The Good:
Pack landed 3 days after ordering
I got 5 carts for $60!
Carts were packaged nicely so they were not shaking around in the box
The Bad:
Vendor only used one mylar bag, and I could smell the weed as soon as I opened the Priority Mail box. I dont know if he had the oil on his hands during packaging, but there was a clear (although faint) smell of weed before opening the mylar bag.
Vendor used stamps instead of printed postage
The carts are weak. I tried one with a standard o.pen style battery and get very little vapor. It took about 10-15 hits to get to a [3]. By comparison, it takes 1-2 hits of THCClear's carts to get to a [3] and 3-4 hits of Medibuds carts to get to a [3]. I tried with an adjustable battery and still had no luck. All five carts hit weak, and the high does not last as long as THClear or Medibuds.
If you use these carts to microdose they may not be a bad option for the price, although I'd still recommend Medibuds carts for microdosing and THClear for getting high.
tl;dr Vendor used some questionable shipping methods, and the product is weak. Not recommended.
PS: Maybe someone with more knowledge about ecjuice can help out here, but I don't understand what would cause low-volume clouds on these. If he was mixing a lower ratio of oil to juice, it would still product clouds but not be potent.
I may try to acquire a standard tank and fill it with DiscountCart's juice and see if that works better. Maybe he's using lower quality carts than the other guys.
Is the liquid thick or very thin? He could be using a PG based liquid which carry flavor...VG based (which is very thick) will give you clouds.
