They did not take action to get a credit card processor lined up. Sensible seeds is operating through a Chinese processor, Midweek Song has been working to get one lined up, you have to wire the money to them or use bitcoin, Seedsman moved from the UK to Spain. Ordering through a Spanish based seed bank, or using bitcoin seems to be the choices. If they want direct wire of $$ you should get a discount not some old free seeds or their house brand. I have had no problems ordering from Attitude using Visa...the only problem is that you will see Attitude on your bank statement.

That's too bad, I used to use them quite a lot until I started buying stateside, they always did right by me, good prices and fast shipping. But what they're suggesting now seems a bit convoluted, plus I hate the extra turnaround time of having to mail payment, and bank transfers cost a bit and you have to get out of your chair and drag your ass to the bank, lol.

Just ordered from Sensible Seeds, and they no longer take credit cards directly, but you can order and then buy a gift card through amazon.co.uk with your CC. Frankly I'm not sure if I did it right (prolly should have waited till Monday and called, but I get impatient, lol) because they didn't explain exactly how they wanted it sent (there are multiple options, I chose email, vamos a ver ;?).

On a separate note, I can't stand the bad Attitude, did biz with them for years and then they started screwing around and not wanting to make it right when I got bad beans or wrong orders, too big to care imo.

As to my earlier post about Sensible Seeds, the gift card workaround for the credit card issue worked perfectly l. I did that and the next day got an email saying it was received and seeds were getting ready to ship, great service imo. I put up a thread with a full review so hopefully anyone else wanting to deal with a reputable bank and want to use a CC ;?)

This is by Devil's Harvest Seeds. This is what Seedfinder has to say about it:

Shoreline is an old Sensi Skunk strain which made its way to the USA and there a group in Texas selected it. Sometime later, after a Grateful Dead concert in the Shoreline Amphitheater, the clone received its name and began to spread around the world.

From what we know the original Shoreline has been long lost but somewhere along the way someone of this crew made a cross of Shoreline with an Oasis male from Dutch Passion in order to preserve the strain. Again it was grown out and another clone was selected and this is the clone we are using today.

This is one of the stinkiest strains we have ever used. It has the really strong aroma of an old school skunk. What makes it unique is that the smell comes through on the taste. It is unusual to find a strain that carries a smell and flavor that are the same.

This is an 8-week strain with an old skunk look, very easy to grow, with a fast flower. She turns purple after week 6 and begins to smell the room.

Shoreline is a must strain for everyone and will make anyone’s top list. We have been honored to work with this strain and now we can bring this unique clone to seed form by making S1 seeds.
