There are a lot of people that keep posting pics of bud they bought that looks like shit. Well when you don't know what you're lookin' for chances are you can get ripped off very easily. I decided to make this picture guide to help new smokers out. It might not help much but I was hoping maybe I could save some ones money by showing them what their bud SHOULD look like when they buy it compared to something it shouldn't look like..also don't be afraid to ask questions and trying to get the best. When you go out actually shopping for a computer intending to buy the right one for you, you wouldn't half inspect. You would touch the keyboard, surf the computer and see how it is, how fast it is, what it does and ask questions to the employees about it. No different when you're buying weed.
You should inspect the buds or bag or w/e the bud is in. Smell it and see if it appeals to you. LOOK at it and make sure it looks good. Feel it and make sure it's not a skimpy bag with a lot of shake in it. If you see something you are concerned about ask "why does this bud look like this?" or "Do you have any better weed than this?" Dealers don't mind. In the end you're the one giving them the money so they aren't gonna get all nasty with you. At least the ones I've dealt with haven't. And if it's crumbs DON'T buy it. Even if your dealer tells you something like "I just broke some of it up, it's still good" I don't care if it's good or not. When you are inspecting bud it's way easier to tell if there is something else in it. If you are inspecting shake there could be ANYTHING that's green added to it to make it blend in. Even dried up pieces of lettuce looks like bud some time..
And don't buy anything wet, especially if they are selling to you in weight. It should be obvious why wet weed is not the type you should be looking for. Make sure your weed is nicely dried but not so dry that it crumbles down to sawdust when you try to break it up. If your dealer doesn't have anything good tell him (or her) that you'll come back later. It isn't the end of the world and maybe your dealer won't take you so lightly next time and know you mean business. I don't know about you all but I know I would much rather save my money + possibly have some more money to get a lot more weed when ever I see some dank rather than spending your cash on shit weed that does not give you a desired high and wastes your time and money plus having to spend more money when you see something you actually want.
I even compared some good bud to some of the schwagg that I bought in my old times. I hope this thread really helped some people because it really makes me sick to know that people get ripped off. It's a tree and there's plenty enough good bud to go around to make everyone happy, there's no need for all this bull shit weed and scammers going around. I don't usually write threads like these and it's probably one of my first so I hope this really helped some one :thumbsup:.
