I am sorry to have just found out that 2 bubbles to the states did not make it. The addressees have sent me an email that they received my bubble with a note from customs that the seeds have been removed and destroyed. This is the first time this has happened in the 4 years I have been trading seeds.

Please let me know who else got such a bubble from me with a note from customs. I am so destraught over this that I considering not ever trading seeds again.

If I have traded with anyone, and this happened, I will ensure you get our seeds back, even if I have to fly back to the states and mail them from there.

With my deepest apologizes,
owen

Again, I am sorry that this has happened.

Owen, I got mine today with a note and no seeds. Dont worry about it man. This stuff happens. It's not your fault, its the jerks that have the big egos in customs, that have to destroy poor little pumpkin seeds because they can. I got alot of seeds already, though. Dont beat yourself up over it. Mike

This is something I found online. Reading it may help or may not? Depends on the permitting process as opposed to the phytosanitary certificate process. For small hobby growers and seed traders both suck, in MHO. Later Scott.

Well so far 4 have been destroyed and 3 have made it. There are still a couple out there, this was just the beginning of my seed sending, as I sent about 15 to the states, and still have at least 40 more to go.

I do not blame customs, they are just doing there job. I have not looked hard enough into getting the necessary paper work here, so I take the blame.

I am very pleased to know that some of the seeds arrived safely as I was sending more then just my own seeds.

G, I hope that it gets to you safely more then you. If it gets destroyed, I will find a truly safe way to return the seeds in our deal.

Again, I take responsibility, and will make right on any trades.

If you wish, you can send me the seeds in the bubble packs, I'll get a pyto and send them on to the US. So far I haven't missed in 3 years. I would do this for anybody, email me
