I said nothing to insult you, unless calling you a know-it-all is an insult.

We need more people like you here, too - can never have too many elitist weed snobs. Especially ones who force their opinions on others as fact while trashing other peoples opinions.

I'm done arguing. They either shake their buds or don't. You enjoy the weed at Basjoes (which I thought was terrible) and I will enjoy the shaken buds at Grey Area.
Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly?

the crystals have to come from somewhere, d'ya think that they are gonna throw the shaken buds away? nope. GA are not the only shop that do this, no doubt about that.

Yup, worst chairs in the dam! :D metal and painful.

Even if you don't mind the prices there has been plenty of reviews saying the buds lacked in GA and I don't understand how anybody could be bothered with the queues, gives the Anne Frank House a run for its money in that area....

Dealers have been very friendly to me the two times I've been there tbh

To be fair USBL is a very knowledgeable chap. As a relative novice I appreciate his input and experience.

thanks for the info. the advice about the grinder is so true. i did exact the same thing last visit. bought it at my 2nd stop (mellow yellow) and collected about 2 grams of nice kif from about 120 grams of fine weed. tastes great and smoothens the joint a lot.

He is claiming they rip people off by removing the tricromes from the outer surface of the buds to make grey crystals.
Where you think them CRYTALS come from? OFF the BUDS they sell

and for your INFO no need to shake--Now days they got static tumbler that extract the crystal from wit in the bud :shock: so if you BUD got tiny hole on them. means that some idiot took crystal from your BUD!

ZBeebs wrote:Yes, the place is small and cramped. Yes, it's expensive. The bud shaken? Not that I could tell, and I highly doubt it. They didn't have any of the crystals when I was there, so maybe they took that week off from shaking the buds? :wink: Everything I sampled was top quality, and their silver bubble was probably the best smoke of the trip. The bongs they had available for use (with no deposit) were all glass, and CLEAN.
The budtender even filled it with fresh water and handed me an alcohol wipe with it. No other shop did that, and the only other place that offered me a clean bong was 420 cafe. (The bongs in bluebird and mellow yellow were nasty!)

I met a couple from Scotland at Grey Area who were on the last day of a week long trip, they told me of all the shops they tried, they were very impressed with the gear at Grey Area and thought it was the best they had all week, so it's not just the Americans who like the place.
