Travellers Garden?? Good??? Bad??? I'm worried.

2 weeks ago I ordered 3 syringes from Travellersgarden.com, I thought they were legit because of the nice website, and the nice descriptions of every product. (Plus, I liked the fact that I had to send them money via western union, so my credit card wasn't linked to them....)
They're one of the sponsors, but the person that claimes to be the representative for it on shroomery.org (gardentraveller) has a totally different website listed for their home page. And they haven't been active on shroomery since like 2003.
Has anyone else ever ordered from this site??? Because I've searched the forum dozens of times, and I can't even find anyone even talking about it.
I'm just a little worried, because I paid 20 extra US dollars for priority mail, to get to the US within 6-7 days, and it's been 2 weeks already. I'm also a little worried, because I sent them an email yesterday morning (1 pm Netherlands time) regarding my order, and it says they have recieved the email, but haven't responded.
I don't want to be the first one to get douched by a shroomery sponser.....
PLEASE someone assure me my shit will come. Someone tell me you know this guy personally and will talk to him for me.....haha thank you
I need some assurance!

I know (at least I hope he wasn't lying) he sent it because when i first ordered it, i checked on the status, and it said it was cancelled. So I emailed and they emailed me back saying that it was a mistake, and my package was on the way. That was two weeks ago tommorrow.
what happens if customs opens the mail??? do they just toss it, or do they fuck with the merchandise? are they going to like, investigate me or what?? AGH! man.......that would totally suck.

i dont know about us custom but i know for a fact that letters with unlabeled seeds sent to me has been tossed away by norways custom. so i assume it could happen in usa as well. or they return it to sender.
you should instead find a us vendor perhaps

they were realiable for me and I even received the spores before they took the money out of western union which is risky cause i could have cancelled the money order.

You shouldn?t order spore syringes from outside the US. I heard before that US customs is confiscating spore syringes. Claiming syringes are paraphernalia. Of course I do not know if this is what happened, but it is a possibility.

Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking. I should've went the ralph way, he's only a state away.
But, I did get in contact with the guy. And he also suspects customs has it. So all i can do now, is order from somewhere else and wait for my refund. =/

Thanks. I wasn't really trying to dis on travellers garden, I was kinda looking for some other opinions on his service, since I couldn't really find much.
I suspect it's in customs too. I did write the guy back and asked him to track the package (which he said could take up to 4 weeks) and once we've come to a conclusion of whether or not i'll ever get my package, I'll probably request a refund.
It's just kind of a bummer, because i paid extra money for priority shipping, and extra money to send cash through western union. =/ eek. it all came out to like $75 for 3 syringes.
I guess I learned my lesson though!!!! DON'T BUY FROM OVERSEAS! No bitter feelings against TG, I was becoming a little frustrated. But as long as he keeps in touch and something good on my part results in a months time, I won't have to report it. I really hope this doesn't turn out bad, for both of our sakes. But in the meantime, I'm going to purchase a nice deal off Ralphsters.......the Roadkill deal as a matter of fact.
Are you *the* roadkill? j/w

OOOO sorry Ralph, but I already sent you an order form for Roadkill's special! Maybe my next order I'll get your special.
BTW, let me know if you ever get my order. As you can see, I've been having trouble with the US postal service.
Not only with this incident tho....ebay shit never gets to me, and all that junk....
So, if you could give me a heads up from when you send my package out, that would be AWESOME!!!! Because I did get the express option. =)

travellers garden has a good name and i never heard anyone have problems with them before. like you say, its probably customs, packages from netherland is more likely to be checked than packages from well sweden to take an example because of their liberal drug policy.

Well, good. I'm glad to hear nothing but good things about TG. That takes half the worry off my shoulders.
But, I am worried about customs. I hope I don't get investegated or something because of this. =/
