Best way to purchase seeds...

[ZigZaggin]

Greetings all. I'm looking form some opinions / experiences on how to purchase seeds. I have read hundreds of posts regarding good & reliable sites to purchase from and believe I've narrowed it down to a select few that I will feel good about sending my money to. Is it cool to use a debit card or best to mail order with a money order? For those who have reported success was it with a money order or debit card? Is it safe to use a debit card? I'm from the Midwest in the USA. Thanks in advance for your time, experiences, & knowledge. I plan on reporting my full experience back to the forum in the coming months.

1. Pre-paid debit card
2. Ship to a P.O box
3. Get the best "stealth" shipping option
4. If you can't use a p.o box ship to your address but with a made up name.
5. Enjoy your new seeds

Re read what I wrote. I said if you DON'T have a PO box then use a fake name and ship to your house. If you are useing a PO. Box use your real name.

You could see how that could be confusing? But no worries. Either way if they hold such a small package I would be very cautious in going to go pick something up that is illegal in most cases. But no hard feelings my man.

what sense does it make they will let something illegal through customs just so they can bust you later when you go to collect?

They do it all the time. The reason being if you go in to the post office and sign for it you are admitting guilt. If it just shows up to your house you can say it was a mistake. They have used that technic for many years. But not arguing With you. Just trying to give him the safest way that many friends have used and worked. Give your thoughts on how you would ship it. I am always up to learn new stuff.

dont listen to this fool you want to avoid the post office there are tons of threads how to do it. ill list them

the easiest,

your own bankcard and house(if your not growing if you are a friends)

the easiest safe way
greendot visa prepaid, registered to your name or a friends, ship to friends house under their name or your name.

the safest way but never guarenteed way
international money order or cash in mail sent to them, shipping adress to friends under thier name.

few variations you can make but those are the best ways.

dont fuck with the post office even if they dont bust or investigate you, they have their lists, they have been known to let people slide to catch bigger fish.

you have to call greendot to use overseas after registering it it must be registered to a name/SS sux i know, also greendot is the only one i know of that can be used overseas.

Did you call me a fool? Not sure what I said was foolish? Sometimes this site has some knowledge but it seems like a lot of name calling also. Don't get why everything has to turn into a pissing contest. We are all here to learn or help. So no need for the shit talking.

Got it and thanks everyone. Your info is definitely appreciated!

A debit/credit card is safe as long as you are ordering from a reputable site like the attitude etc. Money order and your order number work fine as well. I always ordered to my parents house when I was growing commercially. Now that I'm only growing medically for myself I just order to my house to avoid hassle.

I don't worry, I have received the classic letter from Customs telling me that if I want what they intercepted I had to go get it, if they wanted to they could have hunted me down easily, no matter where I ordered the seeds to. We tend to get a little paranoid with this stuff.

I mean unless ure ordering hundreds of seeds I wouldn't worry about it, just do whatever you feel comfortable with.

i read a lot of info here, but there are now sites posted. yes i did a search on here for seed sites, i found this. if anyone has any good sites they hard successfully ordered from multiple times, you can pm me or post on here. which ever if more comfortable. i know we all like to keep things a bit discrete. more others then some, but to each his own. any site help would be great though.

Ulm. No one is hiding anything from you. Everything you need to know to order seed via a seedbank is easily found in this here forum you just posted. You don't need anyone to hold your hand. Or am I misunderstanding something?
