Hey guys first post I'm in the great state of ak figured this would be a good first post since I have ordered from both this month as well except had opposite outcome lol.

ordered from herbies got my package in 7 days was pleased.

ordered from the tude for the October promo went with the mugs since I'm a coffee drinker. BOTH order tracking stopped in san fran and the tracking did not move my order was dispatched on the 3rd took 18 days to get One BROKEN MUG. Fucking customs asshole. And the other has still not yet arrived its not yet been 21 buisness day for that order.

Sent the tude an email I had the guarantee and they already are shipping a new and my experience was great since one of my strains was sold out they let me get another starin and I got to keep the originals promo freebies!

Overall very happy with the tude as well hopefully my reship will be here in a week

Also as a side note I ordered from NGR few days ago and my package should be here Monday if you like I can post a report.

ordered a pack of RD cornbread to test his service.

As of yet I havent had any probs save one . He is very good about responding to emails..... But his two word answers kill me. But I heard its a 1 man show and Mabey he doesn't like email? Haven't had to talk to him yet so I don't know what his personality is like.
We will know by tomorrow or the next day tracking works.

if all goes well this guy might be another option his prices were better shipping was free and no customs but I have heard neg things but so far so good.
if all is well I will be ordering some norstar genetics to try. Sorry for the long winded post.

I wish i worked for attitude, I'd have as many seeds as i like then. Im a michigan native, Im just sharing my experience, i hold no grudges towards herbies because my package was insured and i hear a lot of great responses and reviews about them. It may have just been the luck of the draw, I'm bashing no way like the title says im clearly just telling you guys my experience, i have pictures of both packages if you guys would like to see. Both ordered to michigan, I just feel attitude did a much better job as far as stealth. If herbies can resend my package without incident i wouldnt mind ordering from them. I actually like there auto flowering section a little better than attitudes. Im hoping to order the heavyweight fast and vast strain if everything goes right. but if attitude is hiring and u can apply from the states let me know lol.. i wouldn't mind working for a seed bank, im sure they make a killing with the over priced seeds they sell.
he cant work for attitude because he called me an idiot...that wouldn't be good business sense would it because I could spread the word in my country and attitude would get less sales than they could have,,,,so no he doesn't work for attitude..my opinion only

RIGHT heres my bitch....
Ive no problem with with you reviewing seed banks etc but I DO have a problem with you describing the stealth measures taken by herbies .....WHY ?
Because if I have recieved 3 orders from herbies in less than 14 days each time and all came through 100% then I dont appreciate someone coming on here and revealing some of the methods used by the seed bank.
By all means review the companys but dont spoil it for the ppl who are getting there orders sent through with no delays or customs inteference.
Sometimes its where you live that can be the killer when ordering and we dont need ppl letting the world know all the details.
i agree with this... i have gone back into the op and removed the details of the shipping method..
sure, anyone can order their own beans and see how they come for themselves, but why bother when people post the methods all over the internet for who ever has a computer to see them??
not trying to be a dick, but stealth won't be stealth for very long if every person who makes an order goes online and blabs their mouth about the stealth packaging imvho..

yep that's right...I wasn't trying to start a drama here ive got more stresses outside riu to worry about petty shit.i just like the idea that stealth is stealth and no need to put it out there as the obvious regardless of what customs already know about these deliveries.The method used gets my beans into my country..thats all that matters to me.

You cant be serious, you dont think theres other threads with the same information? there are hundreds. Im not trying to be a dick about anything either i just dont feel its important. My beans were flagged. Meaning it wasnt to stealthy, you dont think they didnt keep a record of how they were sent? Im sure they did. If stealth stops being stealthy it wont be my fault, seed banks will just have to use a new method of sending. The uk makes way to much money off of the us. If its that big of a deal ill delete the thread. You can easily look up youtube and see 13 year olds unpacking there herbies or attitude orders and displaying everything. This information is already out there guys. Im just being honest. Go to youtube and type in "Herbies package arrival" and just look at all the videos that pop up, people have been doing this for years.. Its not anything new.

I've ordered from herbies several times in the past couple of months and that doesn't sound like their packaging method.

Even their website says how it will be shipped and beads are not involved at all

Btw, did the seeds come in original breeder packages using attitudes non-stealth option?

Read a little more careful with herbies. Beads? I don't know but I have been having a lot of dreams lately.

Hello, im new to the group but i wanted to post some information with you guys. It is October 25th, 2014 4:45pm.

I've browsed the webs for days trying to figure out the best and most reliable place to order seeds from. After countless hours of searching i came across ATTITUDE SEED BANK and HERBIES. I couldnt decide which i wanted to go with so i decided to order from both and see who had the stealthiest order, who shipped the fasted and which had the best seeds.

ATTITUDE SEED BANK

I ordered from ATTITUDE SEED BANK on October 11th, 2014 (Saturday). Shortly after purchasing my first seeds ( 4x White Widow X Bid Bud, 2 freebies 1 Vanilla kush, 1 Chocoloco) i was sent a email verifying that my transaction had been completed.

October 12th (Sunday) I received a email from ATTITUDE SEED BANK stating that my order has been changed to processing and would be dispatched in up to 3 days.

October 13th (Monday) My order was dispatched, I was sent a email confirming that it was dispatched and also reassured with the tracking number.

October 21st (Tuesday) I recieved my package from ATTITUDE SEED BANK. Only 8 days had passed since first placing my order, i was surprised on how quick the order came.

edited by racerboy to remove details of STEALTH SHIPPING methods for obvious reasons

All seeds look nice and healthy, Only issue was i was missing 1 seed. I ordered 4 White Widow X Big Bud and only 3 came in the packaging. I emailed attitude and they promptly replied and said that with my next order they would send me another and also apologized for the inconvenience.

I RATE MY EXPERIENCE WITH ATTITUDE 5 OUT OF 5 STARS.
SPEED - 5-5
STEALTH 5-5
CUSTOMER SERVICE 5-5
PACKAGING 5-5

This is my first experience with them so take that into consideration. I will be ordering from them again.



HERBIES

I placed a order with HERBIES October 13. ( 5 Vision Ak-49, 1 Freebie Delicious Bubble Cheese)

The next day I received a email from HERBIES HEAD SHOP stating that my order has been dispatched.

I also recieved a email stating "
Your order #000000 has now been dispatched by Royal Mail International Airmail. Please note no signature is required on delivery.

Unfortunately due to current problems with tracked mail not arriving we have sent your package by standard Airmail, this does not affect your guaranteed delivery and your package is fully insured.

Please note that payment on your credit/debit card statement will be to HOCUS POCUS.

Royal Mail Airmail usually takes 5-10 working days to arrive. Please note that there can be delays to delivery times which we do have to take into account, but please contact us if your order #000000 hasn't arrived by 06/11/2014.

Best Wishes,
Herbie"

I was kinda disappointed that i couldn't track my package but i figured it shouldn't matter as long as the package is received.

10 days went by, I didnt receive any further emails from HERBIES, i was starting to worry.

Saturday October 25th, 2014 I received my package. 12 days later.
I noticed when going to fetch my package from the mail box there was a green lable on the front of it reading "EXAMINED BY US BORDER AND CUSTOMS PROTECTION". There was no letter inside so i didnt worry to much, i just knew that my package had been seized by customs.

After opening the package and looking at the contents i already knew why the items were seized.

once again, edited by racerboy to remove details of stealth shipping methods..

Ive contacted customer service politely, ive also attached pictures to the email. Im waiting to hear from them now. Ill keep you guys updated.

I would rate HERBIES a 1 out of 5 stars from my personal experience.

SPEED 2-5
STEALTH 0-5
CUSTOMER SERVICE N/A
PACKAGING 0-5

The funny thing is, I hear tons of people bashing ATTITUDE SEED BANK saying there this and that and they dont have good seeds but honestly all of my seeds have successfully germinated. All but the one that i didnt recieve. Even the freebies. I hear a lot of threads saying herbies for sure but herbies didnt fall through on this one. I dont know if it was bad luck or bad timing but herbies just didnt come through, I honestly feel if the packaging was a little better and they hadnt had used beeds then maybe it would have come but the beeds made it obvious, especially if someone has been caught up before using the beed tactic. Attitudes shipping was grate. It was perfectly contained and honestly the way the seeds were packed you could never tell that there were seeds in there. So two thumps up to attitude. I will be ordering from them again.


*****UPDATE*****

Herbies has offered to resend the package free of charge, They said they would be unable to insure the second package so i either take the refund now or have them resend it. You guys have all given great reviews for herbies so im placing my trust in you guys and asking them to resend it once more. Wish me luck!

Good luck!

I didn't see anything on Herbies about guaranteed delivery? Not offered?

I have never ordered from them before. If there is no guarantee, kudos for them offering a refund/re-delivery. I myself would have taken the refund and tried elsewhere LoL. I just wouldn't have the balls to try my luck a there a second time. Let us know how it turns out. Hopefully customs doesn't catch the next one.

Yes they insure it. It says so when u choose the higher shipping amount, im hoping all goes well. I asked them to send it under a different name also.

I've ordered from the Tude several times and always got my order, once it took an extra wk or so. Earlier this month I tried Herbies for the 1st time, because they had Bay Dream and the Tude didn't. Arrived 10 working days later with no problems. I also liked the free seeds that Herbies was offering. I have never been thrilled with the freebies I've gotten from the tude.

Hey walter hopefully in a few hours my package from NGR is coming. I'll let you know how that goes.
So far to my limited exp.
HERBIES=higher seed price at the gate but they dont charge as much on shipping.( If you get a bigger order it might not matter as their prices are high)
You also dont have "to buy" something to get the guarantee.

Attitude= lower prices, good guarantee, although id much rather just pay for it and not have to buy some crap. Like If said you spend enough shipping is free with discount. Also if you buy on the right promo you can get a ton of strains .

I like to buy small packs and see if its interesting then ill go pheno hunting

NGR = cheapest seed price. No customs. The guy emails you same day or the next.still waiting so well see how it goes I've heard good and bad. If good ill probably order some norstar

Don't worry I wont say how he ships but ill let you know if its stealth.
Should be able to get it this afternoon.
