First time reviewing here am I doing this right?
After a long time of not ordering anything on DNM's I was more or less forced to do so because my guy bought a caravan and is "on holiday for an indefinite holiday", his words not mine. I was hesitant to order again because of bad vendor experiences in the past. I went with ordering on AlphaBay from the vendor "FastDeliveries" because it was domestic (Germany) and the price was right for me. I normally buy shitty to moderatly well weed from different local sources or on vacations in the Netherlands. It took three days (day of placing the order early in the morning not included) for the package to arrive. Since there wasn't much stealth to begin with since it was a domestic shippment I'm feeling comfortable that I can upload images. Plain brown paper bag with a printed label and a standard stamp. The product I was going with were 10 gram of the so called strain "Northern Lights Extreme". I'm no Expert here but neither a total noob and have never heard of an "Extreme" Variation within Northern Lights.1 I'm pretty sure this is Northern Lights which is a somewhat popular strain around here and fits the smell and taste profile pretty good. The weed was double vacuum sealed in thick plastic and was really compressed. That "brick" was within another light plastic bag which I'm not going to show here. As you can see in the images it was more a brick of weed and I wasn't able do really identify single nuggets due to the stickiness of Northern Lights beeing naturally covered in crystals. As far as the product itself I can only refer to the description on Leafly:
Pungently sweet, spicy aromas radiate from the crystal-coated buds, which sometimes reveal themselves in hues of purple. Northern Lights' psychoactive effects settle in firmly throughout the body, relaxing muscles and pacifying the mind in dreamy euphoria. Comfortable laziness allows patients to relieve pain and sleeplessness, while its mellow contentment roots out depression and stress.
It was exactly like that for me. I smoked a few joints and shouould be around a good [8] around now.

Couldn't bring myself to givin it a full five stars overall because shipping time could have been faster (it was reasonably fast though) and the weed was really compressed and it was impossible to get single nugs out due to it being so sticky (Not the worst thing to happen but I just like to see the actual bud in all it's glory).
Footnotes
1 - I know Northern Lights, Northern Lights #5, Atomic Northern Lights, Bhang Northern Lights and Northern Lights #5 x Haze and I can't find any other strains like "Northern Lights Extreme" anywhere.
Nice review.
Glad to see more people doing in-depth reviews.
Keep it up
The weed looks horrible though, I am sure you could find a lot better weed from other vendors for cheaper price from Germany. PM if you want suggestions.
