The Apprentice Toker's Guide To Not Being Scummed

[Cody B.]

yeah man i mean i've been ripped before but you learn, my sister is the first person i blazed with and if i had any questions i would ask her,but the dude's i know now are straight up if they say it's an eight it is , but i always buy an eighth no more but i'm growing my own cause my hours at my job got cut back and i have to spend less money, i got insurance ant a truck payment to take care of, but here's somthing, if yer dealing with someone who puts some bud in a bag and says "how's that look?" always say " put in one more or 2 more buds and it should be good" cause if they ask if it's good most of the time it's not so just kindly ask to and one more or 2 more buds i've done it before, just know what any amount is supposed to weigh and how much it should cost and you should be good but hey just make sure you don't get ripped, it suck and it makes you feel like shit. make sure you know what bud smells like, before you buy ask if you can smell it, if they say no , then no deal

Yea dude. Thats why I say only bring the money you need, nothing more. It keeps you out of trouble entirely. A scumbag cant steal your money if you dont have any

Also you should add in that fronting money is not that bad. Calmly ask for the guys license or his shoe or something of the nature that he will have to come back to get. This will prevent the guy from running with your cash. You have no reason to run with what he gives you. It's always worked with me.

Also, you should add in to use your head when it comes to meeting locations. I used to be stupid about meeting people wherever they said. Don't make yourself drive too far, and don't go to a terrible or obvious location. Stick to unbusy neighborhoods, back streets (stop signs are great places to make a fast exchange), and people's houses.

Thanks bro! I've been scummed before, and it fucking sucks. I heard a lot of stories recently about people getting scummed, so I figured I'd make a guide on avoiding it.

That's a good idea about fronting money using collateral. Tomorrow I'll add something in about it. Fronting money is a bad idea overall, but if you got the guy's license or phone or whatever, he isnt gonna run.

And I was gonna write something about meeting places too, but a) I couldn't think of a good way to word it, and b) I was still a little stoned writing this so I partially forgot

I'll try to incorporate something like that into the guide, though. Thanks a bunch for the info dude!

Cool nice guide.

[bigstoner69]

props on the guide. You should make one for those who handle with "large" quanaties aka 10+ pounds. Do deals with such large amounts you can most deff get killed over.
Even the smallest mistake can get you baged n taged. Hell even doing nothing can get you killed.

Haha I'll leave that to those that are experienced to buying that amount. The most I've ever bought is an ounce, and the most I'll probably ever buy is a quap.

If that changes then I'll make a second guide. But that guide will be in seasoned tokers lol.
No apprentice toker is buying 10 lbs at a time

never got fucked over cuz i was always connected
everything u say is true
+rep

[Sneaky Silas]

I dissagree. If you do everything right, then you're going to get what you're bargained for. My number one rule is to not buy home grown shit.

Brilliant stuff .

Why would you make that a rule?

Hi im new here and have to say that im new to all this, i feel i was somewhat prepared.
Today i went with my cousin that buys weed from his guy for some time now. my cousin got a half (dont remember name i'll ask him)

and a i got a whole. (1 oz) my cousin said to have the money in hand ready so i did, his guy shows up gets in our car we drive

he grabs the oz and gives it to my hand (indicating he had trust i assume?) my cousin asked how much he said $300

i only had $280 and we asked if we can go to local atm to get $20, he was like yeah im not in a hurry.

so ok i get $20 = $300 total drop him off house, right before he gets off my cousin asked hey can my cousin get your number so he can get from you in the future? without hesitating he said yeah and gave me his number.

few points

he got on the car

i noticed he had a scale (he didnt measure it at the moment just had a clear plastic bag

he gave me the bag first before getting the cash.

gave me his number first time i've ever delt with him

op and others please comment what i did right and or wrong

oh and sorry for this first long post.

i'll have pictures up tomorrow it was a big bag and i have a scale to but it was hard to measure since i didnt even out the bag, but it was close to 28 g

$300 for 1 oz.

oh and after the dude left my cousin told me its purp aka purple or purple haze??

smealled different, i've had moutain jam (med weed?) and hailey comet (med weed) maybe trainwreck in the past.

Sounds like you did everything right. Most dealers aren't as relaxed, at least not that I've dealt with.

My only point would be to avoid going to the ATM next time.

[gus738]

Thanks! yeah i thought he had enough trust to see someone new (like me) anyways as far as prices go $300 for 1 oz is that good? he said its purple.

ps: just wondering about about atm why or why not?

[DeadRowers]

Hahaha +rep I especially like the end.

It's like the old saying goes, If life gives you oregano, make pasta!

[Netwerk]

You're a wise person kushman! I'm glad you're giving this advice!

When I was just getting into smoking I was foolish and fronted some one who never got back to me, luckily it was only $20. But I wished I had that or some herb

[420 - LoS - 420]

wish i had this when i 1st started blazing nug.
