I've actually never seen this in-store in the US.
So it may be something that you only see in online shops?
But I know there are some bird shops that will ship internationally (though you may need to request it.)

I tried to search earlier to no avail. If you can't get it shipped, I suggest reading the list of ingredients, and maybe you can purchase individual herbs and duplicate it...at least mostly...if possible. Not sure how feasible this is, but it might work.

Thanks, here it is for $6 but scared to give credit card details to a stranger, thought it would be available in SA. http://www.justbirdstuff.com/Herb-Salad ... 16306.html

CHIRP I would be very careful about ordering from them. I will attach the link why in a second but wanted to make sure you knew this first.

I researched the company. First, when you order from a company that's safe, they usually have a lot of info at the bottom of their page stating they are protected and secure if you order from them. I will attach a page link that sells bird seed and bird products to show you how they have a lot of protection and verification emblems at the bottom of their page. Just Bird Stuff has NONE. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/bird-supp ... PPC-G-4069
Then I went to the BBB Better Business Bureau page. They determine if a company is good. Not every company is evaluated but if the company is evaluated and gets a bad grade, they should not be trusted. They got an "F." http://www.bbb.org/chicago/business-rev ... l-88605210
They got an "F" because someone ordered the exact item you want to order and never got it and the customer tried everything to resolve it and the company never did resolve it causing BBB to give them an "F" because they allow mistakes and give you maybe a B or C but if you don't resolve the issue, they don't tolerate it. Here is that page. http://www.bbb.org/chicago/business-rev ... complaints I hope you get this message before you order the Herb Salad.

Corkysgirl, thank you 4 that info........... seems you just cannot trust anymore, I am always worried about giving any credit card info out......... thanks,

I know what you mean. It's scary nowadays. I'm glad you saw this before you ordered. If you're ordering in America and it has the emblems on the bottom of the page, the security emblems and especially the BBB Better Business Bureau, they're usually trustworthy. Your chances are much much greater. I'll keep my eye open for where it can be ordered.
Wow, I didn't proof read my post above as I was trying to write it fast to you. I wrote the longest run on sentence. My teachers would not have approved.

Corkysgirl --- Jeez Louise, you're a hound!
Good for you to have figured that out!

I'll be totally honest -- I just buy things.
I don't usually investigate unless they trigger some warning bells.

I've never had a problem, fortunately. And I generally stick to major sites like Amazon, plus I use Paypal, which lets you file a complaint and get your money back if you're scammed.
But still! I should be more careful! Thank you for the reminder!

@CHIRP -- Can you get it directly from Twin Beaks?

Mia, because CHIRP voiced his concern and because he was ordering from South Africa, I was more concerned about it being an overseas order. Also, I can't do much but sit here...and I'm up all night so I want to help if I can. I never heard of the company and thought I could do a quick check. I did a Google check for reviews on the company. It brought me to the Better Business Bureau site. Usually if you do that you will just see reviews and can judge accordingly. I usually have main companies I order from also, like Amazon, overstock.com, etc., companies I trust, and yes, can get refunds for. I thought if this company was a scam, that wouldn't be easy for CHIRP. So...that's how it went. I hate people ripping off others! I'm a right fighter!
