I GOT RIPPED OFF!!!!!

[ilovebud]

Ok so the other day me and my friend were getting some bud from his dealer who drove up to us so we gave him the money and he gave us a bag of what we thought was weed and then drove off fast...it turns out it was a bag of OREGANO...WTF?:mad::mad::mad:
We had just bought from this dude a few days before and he gave us some really good weed...Why would he do this?:mad::mad::mad:

Has this ever happened to anyone on here and is ther anything i can do about it?

[OahuLocal]

Nope Hasnt EVER happened to me... You guys should have asked to see it. Call him back up

[el_fantistico]

A buddy of mine was mugged while visiting Chicago when he turned the wrong corner looking for weed. He found weed alright, but when he pulled out his wallet the dealer dudes took it, along with his iPod, his cell phone and his glasses. They did leave him with the 1/8th though... weird.

Wow what an idiot. Sounds like a crackhead. I believe in non-violent retribution myself.

Report him to the Better Business Bureau! Just kidding. To prevent it from happening again, you can smell it before you give the money.

I'd much rather go to someone's house, chill and smoke or have them come to my house. That parking lot shit is sketchy as fuck.

If you meet your dealer at a house, and smoke, of course it will be good. You pack a bowl, he packs a bowl. Everyone's stash is good.

This actually took place right in front of my friends house, not a parking lot, but thanks for the advice, I will do what you said next time.:thumbsup:

yeah i got ripped of too but i'm not going to tell you how much cause it's embarassing. anyway i had been getting good shit from this gay i mean guy all summer and the night before he was leaving to go to college i called him and he said he could "out of my stash as a favor to you for buying from me all summer". we were cool all summer and then that mother fucker ripped me off. we met up and he's pretty big and he brought another dude that was a little bigger than me, i'm about average at 160lbs. anyway what they did was i was talking to the guy i knew and the other guy pretended like he had to get something out of the car. i thought it was the weed cause the guy i knew didn't have it so i didn't think anything of it. next thing i know i'm being put into a head lock and having my wallet stolen. i'm pretty fast and they didn't expect me to fight back so i caught the guy i didn't know and dragged him down from behind and hit him in the sternum and then elbowed him in the face but the guy i knew kicked me in the back and when i was still on the ground kicked me again in the face. it hit my nose so i was stunned and then they got away. i layed there for a couple minutes and i decided to go by his house and when i got there and knocked on his door ready to knock his ass out, his dad opened up and came at me with a gun! needless to say i backed up and left in a hurry. since then i've been planning my revenge, everything from burning his house down to robbing his house and other things of that nature. eventually after i calmed down i decided that i'm going to put in an anonymous tip that there are drug dealings happening there next summer when he gets back. you may think thats fucked up but in the words of smokey "i don't give a FUCK!" lol. all this time i thought that shit like that only happened around "hard" drugs. hope you feel better now.

[r0k]

Don't call him back, and no, there's nothing you can do about it except not to talk to him again, and tell anyone you know to stay the fuck away from him. Now go cook something with that oregano you've acquired :jointsmile:

[bluntblaze]

get a few friends ect.. id tell you what i did when i got ripped off but id only get BANNED again.

[Man Beast]

Man, that's pretty messed up, I hope that dude has nothing but bad trips.

[LuckyG]

That's bad for business. If word gets around that you're the "Oregano Guy"... well, soon you're not going to find yourself with a lot of customers.

[geonagual]

Might as well use the Oregeno in a tasty pizza sauce

No, it really has nothing to do with hard drugs. The problem is Prohibition. You know, the gangs making money off of alcohol during alcohol's Prohibition wanted alcohol to stay illegal. Why? They were making so much money off of it.

Imagine if suddenly disposable diapers were illegal.

There would be diaper dealers all doing it illegally, and you know people would buy it anyway because of how goddamn addictive it is. How the hell are you going to go back to cloth? There would be some asshole diaper dealers that would rip people off, and beat the shit out of them. Also the price of diapers would skyrocket. "Sixty bucks a bag, that's the price. Take it our leave it. Babies always shit. I have lots of clients."

Now, imagine if weed was regulated like tobacco and alcohol. There is no fucking way a storekeeper is going to rip you off. If he gave you oregano, you would stand there in the store, and demand your money back, or actual weed. Then, you would tell all your friends, word would get around, and that store would go out of business.

Imagine a storekeeper trying to beat the crap out of you, and steal your wallet. Never going to happen. If it did, and no one was around, you would just call the cops right away, they would go to the store, arrest the shopkeeper, and recover your wallet.

I know the people that rip you off are assholes, and you hate them. I hate them with you! We also need to be angry at the mindset of Marijuana Prohibition, and the propaganda surrounding it.

Hopefully anger will lead to action.

Some drugs make people violent that's true. Weed does not. Any violence surrounding weed is caused by it's illegality.

[beachguy in thongs]

I am wondering of the city, and, state, where this rip-off occurred.

Or, was it a town? Mountains? Foothills?

It happened closer to the city part of tampa, florida, where my friend lives. I do feel better about it now knowing what happened to FluidS lol because I dont want anything to do with getting shot or mugged over a bag of weed. :smokebong:

[Reefer Rogue]

Practically everyone get's ripped off at least once, try and learn from your mistakes. It only happens because it's illegal =[

[LargeToker37]

The closest I ever got to getting ripped off was I bought a $20 sack that lasted me only three bowls. But I was sooo fucking high from just one that it didn't matter at all. So yeah, never really been ripped off. Sorry to hear that you were man.

[Daveracer]

Call him up and tell him you want to buy some more of his great weed. Bring a couple friends along and......well, you know what happens then.....

[Man Beast]

in desperate times i have sold oregano mixed with basil as bud. if i do it quickly before school starts there is not enough time for them to go find me cuz they got to go to class.
i also have ripped off several people by selling them shwag and told them it was dank. thats just their fault for being stupid tho

You need to fix your moral compass. :mad:

[are you kind]

thats messed up dude...

plus all any of them have to do is mention that you sell weed to a teacher and they'll come get you. simple revenge...

although i guess if you're stupid enough buy oregano at school nonetheless...

[melodious fellow]

i decided that i'm going to put in an anonymous tip that there are drug dealings happening there next summer when he gets back. you may think thats fucked up

what kind of idiot would rip off/piss off customers? not only is that bad fro business, but the pissed off customer can easily get the dealer caught

[Box215]

yeah that makes absolutely no sense on the dealer's part at all

[Lankan Lion]

Call him up and tell him you want to buy some more of his great weed. Bring a couple friends along and......well, you know what happens then.....

before anybody starts goin rambo take a second to think about what exactly you've lost? This is weed not coke so you probably haven't lost more than 250 bucks tops (I'm guessing much less)...obviously if you live in the Boontown USA, population 2500 there shouldnt be much more to it than a good ole fashioned beatdown but if you're not you don't know what it's gonna end up with.

2 days ago a guy I went to school with and sessioned with once got shanked on his way to work because some guy he sold a half o thought he got ripped off . Guys in ICU right now and the dude that stabbed him and his boys are all in custody. I can't count the number of stories I have that end up like this...sometimes over nothing more than a dub sack.

Not retaliating doesn't make you a pussy, it makes you smart enough not to get caught up in bullshit. You guys have to chill out when you tell kids to go out and get even. Half you guys are just fronting over the internet and wouldn't do it themselves. You have no idea what the situation is and one of these days you're gonna get someone bodied.

[Zcomp]

I have sold oregano, for good reason though. A dorky friend of mine had wanted to see what weed was all about. He was only 14(I was 16) and I didn't think he needed to know what he was missing. He already had enough problems keeping up his grades. I only took $5 of the $20 he wanted to spend. He wasn't impressed by weed and didn't bother with it from then on.
I still believe what I did was right. He finished High school after all.
:cool:

[Zcomp]

Oh I neglected to mention that I sympathetically smoked it with him so he thought I was high. He didn't smoke with anyone else.

[jamus_dood]

haha a mate of mine bought what he thought was weed, turned out to be a bag of water cress

How can you be such a terrible person and have this boy never now the true wounders of weed. Who knows that shit probaly could have helped him in ways.

[MajesticWhelk]

I have a pretty good rip-off story.

So this one time in San Francisco I was coming out of a smoke shop and this black guy comes up to me with a blunt and asks me if I want to smoke. I was like "Fuck, why not?" so I hit it a few times and it was some DANK. I asked him if he had any more of that stuff and he showed me the killest nug I have ever seen to this date. I was looking for like an 8th, but he said he didn't have it and that some old dude downtown was his connection. He also mentioned to me that he could get fake MMJ cards for really cheap. I was uneducated about MMJ at the time and I figured he was telling the truth so I asked how much. He said 70 bucks for the card and 20 more if my friend wanted one too. I asked him to see how much an OZ was and he called some guy on a payphone and told me it was going to be 170 (Oz's usually go for 270-300 out here) so I said "Fuck why not."

I take him to the outside of this building downtown and I told him I wanted to come in with him. He said the guy felt sketchy about meeting new people, but to prove he wouldn't rip me off he gave me his keys. He showed me his car keys, his house key, his mailbox key, garage key, etc etc. I gave him the money and he walked around a corner and I started to examine the keys and realized that they were all car keys and none of them were even engraved. I hopped out of the car and RAN around the corner but he was nowhere to be found.

All in all I lost about 270 bucks. I haven't seen him since either. When I find him he'll have to spend more than that on a hospital bill.

[TheGreenBuddy]

People are assholes.

Its life man.

don't post in this thread if your ripping off people dude. it sucks getting ripped off especially when you spend good money. you should have just charged that kid nothing since it was only oregano anyways:mad:

[Unknownfigure]

yeah i got ripped of too but i'm not going to tell you how much cause it's embarassing. anyway i had been getting good shit from this gay i mean guy all summer and the night before he was leaving to go to college i called him and he said he could "out of my stash as a favor to you for buying from me all summer". we were cool all summer and then that mother fucker ripped me off. we met up and he's pretty big and he brought another dude that was a little bigger than me, i'm about average at 160lbs. anyway what they did was i was talking to the guy i knew and the other guy pretended like he had to get something out of the car. i thought it was the weed cause the guy i knew didn't have it so i didn't think anything of it. next thing i know i'm being put into a head lock and having my wallet stolen. i'm pretty fast and they didn't expect me to fight back so i caught the guy i didn't know and dragged him down from behind and hit him in the sternum and then elbowed him in the face but the guy i knew kicked me in the back and when i was still on the ground kicked me again in the face. it hit my nose so i was stunned and then they got away. i layed there for a couple minutes and i decided to go by his house and when i got there and knocked on his door ready to knock his ass out, his dad opened up and came at me with a gun! needless to say i backed up and left in a hurry. since then i've been planning my revenge, everything from burning his house down to robbing his house and other things of that nature. eventually after i calmed down i decided that i'm going to put in an anonymous tip that there are drug dealings happening there next summer when he gets back. you may think thats fucked up but in the words of smokey "i don't give a FUCK!" lol. all this time i thought that shit like that only happened around "hard" drugs. hope you feel better now.

If something like that ever happened to me, I'd make a few phone calls to make sure everyone in that house gets a hole in their chest. Seriously, because that is some fucked up, traitorous shit right there, and betrayal, atleast in my mind, deserves death, and especially if they did it like that. I just cannot say how fucked up that is, and I'm pissed off just reading it, because now I'm thinking about if it would happen to me... It'd be almost funny if it does happen to me, though.



And to the original poster: You can't really do anything but try and fuck up his game. Tell everyone you know that dude has bunk ass, dirt weed. If you really want to, I guess you could hunt his ass down or something and fuck up his car, but I don't suggest hurting him or anything just because he sold you oregano. It is partially your fault for not checking it out first, you know?

[Tihkal]

Man always look first. You can't confuse weed for oregano. I have to admit I got ripped once waaaay back. I was dumber. I gave him money first and then he didnt come back. hahah dumbass. I dont ever deal with strangers unless I have a friend with me and always approve the product before money changes hands eh.

[Zcomp]

How can you be such a terrible person and have this boy never now the true wounders of weed. Who knows that shit probaly could have helped him in ways.

In what ways?? he had no disabilities. The green must be used responsibly. I've seen too many(incl myself) drop out and take the "path of least resistance". :(

"the true wonders of weed"??? weed intoxicates you period. No matter the rationalization of this drug. :stoned:

I love the bud! but I'm not recommending it to anyone. People need to learn self control before embarking on this experience. Some people learn self control early and some never do.

This isn't an attack on weed, just a reality check. Weed isn't good for everyone.

[allgame2323]

dude, thats an old trick, i wouldnt buy from a person u dont kno neway
