I did a order on Seedsman over Black Friday and they sent out my seeds and arrived in ISC NY on (11-27-17)
and have not updated since... Not sure if its because of the holiday or if customs got them or what, kinda sucks as this is my second purchase ever, the first was on another site and everything was fine :(

^ Does this mean it passed through customs or? I asked a friend of USPS and all they knew as this was Customs and said nothing more :/


Has anyone else ordered from them over the weekend and got theres or went pasted customs and on the way yet?

I've found that when I have a package that's only been in custom for three days, the best option is to call the post office and tell them that you have seeds which need to be grown, so they should expedite the process.

Might buy a pound of tomato seeds just to see if they will pass customs.

All of that means they received it and processed it.

Origin Post is Preparing Shipment

That means that the station that is going to send it out to the post office that will eventually send it to you is preparing to ship it on down the line, but they haven't yet.

Normally, it will be sent the next day or two after that notice. So it probably left there on the 28th or 29th. You also have to remember the heavy loads on mail this time of year. If you don't have it by Monday of next week, then odds are it was nabbed.

It's sent by Registered Mail (Stealth Shipping) so idk if that has something to do with it.

i'm still new to all this as i know i can't control whatever happens but i'm sure i feel the way everyone else did the first time or two they ordered them. lol

@TacoMac Does this means it been through customs already?

Google says.
What is ISC in New York?
ISC=International Sorting Center. That's the USPS sorting center to which the mailpiece went to be processed. It isn't a Customs plant, but a Postal processing facility.
