Great to see an Irish vendor, welcome aboard! Free samples and reduction in prices have to happen though, especially if you offer to EU.

Prices @ 1 BTC/7 EUR;
1 gram  ~ €25
3 grams ~ €64
7 grams ~ €140

Lastly, why is there 1 review yet he has 0 transactions?

Yeah it's nice to see an Irish vendor but this guys prices are ridiculous.

€140 for a quarter?? I could go to a local dealer, buy his shitty little bags, sell them back on here and make a profit at those prices.

Eights should be €50 at most.

I got 10 grams from an EU seller recently for about €110, arrived here in 3 days. Next day delivery would be nice and all but I'm not gonna pay almost twice the price.

Welcome aboard but I can't see too many people buying till the price comes down.

Got my sample today, 0.5g of Amnesia Haze :) Came after about 5 days to the UK but I think the Olympics is slowing down the post.

Packaging: It was discrete from the outside and professionally packaged so it was great from the outside. Inside the packaging wasn't really subtle and could be improved. The bud was vacuum-sealed and obviously lost some shine from it but it didn't lose potency at all. 7/10

Product: It was not pungent but you could tell it was going to be a good smoke from the appearance. It had a very Sativa look to it. I smoked 0.1g and got a really nice hybrid style high that relaxed me and made me pretty content for a few hours. Lovely taste and lovely haze. 9/10

Would buy for this strain again as daRwin is the only SR vendor in the British area who stocks this, I think. Good communication as well and responded quickly to messages :)

Glad to hear your sample arrived sselevol. Delivery to the UK should normally be a lot faster than that. I think you are right about the Olympics.

With regards to earlier posters talking about prices, I have lowered them significantly from what they were initially but I still do realize that my herb prices are very high, and I have explained why that is in my profile. Good quality smoke is very expensive to buy in Ireland due to the large volumes of low quality sprayed and damp commercial schwag going around, and it is allowing dealers to charge more for the premium stuff. And people are paying it because they are sick of the crap.

I could do eights for €50 if I was selling this locally but I have to charge a little extra when taking all the additional costs and difficulties doing this online into consideration, such as TSR's 10% cut, the wild btc exchange rate fluctuations, exchange fees, shipping and packaging costs etc etc.

I'm currently charging about €70 for an eigth, which for herb of this quality I think is a reasonable price for the Irish market. I am seeing more and more €50 bags of good quality weed with as little as 2g these days. Keep in mind that I am buying this weed at Irish prices, so am forced to sell for Irish prices. Ordering Irish has many advantages, but if price is really a huge sticking point, then it probably is worth taking the risk of ordering internationally and waiting longer for your order.

My prices on the pharms I have in stock (oxycodone, cyclizine, ritalin/methylphenidate) are pretty competitive though.
