fitzgerald Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hey guys, HAd a terrible experience with Dr Greenthumb seedbank as advertised in HighTimes - I sent them a cash order before the start of our season, and have been waiting and waiting, I finally contacted them, and was told "we never received you order" - Ok, it happens, so I wait another 2 weeks, and email for an update and was told "we don't have your order, don't ever email here again, and F off!!) To me that is crap! Just because we are half a world away they think they can treat us like that! I think that is rubbish!Without customers, business go under and especially in this industry, where the customers are trusting the company will send them what they order (legit strains etc) .I was told these guys were good, and after getting fed up with Attitudes relaxed non stealth postage I thought bugger it, i'll give them ago.Well 3 months later, 500$ lighter and nothing to show for it, I would warn any and all aussies to seriously beware of ordering through them, as they are dodgy, rude and you don't get squat, so Aussies, beware! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stoned Jester Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Sending cash by mail is dodgy at best, no trace could of been picked up anywhere along the lines. they could of been like 'Oh Sweet $500 cash *yoink* ill take that .. yeah mate we didn't receive anything *snickering in background*' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louise Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 So you didn't invest in tracking for your envelope full of cash? That's a shame. I've made several cash purchases from overseas seed vendors and never had any trouble... but then I did pay for a signature on delivery, so I would know when they took delivery of my envelope full of cash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitzgerald Posted December 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Thanks for the replies guys - Stoned Jester - That's exactly what I feel has happened, even if it wasn't management, could have been a worker etc, but it was carefully wrapped, computer typed addy to avoid suspicion, I reckon there havin a good old laugh at my expense. Louise - I was told by a mate, don't send registered due to laws (Sender/receiver) so I took his advice. I'm wishing I didn't as I would at least have proof they received the envelope. The way they have dealt with me asking 2 questions is beyond me, you would think they would at least make an effort to look, not just tell me to f off. I hate it that I cant do anything, just have to cop it sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louise Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 An expensive lesson... these days I use an anonymous, prepaid credit card from the supermarket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Genovese Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Always send cash by registered post! Especially that amount! I'm assuming that company is American, I personally would not order from America. Just shop around, use registered post next time, maybe place one order in for a "Test" first. Sorry to hear of your great loss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
