I sent a parcel on the 5th March to Canada containing over 60 seeds for a group of kids to grow. I sent a self addressed bubble to the US at the same time which was received on the 11th.

Surely there must be away to get seeds through or am I just having the lions share of postal confiscations?

were they confiscated???? We don't have laws against seeds coming to Canada.

I could be jumping the gun on this one but maybe its just because I have lost the only bubble to me fRom Canada this year and of 2 from the US only 1 arrived.

guess I shouldn't blame customs just yet and should be patient but its a parcel a few people are getting excited about. Just dont want to let anyone down

Dandy, I have a package coming from Ian and he sent it about the same time. I'm not at all anxious yet. I've ordered seeds from a couple places over there and it's usually 3 weeks.

Don't panic. I just received a pak from Eddy. Took over two weeks and we live in the same province. If I ordered a razor from Ontario I'd look like father time before I could shave. Btw thanks Eddy.

6 days from Europe to N.A. is on average fast if it went through customs. To the best of my knowledge customs only spot checks and does not open every package but just rubber stamps them. The big concern is catching any taxes that are due besides the illegal stuff.
