That's a shame Marley.
It does feel like Nirvana is being left behind in the marketing department a bit these days. Their freebie policy may well have been one of the first (total guess) but it feels like it's outlived its time. It seems mostly to be generating bad press now. I have yet to have a positive experience with a Nirvana freebie, even though I've loved several of their strains. By comparison, Mephisto sent me a free vial of named auto seeds with my order in addition to throwing extra seeds into every pack.
As an auto grower I'm also disappointed that they only occasionally offer auto seeds in their sales, and never at the range of regulars and feminized. This seems short-sighted to me ... autos are a 1 seed, 1 plant proposition (the Monsanto dream), surely that's more profitable than seeds we can clone endlessly.
