What to do if you get a shorted bag?

[homestar]

Bought from a new guy yesterday...seems like he also wants to be a friend so he's like 'there's probably an extra gram or gram and a half there, when it comes to friends i don't like to be all about business'...i get home and weigh the pot, was supposed to be an 1/8 but it was .2 grams short (weighed 3.3) - should I say something? I mean he gets good shit, but if he's gonna do this again...I dunno. Perhaps I should bring a scale next time...!

[NightProwler]

eh thats not too bad... ifit was a gram or more than that would be bad

[beachguy in thongs]

Definitely say something. Keep it simple. "You told me, that bag was a couple grams over, when I got home, it was a couple grams light."

Maybe, he has a faulty scale.

[homestar]

ah, sorry man i dunno if you read, it was only .2 grams under...so i'm thinking next time i should bring a scale and weigh it right there to make sure all is legit, don't wanna ruin my only connect for shit like ak47, white widow, etc haha

btw he got us some bubblegum...tasty shit

[Big Calhoun]

.2grams under...is it really worth it? The few times I've gotten shorted, I just don't use that person again. Then when they ask why I don't come around anymore, I tell them. Simple and sweet.

[homestar]

Ah, it was just the lying about the bag being 1 or 1.5 grams over...just kinda dumb. It's about future trust is all

[yankeesgirl83]

let it slide this time if it happens again in the near future, then say something.

[friendowl]

always take a scale
business is business
how would he like it
if you paid 41 dollars instead of 50

[zephyrinne]

That's not too big of a deal just being .2 under.. but since the guy did tell you he put an extra G in there, well.. something's up. Either his scale is way off or maybe he just thought you wouldn't have noticed.

If it happens again, I'd say something... and bring your scale along. If he asks why you have your scale, tell him straight up you want to get what you pay for.

[SamsonSimpson]

there are no exact price weed is supposed to be, but if they tell you its over and its actually short, just mention it next time to him though. thats one of my reasons for growing my own now though.

Try not to jump to conclusions, thus perhaps ruining a high quality cannabis connection.
One thing to keep in mind is that all scales do NOT weigh weight the same.
.2 grams could be the result of this.
Here's what you do....
Take your scales and weigh a object...such as a clothes pin, etc etc. Take the object that you weighed on your scales and ask this cat to weigh it on his and see what the outcome is. Weigh a quarter(coin), and ask him to do the same. etc etc.

DAMNNNNNN friendowl is fucking right, and im totally gonna use that.

bring your scale, and if he gives you shit be like listen, last time you were a bit short so im just makin sure its all good. you wouldnt like it if i paid you 41 instead of 50 right? well same goes for you.

[3rdEyeVision]

lmao .2 grams thats like 2 bong tokes, just let it slide. what happened was he weighed it forgetting about the bag, thats why he thought it was over the whieght when it was really under......just chill and next time try and watch when he weighs it out because theres like a 90% chance it was an honest mistake by him

[nightlight]

id say ignore it. you got 3.3 didnt you?

[m.g.]

but getting caught driving around with a scale can be a very bad scene...for many years! the provider should always have a scale handy...it's his responsibilty. if your provider doesn't show you the weight find another. any dealer worth his weight will be more than glad to show you the deal...

[pumpkin]

To avoid confrontation when I use a scale, I always use the "It's for my buddy and I KNOW he'll check it" line. I don't like to have any kind of static between myself and someone I'm doing something illegal with :cool:

[m.g.]

but that line wouldn't work with anyone i know...once it leaves the house it's yours. which is why you always insist on seeing the scale. otherwise you're dealing with rookies or rip offs.

Maybe he weighed it in the bag. Did you take it out to weigh it? Point 2 of a gram is an easy mistake to make. But he probably shouldn't have said there were extra grams in it.
Mention it next time you see him. Tell him he must of got the baggies mixed up cos yours was just the littlest bit under. No need to drop a contact over something so simple, good weed can be hard to find these days.
Explain it to him over a spliff. It'll be fine. Don't worry stress or panic man. Wow:thumbsup:

[schwagster]

I'd just let it go this time, but if it keeps happening I'd say something and start to bring my scale when I bought from him

[Pipe Dreams]

I wouldnt sweat .2 grams dude. Really I wouldnt stress over anything a gram or less, unless youre paying for some KB shit.

[homestar]

yeah sorry guys, i wasn't like pissed or anything. i thought maybe it would be rude to bring a scale, but yeah i'll definitely do that next time.

[4hous2tx0]

u get wut u pay for, always try to get them to weigh it in front of u before u buy it. never go back a say something, u might offend someone even though they r really doing u a favor... think about it.

.2 aint shit

[dejayou30]

a friend of mine always weighs the bags he sells at least 5 times, 3 times out of the bag and two times in the bag, because he says he has people coming back claiming that he shorted them. really its only .2 grams. i wouldn't worry about it. i'm sure he didn't mean to. next time maybe just be like "i was wondering if you could weigh it again, last time it was slightly short." i'm sure he wouldn't mind taking 10 seconds to throw it on the scale again to reweigh.

[Oneironaut]

If it's really a problem, find a new dealer. It's not like there are any trade laws in the drug business.

[PureEvil760]

Sell him a pound of cat nip.

[PotHeed420]

don't say anything next time just say your bringing your scale to weigh it cause the last bag you got might have been skimped
