Dr Chronic vs Seed Boutique

[unclebob]

This is just one expeirence and I do not suggest making decisions based on one experience. Anyway, here is cousin's experience this year:

1. Seed Boutique - order placed on 3/1. Sent money order the same day. Waited two weeks and order still says awaiting payment. Sent e-mail inquiry and zero response other than auto response. Waited another week or so and sent another inquiry. No response. Cuz would have had the same result if he had placed his order and sent his check to Santa at the north pole.

2. Dr Chronic - Sent order arounf 3/10. Sent money order the same day. Approx 6-7 days later got an e-mail saying "shipped today" 6-7 days later cuz recieved all. None missing, none damaged, no problem.

Peace.

Agreed. The good Doc Chronic has always done fine by me. No reason to deviate from present course.

Hey nitepharmer,

I gave up on SB. It was only a fairly small order, and it's not worth my time to try and chase them down. I probably won't order from them again though, just because I don't like the fact that they don't even read or respond to inquiries about pending orders. I am not saying they screwed me. Perhaps the check never got to them, I don't know. They could have taken 1 minute to reply and say "I am sorry but we did not get your money order, please complete a lost / stolen form to the issuing company" If they had taken that 1 minute, I would have re-placed the order and sent them another check. Instead, I just placed a second order with Doc Chronic. I am glad I split the original order between the two though. I am not crazy over the way the Doc packs them either, without going into detail here, I guess you know what I mean. From all I have heard many, many times, people have been happy and have recieved what they ordered. Its just a little different. At least he is upfront about it. If you look at his site he explains his packing and shipping methods so you know what to expect. I think he is on the level with it. We will see what the fall brings cause most of 07 is going to be from his stuff.

If you got that ice from female seeds, and you bust ass prepping your sites like I know you do, you are going to be one happy customer come fall. I learned from you too, sites of fifteen BIG plants are just too intense come harvest time, this year I'm cutting way back in the amount per site department. Five or under is a misdomeanor, in my state at least.

"I WANT A SIGNATURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SOMEONE SAY SOMETHING COOL SO I CAN USE IT AS MY SIG!!!!!!!!!!DO IT NOW!!!!!!
DAMN I AM BORED" lol, we have this chick that works with us...Her first name is Lesby and her middle name is Ann...Lesby-Ann. What a name, huh?

[unclebob]

Hey Nitepharmer. No ICE for me. That was one of the ones that was on my original SB order. Unfortunately by the time I realized that order was not comming, the ICE, the Grapefruit and other first pics where sold out everywhere, so I missed out on them for this yr. I guess that' what kind of pissed me off is that I waited on those too long before realizing that nothing was going to happen. My mistake. That's OK though, I got some FS Moroc, Skunk Special and Sour NL X Nevelles Haze. I can't wait to see how the Sour NL X Haze burns. I have heard good things about the Moroc too. The SS was thrown in strickly for yield. :thumbsup:

PEACE

I too have been having problems with s.b. sent m.o. no reply sent messages get the faq. option over and over . too bad!! had good experiances b-4 this .won't be having another experiance tho. something real wrong with this co. buyer beware!!!

I've had nothing but good results multiple times from seed boutique, but I think they are just getting too big and too busy. Years ago the biggest seed company was Marc Emery out of Canada, they stupidly bragged about selling over two million seeds. Well their service got shitty and finally the US put enough heat on Canada to close them down. I wonder if a really BIG seed company invites problems on itself. How discreet can their mailing system be when some employee of seed boutique mails out one thousand packages at a time. Maybe like growers its best that they stay small and below the radar. Just speculation.
