Was probably more around 7G, and your middleman pinched 2G.
well nah, they gave him a free gram, but he ended up fucking losing it somewhere in my car and it's yet to be found
LOL, they gave him a "free" gram, where's the other 8 free grams? I think your guys is bullshitting you, he told you he lost it, but the fucker took it for himself.

When I use to smoke years ago I just grew my own shit. Went on weedfarmer.com educated myself ordered some exotic feminized seed and in no time I was cloning and cross breeding all types of greenery in and outdoors.

Yep. Also OP, ideally you should learn to grow yourself so you don't have to be dependent on shitty connections.
That's definitely ideal, but sometimes you just can't grow. I move from city to city in about the time it would take to finish a grow, just not really practical for a drifter

Last night I was supposed to pick up half an o of some reggie/mids for $60. I get it through a middle man because he's known the seller for years. long story short, we go to pick the shit up, my middle man, who we'll call ryan, asks for my money and I give it to him so he can get my shit. I watch him walk to the car, and comes back with a little baggy of what I know isn't nearly half a fucking ounce, but ryan keeps assuring me it's just really condensed. I get home and weigh the shit and it's only 5 fucking grams. this just really fucking gets to me.
People who do that are the ones that need to be snitched on.

Yeah snitching is NEVER acceptable. Also, high owl is a retard bc he even said it didn't look like a half o and he took it anyway without asking "Ryan" what the fuck was up

Yeah for sure, not really an option for me right now either. Something to consider if your only connects are douches though.

ryan just paid me back. of course the dude that fucked me over never answered his phone, so ryan just had to pay me his own money, which I feel a bit bad about, as I know he's been real tight on cash lately, but at the same time he assured me not to worry about getting fucked over by this guy 'ive been using him for years man, he's an old friend, he wouldn't rip us off'. oh well I have $30 that ill probably spend on something stupid or just more weed

All you guys saying to ask for your money or weed back make me . The guy clearly just ripped him off intentionally, and it didn't look like from the op they had any history to begin with. OP i would recommend watching breaking bad (rewatch if you haven't seen it) seasons 1-3 tend to be the most realistic for inspiration on revenge. Or the other option i see is to exploit any potential drug addiction he has had. Just recovered from a crippling benzo addiction? Do him a favor and give him a free bottle of xanax. Just make sure he knows why his life turned to shit later on down the road.

theonlysun81 said: your own fault for trying to buy mids bro
sorry that I don't have hundreds to spend on the best shit around, so sorry your majesty, didn't mean to offend you.
I read the thread to about here . Something I never understood about people who claim mid's and reg are worth it .
Don't get me wrong , I understand having a habit is pricey , but its by no means a reason to purchase more volume of an inferior product when you have access to a high grade product in less weight with over x20's the potency .
The Equation
::: mids<dank if z = x x = more bang for your buck (z is given value below) :::
Nicotine Problems
- The root equation runs into problems when applied to people addicted to nicotine paper. In that case you use this formula which is inferior in potency of THC but meets the middle ground for both your THC and Nicotine needs .
::: Thc < Nicotine x = a ; lower quality , higher quantity = b ; a + b = z; z = the middle ground of your chemical dependencies .
Canada and Parts of Europe have calculated a solution to this problem. They just smoke half tobacco , half high grad hash / THC mix in hand rolled cigarette fashion.
In closing if you could instead cut back on nicotine or just smoke a cig before you partake of the jane , your overall success and happiness as a smoker would relish in your adequately sized stash.

On a note to you getting in the situation you are in . Typically people selling shwag or "mids" are going to be the people who rip you off.
Contrarily in my experience those who sell nugget or "dank" want to keep you happy and sell you more , so that they themselves can obtain more to smoke .
Since dank has a much higher psychoactive compound count , the people working with it are consequently mirroring small pieces of the psychedelic sub culture AKA they don't want to fuck people over.

Where I live mids are just lower quality bud, like just not as good as dank. Not schwagg, but actual buds that weren't trimmed well, or treated well etc.

I gotta be honest, all of those terms just make me think . Purely an involuntary reaction though, it's just that people don't hype up weed as much with terms like that around here. If you're deciding if it's worth the asking price, you look at it and give it a smell. If you buy it and it was shittier than you thought it should be, you'll probably go to someone else next time. Hyping it up with marketing terms period would make me think a dealer was a douche, aside from saying it's indoor or outdoor or perhaps a strain name or whatever. If your weed is good it should speak for itself.
Regarding the OP, the problem with entering a middleman arrangement with someone who's not a close trustworthy friend is that you will never know which of them screwed you. The middleman is essentially doing the work of a dealer anyway so it's not unreasonable of them to want to be compensated, but it should all be above board. Better for him to quote "his" price to you including whatever markup he thinks is fair, and then it's a deal between two people instead of three.

calling weed regs is at least honest. it means "this weed was grown by people who don't bother to name their strains, it probably came from mexico, it's generally meant to be smoked in blunts, and its THC content is definitely pretty low."
lots of poor people smoke reggie though

Yeah I guess I just think it sounds funny for whatever reason. In that situation I would just expect it to be described by a dealer as weed, but offered at a lower than normal price.
The only "grade" below that that I wouldn't just refer to as weed would be "shake," aka bud leaf with some little bud pieces from trimming. You wouldn't normally see it as a commercial product though, just if you knew the grower.

Regs is garbage, there's a difference between mids and regs though as I understand it.
Regs is dried out brick weed garbage, only good for baking or extractions. Mids is just cheap quality weed, middle of the line (mid) Anything else is regular weed and would probably be named by strain
