Picked up Moist Mushrooms

Hey guys, I just picked up an oz of moist mushrooms from a person a couple of days ago, I didn't know anything about them needing to be "cracker dry" 'till last night so I did not check them.
Two days ago, my friend and I both took two grams each (to test the potency) and the first feeling we got were that our faces felt numb (Botulism?). Eventually it was only a body high for the rest of the night until I smoked weed, which intensified it a bit and gave me minor visuals.
Anyway I've decided to look into it and the mushrooms are in fact moist and flexible, they do smell like burnt bacon and some parts of the caps are black and decaying. How do I know what's mold? Are all wet mushrooms unsafe to eat? This link claims that some wet mushrooms are safe: http://www.channels.nl/knowledge/6869.html
I just put them in the fridge today but from what I've read here, any moist or flexible mushroom is trash. Basically I want to know if that is right and, how to properly identify molds.

I would return them. If they where sold to you wet you got cheated on weight plus they started rotting. The only way dude selling them will know its wrong is if you bitch about it. It is a legit gripe not like saying "they ain't cappy enough" or bitching about some shake in the bag. Shake would be a good sign as cracker dry shrooms powder easy.

There is no shake. I'll print more threads on this topic and I will present it to him, unfortunately I go through a middle-man so I don't know the grower myself (not yet anyway).
I do have a good dried batch from months ago (thank God!) and comparing them has been a good learning experience nonetheless. I'll post pics of the wet mushrooms soon, maybe I can get a good affirmation from here that it's too late and moldy.

anyone selling should sell proper product so no one ever gets sick. If you are paying money for them dude should buy a nice dehydrator but if you are not paying and getting them free toss some bucks towards a good dehydrator as the shit is not free to produce.

Yeah that's the thing. I don't care about being ripped off, moreso my health and the health of my friends'. I did pay for them.
Here are the pics, I've separated into two pics with my newb knowledge of "Definitely moldy?" and the "slightly moldy/rest of them"
Definitely Moldy (What do you think?) http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/1442/dscn3565v.jpg
The rest of them: http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/2650/dscn3566y.jpg
Please share your thoughts. Are these rotting for sure? Thank you.

The ones in the first pic, I would definitely not eat them, rotten for sure. Other ones look fine.
