well its been over 25 days since i ordered from https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/www.marijuana-seeds.nl....nada...nothing....zip.... the tracking said it had been passed onto australia post on the 28th so 21 days is a little long to be expecting them now....looks like customs have become competant all of a sudden....i guess after their screw ups with equine flu and letting foriegn murderers/rapists and criminals escape and enter our borders at will, that they thought it was a good move to put their efforts into stamping out minor seed importation...pull your head out of your ass customs.....you have bigger issues to worry about than weed.....
i got told today when i rang australia post that alot of ppl in customs have gone on strike so delivery may be alittle slow , your best bet is not to track on the site but call up australia post and give them the tracking number...they will tell u exatcly where its at "which post" and u can go pick it up in person instead of waiting on delivery.

not sure i want to go picking up the pacel in person incase they decide to nab me lol if it gets delivered ill be happy but ive written these ones off....cheaper to fly to canada and pick up some seeds from the breeders themselves than to take risks in mail....from scanning the forums seedbank reviews and seeing that usually reliable seed banks ive ordered from have stopped sending to aus due to bad strike rate of getting through customs it makes me think i shouldnt push my luck, ive had every order come through until now...its been a good run:P i only really ordered these ones to stock up before it was harder to get through customs as the rumours had said....too late lol im a little dissapointed, ive been growing and smoking the same strain for 2 years and though it still gets me buzzed i'd kill for something different :((

WTF ?????? are you serious mate ????? dont read third party stories and reviews and take it as bible, im in melbourne and have never not recieved an order, they have all arrived, go back in this thread a few pages and youll see pics of the deliveries i recieved, your not the only one in Oz buying beans mate, feds arnt going to be waiting for you to collect your order, there is no risk in mail orders if you pay for garuanteed shipping. As stated 1000 times previous, Planetskunk is fast and reliable but packaging is crap recieved in 5 days, Atittude is awesome, offer garuanteed shipping, arrives inside 7 days, Seedsman is much the same as Atittude, lil cheaper as we dont pay VAT Tax, arrives in 8 days. i have personally used all these and have recieved them all no issues. if your that hard up for seeds let me know and i can send you some inside a cd case, i have more than ill ever germ.

tazmanicbudz , unless u have a house full of the shit i wouldnt worry lol , there not interested in small time personal use grows. if your still have your email from them about the shipping out check to see if your details are spot on.also if the beans where going out to your house why not pick em up in person to save u some time. worst case scenario in my opinion is that customs bins your seeds and writes out a letter to u saying u wont get them "like they do every day a million times" if u get me.

O and marijuana-seeds.nl is my fav seed bank i have never missed and order from em, and it never takes more then 15days.

Final Harvest pics from last night, we will easily get a pound after drying, theres soem serious weight in the buds, we cut all the net and removed the frame of the screen and bam, all the buds around the sides hit the floor almost, all in all, not to bad for a 1m x 1m space, and slowly getting closer to 1 gram per watt, 1 p = 448 grams, we ran 600w light, i will let wait till we get final dried weight first.

no offence mate but this topic is old as the hills, it gets bought up every few months, ive posted pics of the orders i have recieved of late without any problems, i use my real details and have always got my beans sent to grow address, stop stressing place an order and trial it for yourself, its not like customs are waiting for your package man, your not the only one ordering beans around oz, if your sceptical only place a small order so worst case you lose minimal amount.
Unless you've already got a grow happenin, n the laws are now jail time..!!! I wouldn't send em to my address..!!

thanks. i wasnt just going on forum chatter though...im not that nieve. i was talking to one of the guys at rhino seeds that ive recieved mine from in the past and they were starting to experience over a 80% failure rate for delivery here so they just stopped....marijuana-seeds.nl are having the same issues so they took away their replacement guarentee for aus customers. i just called australia post and i was informed that my parcel has been sitting at the brisbane customs depot since the 8th....there was a 1 day strike in the time its been there but that wasnt enough to delay mail 2 weeks so its been siezed for sure as well as an earlier order from a different seedbank....pity i got the cheap orders but when i finally order some more exotic seeds they get snatched

Hey has anyone had experience with ozbongs.com or smoked out of a cyclone? Purchasing one tomorrow, wondering what delivery time is like, what the free gift usually is and anyone used a carbon filter on their glass piece? Cheers everyone, oh and true it'll go back to the post office but the postie will leave a notice in the letterbox letting you know what depot and time you can get your parcel. If aus post's tracking say's it's been sitting at customs for two weeks and hasn't moved then yeah i'd call it a day on those one's. The crackdown in customs on seeds isn't a rumor or conspiracy, it's really happening right now, certain states are ahead of others with picking things up, qld, wa and nsw in certain parts seem the most affected at this point, sa and melb are still recieving orders with only the usual amount vanishing. One change i will alert the riu community to is that certain items don't attract the automatic seizure letter anymore, they are hanging onto them now and keeping track so be careful, don't just reorder or order to close together. They wouldn't waste their time over 10 beans in a once off order but three or four to the same person will put a target on you immediately

It seems once they snag one of your packages then you go on a list and everything with your name on it from now on gets red flagged and gone over with a fine tooth comb. Have a very close friend who works in that particular customs department that's been giving me the heads up, just passing it along :)
