Seeds confiscated?

Hey guys. I ordered some seeds from the boutique on Wed. 8/3/11 and still don't have them. They were the Big Bang Auto. Anyhow, the first time I ordered from the boutique, I got them in a week. Does anybody else thing something is going on or is it just me? If they were confiscated wouldn't I get a letter in the mail or something? At the very least, won't the boutique get something in the mail? Any thoughts would be appreciated. :thank you:
I guess all in all, I won't hold one botched or undelivered shipment against the Boutique. Shit happens I guess.

Are they showing up as sent on the website? I had some beans that sat in processing for a while until I sent a pm.

Yes. The very next morning I got an email saying that they were shipped to me. Three weeks seems substantial for anything being shipped lol. But, who knows.

First, it is possible they are still enroute, sometimes the mail can be slow.

Then of course there is the possibility a postal worker recognized them for what they were and decided to keep them for himself.

A good rule of thumb is to never order more than you can afford to throw away, keep in mind that this is still illegal.

Good luck, SOG

I've had 20+ successful orders with Seedbay and SeedBoutique. I don't think I ever didn't didn't receive an order from either one out of all the times I did it.

Definitely give it some more time, it has taken 3+ weeks on occasion for me to get them. Both sites are very dependable.

I'd like to say that I did NOT mean to suggest that I had been cheated by the Boutique because that was't what happened.

The truth is i must have sent the Gypsy 10 e-mails, and some of them were downright nasty, it was my first order ever so I was pretty upset, ...anyway, despite my ignorance, Gypsy answered every e-mail I sent and not once did he return my ignorance in kind but instead he remained proffesionally courteous although he also remained adamant that he couldn't control the mail,

...and while I didn't want to hear it at the time, I finally calmed enough to see the truth in it.

Shit happens man and sometimes it's just your turn, if your beans don't show up, put it behind you and try again, you only need ONE order of quality genetics to set you up and the truth is, i've found some awesome plants among the bagseeds.

Peace, SOG

I agree with you all. Cooler heads prevail. Damn good advice on not overspending someotherguy. I'm cool with it now. I was just impatient. No big deal. There are few things we can control and many others in which we can not. Thanks all for helping me realize this. Cheers! :)

Oh, almost forgot. Thanks again someotherguy for the link on the seed bank reviews. Huge help.

lol, I got a negative rating on this thread from a user. His user name is STAK. On his negative rating note, he says that this topic had no business in the soil grow section and some other gibberish that made no sense. Then I notice he has a total of 5 posts. I'm a soil/seed grower and I really didn't see any place else to place this thread. For future reference, where should I have placed this then? Also, STAK your a total douche bag IMO for giving me any negative comments criticizing any damn thing with 5 posts of B.S. under your belt. :moon:
