So right now the red link to online ordering isn't working for anyone, right?  I can't get it to open in either Chrome or IE.  Just checking to make sure this is a bug they're working on to fix and not a fluke of my system.  I was able to open the pdf of the seed list so I can start shopping.

Thanks to everyone working to make this system work.  Rolling out something new like this is difficult and often a bit buggy at first.  I'd just like to make sure the bugs aren't in my system!

Thank you,

That is my current experience Jan-the hardworking folks at the seed exchange and web host will come through soon I'm sure.  The list was much more exciting than my meager wish list so many revisions were in order-sooo excited

From Down Under in New Zealand (on Windows 7) the red link isn't working for me. I can't open the complete seedlist, but I can open the basic one and start jotting down my order. Lots of goodies on there so my order's probably way bigger than my allocation! Off out for a walk now for a couple of hours to give you guys chance to fix the bugs - good luck, and thanks!  Smiley

For those of you who are having difficulty accessing the PDF file of seeds available in the exchange, please email Laura Serowicz @
seedintake@mi.rr.com for the list. Hopefully we'll have the whole thing fixed shortly, but in the interim, at least you'll be able to pick out your seeds.

Any ETA? Will there be an announcement when this is all working or should we just keep clicking on the red link? Thanks...great list BTW, will be hard to decide.

I've been trying unsuccessfully all day to get the list.  It doesn't download in Safari - just bounces me back to the NARGS homepage.  However, Firefox downloaded it instantaneously.

The seedlist downloads instantaneously for me too, but I'm confused...is the online ordering working for anyone or should we just mail in our orders?

I never managed to open up the seed list but Joyce sent me a copy of the basic list via email - I didn't expect that so thank you very much.  Thank you for trying so hard to get it up and working - I can only guess at your frustration but technology is so complicated and integrated these days that the best laid plans...............  Appreciate all you're doing.

I have my selections made but the online ordering function still isn't working for me.  Everyone else in the same boat?

Perhaps whoever ends up fixing the problem can post in the forum when it's fixed.

Thank you,

My 'inside' information is that there is one last issue to be addressed and then it will be a 'go.' Hopefully that will happen soon. Thanks for your patience.

I have my seed order all ready to go....should I wait for the online system or just mail it in? I imagine the online system should make it much easier to process all the orders, but I don't want to miss out this year. Thanks.

If you mail in your order, it will be 2-4 days before the order is actually processed. I can't imagine any scenario where the Seed Exchange won't be fixed by tonight. So considering the alternatives I would suggest waiting. I've been waiting for 3 days as well, and the thought of sending my order in by mail has occurred to me as well, but I have to believe waiting is the right choice.

OK, I'll try to be patient. I was ready with my order early last week but decided to wait to submit it electronically to make it easier on the processing end.
