I've been buying seeds from Attitude for over 4 years and have never, never had a problem. And I don't use stealth shipping. I did oncee and got an ugly T shirt. I wouldn't worry about customs knoking on your door. I wouldn't have it sent to my mother's house as Athat's pretty chicken shit. Although nothing is going to happen why involve your mother or mother-in law in your persional business. I'm assuming you'readadultifyouhave a wife and children so act like one. If you're really paranoid have them shipped to my house and I'll split the order with you. Attitude is a reputable company with good products. Order.grow,enjoy!

they are sold as novelty . so your good. they have to geminate them and wait to see what they really are . they are not going to do that. they could be apple pear peach plum. coffee seeds. who knows ? strongly suggest ordering from herbies . they are rocking the stealth on the shipping . attitude keeps sending that stupid tee shirt or candy. its gets nailed almost every time, I got nailed one from there. attitude . lets put it this way if I had to bet my life on shipping from any where, I would call herbies. that's how impressed I really was.

Look here's the deal you are one small peaon in a great war. Yes there is a chance of getting caught bring seeds into the us, but it about the same chance as crossing the street and getting hit by a car. First off get a prepaid card, second order from a reputable comany....i.e. attitude, don't be a fool and opt out for the stealth shipping...pay for it....never ship seeds were you are growing big mistake. That's what Johnny Law wants plants, not some measly old seeds. If you get a letter from the post office saying you got a package to come and get...fuck it chuck it up as a loss and move on. Lastly if seeds do get caught in customs, the only repercussion you have to fear is a pretty pink slip letting you know that the importation of cannabis seeds in the us is illegal. No law enforcement is going to was dollars to bust some trying to import seeds, now investigations of possible grow site is real, hence why we don't send see to where we are growing. Follow these rules and you will have great harvests for many years. By the way been ordering from attitude seed bank for 3 years and have yet to have an order seized. A+++ service with freebies everytime you order from the, and me likes the freebies.

PS. DON'T TELL ANYONE YOPU ARE GROWING MARIJUANA, WIFE INCLUDED. YOU FORGOT YOUR WEDDING ANIVERSERY AND NOW SHE IS PISSED AT YOU THINGS GET WORSE, NOW SHE WANTS TO LEAVE NEXT THING YOU KNOW THE LAW AND CYS IS AT YOUR DOOR. TRUST NO ONE, IF YOU CAN'T KEEP A SECRET HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ANYONE ELSE TO. THE PEOPLE YOU THINK ARE SAFE ARE THE PEOPLE YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT. TRUST ME I HAVE BEEN THERE AS WELL AS MANY OTHER JUST TURN ON THE 5 O CLOCK NEWS.

Pretty sure it's only illegal once germinated, obviously you have no intention of germination and you're merely a collector of "EXOTIC NOVELTY BIRD SEED".

> "vendor x" can sell you cannabis seeds legally for the use of fishing bait additives, as dietary supplements, as luxury bird food or as novelty souvenirs.

Maybe somebody knows better than me, but isn't it the thc that is illegal? You can buy cbd from Amazon these days. Seeds aren't "the marijuana" yet, they are just seeds.
I've had no issues. I'd recommend reading some of the breeder threads here, seeing how stoked people are on what they are receiving, and growing, and order from the seedbank those folks are using.

It's also legal here, so idgaf. Just want good genetics delivered on time. The legal states are making this all very legit, just the feds bs that still makes transactions weird.

ya im up for it, im a very cautious person, not to the point where im paranoid about everything i do, but to the point where im looking out for my self. Also, spending $270 for an O every 2 weeks is really hurting my wallet, so i thought this would be a great way to save money and its always rewarding to see a baby seed turn into high quality beautiful bud.

Buy from a US seed bank, avoid customs.

I buy exclusively from ILGM. They're based in Amsterdam.

I use my regular Visa card. They disguise the sale as an import toy and ship them in a plain envelope, hand addressed to me.

It looks like a letter from an aunt.

Nobody cares. Nobody looks. Even if they did it wouldn't matter because it wouldn't come back to me. It for all intents and purposes is an unsolicited letter sent by someone trying to get me in trouble.

Want security and plausible deniability?

Buy from ILGM.

IMHO if in US, buy in US. If across the pond, buy across the pond. If feeling brave and across the pond, buy from US and take chance. Hardly hear of any seizures stateside of beans. And man, some of the banks across the pond have stories all over per seizures. Plus the genetics of US is better, I think.

If you're in an illegal state and order from a legal state seed bank and get caught, you face state and federal charges.

If you order from overseas, you face nothing at all if customs finds the shipment.

What's more, after clearing customs, shipments are not inspected by state stations.

Your odds of getting in trouble ordering from overseas is essentially zero.

Your only real chance of getting in trouble as an American in an illegal state is ordering from American seed banks.

how do you get caught. I've never heard of it stateside yet, other than Greenpoint. And they didn't go after the buyers, they spanked the seller. Almost like just seizes the seeds and sending the form letter from Homland. If you order from overseas, you get what you get. Right now its just too easy to get genetics online in US or by email, etc. You point is theoretical not realistic. Sorry. On paper its prolly true. Talk to someone that has lived in multiple no mmj states and gotten seeds for years from stateside seed banks no problem. Right now, there is not much of a risk, unless completely stupid, of getting caught getting beans from US if live in US. You are spreading fear where none is needed

It's highly unlikely in either case, and I've not heard of it yet either.

But let's say for instance that you live in Georgia and ordered from Colorado and somebody at the post office discovered the shipment. Well, what you're going to have is a state to state destination. They're going to know exactly where the package came from and where it's going to.

At that point, if they were going to do anything at all, they'd let the package go on to it's destination: you.

Once that package was delivered, Federal Authorities would probably wait a day or two then serve you with a search warrant and go from there. They'll find your shit. You'll be charged with transporting across state lines among probably several other things and be offered a deal if you rat out who sold you the seeds. Then of course they'd raid the place that sold you the seeds.

Everybody would get it right in the ass.

But when you order from overseas, it goes to international customs first. If it's caught there, they're not permitted by law to let it go any further. They wont really have any way to go after who sent them because all they're going to have is a nation of origin. (In my case, Amsterdam, where it's legal.)

It ends right there. Nothing happens to anybody.

If it clears international customs, that's it. It's not examined by anybody else because there's no need to.

It's just like visiting a country. If you go through customs when you land at JFK, you don't have to do that again when you get to Atlanta. You do it once and that's it - nobody cares or looks after that.

This makes no sense.. Inbound international mail is wayyy more likely to be inspected than domestic.. Packages can make it past customs and still be stopped by the USPIS along the way fyi.. and the whole "theyre not permitted by law to let it go any further" is a bunch of bullshit. If that were the case there wouldnt be the fentanyl stings where they deliver and pop.

If they can charge you for state-line crimes domestic, they can charge you with a importing contraband.. they're not doing either at the time but your logic is just a little wonky imo
