[7eastgenetics]

@7eastgenetics Hey guys - any possibility of adding UPS/DHL type service to our neck of the woods?

its possible but last time i looked it was outrageously expensive. and when i tested it, was immediately flagged by customs

No worries, thanks for letting me know

Looks like the resend just past customs I was a little nervous as it went through Sydney again. Hopefully have it in my hands by the end of the week

Thank you to our forum sponsor @7eastgenetics for being top sorts with helping me out with the re-send after the customs bust on the first run. It arrived safely today and I am thrilled. Great service and much appreciated

Last one of mine that got stopped ( not 7 east I got everyone from them) they opened it took the seeds out put a naughty boy letter in and sent it on its way. I tracked it at smoko to see where it was at and it said through customs I was cheering. Got home next day and it was there ripped it open and was crushed. I'd preffere it to never clear than thinking I've got em. I had the shits for days.

That happened with one of my orders. Checked tracking, got super pumped and when I checked had a letter from Canadian border forces instead lol.

Resend was fine but I know the feeling of broken dreams.

I agree. If I got a letter I might have got a lot more spooked. Using a safe address sure, but even so. The first order still says it's at Sydney 5 weeks ago. In the past 12 months I've either sent myself or ordered 12 times and only once got snagged by Aus customs. So the odds still seem pretty good

Yeah so were The Schutzstaffel and the guards at auschwitz. Doesn’t mean they aren’t cunts.

I can understand from a bio security POV, but the seeds are never grown, they’re just collected for nostalgic purposes?

Mine are all safely in my fridge for deep storage.

I did a stint 6 years ago with the state government due to a biosecurity issue - a bug had got in "Giant Pine Scale" and was getting into the local timber industry (or that was the concern). We drove around scouting for infections, taking samples and the like. I have a fair appreciation for biosecurity, but this isn't the primary reason they are blocking seeds.

I'd skip on both of them. Ive heard the reviews are fake and they'll decline/delete negative feedback.
Someone on one of the Aussie Reddit subs recently grew out CG autos and found they had plants that were pretty much ditch weed ruderalis. So I would absolutely avoid them both (those 2 sites are suspiciously similar) and become a community member to get proper strains/seeds made from the contributors here
