True north seedbank beware!

Placed an order a couple weeks ago for DJ Short seeds from TNSB.
Picked therm up in person due to the reviews not being so good online.
Got the seeds and a bunch of freebies. They are all regular Seeds which is actually a good thing for us.

Here's the issue (And it is pending a resolution)...The DJ Short seeds had 10 in pack, 1 was crushed.and it split down the side.
The reply was, something along the lines, "Well the freebies should make up for it", and she also quickly offered another freebie to compensate...now that is bad, but I'll leave that issue for now. I'm currently waiting for "L" to talk to her "manager". Bottom line here is, ask for a picture (sure no sweat), and make offer for replacement, talk to whoever you have to to
get the replacement...OR...refund for the single seed, then deal with your supplier on your own.

I suspect on many of their products they order from other seed banks. Then ship when they come in? Just a guess since this order took a solid 2 weeks or more, to get. I suspect this to be the case, since
their DJ's in this case was far more expensive than anyone else that has DJ Short on their product list.

So no review as far as 1-10/10. I will see how this issue gets dealt with. "L" DID offer right away to compensate with some extra freebies, but this isn't what I am after (some freebies are great, but bottom line, I want what I order, so I declined initially. I'll accept later if that is all they can come up with.

They do offer pick up in person for those a little wary of sending payment, based on a number of their reviews not being so hot. You always here from the people with issues 10 fold more than the ones who are happy.

But, in this case, they did come through with the product.

They have a catalog of all their products as well, a full fledged Paperback book about 260 pages long.
They are in it for the long haul I'm sure is the intent.

Will follow up in next few days likely with result of issue.

A bit of research tells me that they are totally fake.. They have shit fir sale that I know to be "extinct". The previous poster probably works for them..
What specifically (just one example if you have the time, and even end up seeing this post) is "extinct" that you know of that they offer?
 
I placed an order from them. Got my beans 8 days later. Even had 2 extra freebies I wasn't expecting. Lemon skunk auto fem n bubba kush fem. I will be ordering from elsewhere next time now that I see this.

You Guys really scare the shit out of me Now. I ordered some seeds from them 3 weeks ago. Some White Sirius Autos, Kushy Kush and Bubba Kush. Haven't received the tracking # yet and I wrote them 5 days ago with no answers yet. I ordered from them 3 years ago. It tooks like 40 days and few phone calls before I got it. They told me the Cream Caramel I ordered were back ordered. They never wrote to tell me about it. It tooks time but I received my seeds + a bunch of freebies that were great seeds. I decided to give them another chance but Im starting to regret it again. You should see their catalog. They looks like having ALL strains. Its seems phishy now. I'll call them tomorrow. If I Dont get my 150$ order, I'll bitch about them everywhere. Its not ok to mess with people's money.

I got my package after 3 weeks. All seeds I've tried popped quickly but they sent me the wrong freebies. It was my mistake for not selecting them at checkout. I emailed and got no answer, so I called and was assured freebies were sent. Then after my call I got an email saying same thing. They sent the wrong ones but the jack herer is being flipped tomorrow. Maybe the WW too. US seed banks only for me from now on.

I had a crush seed from attitude. Sent em an email with a photo. Their response "we can replace it, just let us know on your next order, and reference your previous order so we get the right seed". And yea, they came through even though my next order was a few months later.
That was my first order in 2012, 4 years later I'm still a customer because of that service.

Got my seeds today. The wait had been too long. Ordering on March 2nd, received on March 29th. And I was supposed to get a bubba kush as a freebie but got an Original skunk #1 instead. So I believe you can trust True North Seeds but IT IS A STRESS EVERYTIME on WHEN you will receive your beans. For Canada I prefer Cropkingseeds. Not as much choice of seeds but the ones They have are of very good quality and the delivery is very fast.

I was supposed to get northern lights I got widow. They suck at giving the freebies their Web site states you get. I even emailed and called to make sure. Never again will I go thru them.

Yes I did but it tooks like 3 weeks. It looks like They dont have any seeds with them. You order some seeds, then They order the seeds directly from the seedbank, and only when They receive them, They will Ship it to you. Their worst part is the customer service. If the seeds are back order, They wont write to you about it. It will Just take longer. That sucks. I ordered 2 times and Both times it tooks about 1 month to receive it. From my opinion you better order seeds from Cropkingseeds. You receive your beans very quickly and seeds are very good quality. Try their Early Miss autos. Best smoke ever.

I wrote them about 2 weeks after. I was very polite and nice. Forget about your free gift. I was excited to get a bubba kush as I was supposed to but I got a skunk #1. Dont bother write them back. Good luck. I know how stressful it is to pay and wait wait and wait. They really suck at customer service. You write to them, wait 6 days to receive an answer that They will get back to you... once you receive your seeds. Hope it will be your last time
 
Just wanted to say that my order from true north was perfect. Got exactly what I ordered and within the given delivery time.
If your thinking of ordering from them pay no mind to the negative feedback.
P.S I didn't receive a tracking # but it made no difference
I also just ordered from them. Great service. They said my order would take 10-20 days. And I got them in 7. All my seeds where specially wrapped in individual packages. I believe that these strains are Offical and not just random seeds places in different boxes. I would recommend true north sees bank I had no problem. And these seeds look great and healthy
