Considering they say the "White Widow" strain is

The white widow marijuana strain is the strongest weed in the world.
I don't think they know what they are talking about...white widow may have been the "strongest" around 1995...but no where near now...

Wouldn't trust them. Looks like a person from high school or even middle school that took web page design slapped that together and I know this because I've taken basic web page design. They are either like BC Seeds where they put BS titles on their beans and take pics that they found or grown on the strain that they are using the pic of to sell it or it can be a sting sight.

I just found out about them today...why? Because I was on Green House Seeds Co site (in the Netherlands) looking for their seeds. They don't ship to North America, but had a list of official distributors in Canada and GTASeedbank being one of them, so they must be legit. GHS is a major seed supplier, no?

Anyways, I'm only a 10 min drive away from them so I'm going in there within the next couple weeks. Beats taking the risk of shipping :) Walk in, pay cash, go home and germ.

They are VERY legit... Greater Toronto Area Seedbank... dipshits... They've been around for at least 10 years and play the middleman for other seed companies. You will get alot of Canadian breeders and older strains as well as the newer stuff from companies you are used to seeing. Go in, take some pics, post back and let us know.

Upon further research, I'm beginning to think it's not legit and I will not be going there.

I was looking at some Barney's Farm seeds and came across a few things that have me concerned. #1, there are only 3 official distributors of Barney's Seeds in Canada and they are not one of them. There's one in Toronto, one in Niagara and the other is in Montreal. #2, the prices for Barney's seeds are $15-25 cheaper (pack of 5), then the legitimate distributors. Add these 2 together and I smell fraud. Sure you will get seeds, but I can't see them being the seeds you order. I'm sure they "package" their own selections of seeds into your order with Barney's packaging on the outside. I tried to email Barney's directly to ask them about this place, but their email is down at this time.

I mean, they are across the street from the Pacific Mall, which is a well known place for fraudulent activity (knock off clothing, burned movies/still in theatre, etc). In my newspaper, seems there is a bust in that mall once a month. I'm going with my gut on this one and I'm staying away.

This was the place Barney's Farm listed in Toronto was their only distributor.

i think theyre legit,simply because they do list some strains as out of stock.normally the dodgy ones have everything in stock,when all the other legit seedbanks dont.
plus GG seems to know what he's talking about.

Oh, I thought GG was referring to Green House Seeds as being legit (which they should be as they are a seed supplier overseas)...but to Greater Toronto Area SeedBank, he called them dipshits.

If they are a middleman for other Canadian seed companies, then how can they be so much cheaper than the other official distributors. They would have to buy the seeds from them so their cost would be higher than the official ones. I'm a national sales manager for a music distribution company so I know how this stuff works (we are a middleman) ;) It just doesn't add up right.

the advertise in high times all of the time, and hightimes even has them listed as one of the best seedbanks in the world.. they're an older co, and some of their prices are effing crazy, but they're very legit..

Go with your gut.. you asked for answers.. Youve recieved them.

GTA Seed bank is a good source.... but its YOUR MONEY! do what you feel you must.

Thanks for your input guys. I think just out of convenience (sacredseed is downtown and more of a pain to get to), I'll stop in and make a small purchase as a test, since you guys seem to know about this place. I'll put faith in you :)
