. but someone has to do it... weve gotta keep this medicinal relief available to those who need it and trust me, when someone who really needs it cant get it and wants it.. it hurts you in the heart)

I dont exactly know whats up with this government shut-down thing... nor do i intend to look further into it than necessary but... an associate of mine IS NOT RECEIVING his seeds from attitude seedbank.... they have re-shipped and at this point even refunded, I believe, after 2 orders which they sent were confiscated.

I love attitude seed bank, but... my associate has had his seeds confiscated twice in a row... Fact of the matter is that its not fair to give someone something that you dont even know what it is... and even though that is not my personal problem now.. it could be other peoples problem and thats not cool... man.

I want to order seeds... I am in CA and legal on many fronts... so.. what seedbanks have you worked with? how was their service? etc.. any and all info on seedbanks THAT WORK WITH THE US... I can find seedbanks all day for amsterdam... but they are golden in their UK thrones. this is murica were talking about.

If any of you are in CA and have great genetics then lets do a trade sometime..... but in the meantime.. id like to know of some good seedbanks youve worked with in the recent past... along with anything that happened during shipping... IE confiscation/letters/not-received packaged

Thanks and keep smiling

I paid for 6pk with 2 freebies from attitude seeds on 11/10 around midnight. 11/11 they shipped them out. I received them 11/16 at my door. Its hit or miss apparently cause worked great for me... from what i read before they came in is they all go to same building when entering the country so its possible they know what theyre looking for in packages.

thanks, that is one theory I have as well... Im hoping my associate isnt on a watch list or something... frequent online horticulture purchases etc etc.

Ive ordered from attitude before with no probs but i need to make sure that im going to get my order before ordering...

Im glad you got your seeds, i really like attitude!

There is no way to make sure you are going to get your package before ordering. You are importing illegal items. It is a gamble you have to be willing to take. The best you can do is get the guarantee so they can resend your package. Your being legal has nothing to do with anything, as any seeds, not just cannabis are illegal to import into the United
states. Not sure how you think the Govt. shutdown has anything to do with this, as the increased interceptions started this spring. And it is not just Attitude, it is all seedbanks. As far as what banks to use, there are all kinds of posts about what banks are good.
The ones I use:
Attitude
Herbie's
Sea of Seeds
Ali Bongo
Never had an order snagged.
