Shafted?

Post by seanlyall »

Is anyone else being shafted at the moment or is it just me?!

A month ago I found a new dealer who was smoking some pretty nice smelling Green, cut to the point I got shafted with an ounce of damp "gambo"(whatever the f*** kinda green thats meant to be!). I obviously never went back to that Knob, but just when I was starting to lose hope I was told by a mate that some decent weed was going around and that he could pick me up a bag. I got that bag and it was half mouldy and damp!

I dont know about you guys but wouldnt it just be nice to get a bag of dry weed from a decent dude who knows what he is doing? I genuinely think that the majority of these idiots grow weed, chop and sell damp! I would bet that the retards wouldnt know what drying and curing is! Infact I would put my testicles on the line and guarentee that the people I have dealt with couldnt tell me what I am buying or if it was indica or sativa! I have actually heard someone spew the words "does it matter? Green is Green."

Sorry for going on but I had to let that out, I obviously have some anger built up :D

I really feel for you, been in those shoes before and it ain't fun.

Bottom line... all green is not green and anyone who says that "green is green" hasn't had quality herb and wouldn't know the difference.

Shame about that statement being made... wish I were near and we'd share a fatty.

peace.

shafted? How many times have I been there? It sucks to live somewhere that the safest and most reliable way to get weed is to go to the poorest section of town. It makes you feel bad because not only are you paying for a plant, but you are also exploiting the poor because you know deep down they are not making a profit. And yet we do things, like vote down prop 19. We are forcing our children to go to the hood to score herb. Thanks Nixon-Obama.

I feel for ya man, I really do. About 6 or 7 years ago, some hoodlum sold me an 8th of grass. Like the kind you mow, not the kind you smoke. It just fucking sucks a lot of the time. Amsterdam and California have the good life while we are still being shafted.
Are you high right now?

I feel for you man. Part of the reason I moved here is unashamedly to be able to buy weed legally.

Yes, I know amazing homegrown weed is supposed to be easily available in the UK but when I lived there, I came across all-sorts and rarely the good stuff, more often the adulterated/low-quality stuff - and this is when I could even get my hands on weed. Hardly ever had a sure thing.

I guess I was just unlucky but at least here it is legal, generally good quality and also a great selection and I don't have to worry about that shit anymore.

Damn this herb should be legal everywhere :x

You should know better than to say it's legal though, the word you are looking for is tolerated.

Apologies for my pedanticness.

You have been posted on the December Whos In Town page.

You can see who else may be in town during your stay.

Watch for Toke & Talks, I post them up to the last minute.
Or post one of your own. All I need is a date, time, and coffeeshop to post it.

By default I link your posting to your profile page here on ACD.

https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/profi ... le&u=38139

I can change it to a web link ( myspace, facebook, personal page )
or an email address if you want.

You can do a little practice shopping on the Coffeeshop Menus page.

Enjoy

Yes but you should know better than to be pedantic ;)

It's de-facto/effectively legal. But I cannot be bothered with that mouthful of words each time :D

Mouldy! yikes :shock:,We all know a couple of con artists if we were honest mate,The irony is that sometimes its the conmen/neds who do have the best stuff! i try & keep at least a couple on dealers on the go myself,If one starts any BS with prices or gear quality you can simply try elsewhere 8),As for damp gear you get that here at times! also ive asked what they have when i am on the phone & its like "grass",lol they stopped calling it grass in like 1964 :lol:,Weed is weed to the sharks here as well mate :lol:.
