Overall comments: I almost didn't want to buy from this vendor because the price seemed too good to be true -- at the time of my purchase, skrillpapa was selling single grams of Lemon OG wax (claimed to be ~70%) for $24/g. That is a good bit under half of what most wax vendors are charging, so I decided to go for it and ordered a couple grams. Honestly I had quite low expectations in that there is usually a correlation between low price and low quality when it comes to wax. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by the product.
First off, though, the negative. Stealth and packing could really use some work. The package came in a priority shipping envelope. Both the mailing address and the shipping address were handwritten. The only visual barrier was a small paper envelope, and inside that was the parchment of wax inside one layer of clear vacuum seal. Obviously it got to me, but I'd be lying if I said it didn't make me a bit uneasy, especially given that a pouch of wax in parchment looks a lot like a stamp of heroin. Oh well. Shipping speed was good; ordered on a Tuesday night and received Saturday. Marked shipped within the first business day.
The parchment definitely isn't as nice as a good silicone tub or screwcap, but it got the job done. I wasn't convinced of the weight at first, but once I finally got it all scraped off the paper it became apparent that it was there; just be prepared to work for it.
The wax itself is pretty standard ooey-gooey stuff. Not quite pull and snap, not quite budder... It's not the gold standard of BHO by any measure, but given what I was expecting to get for $24/g I will say that I'm quite satisfied. I was expecting to be forced to purge this in the oven for a bit, but it actually seems quite well purged -- I get no crackling or sparking on the nail and it doesn't leave any residue.
The high itself is extremely mellow and relaxed. Usually I like super-heady sativas, but this is a nice change of pace. I took a few hits off a pen right before going to the gym and it made for a very pleasant visit, though it was equally nice to just hunker down on the couch and watch a scary movie with my wife. The product also has a surprisingly great taste. Very floral and citrus-y and not harsh on the lungs at all.
In all, I feel like at this price skrillpapa has the best value of any wax vendor, though I would really like to see him improve his stealth before I place future orders. Some of the recent reviews on evo have positive comments in this regard -- I don't know if he packs larger orders differently, but if so he should really apply all the same safety measures to his smaller orders as well. Once one of his got picked out it would be easy to identify his other packages thanks to the handwriting. If he improves in this regard I would make him a go-to for a good, cheap "everyday" wax.
