If you and Cole have a trade/transaction going on please be aware that it can take weeks or longer to receive any mail that is coming from Canada, or going into Canada.. Patience is a virtue, before you start accusing.. Ginny |

Ridiculous.
It seems to me that you sent $2 to cover postage for a free seed offer, and when the seeds don't come right away you start accusing people of scamming? Frankly, Cole Robbie is known to be a trustworthy community member, and you have 5 posts (two of which are about getting free seeds, or complaining when they don't come fast enough). And like others have said -- if you have to complain, PM. Truly no good deed goes unpunished. |

Sending seeds to Canada can be a crap shoot. I've had seeds arrive in British Columbia in as little as 5 days. I've had seeds going to Ontario take as much as 17 days. I've also had seeds going to Canada simply disappear, never to be seen again. It seems like Canadian Customs has "let them go" days, but they also have "stop everything" days, and they don't let you know when they confiscate and subsequently burn your envelope.
So, patience is the key. Good luck also doesn't hurt.

The seeds went out yesterday (I emailed gro2can yesterday, too, by the way). The envelope did sit on my desk for 3-4 days before I opened it. It took a long time to get here from Canada.
Thank you for the supportive messages posted earlier. I'm really hard to offend, though. I don't think I've ever been mad at anyone on this web site. Last edited by Cole_Robbie; August 27, 2015 at 03:42 PM. |

I have no hard feelings at all, my friend. I hope you enjoy the seeds.
