OK, so I know there is a Cannabis Vendor Review Thread (Big thanks to Unwiz), but I wanted to give a specific acknowledgement of the high standard of service and integrity to PuffBuddy.
I have done a fair number of transactions with PuffBuddy over the past year. Anybody still remember when he did a rolled joint in every order? That was so cool. Wish he was still in a position to do that. Anyway, back to the message... EVERY order I've done with him has had flawless packaging and just awesome ship times. These aspects of his business are consistently top-notch.
Product quality has been a little variable, but I think the individual product descriptions have usually reflected this, and I have never felt disappointed by it... Until my last order.
Price, package and delivery were stellar as usual, but the product was just not right. One PM to PuffBuddy was all it took to get a set of options to remedy the situation, any of which I would call customer friendly and aimed at keeping business coming back. Now, as I mentioned before, I have a solid record with PuffBuddy, which I'm sure guides his response to issues. In fact, his vendor page ( http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/3ee749d068 ) lays out in some detail how buyer stats are figured in. There was no push-back, just simply the intent to keep happy a customer happy.
It worked.
Give PuffBuddy a try. I think he will always try to Do The Right Thing for customers that: 1) Read AND follow the FAQ on his page, and 2) Give him an honest chance to make the deal right.

same story here. actually placed my first order with PuffBuddy recently even though I've been here as long as he has. with 50+ tx's, never have had a problem.
No need to go into details, but i feel my issue was in the same ballpark as DrDizz.
Based on the circumstances, I felt PuffBuddy resolved it in a manner that was really fair to me, and most likely didn't put him out either.

I agree :D

needs a +1 good long time vendor.

I've had a bad experience with him. When I notified him that he sold me a pure indica strain (chocolate chunk) while he advertised it as a sativa dominant one, he became aggressive and irrational, accusing me of trying to start a pissing match or something of the sort. I asked him if he was trolling (he was exhibiting signs of being one), but then he blocked me. Buyer beware, conduct your own research with all information given, and be wary of trusting vendors' descriptions of their product, for most of the time they try to blow their product up to make it seem greater than it really is.

I have had only nothing but good experiences with Puffbuddy as well. He has the best deals for decent dank to awesome dank and he is very honest. When I ask him about a specific strain he is selling at the moment, he has no problem telling me that its decent bud and nothing great. In my book that gets an A+. On top of that he has been around for a while now too.

Since I have nothing to hide, here is the communications between myself and snake peel, starts at the bottom of this post, works its way up. Snake peel I did not block you, I just did not see the need to respond to an insulting comment, look at my feedback I am far from a "troll". No offense to Swaizbud, I believe you are a fine vendor, but I was going off USA based vendor's when I gave my response. Also why am I supposed to save you money? Swazibuds listing is always up, seems like you should have ordered from him, anyway here is what was said between PuffBuddy and snake peel..

PuffBuddy(100) Swazi bud is in Africa and has not near the reputation as us, sure if you want 100% risk and to wait 3 weeks. I'm not looking to get into a pissing match here, there are many strains that are known by the same name. You seem to think I am attempting to deceive people with what may or may not be an honest mistake. You seem fairly passionate here, what is it I can do, or are you just wanting to point out an error? 10 days read

snake peel The user "swazibud" sells his sativa weed for $4.375 per gram, and pays shipping. http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/item/853d3745bd
It's not a matter of me enjoying the product or not, its more a matter of me getting what I thought I was paying for. The strain youre selling is "purecannabis indica" (sources: http://www.planetskunk.com/chocolate-chunk-cannabis-seeds-p-147.html , http://www.cannabissearch.com/strains/chocolate-chunk/ , http://www.marijuanatipster.com/Chocolate Chunk) while you advertise it as being the more sought after sativa variation. I have no doubt I will enjoy the effects of this chocolate chunk, but right now I am in no shortage of such indica strains and I intend to get sativa.
I understand you trust your dealer with what he says, but come on, it took me a quick 30-second google search to find out some pretty crucial information about the strain you're selling. 11 days read

PuffBuddy(100) I don't know of anyone selling around here for $5 a gram, can you tell me which vendor? If you did not enjoy the product let me know and I will see what I can do. We try to sell good weed at good prices, we do not claim to sell the best weed, just good weed at a good price. We try to rotate strains at a good price and sometimes certain strains are better than others, although I enjoy the Chocolate Chunk myself. As for the sativa vs indica, I do not grow it and can only go by what I am told buy the grower. 12 days read

snake peel Hello Puffbuddy,
I've done some research, and your strain "chocolate chunk" is actually a pure indica, and not at all sativa. Yet you chose to label it as a sativa in the product description.Why's that? Also, I don't see how I saved money by buying from you, since your weed costs about 12 dollars per gram while the best seller's costs under 5 dollars a gram, and is better quality weed.

puffbuddy is the man. i just placed my first order with him and havent even received it yet and can already tell you this guy is legit. Something happened with his PGP and he asked me to re-send which i would gladly do 100/100 times, and for me having to do this he offered me a fatter sack. Totally unnecessary on his part, but super classy.
Snake Peeler, as a completely unbiased 3rd party, i dont see any aggression or anything in any of his responses to you. The fact that you are trying to compare someone selling $5.00/g nugs in Africa to anything going on in the USA shows that you may not understand exactly whats the difference in value is in different location. Would you compare prices of trees you purchase in Amsterdamn at a cafe to prices you pay from your regular street dealer in middle america? I dont believe anyone would. It would be comparing apples to oranges. Furthermore, he told you hes not a grower and is just going off what he was told. What more do you want?
Lastly, the definition of a troll is completely misused and you really shouldnt call a vendor a troll unless you have more proof then what is being shown here. Sometimes vendors suck, sometimes they are only decent, but if you are going to slander them, at least have real reasons. Just my two cents

I don't buy weed here very often, I live in a land of plenty, so it seems almost like a waste to order from elsewhere.
I've tried PuffBuddy's Ice Cream, and so far his weed has been some of the best I've seen here, or anywhere.
Packaging = awesome, no crushed buds and no smell until you open things up.
Appearance = well trimmed, big buds, covered in that sweet THC sugar.
Taste/Smell = Mellow and fruity smell/taste
Potency = Damn good, not much more powerful than my local connects, but I've been smoking for over 20 years, so I don't buy shit.
Cure = Well cured. Burns clean and no grassy aftertaste.
Only 10/10 because it wasn't free, otherwise it'd be 12. :P
Overall I'd say PuffBuddy is doing a bangup job of bringing some well grown weed to the road.
Represent! My Canadian brother!

All of my experiences with Puffbuddy were great. I choose not to buy from him anymore though because i don't like the way his more recent bud looks. He used to have some good bud up for reasonable pricing but now it seems to be all mids. I'm sure that will change, until then all i can do is keep my eyes open. =D

i just received my first package from him. took 2 days after marked in transit. came in .5g heavy. buds are ok. not the best, not the worst. about what id expect for 40 an eigth!

I love PB. They price their product according to what the actual quality is and always deliver on point or slightly over when it comes to weight. They're shipping practices are nearly untouchable -- always a quick turnaround even when they're swamped.
