I've been fortunate. Herbie's years ago. Then stateside bean stores and breeders came along. Glg, Greenpoint, dcseed, twisty, heisen, I can't remember all of them. Even fleabay beans I bought twice. Exotic bird seed....
Herbie's is still good I also use Pevgrow. They have really good prices and seeds that germinate, lol

Got my order seized by the feds from Seedsherenow. That was fun. It was because somebody snitched on them for it. Cant keep shopping at a company that has haters trying to bring it down, I don't want to be collateral damage.
Damn, they're even supposed to be a US-based bank. I wonder if the pot cast got them on the radar?

You're asking for too much. GLG is a small operation.
Put your order in and just fucking *wait*.
I guess that's the advantage of being in my mid 40s, I've long ago learned patience.
yup, everybody thinks it should be here now 5 mins after ordering.... fucking millennials and amazon ruined the whole be patient thing

dude would really shit his pants having the wait times we did in the 90s when ordering seeds. order in december and get em in march

Was that at a local post office where they were mailed?

So I order from them, they send the seeds to the wrong address, first they say I put Alabama as my state then they got the state right the second time, I was chatting with a supposed “Maria” online. She Said they sent it out, and that’s all they’re responsible for. I said send them back to me when they’re returned I’ll even foot the shipping. She said they can’t because they use a fake address. This is the second issue I’ve had with them. I bought a wedding cake and a Bruce banner#3 fem, both lanes turned out to be autos. I did not order autos. So my friends. Tread very carefully with this company. They can easily rip u off knowing There’s nothing you can do!

Cali Connection seedbank out of California took my money and never sent me anything. Not this year but last year. No response to emailing them or calling them. But, went to bank and they investigated, got a refund.
Bought Tahoe OG seeds from them in prior year that I was very happy with, wanted togrow again. Not to be.r

Hi Guys,
Just wanted to describe some problems I had with Mr Nice seeds/auctions. They seem to have some quirks in their software...or their protocols.

Best to start a MrNice forum account...and then ask them to transfar that membership to MrNice auctions. That's how they have it set up.

If you get impatient and ask for a password reset...then you can access the auctions but it won't work in the forums. Nice to have forum access in case you need to ask about order.

I got some Mango Haze seeds for $62 shipped...so good deals can be had there.

My order was complicated by my inexperience with their procedure...but the help desk got me back on track. Helpful...but expect several days for email response.
Cheers,
JD
