ok so i am kind of new to the whole shrooms thing but i just bought wet shrooms for the first time last night from a guy i dont even really know which probably wasnt smart to start off. but today (when i sobered up) i just thot about the fact that i dint kno him and i looked at it and its just not what i would expect for wet muchrooms, then again i know shit about it. but its just a round glob and its dark brown/blackish in color. doest even seem like its a cap. im about 90.837568374 percent sure i got screwed over but i need to know some opinions from more experienced ppl. THX

Ummmm, that looks rather suspect.
Cut off a piece and put it in a glass of water - squeeze it around, and hopefully it will tint the water blue. If it does, it probably warrants further investigation.
If the water does go blue - refer back to here, this is by no means a reliable identification technique.

Whatever that glob of stuff is, I wouldn't eat it. We can't even tell if it is even a fungus really by the picture.
Could have been a bunch of mushrooms or some fungus at one point...
If wet mushrooms are not stored right, they can get all black, mushy, and clump together like that. A result of rot. Anything in that shape shouldn't be eaten. Could lead to food poisoning. A foul odor is a good sign of rotting.
So, what was this stuff stored in when you first received it and what has it been kept in since you have had it? Keeping fresh mushrooms plastic bags or other kinds of plastic or sealed containers that have little or no air exchange can cause them to rot.
Not even saying that they are even mushrooms to begin with. there isn't even enough there to go on. Just trying to come up with a theory as to why someone would sell you a black lump of stuff like that.

Some people will buy anything, and there are those who would sell anything to a total noob. "A fool and his money....."

Looks like the dealer stored the mushrooms in plastic. They can go from being perfect specimens to unrecognizable blobs from just a couple of hours in a plastic container. Use paper, or dry them out ALL THE WAY until you put them in plastic.
