New Grower Shipment From Attitude Busted By Customs

[tallone]

I got my package today from Attitude minus my seeds. Green tape from Customs sealed it up. I will be contacting Attitude about reshipping my order using another method of shipment. now days probably most all packages from overseas are inspected. Anybody have a seed bank they have used recently and got their seeds with no problem? I would like some suggestions from some of you more experienced growers. I used Attitude before with no problem several years ago, guess things have changed.

RCMC is a great place to get seeds.

Im on the east coast and just used herbies. I got my seeds (barneys farms critical kush and pinapple chunk with a bunch of freebies) no problem, using their "super stealth" option within 7 days of placing my order. Top notch =)

tallone, sorry about your loss; but your chances of getting a package inspected by customs is no more or less by using any other seed bank if it still has to go through customs. If you are in the states, there are some members that have reported packages from Attitude getting inspected at the Chicago sorting facility, but it's very intermittent and there are an equal amount (if not more) packages from Attitude that still do arrive to their recipients in the states. So don't be discouraged; Attitude is still a great, reputable seed bank and I hope you don't let this mishap sway you away from them for good (although no one would blame you for being cautious and leery.) I've had 7 out of 7 successful Attitude orders in the past year and a half make it to my door (knock on wood haha!) I just received two pretty big orders in original breeder packs (and a T-SHIRT.) Seriously; half my lazy time wardrobe has been through stealth shipping!

I've heard great things about RCMC and that Herbie's as well, so at least you have some other options; but you run the same risk of having a package inspected. There is such an incredible amount of mail that goes through these sorting facilities; it doesn't seem remotely feasible or logical that someone would be sitting there cherry picking envelope sized packages outside of the procedural amount they are required to inspect daily (or things that appear suspicious.) That's just my opinion though; do what feels safe and good to you brother! :stylez rasta smoke:

I've been using Attitude with no problems at all lately. I suspect that this type of thing just happens sometimes. I also have wondered since I am in a medical state (and I am legally authorized to grow cannabis) if my shipment has more of a chance of making it to me, don't know if the stealth shipping method matters, in the last several months I have received seed orders with the T-shirt, the coffee mug, and a wallet and got them all no problem. I also have an order on the way from the Attitude right now, picked the T-shirt again. I really am not sure of the legalities, does anyone know if you are a caregiver in a med state if it then becomes legal for them to ship seeds to you? Sorry about your temporary setback, but the Attitude has been great to deal with for us, and I'm confident they'll make sure you get what's coming to you.

Thanks for the replies, I'm just kinda bummed at the moment. All ready to grow with no seeds. I will let everyone know how things with Attitude go once I contact them and ask for a reshipment.

Tallon what place did you order come into the country, was it Chicago?

Yes keep us posted. Both my attitude orders this year have made it to me, didn't use stealth shipping though.

I checked the package for any identifying postal marks and couldn't find any, I also tried using the postal tracking number and nothing showed up so I don't really know where the package went through Customs.

That totally sucks, you have my sympathy man.
I am sorry to have to ask such a dumb question but cant you buy seeds in America, rather than having to buy from overseas ?
