That's not really fair to call them a rip off. Customs could have taken them, maybe you didnt get a letter yet. Maybe someone stole them, its not uncommon for postal employees to get to "know" an address and start intercepting packages.
Ordering seeds online, and having them shipped, especially to the USA is always risky and you could lose them. I'm not saying they COULDNT have screwed you, just its not fair to label a seed bank as a "ripoff".
Yeah,
Unfortuneatly, these things do happen. I have ordered from different seed banks and one time one order didnt make it. I was more worried about them being delivered to the wrong address than the seedbank making a mistake. I've also dealt with Hemp Depot without any problems.
now, that attitude is just WRONG !!! if you got 'ripped off', and after this long of a time, you probably DID get ripped off, but not by Hemp Depot ... IF you got ripped off, it was by the Customs Dept. :( ... marijuana seeds are ILLEGAL, duhhhh :wtf: ... and, you are the ONLY customer to have posted here without getting your seeds, that I've seen ... the only other 2 complaints I ever saw, got their seeds a few days later ... sorry for your bad luck, but put the blame where it belongs ... HEMP DEPOT, and Brad, are the ONLY honest retailers I have dealt with, regarding cannabis seeds ... :smokin:Quote:

You defend them so religiously, how do I know your not brad himself.. in fact it was all YOUR posts about HD that peaked my interests in them..
well, like I said, I'm sorry things didn't work out for you, especially since my praise drew you to them ... no, I'm not only NOT Brad, I am in NO way connected with Hemp Depot ... I have truthfully, never received ANY compensation or consideration from them, either ... I only brag them up, because I have been screwed by other dealers, as has lots of people, and have only been 100% happy with HD ... hell, maybe next time, it will be MY 'turn in the barrel' ... I won't be too happy about it, but I'm not gonna start screaming at HD for what was probably the fault of either Customs or Postal ... better luck next time, suggest you buy somewhere else ... :smokin:
I havent been screaming at anybody.. in fact, I have continued to remain quite polite with them. I simply trust the postal service far more than I trust some illicit transnational canna-seed dealer.. Im confident customs didnt pick it up because I probly would have been informed by now.. I just think it would have been decent of them to re-send a couple beans.. It wouldnt cost them nearly what this has cost me..
Who goes and buys seeds online thinking they have a 100% chance of showing up? I bought some 2 weeks ago, and I have mine already, BUT if they didn't show, that was MY fault, not theirs, or customs, or anyones else's. I choose to make an illegal transaction and can accept it if I got caught. If you went to a dealer down the street and bought some seeds then got caught with them while driving home, are you going to go back to the dealer and demand a refund or more seeds? No, although I'd like to see that lol. There's nothing that separates that dealer down the street from Hemp depot. They both sell illegal substances to American citizens and they both don't give a fuck if you get caught and sure as hell won't give you a refund or more seeds.
So Accept it.
:wtf:Easy for you to say.. I was venting bro. I got ripped off, not caught, and naturally I'm going to be upset.. I'm not pissed about them being intercepted, if that were the case, I wouldnt be complaining.. I never got anything at all.. No customs letter stating they intercepted my mail.. nothing.. Therefor one must assume that one has been scammed.. isnt that the obvious assumption? If I find out otherwise, I will take back what I said, but its been long enough..Quote:

Makes me even more nervous about buying seeds! Maybe I'll take a road trip to Canada or just stick to bagseed
Well.. I officially apologize to Hemp Depot or anyone who stood up for them.. They are not a scam at all..
Apparently they arrived weeks ago, but inadvertently got thrown away by a co-worker..
My apologies to everyone.. I was hugely mistaken..:o
