I float tested several seeds, all floated, all sprouted, it'll probably work out
Eh? You said you paid on 4/13 and your postage said 4/23. That's almost 10 days just to get the ball rolling and only 5 business days for delivery - spot on with royal mails website.13 business days and you delivered half way around the globe, through a volcanic ash cloud and to me in the boonies. Speedy like promised
THANK YOU
The reason speedy did this was because if he had sent it during those ten days it would have come via boat (because of the volcano ash) instead of through air mail and it would have taken longer. He said he was going to do this a few pages back because he had found out that some of his shipments were going to be rerouted to boats because they didn't know when air mail would be available again.Eh?

Now it seems everyone shipped after the volcano and even those that ordered through it are showing up. It's everyone that ordered well before that are missing? I mean I made my purchase decision based on the fact people were getting serviced the same day.... if it took a whole week just to get my seeds in an envelope I won't be impressed.
Order # 661
Order Placed 4/13
Shipping Date on Postage 4/23
Arrival 4/30 (Shipped to regular po box & had to sign for package)
Placed all in water for a float test and every one floats, they were only in the water for a minute but ???
Anyone have instructions for a float test,,,more time?
first class is 3 days minimum. i've had it take up to 7. i mail up to 20 packages a week.First class coast to coast is usually about 3days max even to the sticks. I've always gotten my senders copy of customs forms on exports in about that time frame. I can't imagine they waste too much time investigating it beforehand.... especially with backed up boats.
how long does it take to get a customs letter?
yeah, couple days after they find your "stealth" pack. They waste no time on a little pack of seeds or rx.First class coast to coast is usually about 3days max even to the sticks.

okay, I have no idea how U.K. mail works so thanks. I will be making an order pretty soon.The service i usually use is royal mail airsure, which runs at a cost of about 10$, there isn't a faster service available without using couriers, if couriers were to be used then the price would increase but delivery could be 2-3days from order.
