But why seeds, wouldn't an empty envelope be even easier?

  I think the item needs to be fulfilled by Amazon's logistics in order for the "verified purchaser" bit of the scam to work. Seeds are the closest thing to an empty envelope, in terms of weight and cost to stock them, I'd assume. With seeds banned, I expect stickers will be the new decoy product. Alternate theory: The whole goal here was to make it harder for people to buy seeds and thus to garden. ;)

      Please stop spreading the conspiracy theory that this is a joke, running or otherwise. Gardening is illegal in New Zealand.
