No idea. I haven't even been in the Facebook group for many months. I just happened to get the email because I'm on the list.

We have found a new processor, but its a process getting them set up and our timeline is approximately another week, which will put us reopening around the 26th of May or so.
seems were at "or so" since his site is still in maintenance mode sure doesn't look promising , I guess he could of tried letting people send cash or money orders but me being one of those 240 orders that he did not ship there's no way id trust send cash to them . Normally id say their done as no one would trust them but I still see people unaware of what happened and still promoting them as a good seedbank so I imagine they will survive this mess

I concur, something is going on with Greybeard seeds. I've ordered with them successfully for years buty second last order took several weeks to process. I received an email for 50% off sitewide recently and placed a small order December 20 because of the sale. Today (a week later) I emailed Robin Curtiss who is apparently the CEO about my order status as I received an email receipt and my card was billed. Robin started by saying that the "idiots" that redeveloped their site screwed up and then accused me of lying about my order and "how shitty a thing to do" by me. After being sworn at and insulted some more, I asked for a refund but said I'll dispute the charge first thing in morning. The response, "go ahead and I'll slap your a$$ into collections" because you know, I lied about my payment and order that I showed receipts for. I could go on and on for hours but if anybody thinks I'm again being dishonest, reach out. I'll gladly forward all emails to show what a quality human being we are dealing with. In closing, do yourself a favor. DO NOT USE GREYBEARD SEEDS FOR ANY REASON! Seedsman now ships out of Illinois, there's North Atlantic Seedbank as well as many many more. I'm not normally in the interest of publicly slamming somebody but this company is the antithesis of the welcoming community we are trying to cultivate. An order with Greybeard is a slap in the face of growers worldwide. A lousy business is one thing, a lousy person is another issue altogether. Again, if you think I'm being dishonest, I'll GLADLY forward all correspondence to you as proof of this lousy excuse for a person.

I used you buy from them but my last experience was awful. I waited weeks and the order status never changed. I contacted someone through email who got very rude. And after about a month of not receiving my order I washed for a refund. Thankfully I did receive that.
