since joining the silk road as a cannabis seller muskabuzz has been inundated with requests for free samples. these requests have come from a variety of sources:
- helpful people that have proffered tips along with their requests
- senior users that have strongly suggested this is the way to do business
- abusers with little or poor transaction histories that send out shotgun spams
though these requesters vary in intention they all share a common characteristic: they will exchange the free sample for a review. and this we believe is where the problem lies. for our intention is to offer the finest cannabis experience on sr: incredible product, shipping, and customer service. we don't think biased reviews from people that owe favors is the way to do this. in many industries this is not permissible for obvious reasons.
yet the last think we want to do is be cheap, especially to the very people that have made silk road possible. so presented with this dilemma we have come up with a simple strategy: a very inexpensive (2 bitcoin) yet generous sample and a money back guarantee. if your a tenured sr user and you find our Fleetwood OG Kush anything less than amazing we will return a full refund. the sample is from the same Fleetwood OG Kush crop that has already been (unbiasedly) rated "5 of 5 top shelf".
you can find the sample at http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/item/17979
our page is http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/user/89106
we hope this pleases the community, thanks for your time reading this.

You wouldn't be the first vendor being (scammed), or at trolled for free samples.
As a new vendor you need at least a handful of good reviews to start the ball rolling.
Offering the sample, is like a lose leader at a new store, brings in the business to check out the store.
The more trusted, and experienced members wait for others to test the waters.
IE Uniwiz, waits for Freeman,Dobbs, Mr Grey etc to report.
Read the other cannabis vendors reviews. You will see us trading jabs, and info.
No need to put up with blackmail, put out a good product, and we will spread word for free.
I await to read some more good reviews from respected members.
That's what gets you on the Good Cannabis Vendors list.
Thanks for letting the guys have some samples, it really is a good idea.

Hey muskabuzz,
I will try out a sample. The chronic looks beautiful.

I really like the way you are going about things muskabuzz, especially the whole thing about buyers trading good reviews for free samples from the vendors...very good point you made. Hopefully the sample offer will be around for at least the next few days or until I'm able to make a purchase from my account because it looks like you have a wonderful product I would like to try.
Any word on bigger quantities and price breaks in the future?
-
nice one, good to see new vendors raising the bar.
-
I placed an order today for both the sample and the 3 gram size. I'll report back on quality and shipping
-
Out of stock already?
That doesn't sound right?
Anymore reviews?
Whooops no mail, knuckle head.
Maybe tomorrow gets muskabuz on the list.?
-
I placed my order over the weekend. I received an email from muskabuzz letting me know it would be mailed tomorrow. My spider senses are up to uniwiz. Hopefully it all goes well. I anticipate having my sample by thu or fri.

I got mine in today, great bud, exactly as pictured. There was only one Vac seal though, which is a bit worrisome, but easily fixed for future orders.
I would recommend this vendor to anyone, hopefully they will start selling larger amounts
-
Looks like what I like, need to try it and I would be happy to post accordingly.
I don't mind paying for small sample.

After sampling the bud I am more impressed. Very good smoke, with great flavor and high. Pulled one tube and I'm feeling great, with a noticeable head tingle coming on.
-
My sample should be around sometime this weed. 8)

Nice !!! Cant wait \o/ !!!

Just clicked on the item listing now and damn that pic looks tasty!!!
I've only got 2.40 BTC left (I lent 1 BTC cos I felt sorry for some twat who wouldnt order something 3 weeks ago who STILL hasn't paid me back..learnt my lesson) can you can ship me 0.5g including shipping to UK?
-
I got my sample 3 grams.....it was just a smidge under 4. That's always nice. I couldn't find any info online about the strain...Fleetwood OG?? Mick Fleetwood's favorite herb perhaps? Packaging could use some tweaking which muska seemed willing to do. Vacuum seal it a couple more times would be recommend...although I could not smell it at all until I opened the seal. Once I did....WOW. Very Pungent sweet ganja smell. Had to get it into one of my jars before the whole place smelled. A nice touch was a label with the date harvested and date shipped. This was picked mid december so it's still very fresh. Cure was good enough to produce that smell but will leave a little out before I grind it up. I put it in the vape and the first hit is unlike any others I've tried. It's hard to describe but its kinda overpowering almost. The rest of the tokes I take are just fine but that first one really knocks your socks off. I'd like to hear if others noticed that when using a vape? Overall a really nice bud for the price.
-
onestopshop: thanks so much for the "raising the bar" comment, that's exactly our objective. we're sorry we can't do a smaller sample for you. the slow liquidity of bitcoins is the greatest challenge for everyone here and we encourage creative people to find a solution for all of us.
jackstraw: thank you for the very kind words sir, we certainly do appreciate "WOW". the Fleetwood strain is proprietary to the Muskabuzz and has no relation with that particular musician, though you may not be as far off as one would think.
-
muskabuzz,
Sorry I am taking so long to post you on the Good List.
You are making major headway.
Congrads on the successful startup!
Hope to here more good reviews.
Support your new vendor!

waiting with anticipation. Order still in the mail :( :-\
-
My sample was 3.6 grams and Ive smoked it, got me really high.. I enjoyed it but if you fix up your packaging a bit to save the nug shape a bit you will do better business. Just seal the bad w/o vacuum first after you flatten out the bud and then put another seal around with the vacuum on *preferably black plastic or paper wrap inside the envelope." also! :) thanks man really like your stuff. I still have a gram and am gonna save it and jar it. 8)
-
thank you all for the kind words.
a note about our vacuum process: uniquely we vacuum pack for sr clients right at the moment of peak curing. one experienced smoker posting to this forum recently said he had never had anything quite like the 1st hit of Fleetwood OG Kush. the reason is sealed in freshness and that's what our smellPortal accomplishes: cloaked effervescence. some of the most pungent cannabis on earth is completely masked from the postal authorities and many of our clients consider this miraculous.
you can see a picture of the smellPortal at http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/item/18565
that said, we love your feedback that helps us improve and you can expect it will be included in a second version of the smellPortal that will be released very soon.

Ordered the intro special solely based off of reviews. will update when I get it but just wanted to bump this vendors thread up cause he seems legit and needs to get started.
-
...... Muskabuzz is the Egg McMuffin of Silk Road
..... A pleasure to do business with ... In every way possible .... Product? Top notch.
-
I can't attest to the quality of muska's bud as I'm fresh out of BTC for the time being, but when he first popped on the scene I was in touch with him and he was professional and prompt with his communications.
I'll def add him to the list when I need to re-up.
Welcome muska, and I'm glad to see you're establishing yourself!
-
I've tried a dozen or so strains so far on SR, and the Fleetwood OG Kush is one to remember. One hit off the vape and I was done for a good 40 minutes. Weighed in .4 over, discreetly packed, great price.
-
great vendor with killer product! Fleetwood Mac is actually my favorite band, so when i saw this I quickly bought some ;) Very high-end product, one of the coolest highs i have had. I am very satisfied that I bought this, although it didn't last very long... :P
-
Order a 1/2oz of Muskabuzz's Fleetwood OG after reading so many wonderful things about it.
Communication: Muska is on top of their game when it comes to communication. We had a slight hiccup with decrypting my order message, but it was quickly resolved and the shipment was processed shortly thereafter.
Score: 5/5
Shipping/Packaging: Marked in transit on Saturday and arrived across the continent on Monday - it does NOT get any quicker than this, people! While the packaging was stealthy and completely concealed any odor, I was hoping that the buds would not have been as compressed as they were. The compression plus insanely [awesome] sticky buds means that unfortunately some of that lovely stickiness is gets left on the packaging. But all in all, I was satisfied.
Score: 4/5
Product: I opened up the package upstairs, and only for a few minutes, but it managed to make the entire house reek. Kusky goodness was everywhere! Buds looked nice and were ridiculously sticky - I'm talking where you wash your hands and they are STILL sticky. Haven't tried it out yet, but I feel bad my grinder!
FINALLY tried some out last night!!! I threw a smallish bud in the grinder and quickly realized that on the days that I grind this bud up that I can probably skip the gym. So sticky that it is a chore to grind up, but I wouldn't trade it. Pack up the binger and after the first couple of hits I was like Keanu Reeves in Bill & Ted.. WHOA.
Felt an immediately foggy and fuzzy feeling in the head. A few moments later and it crept down my entire body. I managed to get a ton of clean hits from one pack because it burns extremely slowly. Not a ton of flavor to the smoke, unless I just wasn't getting much that night. As I got ready for bed, I felt incredibly weighed down, but also weightless at the same time (wtf?!). Being a general dummy walking in the dark, I happened to run into the door frame with my elbow pretty damn hard. But I did not feel a thing and actually laughed about it.
Sleep came quickly and lasted long - I woke up feeling pretty good and not groggy. Even though I don't think it's possible, I still feel a LITTLE high. The Fleetwood does NOT fuck around!
Score: 6/5 (Yep, it's GOOD)
Pics should be posted tonight! :D

Sidenote: There was a slight problem with my order, so I contacted Muska before finalizing to see if anything could be done. Muska was above and beyond what I expected, and for that, I am putting him up there with Cali, Anarcho, Christy and all the other top notch cannabis vendors we've got here.
Overall: 15/15

☺ ~₪¤§ Fleetwood OG Kush §¤₪~ ☺
♥♣♥♣♦♠♥♣♦♠♣♥♣♦♠♥♣♦♠♥♣♦♠♥♣♦♠♥♣♦♠♥♣♦
• Packaging:
• No smell whatsoever and not one bud was smashed even the tiniest bit!
• Best anti-crush packaging I have seen to date on the road, props!
• Fast Shipping!
• Great thought and effort, extreme attention to detail!
• This vendor really cares about customer satisfaction, just down to every last little detail was perfect.
• Product
• **I have never smoked a Kush strain before, thought I should mention this**
• Appearance
• A light green shade with many orange hairs, looks just like the picture but better!!!
• Trichomes covering every piece of the bud.
• Well manicured, cured thoroughly.
• Great bag appeal, dense and heavy.
• High
• I would say it's definitely a hybrid strain, Indica dominant's my guess. I could not find any information about its lineage, I actually couldn't find anything on Google about it.
• When I smoke it at night before bed it helps me sleep, but if I smoke after I wake up it also gets me going for the day. This confuses me but is a tell tale sign of a hybrid, this is the ideal weed for any occasion :) !!!
• Smell
• Kinda citrus'y smell but it fills the lungs, potent smell.
• Doesn't really stink up a room alone, but when smoke will smell up your whole house with piney citrus goodness. No need for air fresheners!
• Vendor
• Great communication the whole time, really speedy at responding to messages.
• As I said before, this vendor really cares about the customers, even messaged me a few days later asking me for detailed feedback. I have never been asked by a vendor to leave feedback, shows the vendor is committed to
his customers and welcomes feedback/criticism which will help both muskabuzz and future customers.
• I would recommend Muskabuzz to my mom :P!
• Pictures (Check out these Trichomes! Taken using a ROOTED Nexus S 4G, ICS 4.0.4, GummyNexus v1.2.0 ROM, Matr1x Kernel v19.5 BFS, Voodoo Color/Sound, 5 MP Camera w/ flash, Touch-to-focus. Exif and Metadata wiped from images. JPEG, 2560x1920, 96 dpi Horizontal and Vertical resolution, Bit Depth 24)

My only complaint is that you do not have any other strains listed :'(.
Thank you so much Muskabuzz for a great experience!
/END (ADDERALL influenced) RANT!

james we are sorry for the delayed response. when considering the mcmuffin one needs a very large and long perspective, abstracting more and more until one can truly see the sandwich as a symbol. on that basis, we do thank you profusely for the analogy.
also, the 3rd batch of the Fleetwood is now available with a delivery preference to established clients such as those so finely represented in this most blush-worthy of threads. we have allocated a still larger batch to the silk road this go and look forward to serving as many of you as possible.
-
Muskabuzz: you are my new favorite.
Purchased on Thursday, shipped Friday night and made it to the east coast in four days.
The packaging is not only incredibly safe and discreet, but the inside is honestly just clever and 100% Fed proof.
It's great fucking packaging.
The weed itself is honestly beautiful. The nugs are rather small, which is my only complaint, but there are a few decent sized ones and a few bigger ones. The smell is so crisp and earthy, but skunky with a touch of sweet and sour. Very crystally, and the trim job is almost an A+. A few leaves left, but it was a great smoke nonetheless. Over all, this shit is REALLY potent. Honestly, if you want power and deliciousness buy from muska. Totally worth the money, and the customer service and responsiveness is spot on. Happy toking all.
-
qwerfdsa: your feedback is remarkably thoughtful and very much appreciated. we the Muskabuzz are beseeched to serve clients such as yourself and to live up to your enthusiasm.
trebly so these magnificent photographs; thank you for the effort and skill, it is inspiring (recursively) to have inspired it.
if you do would like to order the Fleetwood indeed now is the time, we have a one ounce listing live.

I wish that my pictures could actually capture the greatness that is Fleetwood OG!
Easily one of the best strains I've come across during my travels on the SR.
-
I've tried a dozen or so strains so far on SR, and the Fleetwood OG Kush is one to remember. One hit off the vape and I was done for a good 40 minutes. Weighed in .4 over, discreetly packed, great price.
thank you jim, we shall remember this post.
a new crop of the Fleetwood is now available on silk road and we must say it is rather stunning.

I think this is a great idea! I've often wanted to try your fleetwood og but the price scared me off. However if it really is what people say, id have no problem paying. I think samples for this reason are helpful. Id be happy to buy a sample. Great idea.
-
Blue Cheer please accept our gratitude for taking the time to create this lovely and personal feedback, we consider it an honor to serve you, dave.

xx: shadow: thank you, your analysis is objective yet very endearing simultaneously; we appreciate your time and effort to say nothing of your mother who we imagine quite wonderful in her own right. we are equally delighted to first announce, here in this traditional haunt, that Fleetwood is currently available:
1ounce http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/ccd46e0fa5
2 ounce http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/137f76723e
to all: enjoy.
