Quick question about seed banks

[Normakegan]

I hope this is in the right place!!! I live in nc and I'm a little nervous about ordering seeds SO I need help deciding what bank to go threw and what could possibly happen it they catch the shipment! Do I go to jail? Just get the seeds taken or what? Has anyone had seeds shipped to nc or close to it?

If they get snagged it will be at US Customs not a local PO. You will probably go through customs in NY which is good. Highly unlikely you will go to jail, just get a nice letter from customs saying "Nice try, if you want your illegal seeds you are welcome to come and get them".

I also need a way to pay for them! Everyone says don't pay cash! And prepaid cards won't work over seas! Am I going to have to use my debut card?

Customs is the one that will snag your seeds, and they will just take them. I would say that over 90% get through and as far as seed companies you have 3 major suppliers that sell to the US. Attitude, Sea of Seed's and Herbies. All are pretty good, just check out specials, discounts, which Attitude gives 10% off if you use rollitup in the discount box. Get stealth shipping, and you will be good to go.

First off, don't worry. If the ceeds get confiscated ya get a nasty gram. Had some stuff (not ceeds) seized and its nobig deal. Pay for stealth and in the unfortunate event your ceeds are seiseized, the ceed bank will reship them.
Always look up some discount codes for what ever bank you use. I don't bother with prepaid cards and nonsense. Simply use a credit card or debit. No one cares and the charge shows up discreetly

My first order from Herbies got seized by Customs in Chicago; emailed Herbies and they air mailed my next order. Got it in 5 days, use rollitup5 and you get 5% off at Herbies.

The worst that can happen is the letter along with seizure. I think it's just luck of the draw. I had a friend in the Netherlands try to send me some seeds by stealth once and their customs actually caught it, not the US. The letter was in Dutch, but translated into the same story. First I laughed, then I cried. Just my luck.

I just noticed this forum auto-links seeds. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't know anything about sea of seeds.

I think I'm going to go with herbies I can get autos shipped to my friends house for $31.00 seeds and all!!! How are kc brains?

Only options left are money order or credit card for USA.
Money order takes forever, count on a month or more. Plus money order can get lost in the mail, it happens. If you do a money order be sure to keep your receipt stub so you can get a partial refund. Money gram money order charges $15 to process a refund. Credit card is the best option IMHO.

Herbie's and Sea of Seeds are both good. Ali Bongo has free shipping, and I have had no problems with them. I hear good things mainly about KC Brains, Have a pack of KC 45, but have not grown any yet. As far as Ali Bongo stealth, I haven't checked into what they offer, so I can't comment on it. Shipping is free on seed orders so I only order a pack or two at a time and don't get upgraded shipping. Small orders seem to be the way to go lately, just don't get as many freebies.
