That may be good advice in the case of Pacific Seeds.Every pollen chucker in America is trying to cash in on seeds. I know nothing of Pacific Seed Bank but people should be cautious purchasing anything from all these new outlets. Heck, I can make a website and sell seeds I make and call them anything I want. I can even duplicate breeder packaging fairly easy. What is anyone going to do? Contact the US government and claim you're pirating their product? Cannabis is illegal at the federal level. Currently people are free do do whatever they want without any fear of enforcement. Best to stick with established seed banks that have been in business for years and have proven relationships with the actual breeders. All these new places with new strains? Never going to get my money. I have mainly used Sensible seeds since they have been around a long time, have the largest selection of well established breeders and shipments arrive in the US from the UK in under a week.
Although even if Pacific seeds turns out to be a flop quality wise or even an outright scam and they never ship anything, I'm not willing to condemn every other new company. A lot of domestic US companies have come around in the last couple of years that people are very pleased with and somebody had to try them out first.
For me, it's sort of a matter of who will take a risk and report the results back honestly to places like this.
For the record, so far I'm not impressed with Pacific "your payment has not been received yet, we're swamped" etc. But, at least they have responded. I'm going to ride it out until next week and if they still don't have any news on whether they have my payment, I'll look into cancelling the money order and take the hit. Sad thing is, I was most interested in seeing if their seeds were at least copies made from the "real thing".
