So I ordered some customs lugs for a set of wheels on a car I'm building and the package has been sitting at our best friends the Chicago sorting facility for three weeks now, so now I'm on their "Hold and open every package this guy orders" list, lovely! Anyone else find that after getting their seeds snagged now everything you package has to sit there?

Yup I have had 3 orders siezed in the past year. One even wrote on the inside of the empty seed package "hi" with my name written and an upsidedown smilie face. Pretty creepy. Now I just order all my beans from 1 of my 5 or so sources within these borders.

Forgot to mention I had an ecu module for a skidoo sent over to sweeden to be reprogrmed and modified. Yeah... Sat in customs for a month and they clearly opened it.

The funniest thing I've found about this whole Chicago debacle is that one of the Guys who got a commercial growers license under Illinois law is growing out over 5000 seeds currently... That's not an exaggeration... At first I was like "damn this guys poppin like 2000 seeds..." Then I found out that's just a small part of his grow lol.. It's on Instagram il find my phone in a little bit and find his name... It's pretty comical... He's definitely got a certain look about him too.. His hair is pretty "high and tight" and I noticed he's a fan of oakleys and he's got a rubber banded athletic watch... Not enough to be damning but I got a vibe off him...

Chicago customs ruined it for me. It started taking 3-4x of attitude mailing me packages before I'd get them.
I've had personal notes from those bastards too.
I probably only do a few seed orders a year now.
We will see how many seeds in lose in this divorce. I may need to make a few dozen orders this next year. lmao

It only took one of those same exact green-tape pkgs w/ the enjoy your coffee message and squiggly frown face, a few years ago, to kill the whole overseas shipping for me. I never even followed up of my guarantee, game over.

appears the new places in the u.s. and michigan have begun to develop plenty of resources for us humble growers to grab a new set of beans here and there. locally, this is the new way.

I changed my name and address and stopped using stealth and voila! I got my seeds, but this crap is dumb. There stopping every package I get? has to be some law against this

Wish I knew someone oversees that I could have them put a note in my packages like " Haha, we sent the seeds through with a different name butthole!" :bigjoint:
