I’ve recently made an order with GLO seedbank, around 6 weeks ago, I think it was around 350-400$ I’m overseas in UK.
After 3 weeks of not hearing anything I asked for a tracking number to which I got a very rude reply, I said thank you for being prompt and ignored the rudeness.
Another 3 weeks later and multiple emails I’ve sent to no reply, now I’ve looked up this guy seems a very dodgy person who has conned people before, has anyone got any suggestions? Thanks guys

I don't think "ignoring the rudeness" means firing off numerous emails
Just sayin...

I've ordered from GLO a bunch of times. I wouldn't say he's a con, but he can be a dick, and they may have the worst customer service on the planet. My last order Amber sent me my tracking info the same day my seeds were delivered, I shit you not. I was actually just talking about them on another forum, no other seedbank could operate this way and still exist. Basically if you order from GLO your buying for the absurdly cheap prices and hard to find gear, and accepting that you will get your beans whenever they feel like sending them, and it may be a while. I don't think they would intentionally con anyone, but they definitely don't give a shit about you. They're IG posts lately have been truly absurd. And yeah, he goes by the Real Flava Creator.

I keep saying I'm done with them and then they have some crazy deal, or are the only ones with a strain I'm hunting for and I get sucked back in. I've come to accept them and their quirks, but I'd never actually recommend ordering from them without extensive caveats

Is he called the flava creator?? Sounds like a con merchant, has anyone else been conned by him?

Ya he goes by flavor creator 1, 2 or 3 on IG but has a bunch of different accounts because he probably get reported. Lots of people order from glo on here, including myself. I have gotten every one of my orders. Seen some complaints about glo on here but I believe most people are happy with the deals they get. He's not a con. The guy has by far the best prices out of any seedbank. People can resell for double the price on certain strains they buy from glo, he's that cheap. His emails and posts are too much and relentless, it's like he's yelling at you to buy seeds from him, lol.

It really is too much. I can't tell if he's really like this or if it's a character he's created....its surreal to think someone could actually think accusing their customers of being too stupid to appreciate their deals was a good sales pitch lol

The email format tells you a lot, lol. Def all good via CC. Snagged some rado twins there (bday cake) and one didn’t pop. any idea how old these are? Snagged like a month ago. I’m really good at getting them to crack so I don’t think it was me. I scuffed then paper towel on Router (heat). I always get tails and only struggle after that, lol. No tails on the twin. I would assume seed banks are storing them in the fridge while keeping them dry. Maybe not. I’ll update after I pop another one

Nah that is bullshit it's taking that long dude, you are in the right to be pissed. Only advice I can give you if you don't cancel you order is-just to tread lightly when emailing him, even though you shouldn't have to. I was just super nice one time my order took a while, I didn't get my tracking for weeks so emailed him about it and he got right back to me. He was pretty chill actually when I talked to him thru email. One thing people don't know is he is a one man operation, he told me he runs it all himself, amber is him. Dude should get some help with biz if he backed up.. Also he kind of the little guy going up against the big boys in terms of the cannabis seed business. This is the fucked up part> pretty sure the bigger seedbanks have started complaining to breeders that glo is selling seeds packs too cheap which is just fucking ridiculous. The bigger banks are mad because they can't tax already way overpriced hype seeds. Hope glo keeps charging cheap prices just to piss them off.
