i got some seeds from SIGNA today, but i was very disappointed.
 
 Out of the 5 crosses i had ordered , i only received 2,  with respectively 4 and 5 seeds, and no explanation about the 3 missing packets.


It sounds like you ordered seeds that were in short supply.  There are warnings about ordering such seeds.  If you are not among the first people to order it, they will be sold out.  So it is recommended that you provide a list of substitutes.


 
how come the software didn't tell me they were no longer on offer and made me pay for them...
 

I'm the webmaster, and our software is not that sophisticated!  It is not electronically integrated with orders received via regular post or by other means.  Every week or so the seed chairs send me a list of sold out seeds and I update the website.  We don't have an automated system like Amazon or something.  This seed list and website is handled by unpaid volunteers!

There is plenty of explanation & warnings about ordering seed in short supply.  If only 10 seeds are donated of a rare species... many people will try to purchase it... but only 2 or 3 people will be successful.


 
I received 2 other crosses that i didn't order, with 7 and 9 seeds  i couldn't be bothered with,   without any explanation as well . 
 
 
I had already sent emails to the generous donators, i will have to write and apologize for not receiving their seeds.....
 
This was a first, that will be my last attempt.
All my hopes raised for a mere 9 seeds, i don't find this joke funny.
