Hey Guys,
So im looking for someone to buy a QP / HP from who has different strains and i came across californiacannibas and his bud looked real good. He has about 1300 fans, but not that much feedback regarding quality (indepth at least) and almost nothing in the forums. Plus most of his listings that have pictures that look fire, nobody seems to buy them or the feedback is about 4 months old... Has anyone had experience ordering from him in regarding to quality of bud? Thanks

I bought a zip of his BlowfishxUK Cheese, it was some very good bud. He has a lot of listings that he changes out so that may be why some listings do not have reviews yet. As far as I can tell he's a good vendor
-
This is some of his recent feedback. Feedback which he states is from a competitor...lol.
This is actually somewhere closer to a 2/5 or 3/5 review. This was my first time with this vendor and I will NEVER order from him again.
Pros: Weed arrived promptly.
Cons: Piss poor stealth and packaging. I've been on the road for 2.5 years and this is the worst I've seen. Total amateur hour. The vendor managed to get me a total of zero of the strains I chose - perhaps someone out there is thinking the same thing and we got swapped orders. That said, none of these strains are the actual strains. Each of my four samples is the exact same petrified, yellow-brown, zero-kief outdoor looking crap. I wouldn't buy this at all if I could see it in person beforehand, and gun to my head I wouldn't pay more than $30/8th.
STAY AWAY.
I've seen this charge leveled against this vendor before. The above feedback was for a 1/4oz. I do believe his pictures have not changed since he first started.
This vendor does not meet my requirements for purchasing. However, you may have different standards.

I ordered off of him once.His bho was pretty potent and smelled good, but left a bad fuel taste.

I'm pretty sure a vendor can't change the picture once it's linked to a listing.

Worst fucking pot for the worst price I have ever gotten on Silk Road. His account should have been banned for the transaction in my opinion. Given the new vending standards I feel like some of these broken rules should have had him banned. Here's my old review. This dumb bastard sent me my own plaintext address in a PM days after shipping, so he definitely keeps addresses.
==============================================================================================================================
I placed an order with this gentleman late last Thursday for some marijuana and I'm rather concerned at the moment.
I messaged him Sunday or so asking why it hadn't been shipped. He said he was behind on orders, and offered to cancel. I chose to allow him to proceed. I assumed he'd ship it before the weekend. It was a misunderstanding. Perhaps I should have clearly asked if he could ship early. I had messaged him beforehand and though I had asserted that I would like it as quickly as possible. It was a decent order. A QP of Kryptonite OG. He shipped Monday after the message Sunday.
(I don't log in to SR until I receive order)
I get my order Wednesday. Pick it up, take it home and open it. At first glance, the labels aren't adhesive and it looks like it came from a personal address. I open it and find it to be just a loose tube of Foodsaver wrap tucked under a shopping bag in a priority box. In between the wrap were intermittent pieces of wet newspaper.
It has my SR username written on it three times between all the layers. (seriously)
With a sense of foreboding I open the bag and smell the bud. Undercured, poorly flushed. Two different phenotypes. Seeds.
$1100...
(fuck)
Review of product:
This Kryptonite OG sucks guys. It consists of either two different strains or two phenotypes, is poorly cured, poorly flushed and has seeds in it. It has a decent trim, but there isn't a nug of the "green phenotype" that weighs over a gram or so, and the "orange phenotype" is a collection of malformed and overdried, long colas. Just big pieces of stem with intermittent buds growing at the nodes. I'll take pics if I need to substantiate my claims, but since I'm on the old Blargh approved reviewers list, that should hopefully give me some credentials in this situation. The buds burn and leave like a weird, sooty ash behind.
So I log into SR to message the seller and ask him what the hell is up with this order he sent me and I have three messages in my inbox. I couldn't figure them out at first because the grammar was fucked but essentially he was checking the order and it had came up as "out for delivery" or something, and he was saying stuff like, "if you were only home this wouldn't have happened".. and all kinds of weird shit.
(because we all know USPS tracking is completely AWESOME) Am I right? Either way, completely irrelevant. Not everyone is on TOR 24/7 looking at drug porn.
So I'm sitting there.. wondering what the fuck he's going on about. And I realize he's basically accusing me of stealing the package, or something because I didn't finalize or answer his messages from the day before.
DO MOST BUYERS ON HERE IMMEDIATELY FINALIZE ON ORDERS? WHAT THE HELL DOES AUTOFINALIZE EXIST FOR THEN?
Dude... I've got about 16k spent on here with less than 2% refunds, no autofinalizations and almost a year on the road. Does this guy think I'm trying to fuck him over for some reason? I saw a new vendor and tried to get in early to build a good relationship for purchases, and this guy is acting like a god damn nutjob before I can even message him.
**Oh, I forgot to mention... for some reason he decided to send my shipping address unencrypted to me in one of the three initial messages.. three days after the order was marked in transit.**
So I ask why the fuck he sent my information to me unencrypted, and why he still has my information. I got an attitude with him and an argument ensued.
Well, according to the seller, he was keeping buyer information because people like to pull the "dude, I didn't get my package line"; implying he keeps customer information for possible nefarious/security reasons. In violation of the terms of service in the sellers guide.
I offered him a 25% refund in order to finalize the transaction. He's calling me an extortionist and telling me to leave a 5/5. He then offered the refund and told me to send him my bitcoin address "encrypted of course"... which is sort of an oxymoron, but whatever.. and I haven't heard a reply in three days.
So.. to recap.
1. Poor packaging. SR username written on product.
2. Poor quality product for top shelf price. (seriously, I could have gotten a QP from HumboltsFinest for $800 twice as good as this stuff. or a $1000 Qp from ogbryan, etc...)
3. Accusatory, unprofessional, emotional messages and demeanor before I can even log into SR and message him.
4. Kept and sent my personal information to me unencrypted in a personal message.
5. Unwilling to reach a resolution.
So basically I've had this guy call me a thief, an extortionist, a liar, and a prick. He threatened to blacklist me in the vendor forum (he doesn't have access to it yet..) said he'll have staff delete my feedback if I leave him anything negative after the transaction and he's now not answering my messages. Well fuck it. I'm done messing around with it and I'll let SR Resolution deal with it.
So you would recommend him then? Or no?

I have ordered from CC several times. International.
The package arrived faster than others and the stealth was excellent.
Even if people opened it, they would not have had an idea that there were 3 ounces of weed there.
Some of his strains are not very good but there are some that are good.
