Was definitely a little underhanded, but welcome to modern business "ethics" and practices.

Id even emailed NGR a few weeks ago asking about how many packs they had in. Guy always answers my emails in like 2 hours, never got a response. After that i knew the packs were probably mad limited.

I managed to scoop a pack of Kens candyland v2. So even if i miss out on the possibly imaginary promo packs, im fine with it.
Holy shit dude, I just saw candyland from clone yesterday. OH my god it looks better than the cookies, its super frosty and looks damn good. I want to get in on the candyland now. I couldn't believe it but my buddy got the clone from the GDP collective and then he bought the seeds because he wants his own version.

I WANT :D

I saw that listed on the site, but I wanted the freebies so I ordered at 11:59.

I wonder if the people that didn't get the freebies will automatically recieve the 20% off even though the promo code wasn't entered??


After hearing his business practices and the fact that his website's hosting ends this month I figured it wasn't worth the risk of losing $85.

Good luck to everyone that ordered, hopefully my skepticism will be null
It/he does seem a little underhanded, but I won't lose any sleep over the $85.

Why are people in this industry so sketchy? How hard is it to operate a seed bank and deliver on your promises?? Seems like a simple business model

Its bc they dont report to or answer to anyone. MJ is still mostly illegal (especially stateside). What are ripped off customers suppsed to do? Reveal that they were trying to purchase contaband?

Mj vendors are like pretty girls. Everyone treats them nice and kisses their ass. Eventually they think theyre better than everyone else, and just start doing what they want to since they can get away with it at the end of the day.

That's a very valid point, but just from a business perspective it still doesn't make sense. If someone were to open a stateside seed bank and operate it with integrity they would make an absolute killing! Word would spread like wild fire. Every American based breeder would vend through them, and every perosn that grows weed would give them their business instead of dealing with over seas banks and customs.

So true. Theyd practially have a monopoly, if not a rediculous head start with brand recognition/breeder agreements way before other emerging stateside banks.

Idk man. It doesnt make sense.

I will have nothing to bitch about if I don't get the promotion. They were good to me on my last order. They accidentally sent me the wrong order last time and caught it before I even did. They let me keep the mistake order which was more expensive than my original order and included free seeds with both orders. Plus no $15 dollar shipping charge or $10 guarantee or waiting and wondering for two weeks if my order is going to get taken by customs. My only real complaint is that half of their strains are out of stock.

Many people don't understand the concept of longevity. They want a quick profit NOW! so many idiots out there. Just like in the black market world. I've met plenty of these types of idiots who would rather rip someone off one time for $100 than profit $20 off them of 10+ times.

Also with the legality of growing Cannabis they are at liberty to still act like black market operators. When they rip you off what are you going to do? Go to the police? Now add the anonymity of the internet into the equation and it just makes it 100x easier to rip someone off. It's unfortunate.

Let other people know, and spread the word. I guess that's the only recourse. The only reason I haven't ordered from these guys sooner is because of sketchy shit I keep reading about online. If this order goes sideways I'll join the ranks of unsatisfied customers.

True that. Thankfully we have these online communities to share our experiences because you are right. That is exactly what happens.

The best ones survive the test of time.

Yeah when I saw only 21 were available I figured I would be on the shit end of the stick.
Seedmans black friday promo looks legit but I do not want to buy hoping I get a pack I want for the promo.

I really don't like seedsmans new gig of not letting you know what the freebies are.

"You might get bla blah blah". Fuck that! Tell me what it I'm getting. It's an all together different deal if I were to get a bunch of auto's instead of a free pack of Bodhi or something.

Yeah seriously, I have two autos going right now in my veg tent and though they are cute I don't find them practical in the slightest.

Shout out to NGR. Received my package in the mail today. Not only did I receive the 17 promo seeds, but there was actually a 5 pack (instead of 3) of the Greenpoint GG#4 x Monster Cookies, and an additional 3 pack of Mile High Brothers Haze (Apollo 13 x SSH)...... 22 free seeds for an $85 purchase plus free shipping. Can't beat that!

I will be doing business with them again no doubt

Damn, that was fast. Mine hasn't even been shipped out yet according to the tracking. But my experiences with the post office tells me to ignore the tracking. It will probably be in my mailbox before they even update it.

I live in Michigan, real close to where NGR is located. I received an email on Sunday that the seeds were dispatched....in the mail box yesterday
