That price includes free shipping. At $15 for shipping he was making $25 a pack so I'd say he was a little on the low end of pricing. You're getting real inbred lines and true hybrids also.
Mike usually chucks in free beans with each order too.

I never buy from seed banks that charge more than $10 for shipping, so that's not quite a good excuse for more than 50% price increase.

In the competitive seed market, if you beat the competition with quality seed and price then you are a winner, easily; like how it was before at $40 per pack. Now? meh. I'll look at other breeders instead.

Very true. Most places take you for every penny they can on shipping while Peak does it for free, and I've always gotten free seeds from him.

And if you still think they are too expensive, like @Kp sunshine says they are IBLs so if you choose, you can make your own and never buy again.

With regards to shipping, Mike could have kept the price at $40 or maybe even $50, then charge $10 for shipping separately. Now, you pay $60 for every damn pack.

I know his seeds are IBL and high quality, but we are not talking about breeding here. And not many are interested in making seeds.

Looks like he had just lost the magic as to why one would buy from him without thinking twice due to both value and quality. I won't be recommending PeakSeedsBC as the ultimate value anymore.

A lot of that beanho stuff is older I think... ok germ rates but not fresher.

That is quite a jump in price like you said, but I'd say he's still at the bottom end of pricing.
Bean Horder is $45/10 + $6.75 for tax and $10- $19 for shipping. That's $61.75 - $71.75 a pack. More strain variety but no cheaper, and you don't get free seeds from the depot. Well you do get Malberry's giveaway.

Let's just say PSB is now inline with others, but like I said, Mike had just shot himself in the foot. At $40 per pack, I would try every single strain he carries. But now? Forget it! I would rather buy and try a lot BeanHo's rare strains now like stuff from Spice of Life / Breeder Steve. Where else can you buy Sweet Tooth, BlockHead, Freisland (not Breeder Steve strain), etc.? Way more interesting strains and again, I would try many of them at $45/pack.

I was going to take my time and try ALL, I mean ALL, of Mike's strains. But now, I will take my money somewhere else for more interesting stuff.

Mike had just lost repeat business from me and my recommendations on the Internet (which is way more valuable) of his stuff.

Let's get real now. Why is Mike's stuff so popular on here? I would bet that it is because his stuff were $40/pack. Let's see who continues to try many of his stuff at $60/pack.

As mentioned above. If you got quality and can beat the competition with price, then you are the WINNER! That's why Mike's seed was so popular and had been as he's known for very good pricing for many decades. Now, you just got quality and the price is the same as the competition. So, one would look for other interesting stuff instead of going for a shopping spree at Peak.

You can still order directly.
I just did.
Same prices, same everything, new bonuses. That link is a reseller offering an online payment option.
Lots of shit being flung over nothing.

Thanks for chiming in. How am I supposed to know about that online pricing being different from direct order?

Whatba relief! PeakSeedsBC back to near the top of my go to breeders.

But people who are uninformed and don't roam this thread is paying 50% higher price. That's still not cool.

 

[GreenHighlander]

I'm looking at the peakseedsbc website and looks like Mike had just increased the price per pack to $60. Is this for Canadian too? If so, this sucks! I would think twice about buying Mike's seed now. $40 was a no brainer and I would recommend Mike's seeds whenever I get a chance. But now, PeakSeedsBC is just like any other breeders now with overpriced seeds.

$60 a pack is overpriced? Because of $20 you can no longer recommend peakseedsbc? GTFO with your bullshit. Go buy your seeds at walmart

Cheers

For me, it's worth it. I wouldn't run to Sensi right now to order their Northern Lights for around $190 CAD plus taxes and shipping, or DJ Short's Blueberry for $208, just because Mike decided to now charge $60 for equivalent genetics plus freebies.

Mike should just give his beans away. I mean how dare he raise prices after like 10+ years. Everyone knows growing weed is free, I mean come on!

It is funny how Mike is a the bad guy for raising prices after years and years of set pricing and the dude not wanting to pay an extra $20 for a product is a victim.

Literally every aspect of commercial business has increased in cost over the last 5+ years. Mike's rent, printing, shipping, packaging and utilities all cost money and then add in human labor.

It's just the one whiner making a big deal out of nothing. I hope losing his very, very important internet recommendations doesn't put Peak out of business.

The grownups understand and don't have an issue.

Price only went up if you order online, direct it's the same $40 wit free shipping and freebies. Even at $60 it's cheaper than bean horder
Lots of thanks for putting your neck on the line.

I think peak/mike definitely earn that $60 a pack. Like others have mention with his gear you can buy a pack or two and do an open pollination and you now have seeds for the next 10 years. Stable seeds that look like clones. Not a barrel of poly hybrid fish.

$60 is still more than fair for what you get.

For that price you could get 2 seeds of the untested dessert hype pollen chuck du jour, or a few grams of government cardboard weed. Geez, what a scam

I mentioned a page or two back about having multiple BB phenos going, with very different appearances. Finally got around to taking a couple pics.
First, the pretty girl:

Now the ugly duckling:

She ain't pretty, but somebody told me once that ugly girls try harder.

These are from the same pack, germed at the same time, treated the same way in the same tent.

Edit: just noticed even the decent looking one has 8 fingered leaves. Blueberry is such a genetic mess.

 

[shzbt]

That crinkle leaf pheno has a reputation for being special, you might have something nice there.

My skunkberries are looking very similar to your pretty girl. Same orange hempy buckets, topped and big fans reaching for the light.

Here are my four PSBC BB plants. One is definitely a mutant but I’m going to care for it nonetheless. They all seem to have leaves that are a little crinkled. I’ll be really happy if I get a good female to clone from these four.
