I don't know man, those look strange. I guess it all depends on where you got them. If you don't know the "dealer" well, I would toss them out. be safe whatever you decide..

If you trust that he really did try them, then they may be alright. I've seen some strange looking actives on google images that are apparently safe to eat.

they look ugly for real but at the same time I don't see any obvious signs of bacteria or signs of trich. idk I would take em if I trusted the guy that I got em from, if that aint the case toss em.

So those look a little blobbish. If the dealer said they were particularly potent, then it could likely be a Penis Envy variety that is known for being a contorted ass mushroom. PE also has small caps, which the one in the picture would fit with as well.
A picture with a white background, such as a blank sheet of printing paper, would go a long way to getting the truer colors of the mushrooms. I think the tan table, and cell phone pic(? yeah?) isn't helping the color ID very well.
If you tear one in half and let it sit for 5-10 minutes and you get nice dark bluing, this is a good sign. Even bluing a little is a good sign, as they're dry and won't bruise too easily. If it does not blue at all, then I would question the ID of the mushrooms.
It does look like there is vermiculite on some of the pieces, so they are purposely grown by a cultivator. I doubt someone would grow another mushroom and call it an active one.
The main concern would be green mold, or other contaminants that might make you sick. The pic in a white background will help with this.

Blue bruising is a good sign but those look a little weird. I would only take them if the dealer grew them himself and you trust him, and he didn't get them from some sketchy source. Tough call.

Do what FunnyLight said, and if they pass the test, take them (but I would only do so with a sitter given the circumstance). Have fun, enjoy

Is it possible that they're not actives at all and that they're simply coated/infused with an RC? I know you can get RCs (or at least 25c) in a liquid form, it's very possible that they just bought some mushrooms at the store, injected/dropped a little bit on the "shroom", and sold them as an active?
I don't know man, the only reason(s) I would take those would be if I were speaking to a dealer that I trusted like a brother (which I do not have), if I grew them and identified them fresh, or if I could run them through a mass-spectrometer and make sure they weren't toxic.
EDIT: Didn't read the PE reply. He's right, they could be mutated. The part that looks mangled is where the shroom was connected to the cake, I was seeing it as a hairy looking shroom. So anyway, those may be totally 100% safe mutants. Or they may not be.. I'm to stoned to think about this I guess.

When you see something like that in the grocery store, would you buy it? Serious, I won't even consider to put something like that into my body.
It is your first time tripping, so when they kick in, you might be worried a bit about what to expect. When you eat those, you also will be worried about getting sick, which is NOT a good mental state of your brain for the start of a trip.
Whoever did grow those, knows for a fact they look very bad. The supposed "dealer" should also know this. Next time, when it doesn't look right, don't buy it! Now they just sold you a crappy product, literally...
Don't eat them, return them or trash them and consider it a lesson. For your first mushroom experience ever, you need a good looking product without any worries. That way you can truly enjoy the experience.

Those are just side pins. Nothing to be afraid of. They could be potent.

I think you got jacked dude. No caps? They plucked the caps off for themselves and sold you the left over stems. The one that still has a cap on it looks vaguely like a cubensis mushroom but they're obviously giving you the short end of the stick by only giving you a bunch of stems and one tiny cap.

Why do people consider caps more valuable? I've never read anywhere that they're actually proven to be more potent.

I think I've seen a test that showed caps to have slightly(talking ~5%) more Psilocin/Psilocybin concentration than stems. I don't remember sample size or any specifics, so it could be worthless. If there's a difference, it's minimal.
Those look horrible. Either the grower didn't know what he was doing, or he intentionally left substrate intact to sandbag the weight. Try to pick off the grains and dirt, and either hydrate and clean the mushrooms thoroughly, or make them into a tea like suggested above. It also looks like you've got just a trunk in there. That thing is covered with substrate.

Caps are definitely prettier, but I'd definitely be willing to "believe" someone if they wanted to sell me stems for cheaper! :P Not to mention the stems don't taste anywhere near as bad as the caps.

I don't see anything wrong with them. There's some substrate stuck to them but no mold or anything. Give them a good smell if you're worried.

Not sure how you can tell he's in a train car, just looks like a room of some sort with a little camera shake to me... Regardless, they're both movies I haven't seen and would like to see.
Edit: Holy damn I'm so off topic.. To save myself a warning, did you try them yet?
