The guys I mentioned all work on word of mouth they never advertise that is one of the reasons I use them especially the hempdepot. No big flashy ads to bring heat on and that guy delivers the goods. I am not trying to get into a pissing match just trying to give someone the best advice that i can. I have ordered off of the hemp depot and always get what you ordered an super stealth. He stocks some real fine genetics too thier cannacopia seed company bc road kill is a winner that is for sure. I also have ordered from nirvana the first time ever from europe jock horror my wife wants to try it I used my credit card for that transaction due to the fact I want them for this winter and jack herer is just to expensive for me so I thought I would try nirvana's three way. I always give my real name an my address never a friends why get a friend pissed off I have ordered lots of pot and seeds from BC through the mail an not once did I have a problem via the now defunct budmail for the pot i ordered. just go for it bro who ever you decide on iam sure you will get your beans. go to treating yourself an see how much they like the hemp depot. I think most bean retailers will ship no more than fifty at a time making sure they keep things stealth.

I'm not trying to put down hemp depot. They have been in business a long time and have a great rep. I have heard great things about peakseedsbc (not peakseeds) service as well.
But of the 2-3 seed busts I have heard of, all seeds went through chicago customs, and all busts took place in indiana. Maybe it's just a coincidence. Maybe it's an indiana problem, not a chicago problem? Either way, to be fair I think I should share this info.
If my facts are wrong, please correct me.

So say the order came from attitude and was heading for hawaii?

Honestly, I have no idea.
I'm not trying to scare ppl out of ordering seeds, I have done it 3 times myself. I truly believe that it is an extremely low risk proposition if you deal with a reputable bank.
But the topic of this thread is "worst case scenario", so I have answered to the best of my knowledge.
If you want to smoke the DANK you have to grow a set of CAHONIES an go for it. Getting seeds will be the least of your problems if you start an grow good bud. First thing a newbie will want to to is show a friend. Or they do not take into consideration THE SMELL when growing an a neighbor smells skunky off smell an phones the COPPERS on ya. So get the beans keep your mouth shut not even girlfriends of relatives an grow the DANK end of subject
Not so much a hobby anymore. I am not the op, but yeah I'm paranoid I guess. Honestly I think I would be more comfortable carrying it on me than having it mailed.
I've grown outdoor plenty. Just getting into indoor, but have been reading/researching for years. I have common sense which would encompass
a lot of your post so yeah I guess it comes down to "CAHONIES".
YEA CAHONIES I dont know if you are being nice to me but that is what is needed. I was reading last night the INDOOR OUTDOOR GROWERS BIBLE by Jorge Cervantes. I was reading the ordering seeds section. this is a QUOTE from ordering seeds section. If us customs seizes your order of seeds they will send you a note informing you of the fact, WE HAVE NEVER HEARD A REPORT OF A LAW INFORCEMENT OFFCIAL SHOWING UP AT YOUR DOOR go to the greenmans seedbank update www.seedbankupdate.com. He regularly updates the page an lists seed companies performance level. I used to to nothing but grow outdoors too but got ripped off alot moving indoors was the best move I made always have some real good smoke a round just do not tell anyone an I mean anyone that is the best advice I can give you. oh yea make sure you get a CAN CAN charcoal filter an a at 150 cfm blower fan to keep the SMELL AT BAY PEACE AN POT

MJ at PEAKSEEDSBC.COM totally RIPPED ME OFF and he is so being a dick about it. I mailed my order in the beginning of Oct 2009. I emailed him 3 weeks later and he said he mailed my order which I never received. He said he would resend another order. Never received it. Emailed it again and he said 'it must have gotten lost in the mail.' I emailed him 3 weeks ago and again he told me it must have a got lost in the mail. This time I told him that it was impossible for 3 orders to get lost in the mail and I wasn't buying his story. Now he will not respond to me at all. I did write to Greenman since now pekseedsbc.com has a Greenman symbol on his home page. It doesn't appear that Greenman is that honest either since he wouldn't do anything about him ripping me off. Also I searched the web and found many, many other complaints from people saying they never got their orders either. He may have been honest long ago and DO NOT BUY FROM HIM AGAIN.

I am 50 yrs. old. Attitude Banks "stealth" cool mug, this what I selected for my shipment. Well, the FEDS intercepted it, I just never heard of them confronting the person whose name was on the package. Attitude Banks directs you to use your real name to ensure delivery. Well I am here to tell you the the FEDS showed up at my house with an open package, the "cool mug" supposedly "stealth". One of them flashed a badge and while I tried to discuss this outside on my porch. They said let's talk inside, and I could not stop 2 FEDS from entering my home. So once they got in they asked us to sit down on the couch, and they set down on the loveseat. So first he asks my name. I tried to use my middle name as my first, and somehow he new my first name. Okay why did order these seeds? Are you growing? Are you selling it? I said no. And my wife was crying she did not know anything about this. She asked where the hell was I going to grow this, I said I gave no thought about it yet. I confessed, but I have a serious mental illness bi-polar, and have done stupid things in the past. I told them I was under a doctors care, and I discovered over the years that marijuana gives me an appetite and makes me feel better, something the anti-depressants failed to do. I expect they thought they could get inside and smell a grow operation. They had no warrant to search, nothing was in plain view. So after a while one of the agents said well I'm going to let you off with a warning, this is your lucky day. He told me that he hoped to never see me again. I assured him that he would never have any reason to see me again.
pretty major situation, to say the least
these were DEA agents? they certainly had no right to enter your home, but they know they can sometimes get people to cave
been a long time since i've seen this coming up on the forums, only seen local LE do follow up

You know they were undercover, and when they flash a badge, it was bad. I'm not sure, they may very well have been Federal Customs Agents. We're talking about 50 seeds or so. I had convinced myself that this country doesn't have the money (USA broke) to waste there time on such. And (US Post Office) so broke our tax dollars bail them out year after year. So they can investigate this small time shit. What a good deal the US taxpayers are getting. Seriously the "Knock and Talk" they did to me probably cost at least $500 or more to perform. Considering gas, long journey from closest large city, and the agents salaries for the day, and they suceeded in scaring the shit out of me. Next time I will use Barry's advice to not even open the door and make them speak to you on your cell phone
appreciate you sharing info, not sure if customs agents go out and field work, think i've heard there are such things as customs agents
never heard of them doing anything like this, maybe someone else is more knowledgeable

interesting.. now you have me straight shit scared. if i do purchase i'm going to be using a prepaid via gift card, international use. i'm only going to be ordering five feminized seeds? do i have something to worry about? i can tell you one thing, if they show up i'm not opening the god damn door.
this is the 1st mention of customs agents ever showing up
think your chances are very small of any troubles
i'd be a bit skeptical that customs agents would come out looking for a grow, that's the DEA's job

that's what i'm thinking. it's only there job to dispose and if necessary, tell local law enforcement. the person who mentioned this also has 0 credibility on this forum. I'm not worrying to much about it, attitude seed bank is the safest choice?
yeah, it's tough to know who to believe
i think customs agents used to do this kind of work years ago, before there was a DEA
walking into a potential grow situation has to be viewed as a potentially dangerous situation from a LE point of view
customs agents just don't sound right
for safest bank, my guess is they're pretty similar
most packs get through, a few don't and arrive with green tape
