Do you think these online seed banks are safe to use?

I mean you order your seeds and you hand over your credit card details,
1st problem you have handed over your address.

I know these companies say we destroy all details but a company has to keep records for the vat/customs n tax issues.

So are they safe to use or not? i am not sure myself lets have your veiws and reports back.

Good Times/High Times.

1st.. get a safe house... a friend, family member who u trust... even make up a lie about what the package is if your quick enough.

second..send cash

3rd.. depending on the seed bank... some are very trustworthy.. some are not at all.. let us know which bank your thinking of and maybe we can help you out.

Someone could start a thread about reputable seed banks and distributors. I dont buy seeds and dont know, first hand, or I would start the thread. I know of some of the bigger seed companies and they must be doing something right to have gotten so huge. Just an idea. :wink: Pot n Peace.

Well im out in October so i will do my usual run around the better seed shops in ams, Sagmartha seeds and thseeds, possibly pop into greenhouse who knows.
Just wondered if anybody had used these online shops and if they had any comeback from it all.

mmmm... not to sure about this! can b good can be bad!

i was SUPPOSED to get 10 'the pure' seeds from te flying dutchman , this was face to face with the lady behind the counter recomending them as they were a high yielder (400+gr) in 8 to 9 weeks!, well it wasnt the pure, more like a haze, it finnally finnished after 14 weeks!!!

This was the first and only time it has happened! and it was a mental smoke to say the least WELL worth the wait!
