Yeah I still have to hit up Attitudes since they have such a huge selection. None of the domestic banks come close to the selection Attitudes carries.

idk if i agree, i have used attitude and the choice so i'm not saying they are bad, but you can find the selection accross the many domestic companises. there are many others i know are good but i haven't used yet so i won't go listing em. but you really don't have to use over seas for selection. unless you want dinafem or delicious seeds or a selection of autos etc, which i have grown and have nice stuff. but there is equal and better here
I can name about 20 breeders I can get items from at Attitude that I cannot get anywhere domestic.
My recent order was The Plug Seedbank. I received a freebie of Sorbet a few months back. It was fantastic, so this time I ordered several strains from them. Can you link me to the domestic bank that carries The Plug? I will most certainly use them next time.

i eluded to if you after largely EU breeders then by al means use attitude, i have myslef, but if you cannot find gear that is as good or better on the domestic sites i've listed or neptune seedbank whom i havn't personally use but carry anything a true headie needs. that isn't to knock the plug, i'm sure it's fire but i mean seriously it isnt; worth cutoms imo just to get some EU stuff or to have domestic stuff sent back

Hello
This is BD, I hope you have received a update. But I do not know you buy name so I am not sure. And I am sorry things are behind. Please bear in mind that I personally fill every order and I have 1 full time assistant, Hound Dawg Deb (un-replaceable). And I did take off 2 days for Kush Stock and the Clio Cultivation Bash ,because they were in my home town. And I was helping Twenty20 genetics with their Pheno Hunt Challenge.
Our office was closed from good Friday threw Easter Sunday,but that did not stop the mail from building up.
And please do not take this as me bitching at you. I do my best to get orders in and out as fast as possible.
And you should not have to wait more than a week.
But with all the new gear we dropped over 420 and the 15% off and all the BOGO free deals as me working over time.
I will be doing nothing but order's until they are caught up.
Thanks BD

May I suggest that some among us light up a fatty and chill while USPS brings your new goodies right to your mailbox.

Bad Dawg,
First let me thank you for your response, it does mean something to me! Second I would ask you to please accept my apology, I know I can be difficult person. I have been in the customer service industry for about 13 years, and a stickler for customer service. My customers are my number one priority, and for you to take the time to reach out, I now know yours are as well.
I don't know of what update you speak of, but I did get this yesterday.
I guess I was one of the lucky first 100 payments. You may remember my payment it was in a card with an egg leaving a tattoo shop? Also I will like to retract my previous statement, when the time comes I will be more than happy to order from you again.
Have a great day!

I don't get all my beans from GLG but think service is as good as it gets or better. I’ve gotten specials that I thought I missed and Dynamite freebies and extras. Been in retailing of one form or another forever and these folks are very professional and friendly. Seems they are bright enough to also make a living, and I hope a decent living doing what they do. Only thing is stickers here are hazardous!

my first order at glg and it is BY FAR the slowest bank i've ever used. mailed payment early(8am) on the 15th. if you can't handle processing sales maybe you shouldn't have sales.

Much love to DBJ for the killer sales. It's always worth the extra wait time in my opinion. Please keep doing what you're doing.

A person could easily say that in anticipation of 4/20, someone might be best served looking at hiring some temp help to help process the orders. If you start hiring people and spending more money, how will that reflect in prices and freebies given out? I am willing to say, when your order does arrive you will be impressed and next 4/20 you will be eager to make another order. You will just need to remember that it is going to be a couple week process, relax and let time go by.

i feel offended, & i dont even work there. the bank youre speaking of has gone above & beyond & exceeded my expectations every time. my holidays & life are happier as they provide a way for me to secure what i am searching for. i am forever grateful to them, and cant find a way to repay them for their gratitude that has been shown to me on multiple occasions. i am sorry you are unhappy, if your beans dont make it, let me know & i will go in the fridge & pull out something you can try.
are you in the states? they were swamped. they handle processing just fine. the day of their sale i picked up four out of 5 limited packs i wanted, sent my card of thanks off saturday am, it arrived monday am, i had beans in my hand friday am, all while they were processing other good peoples orders. you couldnt find a better bank, glg is home for me & i have no complaints. we all were & have been initially skeptic, but there is none better than glg that covers all the bases.
the slowest bank i have dealt with has been from across the pond...

How long does it take to write out two addresses by hand? about a minute? With 200 orders, that is 3 hours and 20 minutes spent just filling out addresses. If you fill 2000 orders in a year then you're spending four full work days doing nothing but filling out addresses. Hopefully your new site can print shipping labels.

shipping labels would be nice, but cost more & takes away financially from the savings that gets passed on in the name of freebies i would think.

If my main concern was speed there are good banks that take cards and ship very fast and I use those also. But the freebies won’t be near as good nor as many great breeders’ specials and freebies.
I get what I pay for and far more at GLG and always have. Sending $$ domestically just don’t worry me.

perhaps they should put a in huge bold letters with a disclaimer saying you will have to wait a month for your seeds.

i've ordered from pretty much every bank including attitude/herbies and even the sketch greenline and none have been close to this slow. i sent out my payment promptly, noticed it took a week to post to the site and has just been sitting. i am not worried about not receiving the beans just in a reasonable amount of time. i even sent an email asking if it had made it there incase it got lost and to send another payment and just got some automated response.
