I tried about 5 different seed banks to try and purchase some beans and each and every time as it was saying it was authorizing the transaction with the bank...it said failed. I called up my bank today and they said they cant do anything cause its Saturday. She also said that some countries are restricted from doing business. I purchased other items online no problem. Are there any American seedbanks. Out of the country isn't working and I don't wanna wait till Monday to call my bank and try to have a restriction removed...if even possible. Any info on seedbanks in the usa would be great!

I dont know what state you are in, but many of the local medical dispensaries have seeds they sell. The selection is pretty limited most places, and it is usually better to just buy clones since then you save a couple weeks and you know you are getting a fem plant.

If you are planning on growing a bunch of plants you can either get a try of clones, or just get a couple and turn it into a mother plant.

Visa and Master Card transactions are blocked to many locations. I had to call Visa and tell them to quit blocking my card. Now 5 U.S. states are blocked because of credit card/debit card fraud. It IS for your benefit and safety but it is also a major pain in the butt.

I live in the Bay Area and our dispensaries have seeds available. As mentioned, the selection is very limited. Often only carrying a few different strains...most of them not big sellers.

ValleJoereaper, thanks. That's awesome news. But I don't have my card yet. I need to get a note from my phychiatrist saying I am currently being treated for depression and anxiety and bring that to the doctor at cannamed.

Freaking visa. I used a Visa before last year when ordering. Got the card from the same exact bank....essentially the same card. So this is a new thing that the bank is doing.

Herbies should be able to use your visa no problem I do and it works everytime. If not set up a pay-pal and use sea of seeds.

If you don't have the patience to wait a couple days to call your bank, you're not gonna have much luck growing. Any American seedbank is a scam unless they require proof of a med-card.

Wow. Surely I've got this wrong. You guys really can't be customers of a bank that wont let you spend your own money. Can't be the case, as who would stay with such a company?

Sea Of Seeds allows Paypal and they are reputable. Make a paypal account. That should solve your visa problems shouldn't it? Also Many Seed banks except cash or checks always an option

That Blows. I ordered seeds from attitude acouple weeks ago and my card got hacked. Using Sagepay will get your card hacked. Really sucks as I was going to order some more seeds from SoS using paypal. Maybe I'll just have to do a prepaid visa or send them the cash
