Seedbank Reports and Confiscated Shipments

ayr0n said:

Just to help everyone out who might still decide to go with Attitude (they do have good seeds after all, plenty of good reviews throughout various forums, plus some nice freebies, user friendly site, etc) can you tell us which shipping method you chose? There are numerous options that they call "stealth shipping", anywhere from mugs to shirts, in breeders packs and out, etc , etc...so if we knew specifically what you chose it might narrow down which methods aren't making it through customs a little...

Choose no item. It comes in a envelop rather than a big package with a shirt or mug.

this is how the single seed sends them and they come in a light envelope. I think its a lot more suspicious having a package that weighs a pound or 2 that dogs find then just an envelope. and it seems to me like they don't check envelopes as much as a package

I'll be honest guaranteed no items has been working for me. I know plenty still getting orders from the tude.
From what I hear it's the Chicago and l.a. customs that's intercepting packages

Chose the xxl shirt -.- Idk it might just be a couple bad luck situations...gotta consider too that people let it be known when things don't work out more often then when everything goes smooth ...

I've used attitude for 2 orders now, both with the extra cost stealth shipping, first one came with a t-shirt, second one came with a coffee mug... It also got held up @ US incoming, and it's a good 3-4week process... but both showed up no probs.

I like them cuz I can get 2x the seeds I order if I shop accordingly, or wait for the right sale to pop up...

Here's a few order I'v placed from the tude, I live in the Midwest. Mine hit customs in Chicago almost every time. I yet to wait more than 21 days from payment to my hand. Never had any issues out side a missing seed or crushed seed. Always been replaced on the next Order. 99% rate of germination. <---- maybe user error. With that said I'v had a fair share of mutens but cant blaim the tude for that, tho if I could find a way to get the tude to replace those seeds that mutated, I would have nothing bad to say. (out side their price on seeds)

Also I have used about every stealth method they have (cup,t-shirt.....)

hey m8, just an fyi, i took out all of those numbers, as i have a feeling some of them may be searchable if you know what you're doing, and it'd easily id you.. just to be on the safe side..

Dr. greenthumb, fastest delivery and no stealth-it's just in an envelope. If I place an order on a Mon. they arrive by Fri. One time they arrived a week later, mon.-mon. People may hate on him but he has some of the best genetics I've ever seen. It's a little pricey but I don't mind paying for the quality and absolute speed of delivery. I've also never had a package so much as looked at-probably because it comes like regualr mail?

I'm totally with this. The stealth package is a big red flag more then anything, IMO

The thing is what your also missing about the tude is they also have an apparel shop. They sell shoes,shirt ,hat.... I'v used a few times. They come in the same packages and addressed from the same shop as my seeds pack. I smoke with my mail person, been friends for years. She claims mostly postal employee will look for these package hoping to find goodies. I don't think all that get "confiscated" where taken legit. just a little tidbit for what its worth.

But even I with no bad luck from the tude have been looking for some place better, best to keep big brother guessing (if their looking because we know their listening)

How about tags? Just have everyone tag the seedbank, or as a mod you can always go in and tag it yourself. Unless someone wants to edit the original post and add links, or just a key to show how many orders did not make it.

Maybe a poll for each location. Did i get my seeds? Y/N

This is actually a good idea, but you have the possibility of it being manipulated too..Seeing how the vendors have money at stake, and a RIU account is free...maybe I'm just paranoid lol.

I have so many of them

heyo, to who ever had the post that listed all of their orders and order numbers, i was simply trying to delete the order numbers as i have a feeling they'd be easily traced leading to your id, not a good idea imo, but i think i somehow erased the entire post, and don't see it now, sorry about that..

I'm not sure if it is possible, but we can limit the poll access to well-known members or something.

I have never had an order come up missing until that lousy Dr Greenthumb...or should I say GreeDthumb... what an arrogant asshole. $150 for 6 fem C99 that he didn't even breed. All I can say is keep it thin because bulk attracts attention. I ordered some expensive seeds from Seedsman and they went the extra mile and hand wrote the letter. The first order I got from Sannies was sent as a greeting card. Most of my orders have come from Attitude and I just pass on the stuff that will just add another 4-5 days ship time.

Mine hit the States Saturday...I'll keep you guys posted. Fingers still crossed >.<

I reached out to Attitude and sent them this thread link to see if someone could come address this officially. They said they'd look into it - and admitted that more packages have been being confiscated lately, but said it was a minuscule volume compared to how many orders they're processing and shipping daily. It's more likely someone with an issue would broadcast it on the internet than someone who got what they wanted - same reason Online Reputation Management exists...Hoping this is the case here.

Quick question if anyone knows...does a package go through customs before it reaches a sorting facility? Tracking says it's been processed through sorting facility, then got an update that it's been "dispatched" from the sorting facility (in Chicago)...am I in the clear?
