I think you will find the love in the comments section dude. Most people enjoy what they receive and rate 10/10. No pitchforks here but a good discussion in the comments is appropriate and part of what makes LB great. Without legit reviews all we can do is discuss and compare. Dont think using language like whining or silly people is required tbh man. Price is a fair topic of conversation. Also if advertised as cali it should at least be US import. People buy the tins and lie, that sucks

Totally. The comments sections are so helpful, to get a gauge on peoples impressions of quality for the price. Cali bud imo is never from california. When you can buy the mylar branded baggies and the tins on ebay for pennies, the risk to ship from cali to UK just wouldn't be worth it, when the product can be reproduced from seed so easily. I have been told by reputable coffeeshop vendors that no weed is flown in from Cali. Even if their menu says "cali" and they want €30 a gram.

ive flown it in from cali... i used to live there and have my contacts

whatever you say mate :)

erm ok.. lol.. youre a bit odd in your assumptions but each to their own buddy

LOL Its not odd to assume you are packing UK weed and selling it as Cali, in year old packs, dude. We all know it happens. Thats why the packs are for sale on ebay ;)

Why would anyone put a sticker on a pack saying its a year old?? Dont really make any sense only reason these have got so much attention is the price but if it was a 3.5 for 70 usd nobody would say anything an with the exchange rate right now its a steal!!

The price actually is another red flag....why would it be $80-100 cheaper than normal packed "cali" weed? As the dates dont seem to make a difference to the quality, or so it's been told. I cant fathom it. I'm staying away from it. The proof will be in the pudding of reviews, I'm sure!

People complaining about the current price so screwed if you do and screwed if you don't. Price seems fair to me overall.

I was hoping to see one of your reviews on it Petitefleur so that's a shame. Feedback seems good so far though.

Personally, this doesnt seem *expensive* to Me. And you are right, damned if you do and damned if you dont. I didnt buy into it for a few reasons...Most had been highlighted in these threads, before I even left a comment!

Why don't you feel the same indignation for the Cali-x Rosin from California. Do you think he is being dishonest with that as well?

I have no faith that any of it is shipped from california. This is not my opinion on hootan, but "cali" in general.

Thats a fair point each to their own i suppose an i am sure that if its uk packed we will see alot more of it on the market soon

We have been seeing "cali packs" for a long time. Never have i opened one and been wowed! It's a con based on american packaging and funky names.

Not odd to assume you are a 15 yo boy stuck in a basement with a picture of some stockings, as this is also quite normal practice on all forums.
If we were being polite, we wouldn't wave such accusations around without any evidence at all, but you don't do polite, so we can make our assumptions...

It's already quite commonly known I am a 52 yr old cross dresser, called Greg. Keep up ;)

Think the hype helped Hootan anyway, dont think these will be around for long!

Looks a bit “meh” for the money. Fair play for taking the punt. I feel if you want Cali weed, go to Cali. The prices for weed on here are getting a bit crazy, even the stuff that isn’t being marketed as Cali weed.

Some people are prepared to spend a little more than others, and some a little less. I was impressed enough by it to buy some more before it sold.

Prices are certainly higher than usual everywhere but not surprising given the current climate. Still plenty of weed at various price points to choose from though.

Isn't this weed priced at standard for Hootan? $70 an 8th? You are right, some people are happy to pay a little more! I'm glad to see you are enjoying it! It looks lower quality than non cali weed ive seen on Hootans page before....But proofs in the pudding!!.....how mamy puddings did you eat on the munchies it gave you? Hahahaha

Harvested and packaged 2019 July, maybe its been in transit since then.

Lol or they walked here with it :) dam that's some old weed

Just what lb needs! More wildly overpriced,highly dubious "Cali"!

Has anyone smoked this? From this vendor?

Been sat a year but guarantee it be a better smoke then most around had a good few of these packs lately an the mans not lying

Try us out bud we're getting fab reviews!

I would drop the price abit mate you would get more sales

They were a tad lower bud but a bit extra was added on the weight as well as 0 on postage with extra stealth. Just a small time artisan grower putting a price on my time and risk.

Let's be honest about "cali" as it comes down to one word only. Commercialism.

Its just what the yanks do best. It's the only thing they're bloody good at lmao and most here in the UK go along with it too.

Can't fault sellers for filling a market though! Even though it's a crazy one.

What i cannot get my head around is UK growers and edible makers using USA branded packaging (Nerds) for sales. Don't they want to seperate themselves from the american market?

The best growers will definitely. But unfortunately the internet has told people that UK weed is shit while anything with american branding sells at double to triple the price.

I'm with you though, I hope more UK growers back themselves in the long run.

I’ve been smoking 30 years and only go on holiday to places with easy access to weed and the best weed I have had was grown in uk.

Yup some banging weed in the UK mate, the people who believe the internet campaigns don't know what they're missing out on ;)

The best comparison i can use for this is boxing vs ufc. UFC can get stuff done quickly because they do everything in-house. Boxing requires more effort because there are more 3rd parties involved. Thats what it is like with comparing usa weed to british weed, they have the legislation to get stuff done quick and uncontested while we in britain have to do it underground whilst looking over our shoulder. When we have the same legislation to match, then the salt and pepper will be on our side of the table and you will be seeing alot more quality in Britain. Weed growers in the usa have the government on their side and growers in the UK are a pariah.

Absolutely Scooby, if legislation ever catches up we will have the same or better quality than any cali lab, and there are several British growers who already give them a run for their money. But money talks and I'm told a lot of the top geneticists are living in California now so they are likely to be the first with the best new hybrid strains.
Roll on legislation!

The quicker we get legal over in uk the an we get our shit on market the better! I keep hearing that cali does it best an they do atm because they can if we get that freedom there's nothing saying we cant match them or even go one better? Legally

Yeah man, the fake mylar bags are a real issue. Not these bags, but can get 3.5s of the above strain:
https://highsocietyonline.co.uk/product/dr-greenthumb-insane-og-3-5g-mylar-bag/
The nerds ropes are easy to make and so probably a decent way to sell edibles, but the details on it wont be correct ie THC content. It is a coconut oil based product and i imagine trim and shake be used to make them. Have def had medibles bags which were complete duds, but have heard the nerds ropes work.
Really wanted to try dr Greenthumb stuff, but the money is crazy. Import cost is just postage lets be honest so the markup here must be tasty. Dude is running a business though i guess

Yeah well said. Just fukin lol at people looking at pics on here and saying.. oohh that doesnt look like cali. Ffs lol. Not purple enough? mmmnn kk. :)

No weed ever worth that much. Just another vendor trying make big money by buying the packs from eBay. Look At the weed mostly covered in leaf. Anyone who buys this needs there head looking at.

Appearances can be deceptive?? an nobody saying you have to buy it?? Obviously those that have a clue will pay for the champagne lifestyle remember this is the old skool og it wasnt about how it looked back then

What the fuck has champagne lifestyle got to do with weed mate. I have been smoking since the eighties and how it looks has always been important. Out of all my favourite smokes over the years the ones at the top have always looked amazing. Do you, " pay for the champagne lifestyle? " What are these packs like?

i love all forms of thc from flower to concentrates hash an edibles (moonrocks for life!) So unless you know how to grow an extract yourself then it can get pretty expensive unfortunately :( so yeah i do pay for a champagne lifestyle. And like your self i have been at it a long time an i like to try alsorts an i tell you now theres flowers that you look at an think wtf is that pond weed! Then you taste it an its pure naughty?? Sure enough you been in that situation?? We all love pretty flowers but like i said earlier appearances can be deceptive

Are there any uk sellers on here for moon rocks? I make my own zombie sticks with rosin and kif when on holiday. If you are willing to pay for a smoke, you should give Jamaica a try now that it’s legal there. Kaya herb house in ochorios do some wonderful weed. There dabs are the best I have tried but it may just be the surroundings as all dabs fuck me up.

Haha lovely! Cant beat getting smashed on foreign soil as for moonrocks on here a few vendors have had them but as we all know the packaging will kill your beautiful rocks :( so mixed reviews

Yeah, I get you. I just find this interesting that some people have to be told That stuff is imported and they will pay over the odds. Its like my wife in an American candy store. The best flower I have had was UK grown but I do find that concentrates are better abroad.

mate i am with you there i know i have had uk an dutch thats as good or on par easy! Again i think its horses for courses peoples preference an i feel the only reason foreign concentrates are better is purley because there allowed to produce them legally an market them. So the sooner we get legalised the better

This guy gets it.

You can buy these packs on eBay for 2.99.

And etsy. I have my suspicions these are old packs, filled in the UK.

and what would give you those suspicions may i ask?

agreed they are old packs as the label states the date?

i can get very high quality UK weed as ive already proven... why would i then go and tarnish my reputation and name by putting UK weed in packages.

makes 0 sense but im interested to see where your suspicions have arisen from

Tbh your "high quality" weed didnt even get a review from me. I didnt rate it. I guess there are a lot of people on here who would get excited by "cali weed" and wouldnt really know the difference to compare ;) we see it a LOT with these 10/10 reviews...its a common topic for discussion.

Doesn't matter how much you prove your worth or value as a seller mate, there are some characters in here who will immediately call foul, for no reason other than they like to create a fuss, and its normally the same old names.
Those who do trust and use you as a seller, are likely to continue to do so. The others - stuff em, you got nothing to prove.

Your skittles “Cali” you had was awful. So don’t no where you get that from

could be a pair of shoes mate. You really are feeling the need to defend yourself here....surely, the product will do the talking for you....

Has anyone smoked this yet?

first orders were sent out today as it was listed over the weekend

Hootan sources some of the best weed you have ever seen so he should be given the benefit of the doubt, he did not have to be honest and say the weed is a year old, there will have been many sellers who would have left that part out.

Only when it was pointed out how old it is

Be interesting to see it reviewed.

At £15.20 a gram it is a decent price for Cali weed. I was buying Space Monkey tins (3.5g) for about $70 so it is about the same. Weed can last for years if stored properly so there is no worry there. I see no problems here, its the seller who has the problem because anything less than 'good' will not be acceptable.

Way over the odds

If you’ve ever had this you’d know why this is a bit more expensive. The nuggs are so tight you can’t crumble with your fingers, as these need grinders. Lovely taste and very potent smell. Try this and you’ll not be disappointed

Look at the pic and the trim job, never seen cail weed that needs that much help.

The trim is not what I would expect from a legal place.

its imported from california. and this level of product is usually listed here at 200$ for 7g

ive cut the price due to the packs being a year old but still smoke just as good.

No smoke on this planet worth 200 a q smh

Thats just your opinion. Why dont you google Subjective Theory of Value and educate yourself before makimg mindless comments like that.

It's not worth cause of the product but because of risks and import expenses. If it's not worth then it wouldn't be around for these prices. Just because u think haircut should be £1 don't mean it should be. They best lights chemicals and don't use pesticide they use natural ways to control that. And the taste is different if u would smoke uk grown and cali grown. There are some uk amazing quality but still not as good as vendors in cali doing legally and best way while here people wanna do quicker. And everyonr almost out on littlebiggy premium bud lmfao they must of never smoked cali. And yh is expensive but you can always buy and ounce and the. Is loke 250-400 quid depending on strain or just get someone that will send ffom cali and the. Even cheaper thd bigger ammount u get. But saying is not worth it is just opinion not market and real life cause that's the prices it goes for. Cali weed is best and each individual bud is tested and inspected to perfection and if it's not the. Its not dispensary grade just import of some cali grower.. the thing is people sell high prices even from amatuer cali growers this price should be only be valid for dispensary grade cali but people lie and sell cheaper quality as tin quality. Im not sure about hootan will need to see in future how legit his cali and sources are but gods connect i tried and does genuine cali but jow vocation but this looks appealing for the price maybe a lil old but if been sealed good then i see no problem

agreed

How much would this cost in an American dispensary today?

around 110$ + the taxes which is another 30$

Cheers.

I see, Thanks for the quick response...price make sense.

Price of a q from a dispensary is $60-$70 in the states and $55 in Canada. And this is a year old and not from a dispensary.. I'm sure this is dynamite,but it's not worth $140 for me.

you are not getting 7g in the dispensary for 60$ add 50$ on that + the taxes.

ive lived in cali, i know the prices

I'm persona non grata in the land of the "free and the brave"! But I did use price data compiled by save on cannabis's kat Austin in 2020. Either way, I'm sorry,but $140 a q is nuts. P.S. Be wary of charging what the market will stand because markets change.

Proce of a q in dispensary is 60-70 dollars.. ok then get me one and i pay. Then you can talk.

You can fly to the east coast and hit up a dispensary for fresh weed for less than two of these Q's!

That doesn't make any sense then give me a flight ticket and hotel... Because this is UK. Unless u can get me 60-80dollar cali this comparison is completely useless so what is 60 in usa we are in UK. I can say in columbia 1g of pure cocaine is 10 dollar a g but why is there noone doing this around eu for that price? Very simple. Might aswell stop replying because your argument is nonsense idc if i can get cheap coffee beans in africa i aint gonna go africa to get it.

people will say anything nowadays. i told myself i wouldn't get too involved in the politics this time round.

those who buy from me know what they get, and they also know the level of service they get before and after their purchase.

we're nearly sold out, thank you all for your continued support.

have a blessed sunday.

Hootan,to be clear, I'm not doubting the legitimacy of your product. I AM doubting your business model.
It's just a suggestion,but if you want to do well factor in value to customer over profit . This thread alone should tell you all is not well in the state of the market (it's not just LB) since covid. Sure,you can make a LOT of money in the short term,but even more in the long term IF you adapt your business model. Just some advice from someone else working professionally in the drugs field.

If you think you can do better why not spend your time and effort offering all of us here some cheaper priced Cali instead of providing unsolicitated bad advice.

Many have complained about price yet they are not vendors and cannot provide what Hootan is providing. Stop co.plaining and do better if you can.

I do better and if you search the dark web you will too. It's not rocket science.

Mate take me to your vendor!
