Title: Cannabis Vendor's Review Thread version 2.0: The Grand Wizard's Smoking Lounge
Post by: TheGrandWizard on January 03, 2013, 12:43 pm
Since the original "Honest Cannabis Vendor's Review Thread" has been hijacked by Uniwiz and is now being used as a political sounding board, I thought we could use a new venue for discussion. 

If you've purchased cannabis, hashish, hash oil, cannabis edibles, etc. and want to discuss the experience here, this is the place.  The only rules are:

- do not discuss the specifics of shipping (i.e. "The packaging was genius: I've never seen anyone package sheets of hashish as chocolate bars before!!")  Comments that the shipping was unacceptable are OK, but I would recommend sharing specific suggestions for improvement with the vendor, not with the crowd.

- if you were ripped off let us know, but understand that there is very little we can do to help you get your bitcoins back -- and nothing at all if you have finalized early.

- I'm not going to declare cannabis vendors "honest" or "dishonest."  Their records should speak for themselves: if you have hundreds of people singing their praises chances are they are honest and if you see a bunch of complaints chances are they are dishonest.  Use your own judgment and understand that there's always a risk whenever you buy drugs.  This is a list of reviews from individuals, some of whom may have their own agendas.  (If people create fake feedback, there's nothing to stop them from creating glowing reviews on a forum thread). 

I'm waiting on a couple of orders and will be placing the reviews here.   I welcome everyone else who is tired of the nonsense on the other thread to come here so we can return to doing what we do best: reviewing cannabis.

Vendor: Emerald Triangle
Strain: Blue Ox (1/4 oz)
Price: $75 w/shipping
Quality: The Usual Six Stars Across the Board

Emerald Triangle has become my go-to guy when I need good, inexpensive smoke delivered quickly and with a minimum of drama.  This transaction was no exception. I ordered on Thursday afternoon Eastern time: it was marked in transit a few hours later and arrived in my mailbox this morning.

According to the listing, Blue Ox is a blueberry-derived strain which retains Indica painkilling qualities but isn't quite so tranquilizing.  A quick puff shows this is indeed the case.  The Grand Wizard is fighting off a cold and the body aches just melted away with a quick, floral-fruity exhale.  Yet another fine bag of weed from SR's most consistent vendor: I have yet to wait longer than four days (including holidays) for an Emerald Triangle order to cross the country and land merrily in my lap.

First, the Grand Wizard owes Uniwiz a huge apology.  Sorry about the intemperate language.

Secondly, a harm reduction tip: be careful with the clonazepam.  Behaving like an asshole on SR forums has been the least of the Grand Wizard's worries over the past 48 hours.  This stuff packs a punch and because it has a long half life it can creep up on you before you know it.  I was an idiot: you shouldn't be.

Hey Mr.Wizard...
How the hell are you..?
I'm glad to see you started a new thread here - not that I'm unhappy with the other thread - but it would be nice to see a review thread uncluttered with opinions and speculations - keeping it real and to the point. I sometimes go to a forum to find specific info on a vendor's offerings, and come out none the wiser. I know you have given me some sterling reviews in the past, but I thought perhaps your thread here could do with a bit of a boost, so I've come to offer you a little Durban Poison from the first batches of the new season. I've been getting some very young Poison this season, but the first of the Red Poison has just arrived. It has some seeds (waiting for the seedless to arrive)
I've also put up an experimental listing of sieved Poison (I insist you try this out) painstakingly sifted by myself...
Personally, I think it's as close to KIEF as one can get, without actually claiming to be kief.
I have frozen the weed to isolate the resin crystals and then sifted it through a medium sized sieve.
I would like a professional opinion of my latest dumb idea.
PM me on my vendor page (I VERY seldom visit the forums) and I will open up a stealth listing for you for samples of both the new poison and my sifted weed....
