I know this is a bad picture, but does this look to be about what $40 gets you?
Just want to make sure I'm not getting ripped off.
Thank you.

I hate to say it, but I think you got ripped.
It's brick (compressed) so people wont' be able to make an estimate on the weight. Because remember... bud is sold by WEIGHT... not LOOKS :jointsmile:
Investing in some sort of measuring device will almost guarantee that you don't get ripped off in the future. I have even resorted to a ruler... a nickel... and a fulcrum. Ghetto, but you can get a rough idea of its comparison to 5 grams (which is what a nickel weighs).
But everything is relative... sometimes paying 4x the going rate is worth it IF you can't find a damn thing anywhere. In my opinion anyway :stoned:
That's nothing like what forty bucks gets me.
What matters is that that's what forty bucks got you, right?
unless you are high for 3 weeks off a single hit, you are paying way too much
...:(
RELAX bro. I notice in another post of yours that you just tried Cannabis for the first time recently. If you are upset over your first purchase (which I STILL say is impossible for US to tell if it is "worth it") then you have much to experience in this culture. You can not be expected to get huge overstuffed sacks everytime. "Worth," is a relative word. What is worth something to you, will not satisfy another. What disappoints you... others would be GLAD to have. It's ALLLLL relative :jointsmile:
I mean, if that will get you :stoned: for a few weeks, then what is there to complain about. Yeah, you may have paid too much for what you got, but what is the alternative? Nothing? Another source that may have intentionally shorted you? Or... I repeat... Nothing? :jointsmile:
Half the people on this site, I'm guessing, have been involved in Cannabis culture for years and years and years (yeah, a lot of old fogies around here :hippy: haha jk) Over that time they have built relationships that help them get a fair price. You can NOT expect, or feel entitled, to receive goods at cost when you first step into the game.
So, people will most likely continue to claim that you have been ripped beyond ripped off. BUT....
They didn't smell it, smoke it, hold it, weigh it... and most importantly, they probably have not tried to purchase Cannabis in your town. Because as we ALL should know by now, there is no "set-price" on buds. There are suggestions, recommendations, and moral guidelines ;) as to what the going rate is, but in no way does that mean it applies to all locations.
Basically, I could have answered your question with my eyes closed and no picture:
You got what you paid for. No more... no less. :jointsmile:
Consider this your first lesson in Cann Club. Know what you're buying... and if you aren't sure.... DON'T BUY IT! Ignorance is no excuse.
P.S. Go roll up and then YOU tell us if it is worth it :jointsmile:
Thanks themetal1.
You're right, the alternative could very well be nothing.
Also, I only plan a few hits a week, so I hope this will last a little while.
Will take a rip off the bat later tonight.
That's the spirit :jointsmile: Glad to see you aren't beating yourself up. Trust me, I've been burnt beyond burnt.... so has EVERYONE else here. They don't call it a "game" for nothing :hippy:Quote:
