Purple strains are real, but most of the time it is due to a mistake in growing and then dealers rip people off saying it is bomby purple this and that..

You said it well
-99.5% of whatever is sold on the streets as "Purple Haze" is either some other Purple strain or a strain that has been exposed to cold temps and gone purple. DON"T PAY HIGH PRICES FOR IT SIMPLY FOR THE NAME. It's like the guy with a armful of "genuine Rolex's".
I have a strain here called grand daddy purple and it is bomby, but I prefer others over it still. It gives you a more engergenic high which im not looking for but it has it's percs.

But purple does exist...
