it appears times are getting harder, mine arent getting through lately, and i've heard they've done alot of work in that department too, wonder whats gone on.

Could be your local post office, I imagine they would have more time to examine the letters than the big mail sorting dopot's.
If you have had a few not getting through lately then that's more than random, there is something going on personally with your situation, rather than the random customs snagging of the occasional one.
Me thinks anyway.
You could try taking out a post office box in the next suburb, costs $90 for the full year but that starts from april, so if you get one now they will only charge you about half that.
Would help you also if leo has put a mail intercept on your address.

Hi ya terihat welcome to ICC forums. I just tried Registered for the first time & it worked perfectly for me. It was a little unsettling going in to PO to sign for it, but no problems. It arrived in 4 days Ire to Aus, some White Berry & Northern Lights, old school & Chemdog.
Considering my last order was lost & found 6 weeks later, I think due to my constant e-mailling to PS, after 15 or 20 e-mails he re-checked my order & found it had been returned. ye right! One for persistency
My only fear is that some fool may send loose seeds as it has happened to me once. It sounded like a baby rattle. I was surprised that one got through.
Also you may like the new UBERstealth packaging by seed bay. as mentioned above.

I've unfortunately lost 2 recently. One a couple months ago, and it appears my latest order is stuck in customs for about 2 weeks now. This is the first I've had a problem, and it was 2 orders in a row. Both times I used Airsure and was thinking perhaps that is a possible reason? Perhaps something about that makes it more suspicious. I have not heard of this new uber stealth option. Is there a thread or was there an announcement about this?

My last one took 29 days to get here from date of despatch, so don't give up on it yet.
Two weeks sounds like a lot of time to be stuck in customs, maybe they are checking everything more carefully now and that is why there is a backlog.

There was an announcement about uber stealth, but they didn't say much about it.

My last one was Airsure and there were no problems with it.

Never had a problem 10/10

I thought that most likely too, but based on other mail experiences it seems only my mail to the UK is effected, haven't had any other destinations for UK mail though. It seems given my experiences that it goes missing in the UK before reaching the intended destination. UK postal theives are my leading suspect. If I find them... well no I am not that way. anyway thats that now where was I?

Hi ya Scrappy, Uberstealth is a new option by Seed bay I will paste the URL of the Seed bay forum page were you will find the info on Uberstealth option. I have not tried it my self yet.
However this is a step in the right direction, a very good Seed bay initiative.
I have found that lost seeds can cause great paranoia not to mention the cash we out lay. Our safety is paramount after all.

Thanks conehead I'll have to check that option out. For me it's worth the extra cash to get extra peace of mind. BTW, my beans came in a couple days ago. Yay!

Happy Days Scappy. Good to hear bro!.
