Best bet in the UK is to find a grower friend and stick to buying from friends. I have one very reliable dealer. He once sold me bud that was clearly soaked in water to add weight, and he sells me uncured bud sometimes, but it's always top quality and the weights are always right, so aside from the water incident he's been pretty reliable. On the other hand my friend bought some bud and when we looked at it, it was soaking wet and had a strong chemical smell, I believe someone sprayed Raid or something similar on it.

Contamination is definitely around, but Cambridge and the surrounding towns don't seem to have a big problem with it. The likelihood here is if someone wants to short your bag they'll just add water to the bud.

Just in case there are any dealers on this site who contaminate their weed to add weight, don't do it. Just put an orange peel in the bag and leave it overnight and the bag's weight will nearly double, or just add water if you have to. I don't agree with people ripping each other off, but if you're going to do it, at least do it in a way that isn't harmful to the person smoking it.
