I ordered the 4th or 5th and was sent on Monday the 6th. It got here on the 17th, from tracking though I could see that it was shipped fast by the seller. USPS on the other had sent the package all over the north east and it should have only gone south from NYC. It was packaged very stealthy and both of my packages did not even get opened by the customs. Packaged great and seeds look very big and healthy...

So my Seedsman order finally made it... Unscathed from the dirty hands of customs! I'm guessing the weather definitely had something to do with this order being delayed and my Attitude order going to LA and not NY. I forgot that I actually got the guaranteed delivery with the book, not the t-shirt like I previously posted, shirts were sold out. I will say though, I'm confident that I could order 20 more times with Seedsman and never have customs look twice at the package. I also have nothing but confidence in Attitude. (other than their mix up)
This weekend I emailed them about it and I got an email response from Jodi yesterday morning. Sent them more details and pictures showing what I got yesterday afternoon. This morning I had an email telling me that I can send the seeds back and get everything, including shipping, refunded. I'd rather just keep them... I tried asking them to just hold one pack for me(in case it sold out) and I would place another order, but that was the response I got. Oh well, will still gladly order from them and maybe something crazy will come out of those beans I got.
Cheers and Beers!

***UPDATE*** 1/21/14
Seedsman Arrived today!!! According to the tracking info it arrived at ISC Los Angeles on 1/15 and processed through Los Angeles on 1/17 and then made its way to me. I think the package would have arrived yesterday if it had not been a US holiday Martin Luther King Day.
Attitude - Arrived today!!! According to the tracking info it arrived at ISC Los Angeles on 1/16 and processed through Los Angeles on 1/19 and then made its way to me.
To completed an oversees transaction of this nature in seven business days (10 total days) is excellent service in my opinion. Both companies were very responsive, did a great job in processing my order quickly and accurately, communicated well, and shipped in a very reasonable amount of time. The stealth was okay on both accounts, but I have seen better...
Seedsman Original Order
TGA Subcool seeds - Jillybean
Seedsman Freebies
Sleestack x Skunk #1 Regular - 5 Reg Seeds
White Widow Feminised 2 Seeds
Attitude Original Order
Pyramid seeds - Anesthesia
Bodhi seeds - White Lotus
Attitude Freebies
FEMINIZED UFO #1 Dinafem Seeds White Widow - 1 Seed
FEMINIZED UFO #2 Dinafem Seeds Original Amnesia AUTO - 1 Seed
FEMINIZED UFO #3 Dinafem Seeds Powerkush - 1 Seed
FEMINIZED UFO #4 Dinafem Seeds Critical + AUTOMATIC - 1 Seed
Sensi Seeds Jack Herer - 2 Seeds
Sensi Seeds Super Skunk - 1 Seed
Sensi Seeds Skunk #1 Automatic - 1 Seed
Sannie's Shop I checked on the progress of my payment to Sannie's Shop sent via USPS Registered Mail... So far it has made it to New York...
So to summarize...
Attitude - Confirmed 1/11, Processing 1/12, Shipped 1/14, Received 1/21
Herbies - Confirmed 1/11, Processing N/A, Shipped 1/16
Seedsman - Confirmed 1/11, Processing 1/13, Shipped 1/14, Received 1/21
Sannie's Shop - Confirmed 1/11, Payment sent via USPS Registered Mail 1/13
I expect that my package from Herbies will be here in the next day or so... If I don't see it soon, I will contact Herbies for a tracking number...
I will keep you posted...
Peace,

Glad to see you got your beans!
At lease Attitude offered to work with you... Screw-up are inevitable in business. Many times what separates a good company from a bad company is how they deal with problems... Run and hide or deal with them directly... Attitude seems to want to deal with them. It may not have been the solution you wanted but at least they were willing to make you whole.

Kudos to you mate for doing this test run, so many people bag seed companies and makes you wonder who to trust, I personally use the tude as theyve never let me down.
It looks like they all try to do the right thing which is cool.

Thanks Bro. When I started buying seed a few years ago I was a little more than uneasy about stuffing a few hundred bucks in an envelop and sending it overseas in the hope that someone on the other end would ship me the seeds that I wanted. I am sure that there are a lot of people that have faced that same situation and felt the same way. So if I can point people in the right direction and make it easier for them to pull the trigger, then I have done a small service to my fellow man... And I need all of the good karma I can get
Peace.

Attitude, Herbies and Seedsman all did a great job in handling my orders. Attitude and Seedsman seem to be running on more modern platforms that allow them a higher level of customer service. Attitude and Seedsman both sent email re-confirming my orders and notifying me that my order was processing and provided tracking numbers for their packages, Herbies did not. Attitude and seedsman also have members portals where I could check on the status of your order, see past orders etc., Herbies did not. Attitude and Seedsman also proceessed and shipped my order two days quicker than Herbies, not a huge deal...
In the end I give Attitude 5 Stars, Seedsman – 5 Stars and Herbies 4 Stars and based on this experience can recommend that others do business with any of these companies. They each performed above my expectations and I am very happy with all of them.
Attitude *****
Seedsman *****

Glad to here you got your Herbies order. Mine never showed so they are resending. Customer service has been very good. I decided to place a second order with Attitude and it cleared customs in less than a week. Should have my order in a few days. Hopefully both orders in tact. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

***UPDATE*** - 1/29/14
Sannie's Shop - I received two emails at midnight letting me know that my order had been completed and shipped. The second email contained the tracking number and info. So it took 16 Sixteen Days for my registered letter to get there... Not the fastest route for sure... As a note, Sannie's accepts Bank Transfers (wires), Cash in Envelop and Credit Cards Via Western Union... So there are faster ways to make payments and I probably chose the slowest of them all... So Sannie's gets a "A" for shipping my order upon receipt of payment...
Sannie's Shop - Confirmed 1/11, Payment sent via USPS Registered Mail 1/13, Received/Processing 1/29, Shipped 1/29

Update on Attitude order - placed on 1/16, shipped on 1/17, arrived on 1/27. This one went through NY. No signs of inspection. I purchased guaranteed shipping but did not bother with stealth delivery.
Herbies order reshipped on 1/24. It shipped standard with no tracking so will probably take a little longer.

Cool! Glad to see you got your gear. Would like to know how your Cinderella 99 turns out. I would love to find a good Cinderella 99. I am running BC Bud Depot Cinderella 99 right now but would prefer to find a more reliable supplier...Update on Attitude order - placed on 1/16, shipped on 1/17, arrived on 1/27.

I plan to start a C99 and a PE grow in the next couple of days. I'll let you know how it turns out. Just in time for summer! Might start a journal if I have time. I haven't grown either of these strains so it should be fun.
I'm running both strains right now and they're doing great. Currently at day 36 of flower and they have certainly packed on weight and I think they'll be done in another 2 to 2.5 weeks. The smell is strOng!

Glad to hear. Hopefully I will have the same success.
Herbies order arrived today. I couldn't be happier. They reshipped no questions asked. Reshipped on 1/24 and arrived on 2/3. I won't be needing beans anytime soon. Time to plant. I personally would recommend several small orders to several different companies rather than one big order. If something happens to one of your orders you are not stuck waiting a month without anything. The standard air mail option seems to be faster and less likely to be checked as well. Just my 2 cents. YMMV.
Thanks for the thread. Hope it helps others.

Just coming back in here to say that Seedsman is awesome! Placed three separate orders in January for the Bodhi promo and damn I've racked up some beans. My first order took 15 days due to the "polar vortex." I placed a second order the day I opened the first, this one made it here in 7 days. My third order was placed last Thursday and got it today, 6 days. I believe that's the quickest shipment I've gotten except maybe my first Attitude order. Nothing but great results from Seedsman, my favorite bank now.
Cheers
