Im in the same boat with you UBud. I used to deal with gypsy, but I've heard some shit that makes me a bit wary.
He still has decent pricing on his line, but to me it seems most banks are way overpriced compared to a few years ago.

Yeah my one and only seed buy ever was from Gypster many many moons ago. Was a relatively painless transaction in original breeders' packs but I just flatout don't trust nor like that sumbitch and wouldn't even think of giving him the sweat off my nuts.

Would love to find a reputable source for some Chimera gear. Ran some testers of his that just totally rocked my world.

Hemp Depot - fast, reliable and discrete.

Thanks for the replies, exactly the info I was looking for. What a relief to see Chimera still doing what he does. The man is a true master at his craft.

Think I've decided on the C4 which I've always wanted to try and maybe either his sweetest sativa from doc chronic or the dolce sativa at hemp depot. It sounds like the female half of both is a tester he sent me which ended up being some of the best I've ever had the pleasure of smoking. It had some freaky long sativa dom leaves and in flower the middle blade would split and a little bud would grow right at the base of the split.

They don't do Chimera's stuff, but http://www.hipersemillas.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; is a Spanish company who do a good range of stuff. They usually have the new Mandala strains pretty quickly, and they have a few unusual selections, too.

I've used them and they give good service.

They don't "stealth" the seeds, but they use plain unmarked bags to post in.

Remember Green Man???

Green man is still doing his reviews. And he still updates sporadically.

When you receive your order, drop him an email with the results and how you liked the seedbank you selected.

The Doc could use some more feedback emails from those of you that patronize his establishment.....

I had no problem getting seeds with the Doc a few years back. Well, sort of didn't... They did arrive to me. However, I did have to hound him a bit. One of the seeds I ordered wasn't in stock and, for whatever reason, Doc failed to contact me about it. I finally did manage get a hold of him, though, and he was a true champ about it, even sending me some freebies despite my order being way, way cheap (2 Nirvana packs).

One thing I would recommend regarding Greenman's; do NOT mention you are Stateside or that Doc sends to The States. He has stated, several times, that he does NOT send to the USA and I believe he does this to cover his ass (I doubt he wants to be drug up on charges like Mark Emery). I, personally, feel that we should honor his wishes and not try to contradict his public statement. It is, after all, a small but necessary security blanket for him.

UPDATE:
I ended up getting some Afghan Kush Regulars from the World of Seeds stock at Dr. C.
The Service was topnotch by Dr. Chronic and more rapid than expected.
The seeds however are looking a bit like weak hybrids.
60% germination rate ( I can live with that, but would expect at least 70%)
The first two seem to be mutated on the initial greens, and the next 4 are still sprouts, but the seed husk is hanging on like an angry clam.
