Seedsman Seeds Shipment to U.S

im in the U.S and i ordered seeds from seedsman. On Jan. 3rd i tracked my package with Royal Mail and it said my package had made its destination to the U.S, then i tracked it with USPS and it said "origin post is preparing shipment". It has remained in this status ever since, for 11 days. Just want to know if anyone that is located in the U.S has ordered from seedsman. Also would like to know if i should be worried that they were confiscated by U.S customs by now. Any help, please.

I'm having similar problems with Herbies, I placed the order on December 26th and it said it had arrived in New Zealand on the 1st of Jan and it's still awaiting delivery process. I've received 2 orders fine from them so I'm just chucking it up to the Christmas period madness. Hope all goes well and you receive your order soon :)

im convinced the postal workers are incompetent. id almost rather have ups or dhl or some other form (fedex??) of shipping offered.

Seedsman didn't use to ship to the US so
not many people (from the US) have ordered
from there. I'm not exactly sure when they
started shipping here but it wasnt that long
ago. The do seem to have a good reputation
among non-US customers.

As for UPS and FedEx, if they were good options
all the seed banks would already be using them.
The shipping cost isn't the issue, the increased
scrutiny and confiscations of packs shipped by
UPS/TNT/FedEx is the problem.

Had same problem with attitude. 11 days just to show up on USPS. It's just slow season. I posted some mail on 31 Dec that hasn't made it overseas yet according to USPS.

If it made it through the us customs you will be fine. That is the last level of security. After that, the package is considered "cleared" and safe to continue to destination.

Three months ago I ordered from seedsman and they took my money but never sent me the seeds! There is no telephone contact with seedsman. The e-mails they use to answer questions are generic and useless! They asked me to wait 11 more days, twice! Then they said they would resend but it would cost me $100 more! seedsman is no good if you live in America

Sorry to hear that Scooter1st. I've ordered from seedsman twice lately. I live in Michigan. The first order took about 10 days. The second order just cleared Chicago with USPS. On the seeds I just received I soaked 4 blue dream by Bull dog seeds and 4 Pre-99 big bud from seedsman. All sprouted tails after just one day. So I'm happy and now they are planted .Waiting on some C99 and Royal Cookies to complete my grow for the season. I'm a happy customer

Hi,
I just got my order from Seedsman confiscated by U.S. Customs. They sent them in a see through 10¢ pencil case. I guess the little compartment underneath they considered to be safe. No !! it's where the pencils go. Maybe if it wasn't Clear it had a chance. What happened to hiding them in stuffed animals, Legos, items surrounded in bubble wrap or even movie cases. That's what their stealth reviews say at least. It wasn't a big order. But it was for me. Especially being a med patient, who's unable to work. Was even in an undersized envelope so it was bulging and obvious. I paid for stealth which is supposed to mean a reship or maybe signed is reship if they get lost. Idk i should get a reship because their getting overconfident if their using see through cases. Could have bought oversized pens to put them in. I just got an order last month from Seed City that was in a movie case.

I took the risk and got another order shipped because I didn't receive first order that was confinscated. We will see if this one makes it to me.

Ordered 2 variety 10 pack of autos got them in 25 days. The only thing I didn't like about the discreet packaging is they came in 2 separate baggies but not labeled, but the freebies were labeled. Me n my dude are gonna grow 20 autos but don't know what they are. Exciting but at the same time wish I knew what we are gonna b growing & smoking.:bigjoint: We have Seamango n King Kong. Ordering some blackberry gum tomorrow, heard good things about the blackberry! So needless to say we are going with seedsman for the third time n we r from great state of :o:eyesmoke::o

Got the 'Your Order Has Shipped' email yesterday so we will see how long my order takes. I hope their stealth delivery is just that and it makes it through customs. I usually order from MSNL and they usually hide the seeds in the stitching of an article of clothing or something along that order. This is my first order from Seedsman and I only ordered from them because they started selling Regular Auto's. The first harvest is mainly going to be for seed production.
