Salvia - IAmShaman....

Hey people, Just looking on IAmShaman trying to buy my first batch of salvia extract and noticed that it said "For use as an incense component only. NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. " Is this more of a deterrent so the company cannot be held responsible or is it a serious warning. Iim after some to smoke and am wondering if i should adhere to this warning. Thanks
Peace

Yeah. All sellers have to say that it's not for human consumption. That's not a worry.
BTW - Great choice. I've bought from them before and loved it. Extremely cheap for good stuff.

I must agree. Very good product. I have tried IAmShaman.com's 5x and 10x and both were very efficient for purposes other than for use as an "incense component"

You won't go wrong buying Salvia leaf from ias. He has been very successful with a home grown business started up close to three years ago and now appears to be making many thousands of dollars a week off of selling Salvia incense using the process I taught him, well, with his own refinements since then I am sure, the same way I have continued to refine the techniques I use too. I wrote all of my most recent refinements to the process in a tech at the following URL: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat...;o=&fpart=1 edited: to make sure people don't misunderstand me, much of what I wrote about IAS are my assumptions from what I have seen on the net about his business, very successful and from what I can tell he probably sells more enhanced leaf than any other vendor in the country and there are tons of Salvia leaf shipped from Mexico to the US every year.

What he is doing isn't hard, you can make your own standardized leaf very easily, or even build up a successful business of your own using the tek I have in the FAQ contributions section (link in my last post of this thread). Although the larger web sites selling enhanced leaf won't admit it because they don't want more competition, they are making a killing off of selling leaf buying it from 7 to 13 cents a gram depending on the amount they buy at one time, and then selling it for 20 dollars or more a gram when enhanced. Do the math, even if you use 12 grams of leaf to make a single gram of 10X that only costs them a couple of bucks to make, even considering solvents and they sell it for close to 20 dollars a gram and that's not counting their "handing" charges! That's a better investment for your efforts or money than you can get anywhere else. The secret of making money off of Salvia is to sell it at or just alittle below the best price that IAS is selling it for. People selling it for 40 dollars a gram for 10X aren't going to get much market share IMHO. Here is a web link to buy your own bulk leaf if you want to go into the biz: http://www.aztecasplants.com Also, for more indepth extraction information here is a link to almost everything I know about extractions: http://www.shaman-australis.com.au/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=002294 Edit: If you want to cruise through my extraction photo album here is a link: http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/salvinorin2003/

I didn't have as much luck with IAM. I placed an order requested next day shipping and it arrived 5 days later with a note saying they'd send the rest of my order (out of stock). I called them after 2 days and they said I would get a refund for the difference in shipping ($15). Never happened and I was banned from the site for sending repetitive emails to try clearing it up. I still haven't recieved my blue Lotus seed pods.
The salvia was the best I'd tried though.

hmmm, well that sucks. ive had some trouble with them in the past, but they've always cleared it up and tried to help as much as possible. and you can't beat the ship time. the prices aren't bad either. and the quality is always good. so i've stayed with them.

Never had any problems with Iamshaman. They are my favorite online vendor for ethnobotanicals. Always quality product and very fast shipping. A guy mentioned above that he got his product late. I never had that problem with them. They also provide tracking codes for your product as most vendors do.
There is a discount code specifically for shroomery members. After you hit add to cart at the bottom of the page you will see a coupon box to type in a code. Type in: shroom3 to get your Shroomery member discount.
Check your PM's Notorious I have a better discount code I will hook you up with for easing my mind the other night about the plastic ordeal.

iamshamen used to have his Chicago Milwaukee avenue address on his website. when I first learned about salvia 3 years ago I got online and attempted to find a herbal shop in the city that might sell it. I found IAmShamen's website and noticed it had a chicago address only 5 minutes from me. I hopped into my car and found out the address was for a condo building a block north of north ave on milwaukee ave. So i went home and shot the shamen an email explaining that i drove by thinking he would have a front store and since he didn't asked if he would make a sale to me in person...you see, it was the christmas holiday and i was young and foolishly was desparately attempting to get the salvia for an occassion only a day away. I guess that scared the shamen. The next day he changed his mailing address on his website to a po box and never responded to my email nor my interest in buying his product. I was 3 years removed from college, a normal guy living a normal life...but I guess he didn't know that. Anyways, it scared the little bastard and now I have this negative idea about him extracting in his condo, living the good life off of ridiculous mark ups on an underground substance sold to teens....I guess he kinda seems to be the shady character. Hm, i should start extracting and selling.

about the tracking codes though... ya know, i've tried them and they never work for me. so that's always disappointing. i didn't know other's tracking codes actually work.
