No problem, he did a quick fix. He doesn't know if its going to solve the issue, but would like to help. Give it a try, let me know.
He also mentioned that folks from Canada may have more then issues on that site then other countries.

Hey brother, are you still having trouble in that site? Zoot played with a couple things. It's not perfect but should be better.

I have had some great smoke from those freebees too. The stardawg that was used is in some of them is especially astringent....i really like it.

Hashy skunky toasty with a hint of blueberry muffin, a lil chemmy on the backend. All I know is that, I am certain that it is gonna be dank as hell.

Brooooooooo!!!! This is a Chem cross with Sunshine correct? The very first year the Wife and I grew, Sunshine was the clone she picked, and I seem to recall an almost Apple like scent in it, and man crossing it into that seems to have been for the win! That sounds soooooo good!

This is obviously just wishful thinking, but I'm kinda in disbelief that GLG hasn't updated their payment options.
Cash in the mail is obsolete and antiquated, especially for international customers. There's a zero percent chance that I'm going to go to all the effort of getting physical American cash and paying to mail it to them (and pay more for tracking) for genetics that may or may not be in stock when said payment comes. Not when I could deal with other American seedbanks/breeders (agseedco, The Nature Farm, Neptune, SHN, etc) that take modern payment methods and will ship the beans I order that or the next day.
Like, I get not wanting to deal with credit card companies (sorta, plenty of other US seedbanks do without issue), but seriously. Crypto. Venmo. Cashapp, bank transfers. It's 2022, we shouldn't have to be sending over carrier pigeons with stone tablets to order beans.

Agreed 100%. Dragboat has always said it has something to do with their day jobs, but I feel like at this point they could've come up with a work around. I've paid more for gear other places or bought something else entirely even just because it was easier to pay for.
One think I will point out though is once you place your order they will hold your seeds until payment arrives. They do ask that you send a tracking number so they know payment is en route but even in cases where I haven't and the payment takes a while they have been really good about holding stuff for me as long as I kept them in the loop.

I will only send cash for seeds and have never had a failure in more than a decade, including European banks. That said, I completely agree with you. They surely know that sales would explode if they offered easier means of payment so I have no doubt they've earnestly looked into it. I'm with you - I hope it happens.
They also toss in some cool stuff to make the extra effort worthwhile - always free seeds, often coozies, slaps, and other good stuff.

Fair enough on the second point. But yeah, like all they'd have to do is open a personal account on any exchange with a receiving address, have that person immediately transfer all deposits into USD, then transfer the USD to a bank account, then transfer that to their business account (or use cash if needed). It would take 15 minutes, once a week. Records are kept forever.
