seed order problem

I've been tracking my seed shipment since it was ordered. It made it from UK, landed in Chicago, and now it hasn't moved for 3 days. Is this a normal delay do you think, or did it get nabbed?

After I did some digging I have learned that this is a reoccurring problem for anyone who has anything going through this facility. The Chicago ISC is apparently notorious for holding packages at their facility for days, even weeks, before being shipped. In some cases these packages just disappear. This just isn't seeds, just packages in general. Not good for my morale.

Why order from overseas banks? So many great american banks that deliver in 2-3 days with no customs or bullshit.

There's no legal course for overseas banks. I know it's ass backwards but you can get into serious trouble for seeds mailed within the states.

I do know if this goes south and I loose out on my purchase then I'll mark it up as a learning experience and look for some good banks here in the states.

3 days is nothing in Chicago. Ive had orders sit there for up to a week...That being said, you could get the green tape, but if you purchased the guaranteed delivery like you should've they'll keep on sending until you recieve so long as the bank is legit.

I strictly order from in state banks now as theyre a lot cheaper, faster, less hassle and all usually have really good customer service. Security seems like somewhat of an issue, but i only pay in cash to banks with good reviews. Ive ordered from around 5 different in state banks now..

So far So good

Sweet. Yeah I'm just worried and impatient at the moment. I have the guaranteed delivery. It's from Gorilla seeds. Haven't heard anything bad about them but it isn't their fault if it goes missing anyway. Looks like I'll just play the waiting game for now.

im kind of right there with you tbh. Put in my first order with seedvault this past weekend and am praying they hit the mailbox today.

Its a mix of really wanting the particular strains i ordered with a little anxiety of trying a new bank, but im sure theyll come through. Seem to have good reviews.

Either way its nice not having to worry about customs and waiting 2-3 sometimes even 4 weeks to get seeds. As well as pay a bunch of shipping and stealth charges.. if they arrive today it'll had taken 2 days, tomorrow 3, and Thats something i can deal with :blsmoke:

Yes, they usually just send it out a day or two after they receive the order.
Great! This is good to hear. Seedvault has so much Bodhi, only other place i know of that carries all those crosses are great lakes genetics and as trustworthy as the owner may be he will never be getting a copy of my DL while im in an illegal state. Its just not happening..

So long as everything goes smooth they'll (sv) be my go to for my next few orders. Im a huge fan of not putting any info on a server that may fall into the wrong hands, seedvault is definitely keeping it smart doing the order form.
