Starting this because I could not find one. I'll gladly have this thread locked once Sally starts her own when she returns from vacation.
***NOTE: SALLY IS ON VACATION UNTIL 5/24. FOR LIMITED LISTINGS CHECK OUT 420BLINDMAN'S COVERAGE (http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/bc73c406d1)***

Communication\Shipping\Packaging: Aces in every regard! Exchanged a few messages off the bat - courteous and prompt responses. Samples were shipped shortly thereafter and made their way cross-country in less than 3 business days! Packaging was excellent - pro all the way. Zero odor and NO compression. The buds came out exactly how they look in the pictures (shot them about 20 minutes after pulling them from the mail). If her packaging is this secure for a sample, I'm sure bulk orders are even better.
========================================================================
Product: Received three strains: Mendo Ghost, Skywalker and Train Walker. All looking sexcellent, Train Walker most of all!

Frosty buds with large orange hairs. Perfectly cured. An absolutely LOVELY tangerine/grapefruit aroma. Loading up the vape left some trichs on my fingertips! The taste was a slightly more subtle version of the smell - sweet and citrusy. The high kicks in pretty quickly and is entirely cerebral. It was as if someone sent my head up into the upper atmosphere! A great, uplifting and fun stone. I found everything to be extra hilarious.
***edit: also threw some in the bong - perfect flush left nothing but white ash***

Skywalker

Large and somewhat dense frosty nug. Just like the Mendo, my fingertips felt as is I'd been eating Cheetos for ten minutes straight after handling the Skywalker. Unfortunately, I'm congested right now, so I couldn't get a handle on the aroma of the bud. It was something, and relative noticeable, but I'll have to update this later on. Even though I'm clogged up I could STILL taste the sugary sweet taste of the Skywalker - delicious stuff. High is hazy and unfocused - very heady. Been hanging out watching TV and happily snacking away in some sort of coma-like state. Great strain for just chilling out!

These buds were so beautiful that I felt kinda bad breaking them up. As soon as I did, I could smell a hint of fruit in the air. After grinding up the lovely bud (that was so covered in trichs that it looks white instead of bright green), I noticed a more complex aroma. A combination of earthy and spicy with a undertone of fruity sweetness. The taste was even more interesting! On the inhale, Train Walker is was sugary sweet and earthy/mossy on the exhale. Give it a moment, and the TW finishes with a berry aftertaste. Really cool shit! The high is super super cerebral. Expect a one-track mind with little else mattering in the peripheral. Pretty upbeat and motivating, you probably won't be lazing around with this one.
========================================================================
OVERALL: I don't have a single bad thing to say so far, and based upon how her products look I don't see how that will change after a review. Can't wait to review these strains.

Bloody hell.. looks as if QicPic is having some issues at the moment.
-
Ok - looks like Freedom Hosting overall is having some hiccups.
Pics are now loading, albeit slower than octogenarians fuck.
Enjoy!

Bump for updated review and to let everyone know that Sally is back from vacation (you should be excited if everything is as good as the Mendo was)!
-
Skywalker reviewed!
-
Train Walker reviewed!
-
Just picked up some Pandora's Box, and man, it looks GOOD! Stanky as hell, too. A strong, strong cirtrus/skunk uppercut hit me right when I popped open the bag.

Will update with a review after I give it a shot.

Yes top notch, hope to be a regular customer. Two day delivery, very nice stealth, great intact buds, and exactly the kind of product I like to enjoy: "All of our strains are grown indoor with organic soil and fed Advanced Nutrients. NO PESTICIDES are used, EVER!"
It will be a day or two before I can try the Jet Fuel, and I will be eager with anticipation when that time arrives!

Sally is definitely on my short list of awesome vendors. Still haven't had a chance to taste the Pandora's Box, but I've yet to be steered wrong yet.
Should have a bit of Jet Fuel to photograph by the end of this week. :D

I reviewed SativaSally's Mendo Ghost over at my thread: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=161831.0
Here it is copied and pasted:
-------------------------Start of Quote---------------------------------
SATIVASALLY 's MENDO GHOST HAS ARRIVED!
So first of all, this is the feedback I left for her at SR:
" ***START OF MY FEEDBACK***
Mendo Ghost 1/2 oz
ORDERED: July 16, 2013, 11:29 pm UTC
SHIPPED: July 17, 2013, 2:48 pm UTC
RECEIVED: July 20, 2013, about 4 hours ago
PACKAGING/STEALTH: 10/10, right up there with the best, includes fake business, smell-proof obviously, many many layers (certainly more than the average vendor). Fast too, standard priority.
WEIGHT: 12/10 I ordered a half O, and received 18.21g, which I weighed on a frequently-calibrated scale. This is one super generous vendor, which indicates to me this vendor cares more about the customers and compassionate care than about the profit margins.
QUALITY: 9/10 The largest bud I weighed was 3.22g, and the smallest was 0.25g, with the average probably being around 0.8g. The smell is just an absolute DELIGHT! This is one of those RARE DANKS that smells like the sweetest of indicas, like the sweet sweet Romulan, with an underlying touch of Skunk smell. And the color is a dark green. So you're probably thinking this is one indica-heavy baby. WRONG! Just as I wanted, and just as SativaSally described it in the listing, it is powerfully sativa-heavy. Of course it has an indica body high component as well, but the ratio would be 75% Sativa high and 25% Indica high, very similar to all the different Blue Dreams I have had. So in my book, this is one rare strain (not much info about it online either) that smells and looks like a dank indica but is in fact sativa-heavy, which a sativa-lover like myself appreciates. I have only vaporized one 0.30g bowl of it 3.5 hours ago in a high-end desktop vaporizer, and I have to say, the taste is just as deliciously sweet as the smell, and again, the high is certainly more fitting for the lovers of the spaced out sativa high, while it does provide a relaxing effect too, but no couchlock. Oh and the cure is perfect, right to my taste, feels like sticky candy in the hands, not at all moist, and due to the perfect cure I am able to grind it up real finely, the way I like it for my vaporizer. And the trimming is quite well done with only a few super sugary leaves here and there, but mostly pure bud. Almost 4 hours after vaping, still feeling lingering effects, but I of course am about to re-vape right now.
OVERALL: AMAZING vendor, I am going to have to recommend SativaSally to all my friends over at the forums, just as I was recommended to her by a couple of folks. Thanks again!
***END OF FEEDBACK*** "
I just left that feedback just minutes ago, I think it includes a pretty comprehensive review of the vendor.
As for the bud itself, Mendo Ghost as far I can tell is a pretty rare strain, with very little info about it online as well, so I was quite excited to try it. The strain truly does smell, appear, and taste as though it is a super dank, near fire level indica, but has a multidimensional high that is definitely sativa-heavy, as the spacing out and the "conscious-dreaming" effect is quite apparent, but there is less anxiety generated by this strain than is generated by other pure sativa strains such as Green Crack, Sour Disel, etc, probably due to the indica genetics, but rest assured, no overwhelming laziness or couchlock is apparent, even after the high peaks.
By the way, when I vaporized the extra-fat bowl ( I typically vape 0.15-0.20g per 3 hours, so the 0.30g I vaped was particularly for this review), I did it after not vaporizing/consuming cannabis for about 12-14 hours (since yesterday), which I planned so that my review wouldn't be affected by lingering effects from a previous session, just an FYI. And I vape until the bud is super dark brown, so there IS a little bit of combustion that occurs at the end, but I do that intentionally to make certain all the cannabinoids, not just the THC, have been annihilated, ;D
SO PICK UP THAT MENDO GHOST WHILE IT IS STILL UP PEOPLE, AND TELL ME HOW IT GOES!
I will update my list of cannabis vendors on the intro post to include SativaSally too.

As a long, long, long time customer of 420blindman (even since before PurpleLotus ever became a vendor) I can say with complete confidence this is as top notch of a weed vendor as exists here on SR. Never once been disappointed, never late (aside from the possible holiday or other heavy traffic time like mother's day and valentine's day). Sativa Sally is just as excellent as her predecessor and I couldn't possibly recommend any other vendor higher than SativaSally. Product is ALWAYS consistent and once you see that beautiful sticky icky product they offer, you just know exactly what you are getting everytime.
I have tried every straint the two of them have EVER offered so to sit here and give detailed reviews of each... well I'm way too fucking high for that... Thanks SS!

I won't go into the details of my order, let's just say it was custom.
Order arrived within one day of being told it was in transit. I never opened the package so I cannot review stealth or appearance. I passed it off to a friend who only said "Ho lee fuk. Impressive" This guy isn't typically a man of few words, so maybe I will hear more later, but that is what I have so far. Nothing but good things..
