Well order #1 arrived with everything as paid for.
Order #2 arrived and was missing the 4, 710 Genetics freebies.
I emailed them to see what the deal is.

Is it one freebie bundle per order, or per customer? I know some sites explicitly say one per customer, but not sure with these guys.
That is what I am waiting to find out when they email me back. This will be the first time they withheld one though. I generally make multiple orders during the March promos.
It doesnt say either just as supplies last on the ad. Plus it showed in my order, if it had not, I wouldnt have ordered a 2nd.

that'sthe same question i was going to ask tomarrow will be day 7
Well today i can answer my question and yours geno. Today mine was updated and sent to distribution center in New Jersey were its ready to be delivered to Pennsylvania. I think once it goes to the sorting facility it has cleared cust. I ordered on the 13th wich was a friday so it didn't get sent out until monday because they don't work on the weekend. Its been 14 days since i made my order, but i know its on its way. I wouldn't worry give it time. I'll let you know when mine arrives.
ISC is not customs, that is the international sorting center.
It goes to ISC, then goes to customs. Rarely ever does it update that it is at customs so basically it will stay at ISC until it updates at the next post office.
Origin post preparing shipment means it hasnt made it to the US postal service yet. Origin post is wherever it may be, in this case UK, Royal Mail.

Just to update, got an email this afternoon asking me to confirm which freebies were missing, so I confirmed the 4, 710 genetics seeds and emailed them back. They are closed until Monday though, so I guess it will be Monday before I find out the next step.

What did you order?My order came today. No problems at all. They all look nice and healthy.
well, after waiting…and waiting….and waiting….and more waiting…..i finally received my order…for some reason, it wasn't held up in customs too long, however, after going through customs, it was held up at another post office for 6 days….for no apparent reason…once it got to my post office, it was delivered the same day….everything i received was fine…but i don't think i'll use Choice again, as it took way too long to receive my order, compared to other places that get me my orders from 7-10 days….not sure how long exactly this took, but it was in the 17+ days area, easily.
Ok, so last update. As of this morning, they emailed me and asked me to confirm what I DID receive. Which I did, about 30 minutes later they emailed me back and asked if I would like them to mail the missing seeds now, or place it on my next order and they would add an extra "souvenir". I asked them to mail it now, since I am not sure when I will make my next Choice/Attitude order. I was planning to make a 3rd order but the ufos have not changed in weeks.
Anyway, as always, Choice/Attitude has taken care of me.

Customs is generally inbetween the ISC and the post office. It will actually leave ISC without an update and doesnt update tracking until after it leaves customs. That is what that time is inbetweeen updates.
And are you saying that Attitude/Choice has control over customs now and they arent fast enough? You realize no seedbank can control customs correct? They send it out, the mail system does what it does. It has nothing to do with the seedbank.
^I understand that, but all my other orders from other seed companies arrive in a MUCH faster time period. When I would order with Attitude, it was quicker as well.
And once my orders get to the US, they normally sit in customs for 3 days tops….the Post Office that they were held up in WAS NOT customs.
In fact, it said that the package left that post office, then returned to that same post office & sat a few days before being delivered to my local post office, which was very weird, something that has never happened to any package of mine before.
No, I'm not blaming Choice for that, but I am blaming them for a MUCH longer period of time before my package even arrived in the US. And I am blaming them for not being able to track the package until it arrived in the US, as I've also never had that problem with ANY company before.
Why order from them when it takes 20+ days to receive, when I can go to Cannazon or SSC & receive my order in 7-14 days? and be able to track my order the whole way here.

I received my order yesterday and they gave me extra freebies on top of the other freebies. People need to be more patient. Mine took 17 days probaly cause i ordered on a friday and it didn't get sent out till monday. I think they are trying to be even more stealthy these days cause some of the orders are being shipped from UK to other neighboring countries then being shipped to the U S.

Has anyone else noticed the Euro to US dollar conversion that they are using is way off?
On a 35 Euro seed purchase it should be $37.75 instead it's $50. ($12 extra dollars).
Also they haven't updated any Promos since February.

Placed my order monday the 16th. It was updated as through customs on the 26th and the last update i got was it departed from some new york usps on the 27th. It has been sitting in that same update process since. Checked tracking and the mailbox today, still nothing. Last update was still the 27th. This order is my first from Choice but is taking the longest of any previous orders. Not their fault i am sure but i want my beans lol.
