...I just have to gripe now. I'm callin' shenanigans.
I've made 3 orders with them.
First one was for 3 Bodhi, one of my picks was sunshine daydream. Didn't get it, got a substitute. ok.
Made a second order for 3 Bodhi. Didn't get the SD again, and got one of the subs I listed but like my 3rd choice. Even though their email list had SD on it everytime I requested it between these orders.
And after my 2nd order was sent out they posted a pic of a SD pack on instagram. wtf?
So 3rd order I went for the Greenpoint polar bear crosses. One of my picks was for Wifi #3 x PB.
Again I didn't get it, I got a substitute which I didn't even pick and I listed 4 different sub choices!
My order arrived there on Fri. May 8th 9:30am. They posted a pic of Wifi on IG that same day and
someone commented "how many left?". They responded "7 packs".
Saturday they posted "3 packs and going fast". wtf?
Now TODAY..2 hours ago..they post a wifi pack on IG! WTF!?

That sucks bro. I was going to make an order from them here not to long ago but didn't like not knowing if I'm going to get the beans I really want. I too was going to get the ssdd but kind of glad I didn't send that dough after all.

Having said that, best place to go for bodhi. I got 3 free packs when I bought 6. And anything bodhi looks top notch. Also got freebie 5 pk. CSI twisted bubba last order. great freebies but when it comes to the most wanted strains ..ssdd wifi gg4 cookies in cream.. they're doing some baitnswitch while tryin to move the other inventory. i get it. so just a heads up.

First was around Valentine's day cuz freebies were 5 pk. "Valentine" by lollipopman & Bodhi Pink Lotus. Second time was Bodhi Snow Wookie & another pack Pink Lotus. They had a bunch of the PL they gave away for a few months I think.

I agree. SHENANIGANS! I emailed 5-14 for current inventory. Current inventory showed Sunshine Daydream in stock. Mailed my order the same day. It was received by SVOC on Saturday 5-16. They shipped my order on 5-19 but stated that Sunshine Daydream was "Out of Stock" I e-mailed today for the current inventory and it still shows SSDD in stock. Hmmmm?

To their credit, they showed Green Point GG#4 x Polar Bear cross was in stock on the 5-14 and showed "Out of Stock" when I received my order. It has been removed from the inventory list I received today.

I just ordered a couple packs of Bodhi from them, and I got my top choice and first substitute, but I was not looking for SSDD either. I am not in love with the seedlist method, but they have more selection of Bodhi than anyone else. They just released a new list and it looks like a bunch of the Bodhi strains are back in stock, plus some new stuff. I also read from someone that they requested their order be held until the strain came in, but who knows how long that could take.

Not a fan of the send cash and hope you get what you want. It was cool back in 2003 and shit but not in 2015. Probably won't use SVOC unless I'm desperate or they invest in a website or something.

For sure. I ordered from them because no one else had the strain I wanted, and it worked out. Still waiting to hear if non med card holders can use great lakes so . . .

I would not be nervous - they are legit. It is just a pain that the seed list does not get updated as fast as really high demand strains sell. You, however, are in luck because they just redid the list so it should be accurate. Edit: It also beats the hell out of finding out a month after your order that customs snagged your gear!

Sucks, because I know SVOC is top class, it's just the not knowing if I'm getting what I'm after. Sure anything from bodhi is good but I'm a stickler for control so the ordering process gets me. Cheers and wonder if Oregonians can order from great lakes now that we're legal.

Great lakes will sell to anybody 21+, but you have to send then a copy of your id so they can confirm your age. Havent gotten around to ordering from them yet but i probably will eventually.
To bad people arent getting things that appear to be in stock, I have always gotten my first choice, just maybe not always the freebie I wanted (promos are usually when I order). It will prob be a while before I order from svoc since all I really want from then us csi or exotic.

That is really good to know about GLG, thank you. He has a good reputation, and some different breeders. I got my first and third option from SVOC, and I knew there was a good chance I would not get the other because it always goes fast. I feel like it is basically the same thing most of us do with a website anyways - if something we want is out, you have to order your second choice. I can see why people would rather just know that its out, and order their first choice from a different bank, though. Especially if they are getting something far down their list. It would be cool if SVoC would at least give the option to order from an updated list if your first few choices are gone by the time they get your order.

This happened to me on an order from SVoC. Ordered up two packs and when I got them I got my 1st choice, and a sub. Then, about two weeks later they put up picks of my 2nd choice that got subbed on IG. Was a head scratcher for sure.

That being said, though, they do have a really good selection, good prices, and it seems like it's always at most a week turn around from them. Also, on the order that the 2nd choice got subbed they did hook it up with lots of freebies, and the subbed pack was actually a really good one.... Just placed another one though, so fingers crossed I get both my choices. :D

Edited to Add: Sometimes it's super fun when they post up pictures of people's orders (with all the important information not shown) and you see yours.
