Title: 420Caps Official Thread - Weed Capsules and Premium Bud - CAN/USA
Post by: 420Caps on April 20, 2012, 03:56 pm
[UPDATE: June 15]

New listings are up for premium JEAN GUY. This is a nice sativa-dominant hybrid, it hits both the head and body when you smoke it and doesn't have that overly edgy feeling like some pure sativas do. I'm selling 3.5g for $55, 7g for $99 + $20 tracked shipping.

Photos will be up in a few hours.

More info in my offer thread:

=====
I'm a new vendor from Canada selling mainly weed and weed capsules, and hopefully some other products later on. Currently only shipping to the USA and Canada.

This will be the official thread for reviews, questions, complaints, etc.

UPDATE:

All but one of the samples has shipped, waiting for a reply from one person. All the US ones are being shipped by air mail so hopefully it won't be too long of a wait. The Canada one was shipped Xpresspost since it wasn't much more so hopefully we'll have a review by the weekend ;)

For most of them, I put all the pills all in one bag (and double-vac sealed) so the supplements may get some loose oil on them during transit but they should be fine to take otherwise. Worse case, toss the bag in the freezer to solidify them., probably a good idea anyway to be safe. Shipping process will be modified accordingly for future orders.

I may have a small batch (~125 capsules) for sale on Friday of both Chocolope and Lemon Skunk capsules. If you want to reserve some, let me know. I might do a half&half mix of the two for that batch of orders to offer some variety and since i don't have a lot. They're both hybrids, more on the sativa side but they seem to be good for pain too. Good day time high.

I was going to offer cheaper shipping in exchange for finalizing early but SR just changed the policy for new vendors (cannot finalize for 3 days). Shipping with tracking is more expensive but safer for everyone and the piece of mind is probably worth the extra cost for most people here especially after the Tony fiasco.

No. No one is interested in finalizing early.

Yeah I don't expect many people to bite on it but it's there if people want to use it.

EDIT: Only just found out about the policy change for FE so scratch that.

New listing up, check the first post for details. I only have enough for a few orders so if you want one, get it quick!

http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/94076dfbe3

I have also changed my escrow policy. Since I'm only offering shipping options with tracking, ALL orders will be going through escrow and NO early finalizing required even for 0 purchase buyers. I still reserve the right cancel orders if I deem them to be suspicious but hopefully it won't come to that. Hopefully this make make people feel more confident in buying from me.

Samples have been received by at least a couple people so far and they've promised to have reviews up here in the next few days. From the messages I've got they're being pretty serious about the testing process so I expect them to get a fair and extensive review. Feedback for the packaging has been good but I'm still going to try to make it better.
Title: Buy from this guy. Excellent product. 5/5
Post by: BlarghRawr on May 05, 2012, 10:27 am
Traditionally I've peppered my reviews with roughly 16 points upon which I use to claim that a product is absolutely awesome, but those reviews have been for cannabis as a plant whereas this review is about an edible by itself.

The first thing I would like to say is that if there are any strange typos of comments which appear to be to myself, that's because I typed this up in notepad before copy-pasting it over into the forums.

That said, 420caps(link goes here) product, which are cannabis capsules and intended to be edibles clearly, are quite powerful, at least with the included potentiators. I would say that my tolerance for standard edibles is actually quite high, but my tolerance for cannabis is quite low. With that in mind, I found 1.5 capsules with the included potentiators to be equivilent or better than the average cannabutter brownie.

I also made an attempt as extracting the thc from the contents of half a capsule, which is, I believe coconut oil, with isopropyl alcohol. I would call it a mixed success was I did manage to get high after evaporating it back into a liquid and then smoking it as an oil by itself, but it the process of converting one extracted form into another extracted form was wasteful.

And now that I have confirmed that the capsules are indeed active, and quite pleasent, I shall begin upon my full and proper review.

But first, two notes about this product:

A single capsule is equivilent to 0.08 grams. Given 1.5 capsules with potentiators effected me for a solid 6 hours before I had to succumb to drouseyness, it basically... it seems to be like smoking, divided by 4, but spread across 4 times the length.... so the result is identical to smoking the same amount, across a 6 to 8 hour period. Very powerful, very nice.

And the second note is a guide to my numerical ratings:
3/5 is average. Generally speaking, a 3/5 is what I would tolerate but cause me to avoid a vendor in the future. To be clear, 3/5 in a review = 5/5 in feedback.
4/5 is high-quality. This is the kind of rating that will make me quite pleased. No changes could be suggested. Consider a 4/5 to be a full recommendation.
5/5 is perfect. This rating is the highest I will give and indicates that something goes far and above the expected. Something could be learned from this.


420caps is perfectly communicative, often responding within less than 12 hours when I send him a message in the middle of the night, and within 2 if it is the middle of the day. I rate communcation as a 4/5 (great)

The packaging that these pills came within was perfectly acceptable [no details, of course ;)], with no scent to it externally or internally until the final vacuum-sealed bag is opened. I rate packaging as a 4/5 (great)

Shipping time was beyond superb. The product had to cross the Canadian-border to reach me and yet, from being shipped on monday it still reached me by the awesomely quick thursday. This is faster than the average domestic shipper. I rate shipping as a 5/5 (perfect)

Product smell is very strong and sticks to the fingers if you handle the capsules too much. It is the kind of thing that is perfectly capable of filling up a room and this isn't the kind of thing you would want on you in public. It smells distinctly like cannabutter but a touch stronger, and I'm told by 420caps that he will be decarbing his cannabis directly into the cannabutter in the future, to preserve a strain's unique scent and flavour. I rate smell as a 4/5 (great), and expect that his future capsules will be 5/5 (perfect)

The capsules do have a taste, mostly when burped after the consumption of them. It tastes much the same as it smells, quite potently at that, but it is not altogether unpleasent. Possibly consider using the contents on a piece of toast, if you find you don't like the smell. I rate taste as 4/5 (great), with the addendum that I am a bit sensitive to both taste and smell in edibles, and generally do not find them to be pleasent. This is a personal thing of mine however, so I can confidently say that the taste is, as said before, 4/5 (great), and just like with the smell, likely to be 5/5 (perfect) in the next batch.

Normally I would go over a lot of features of the product hear like the look of it as well as trichome coating and other such things, but as this is an edible those, sadly, have no where to go.

So, I will now consume all 3 potentiators and the four remaining capsules that were sent to me (the total was 6).

-6:00 Is the last time I consumed any solid food.
-0:10 Is time of consumption of all 3 kinds of potentiators. This has occurred at the time of this writing.
+0:00 Is time of consumption of 4 cannabis capsules. This has occurred at the time of this writing.
+0:30 No effects have been felt at this point in time, but that is entirely expected. It would be rather fast to feel it already.
+1:00 A light effect has begun to be felt at this point, as if my brain is being stroked with a kitten. A very soft kitten.
+1:30 I am not definitely and clearly stoned. At this point, I would recommend this product(don't forget to place the link here) highly! My single recommendation to 420caps would be to include more potentiators by request, for a fair increase of price of course.
+2:00 I now feel like I smoked a very big amount of weed.
+2:30 No changes here, really. I still FULLY recommend this product. It truly is amazing. I have nothing new to say, at this point.
+3:00 I am already beginning to feel tired, I assume part of this iis due to it being not much from what I was intending to sleep.
+4:00 This is what I meant about edibles putting me to sleep.

EDIT: I fixed the crappy formatting that occurred when I copy/pasted my review from notepad.

- Packaging 5/5
Packaging was as good as the standard set by other vendors.

- Communication 5/5
Vendor responds to communication daily, all communications were effective and clear.

- Product 5/5*
THC Pills were packaged very well, not sticky, looked and felt well constructed.

*Notes on potency:
SR users are all familiar with drugs so when it comes to potency, it's one of the main focus areas of a product. The THC pills gave a very relaxing, soothing, and slightly euphoric body buzz. The effect last about 4 hours and took about an hour to fully kick in. I took the sixth pill as well to keep the buzz going. I think customers with less tolerance would have been affected more greatly, I would feel comfortable going to work on probably 3 of them + supplements. Overall the pills were great and the buzz was very relaxing and creative. I would recommend this product to cannabis users but not THC heads!


Thank you for the sample 420caps, I'll be buying caps from you.

Great reviews so far, I'm glad people are liking them. There's 3 more sample packs out there, hopefully they'll post their reviews up soon.

As far as potency goes, I can't get it much higher than 0.10g each with bud since the leftovers absorb too much oil leading to diminishing returns. I'm looking to start making them from hash down the road but that will have to wait until sales pick up.

Since interest in the capsules has been less than expected, I'm going to start selling premium weed beginning next week. Just 3.5g and 7g to start and hopefully ounces in a month or so. I will probably try to offer mostly sativa and hybrid strains.

Rough Pricing, before fees:

3.5g: $50
7g: $90
14g: $160
28g: $300

CANADA Xpresspost (with tracking): $20
USA Expedited (with tracking): $25

Got the sample pack today, very happy.
5 days shipping to US, fast as fuck from Canada!
Vendor communication was great, and this guy is obviously a smart dude who knows his edibles and how they work inside n out.

The packaging was brilliant, and the caps are definitely well protected. Hell I'd have to stomp on the package hard before anything inside could be broken.


The caps provide a nice high. Ate all 6 pills and the other shit that boosts its potency, took a few minutes to swallow them all lol.
Nice soothing high that had my body pain-free for at least 4 hours. Very stealthy stoning as well, I will be interested in more caps soon definitely!

Weed listing is up now! I'll try to get a photo up soon. Only selling 1/8's this time around but will have more soon. The current strain is Popcorn Kush. Only shipping to Canada but will open it up to US orders soon. The strains are going to rotate a lot, but there's a good chance I might be able to offer Jack Herer and Purple Kush consistently later on if there's sufficient demand.
