If seed goes missing, what likely happened to it?

Postal workers are sneaky bastards.

i had(key word) a buddy that worked for ups. if he "felt" something was weed related such as seeds he would keep it. he once came across 4# of bud and sold it all. made some nice change, all profit.

im sure hes not the only one.

Thought you meant disappearing seeds after you plant them (outside). I've had g'damn birds dig up and wipe out an entire plot of seeds and seedlings. Salvaged 3 out of 36.

They sure were persistent... Could have left my seedlings alone, but no. They dug them up and ate ONLY the seed portion.

yeah I have had slugs and even chipmunks and/or mice eat young seedlings. I don't put them out that small anymore. So postal workers are probably to blame I take it.

Other:
US Customs seizes the seeds and neglects to send the envelope onward (with their form letter). Within the past two months, I have two shipments missing from a Dutch vendor that I know to be 100% reliable (and he emails me when he ships).
I dunno.

More likely, I guess, but I don't suspect my mail delivery person--doesn't look the type. No mail theft from my box, either.
