Glad mine go through NY though I think I'm still going to hold off for some time to see if things get worse or better. Glad I do have plenty of gear to last me.

Paying 50%?... To be honest I don't think so... More like a dollar or two a seed depending on how popular the company is. If they were paying 50 percent. Look at all the seeds they have in stock from a multitude of different breeders, and what that would cost to keep stocked. it would be an incredible investment, that's why they don't pay a lot in most cases. More like comic books dealers buying back issues from a collector, low pay out high mark up, it's the same strategy you see in a lot of head shops...

You'd think then why would, they sell them to a seed bank then? And not just do it themselves? Well you run up against a wall, you can't sell very many yourself, advertising is costly... So, you mostly have to go to a seed bank and sell volume, if your doing it to make a living... So why not just sell the bud? Well you can still come out better selling seeds, then you can the bud even at a lower rate. Because you can make enough seeds to make more then selling bud would bring from a one plant.

Then after you have flooded the market with your seed, selling to all the banks and whoever else you can. You find out that's still not enough, so you go the route of endlessly releasing new strains. You can't work the strains much because they have to be ready for sale etc... Then that eventually catches up with you, as your strains tend to get worse instead of better from this process.

i'm not pulling these numbers out of my arse m8, i know for a fact that most banks do the 50/ 50 split with the breeders.. i'm not 100% positive about the attitude as idk any breeder personally that vends through the tude, but i don't see why the attitude would work any differently than the other banks that i know a breeder who vends through and only gets 50% of the price of his packs of beans he sells, and the banks get the other half..

but once you count in packaging, sending the beans off to a different country, ect, etc, obviously the breeders aren't seeing any where near the 50% they get from the banks..

Seed banks must pay a lot more now then they use to, if they are giving 50 percent, all I ever received was low ball offers, or the bank wanting the product for free. That's one of the reasons Wonder Seeds just dropped out of the game a long time ago... And if they are, I seriously doubt they are paying for them up front...

I'll tell you what though, I'm going to be releasing some very special product. And while I'm not going to sell it to a seed bank, or try and flood the market with my work. I will contact these seed banks, and ask what, and how they pay, and report back what I find.

There I just mailed the 'Tude and told them who I was, and that I am releasing the Wonder Seeds line soon. And I asked them what they are paying or if they are interested... Let's see what they say :)

I bet the tude has people who monitor these sights and forums and get on here and do a search for "attitude" and they have access to everything that we are saying. I mean if I were a company that was in this game I would want to have someone dedicate a few hours per week trolling grow forums to see what their customers think Bout their service.

Unfortunately I didn't get my email sent in before they closed up shop Friday so I will b waiting for my response Monday and share an update

My last order from OSSC was checked but they didnt take the time to really look down cause the seeds were left and the little folder they sent it in had a magazine in it so they just marked it as a gift and let it go. Though the package did say it was checked in chicago. I didnt get stealth that time either ironically but this time I did so they better come.

My thing with thing isn't the stealth its the guarantee. I would hate to not spend a few extra bucks, and loose 200 in seeds. Even if they get stopped, the only thing I'm out is the time I'm waiting for them to resend!

Just checked my email and got confirmation that my order was resent. I assume that they still have the same beans I ordered because Laura or Jodie didn't say that they were out. Lets see what happens this week. Will keep up to date on the tracking and keep everyone informed.

Is anyone having seeds confiscated anywhere but Chicago? Seems like that's where all the problems are originating. Recently got a tude order through NYC with no problems, in week 2 of veg already. Has anyone been getting snagged through NYC?
