1st time w/ attitude

First thoughts searching the internet for a seedbank......

This is my first time using attitude or any other seed source. When choosing who to use, I came here and liked what I saw. Very few complaints from anyone and they were usually resolved due to the guaranteed shipping or the kindness of the staff. From there I went to see what the attitude had for prices and strains. Great selection and decent prices were what I found. I also saw the guaranteed shipping with stealth which was great for "the one's who can't".

I decided to go with attitude based on these reasons and the people at RIU really appreciate what you all do, as do I.

I have not yet received my order, just thought this would be a thorough way to give a 2011 review from a new customers' point of view for new customers.

I ordered my items on April 2nd. Dispatched on April 5th. Processed to US on 7th. This is my "uptodate" tracking status. I say "uptodate" because I know USPS tracking sucks to say the least, not too sure about royal mail though. Seems to be moving quickly, if I get em' by tomorrow or Saturday, all there and in good condition, I will be back every time.

Will post every day until they get here. Like every other new customer of a seedbank, I am worried. But, whether good or bad I'll let you all know my experience.

(Oh, I also need to mention that the payment process was simple and fast. I used a visa giftcard, one allowed outside of the US, and wallah. Freebies were excellent too, I order Sweet Seeds Ganesh Spirit and Flying Dutchmen Skunk #1 and will be receiving 6 freebies along with those 2 5 packs.)

ahhhh coool you got the ganesh spirit that is fire. idk where u are but usually it gets to the east coast in 7-8 days and i've heard west coast like 11-12 days. im looking into the hortilab breeder because of the special they've won some awards but i really wanna try the sour joker. if u dont mind my asking which visa card did u pick? i use cc but ive been scouring all the pharmacies looking for new "accepted outside of us" visa gift cards.

Thanks for responding Tingpoon. Yeah, the GS looked good so I have to try it. I am on the east and today marks the 6th day since order. And as far as updates for today, there are none (as of 1:20pm). Well if you do try the sour joker, let me know how it grew/smoked. I used a visa vanilla gift card. The one in the yellow packaging with a few gifts on the front. It says on back "For use where-ever visa debit cards are accepted" and thats exactly what you want it to say, not "For use with U.S. merchants". It's like 5 bucks for the card and is NOT re-loadable as far as I know. Green dot is another option but not a preferred method by me. You buy as temp. card that you can only pretty much use in the U.S. You will then be waiting on your personalized card which you can use at atms, online, overseas, etc. It isn't my preferred method because it has been almost a month and i still have not received my personalized card (says in FAQ it would only take between 7-10 days). Not to mention the countless complaints I had ran into while trying to find out where the fuck my cards' at.

+rep... And if anyone has any grow tips or suggestions on the Ganesh Spirit it would be more than helpful. Not received seeds yet but I will be growing organically using ingredients from a local nursery, 600 hps flower, 200 watts t5-t8 veg. This will be an all organic grow either a stand alone mix (wateronly) or using teas for feedings. I have never grown a "dank" strain before only regs and I always got males!

Good Post. We need both good and bad stories.

Thank you ...tacobell. Well it's 6:20 not expecting any updates today, now. Tomorrow, the last day of mail this week so we'll see what happens. Would be a nice weekend to get em' on a Saturday (and in 7 days - from order).

When and if they get here, I won't be exposing in any way how they were ship, listed on the site or not. I might be able to post pictures of the breeder packs, I notice a lot of people think they're cool, as do I. Only doing this because it seems some have a problem with it, on site or not.

Anyway, will be hoping for early next week to receive them. You'll know as soon as I do.

It's been roughly a day and a half to 2 days now without an update on the tracking. Mail usually runs about noonish where I'm at, so I'll be hoping for them then, but I'm still betting I won't get em' until the beginning of next week. Will update again as soon as I receive todays mail.

Im in Canada and where I'm supposed to have a tracking number it just says Canada Post and the dispatched date is January 1, 1970. I ordered the same day as you and I'm hoping for early this week as well. I ordered 3 pick and mix fems and got 6 freebies. Can't wait for them to arrive, i'll let you know when I get them tho. And i've heard they arent providing tracking numbers to canada for some reason and I also received an email from the them telling me they couldnt send me the (blank) because it seems to be picked out and stopped often so theyre sending me a (blank) instead. Im hoping i get an extra freebie cause of it. Fingers crossed. Ive ordered from them twice before and was very satisfied. my second order got all the way to the mail sorting station and then just stopped and didnt move. I emailed attitude and told them what was up and within about 3hours i heard back from them saying they would re-ship the whole order immediatly and it got through no problem fairly quickly. One of the UFO's was different but I didnt really care to much.

I've read that the tracking isn't always reliable. I usually get mine in 7-14 days to the west coast...occasionally a little longer.

Things with Attitude seedbank is, their shipping charges are pretty high...if you ask for guaranteed stealth shipping, you'll pay 9-10 more bucks than most of the other seed vendors. Of course, you get their guarantee to replace if your beans don't arrive for some reason (and a t-shirt or coffee mug as well), but with the Attitude seedbank I try to hold off on any smaller orders until I'm ready to place it all as a larger order... just so I don't end up paying a boatload of cash for shipping. Five packs fits into a coffee mug just as well as one pack does.

They do have a good selection, and they've been very reliable for me. I recently placed a small order without the extra cost of the guaranteed shipping. I expect it to arrive any day now, but we'll see. I've never had any problems getting beans from other seedbanks delivered WITHOUT a coffee mug or t-shirt. Usually just shows up in a plain or padded envelope, about the same amount of time (7-14 days).

You might want to also check out sannie's shop (http://www.sanniesshop.com/) for future purchases. His strains aren't available on attitude...and you get a freebie 5-pack (your choice of probably eight or ten available) with every order and free shipping if you order three packs. Again, I don't think you get a guarantee on delivery with sannies...but I've gotten all three of my orders from them with no problems. Haven't gotten a chance to grow any of his strains yet, but I've read many good reviews of his gear.

dude,... for the next days ur gon need patience....trust me i got my seeds from a cuple of places... reserva privada.. next generation... nirvana,... barneys farm... i paid priority mail....i got my seeds mailed to another state,... to my homegirls house...then she delivered them right to my door step ... she is awsome... i had to pay all her expenses,... gas ...food... and i even gave that bitch 100 bucks when she got here so she could go clubbing.... best 100 bucks i ever spent... she got to my app all fucked up and went straight to give a nigga some head... haha i was loving it...

oh n my seeds took 33 days to get there

That's good to know. I like to hear that attitude is being "a man of his word". Yeah, tracking seems to suck no matter where you're at (before this I thought it was only usps). I hope I don't encounter any real problems, this being my first transaction with them. And yea, please let us all know when you get your gifts and how many days it took/condition.

Being patient isn't one of my strongest abilities. I've heard good things about sannies as well. Will probably be checking it out next order, if I don't decide to order a few more strains from attitude. As far as the stealth/guaranteed shipping, I like that. I don't mind an extra 10 dollars for a small amount of peace of mind.

33 days sounds about right to me but thats about how long it took to have my replaced order in my hands. Those are some good patience. It kinda stings a little waiting tho lol. I've never tried sannies but ive been checking it out and been considering it . waiting on my order from the tude at the moment tho. and holding out for the 420 promo. im looking forward to that one.

ive never heard about sannies... i think im stickin with orderin from my seed banks,... since i know they keep thir word...i dont wanna fuck around and order from somewhere else n get ripped off

33 days is too long for me. Well I'm pretty sure that the mail already ran in my neighborhood so it didn't get here in 7 days, will be looking forward to next week. Will give up to date progress from the tracker as I get it. And no, I did not expect it to get here in 7 days, simply trying to record how long it took compared to others. As in, some got in in 8 days, 10, 14, 21, 33, and I've even heard of someone getting them in 6 days. And yea, I know we can figure it by the date, but this was meant to be THOROUGH. Trying to answer any/all questions before they're asked by new customers like myself. Easier. Also, please remember DO NOT talk about shipping methods here, keep it on the distributors site only, some people have a problem with it, be respectful. Not pointing any fingers or anything, just don't.

dint know that dutch....thatnks for the heads up..

No problem. I didnt know until further research of seedbanks. Some people I guess just don't want to give it the extra attention. I can understand that.

i edited my original post lol.

6:50 pm and no updates, not going to expect anything at all until monday-tuesday, let y'all know then.
