Rep Power: 21 | | How long should an order take?
More specifically, how long should it take my M.O. to get to the U.K.?
I sent a money order to a company on seedboutique on the 20th of September. They still have not received it according to the website. I called the money order company today and it has not been cashed.
Last year I ordered off Seedbay, and received my seeds within 3 weeks, closer to 2 weeks.
When should I give up and stop payment on the M.O.?
I was looking forward to growing this strain, but I did go ahead and plant some bagseeds anyway, because I am tired of payin for my medicine, when I have the means to grow it myself.

Seems they should of gotten the money order by now,,geee,,, I know when I ordered my seeds from Canada, and I'm in the US,, from when they got the money it took more then two weeks for my seeds to get to me,,, you start getting jumpy when it takes that long just from there to here... Hope you get yours soon,, good luck

Any recommendations?

Rep Power: 21 | | Just googled UK postal strike
And the article says they voted(the workers) for a national strike that could start next week. Another article says the backlog may never arrive 
hate to do it, but we are canceling the money order.

That may be the case, but after 20 days and still not receiving my payment according to the website of the company I ordered from, who BTW I trust implicitly...I am fairly certain my M.O. is one of the 15 to 30 million letters sitting backlogged in a warehouse that may never get delivered. Got that from a BBC article about the backlog.

Rep Power: 21 | | Well....
ol dude canceled my order at the boo. I emailed them and told them it had been 20 days, and they still had not received my MO..and that I thought that maybe my mail was in the backlog of between 15 and 30 million letters that may not ever get delivered. I told them I was willing to wait..if they thought that was best.
He canceled it, so I suppose they figured my MO would never get there.
I will post a new thread asking for everyone here's opinion on the best shot I have at getting seeds delivered to the US...
