Just received my 9th order, since first ordering from the 'tude very late 2011.
I've only had one hick-up with them- last year they sent me Panama DC instead of Panama.
I contacted them (corresponded with Judy, I think) and they asked for a photo.
End result was they would send me a free pack of Panama along with a next order.

I always get them in the breeder's pack, and don't even bother with guaranteed delivery,
t-shirts, etc. any more- they always get here using the cheapest option. And since the orders have
been entering the country in SF rather than NY lately, they're getting here even sooner- a week or less.

fyi, Mr. Nice seeds aren't cheap, but I got 18 Nevilles Haze for the pack price of 15- a better per-seed deal
than other costly genetics (eg, DJShort). That's apparently the way Mr. Nice works, from other reports I've heard.

Re: other seedbanks, check Seed Boutique-
https://www.seedboutique.com/

Got a 10-pack of Sam the Skunkman's Original Thai Haze x Skunk#1 as a freebie last week, on request.
Not as convenient as Attitude, but great freebies that they're willing to work with you on, and sometimes
(much) cheaper in price- keep an eye out for sales.

best of luck

My most recent Attitude order arrived 7 daze after placing the order, that's with a bank holiday included.
The stealth shipping was in the form of a grand daddy purp t-shirt. Meh, added it to the rag pile... :shock: :wink: :lol:
Two, possibly three more shopping trips to the 'tude and I'll have a nice little seed bank of my own. Ahhh, variety... :)
I'm seeking 100% Colombian strains - gold, black, and red, if anyone has a clue, let me know. Most places have been sold out for some time, and others offer hybrids that aren't 100% Colombian.

What about refunding your money?

No they said good luck next time. :( they did try I guess.

You think it is easy getting seeds through customs down your way? That place is zipped up tighter than zippy after all his zips have been done up and double locked then put in a safe and locked again.

Did you opt for the stealth packaging or have items taken out of their original packaging?
Well Zippety opted for stealth and to be taken out. I think Zippety will try no stealth and to be taken out of packets. Zippety said his own postal service has been much more of a help but won't speak much more on that matter!

Seems my run of good luck with purchasing seeds online has finally come to an end... :(
I placed an order with The Attitude Seedbank on the 4th, received an email that day stating my order has been processed and dispatched.
On the 11th (seven days later), I checked Royal Mail Tracking and discovered that the package was sent to the US, on the 10th.
Yesterday I checked Royal Mail Tracking and the package has arrived and is ready for delivery - in CHICAGO!!!
My concerns are...
...processing of mail by Royal Mail. The package sat somewhere for six days, WTF? Also, they might want to look at their method of scanning parcels... sending a package to the US instead of Europe is perhaps more than a simple oops.
...the attitude from The Attitude. After sending an email which expressed my concerns over the status of my "paid" order, I received a reply which basically stated that I'll have to wait 21 working days (a month) before making a claim of non-delivery. Regardless of policy ( hey, how about an exception to policy? nah, just kidding, that could be mistaken for good customer service... :roll: ), do the proper thing and immediately dispatch another order, ensuring proper handling. Send a parcel recall to Royal Mail, and restock if/when the parcel is returned. Too easy... :roll: :)

Well, the honeymoon is over between me and The Attitude. Next, I'll let them determine (by their actions or lack there of) if the marriage will survive.
If for any other reason to start chucking pollen or breeding, not having to deal with this type of BS is surely it.

Happy Farming...

:D Thats a shame with the Attitudes attitude ron. I've been lucky with them got my orders very quick and even buying only 2 seeds they put in a freebie, cotton candy this one and before that a mazar kush. Which as it happens has been in the jar 20 days now and is smelling V V nice. Getting a nice rag pile too. :|
What a long strange trip it is.

In my opinion Serious Seeds and Mr. Nice Seeds are the way to go. (Shantibaba and Simon really know what they are doing.)
