cool. im ordering some lowrider #2 from dr. chronic. seeds are mad expensive but i have kids and live in a housing development so this strain is good.I just hope the high is as good as they say it is. lets hope they make it to NE USA. peace, e

[pokernaut]

sorry, but lowryder sucks! it's based on practically 0% THC ruderallis just so the breeder could get an autoflowering plant, not because of the high.

if you're considering it just for odor stealth, there are several potent low odor strains from indica dominant northern lights #5 to trippy & speedy cinderella 99 with apollo 11 somewhere in the middle.

try reading grow and smoke reports for it. it's very low rated

Great thread my brother Toasty. I have ordered from both these guys for 3 or 4 years now and have received with excellent, reliable service. Only thing was, last time I ordered from Gypsy I think it was, it took almost a month to get delivered to my P.O. Box. Oh and the guy who sold me my P.O. Box said that if one letter was wrong in the spelling of my name, he would not deliver the package. Maybe he knows our name games? Who knows...

hempdepot is quick too, under two weeks, from canada

Did you order in the US? Because I live in the US and really want to buy some nice seeds like NL or AK47, there is absolutely no homegrown buds where I live, its all schwag. Im kind of paranoid to order in the US.

Edit: nevermind, I saw you said they came to the US

So, what happens if I get caught ordering? Do they just get confiscated and nothing happens to me?

No one can predict what would happen to you, I can only report what I know about what has happened to others.

To my knowledge there has only been one bust in the USA of someone because of having seeds shipped in. And that was a very large shipment and under some special circumstances. Other than that one case, all I have ever heard of, and several folks have reported it, is that Customs will open the package, remove the beans, put a letter inside saying that they confiscated illegal contraband, re-seal it, and send it on to the addressee. So nothing has happened to these folks other than they lost their money, and in some cases they talked to the seedbanks and got a partial credit or re-shipment.

But...you never know if Customs has decided to crack down or make an example of someone, so you always take a bit of a chance. On the other hand, if you don't create a paper trail when you purchase the seeds (in other words, if you don't use a credit card), then you can deny everything and say that someone must have had them sent to you to try to get you in trouble.

Maybe it's just where I live or something but I have ordered from gypsy nirvana 2 times and both times I have been burned with no simpathy from them whatsoever. Both times they sent me responces about receiving my order and my money but both times nothing has arrived. I do everything that you guys do ( safe name and safe address) but still nothing. Just my oppinion but I can tell you I will NEVER try gypsy nirvana again, lost over $400 dollars total sending to them. I just cant afford it. But I am about to send in an order to Dr. Chronic and will tell you guys what happens. Congrats to everyone who received there order from gypsy nirvana, atleast some people have good luck with them. Also how do you get 10% off and some freebies from Dr. chronics.

[oldgrayhair]

NYSD, we all feel your pain from not getting seeds. Might I suggest you spend a bit less...say what you would normally drop on a 1/4 of dank? That way if something goes wrong you won't be out so much cash.

I can vouch for the Dr. taking care of small orders as mine was only about 60 bucks, came to FLA no prob.

HTH, OGH

it could be that your local post office has a sticky fingered employee. that's why i only order beans by CC as two out of two money orders i sent to a record store for an import disappeared.

either that, or someone in your neighborhood is snatching your packages. your luck with gypsy sucks. i got BOTH of my orders from there just fine.

if you've ever seen hidden camera shows, they did one in a post office around the holidays and TWO employees were opening letter after letter and grabbing all of the cash inside.

i know one time i was riding a bus and this really sketchy character was trying his HARDEST to get me to open a post box and using it for storing money. finally, after he wouldn't give up i told him to shut the fuck up and bother someone else.

the ONLY reason someone would be THAT concerned is if they have something to gain from it and that cemented my distrust of postal workers for good. it's too bad you can't get a different mailing address away from your local post office and home address. i'd bet a nickel that's where your problem is.

hopefully you don't go around bragging to everyone that you're buying beans. that would be a really bad idea and an invitation to trouble from wannabe friends too.

here's an idea... try buying a cheap small item from overseas (preferably from the UK or netherlands) at an ebay store and see if that disappears too. you'll end up paying $4 or so in shipping, but it's a good way to test your mail safety.

do you live in a city? do you have a secure mailbox? i once lived in a building where a bunch of mailboxes were destroyed from people jamming them open and i'd seen boxes sitting wide open many times. if you have one of those little open mailbox especially, it could be that someone walks by daily on their way to school or something snatching every package they see.

you're the first person i've ever heard getting TWO packages snagged

[NYSD]

hey guys thanks for the info. They were both sent to a PO Box. And I wouldnt dream of telling anybody about my order. Maybe I was getting paid back for something I did wrong along time ago or something. You know that Karma thing will always get you in the end. Maybe I will try and place a smaller order from them and see if anything goes wrong. I know I am about to order from Dr. Chronic though. Maybe I will do what this guy did and place the order at the same time and see what happens. Thanks again for the sympathy, Later.

[pokernaut]

here's to hoping you get your beans this time.

[straittotheface]

ive looked and looked and maybe im just lookin the wrong place butttt
i was wondering if anyone could tell me what is prolly the best place
to buy seeds from that will ship to the U.S and A

[NYSD]

Hemcy, Dr. Chronic, seedsdirect, and I guess Gypsy Nirvana.
