hi everybody, wanted to start a thread on a relatively new vendor on SR. as of right now he's offering both weed and roxie's. not sure about his prices and quality of weed but the roxie's were great. i don't think any other vendor right now can compete with his buy 5 get 1 free(with free shipping). seems like a really nice guy with a very proactive approach to his vending. all comms done in pgp. his packaging and transit times were fantastic. i appreciate the deal that he gave me and hope you other opiate fans give him a chance. also hope that he can keep up his supply and continue to add good things to SR. keep up the great work baller!

I'm a bit backlogged on reviews I owe folks because I started to run out of matches earlier this week. As it stands, Ballervision is the first one I owe a review too. To start with, I was the one who was supposed to receive the variety pack but due to a shipping mix-up, I just got the C4 instead. Not a problem to me, though. Just means I'm only reviewing the C4. ;)
(Official review-thread version!)
So to start with, the C4 looks pretty bland on the outside of the bud, and by bland I just mean that it looks typical. Breaking the bud open, however, reveals some very good trichome development. A decent number of heavy heads sparkle under the light, though I can't comment on cloudy/amber qualities since I lack a microscope for that. I was actually too entranced with the trichomes to remember to actually check on the orange threads, but I think I remember some... not much, though. The C4 is very green, overall. Not much variation to that color.
Not much to say about the smell, sadly. It smells like pot is supposed to smell like and that is really all there is to it. Just good ol' regular pot-smell. But wait, that doesn't mean it's standard! You see, as part of my reviews I smoke a little bud. Well, at the moment, my bong is out of commission so all I have right now is a very short glass pipe. Because it is so small, smoking from it is harsh and I hit MUCH less than I do from my bong. And yet, despite kicking my tolerance into high gear very recently, and making sure to keep it up with some hash(to be reviewed later tonight), a tiny amount of the C4 has me feeling quite a bit of high. Pure cerebral or almost pure at least, concentrating on the review has become a bit of a problem...
So that's the high, done out of order no less, but what about the smoke? Well, as I said, it is harsh from the current pipe I've got but everything is harsh in that thing. There is no problem with holding it in or the like, though I don't hit it as hard in this pipe. In all honesty, the C4 is pretty typical for what I've seen on the Road... but what that means is that I think it's quite good.

Thanks to Ballervision for sending me a sample of his Berry White! It is fucking dank dank dank, covered with trichomes. Pictures for now, waiting for scale to come in mail tomorrow for a weighted picture along with a full review :)

Ballervision offered a 0.8 gram sample of Sour Diesel for cost of shipping.
The order was made Saturday and was marked in transit 3 hours later. Ballervision contacted us to remind us to include 9 digit zip codes when placing an order (Good tip).
The package arrived on Monday. We have received over 25 packages from SR, and this was the only one to arrive in 2 days. The packaging was high quality stealth: no smell, no shake noise, and no doubt someone else opening the package wouldn't know what's inside until they peeled through all the layers.
We received 2 dense nugs weighing in at exactly 0.8 grams. The SD smelled dank, very sticky, coated in trichomes and was well trimmed and cured.
The vape was passed around amongst friends while playing Super Mario Wii. A friend who never had SD before commented on the unique flavor and when the strain name was brought to her attention she definitely tasted why. It was a definite cerebral high and one MFLB trench was enough to have us laughing at all of our gaming failures.
This was some quality weed from a quality vendor. Thanks for the sample Ballervision.

I ordered his international shipping test of "(1) (WORLDWIDE TEST SHIPMENT) 2x OXYCODONE IR ROXI 15" which was completely free!
He is shipping from the US and i am from Germany.
After some hours ballervision contacted me that he has to give up this test because of the time and effort it would take to deal with customs.
That is totally understandable, since shipping from the US to the EU is a pain in the ass.
While canceling the order he donated me 0,73 BTC for my waste of time and hope for the roxies.
I never would have expected that and therefore really vouch for ballervision as a friendly and generous vendor here at SR.
So come on US buyers, give that guy a try - he will be worth it!

Received my .8 gram sample of the Sour Diesel on Tues.
Shipping/Packaging - 5/5 - Received in 2 days. Fastest package I've received from SR (maybe his recommendation to include the full 9 digit zip really makes a difference!). Packaging was great, stealthy, totally solid.
Product - 5/5 - I received .8 grams of popcorn buds. Light green in color and covered in trics. Ground up it gives off a lovely sour, citrus smell. Smoked from a GVG it provides a bouquet of grassy, fruity, and citrus tastes. It provides a heady high that I found to be very productive, in addition to which lasted quite long and was very strong.
Overall - 5/5 - All aspects of this transaction were great. I would purchase from ballervision again in a second, and would definitely buy more of this particular strain.

Exactly that. 5 for 3-4, 9 for 2-3.

Exactly that. 5 for 3-4, 9 for 2-3.
And bv was the first vendor I've seen who had that suggestion on their vendor page. +1 for that, that'll come in handy with all the domestic orders I place!

I realize this thread has been inactive for quite some time. However, I just wanted to put in my two cents about baller and I finally made it to 50 posts so I can now post outside the newbie board :) I wanted to post here also because if there is a first timer looking for a professional vendor, and they're super nervous (like I was) I just wanted to say you can totally trust bv. I searched around for a long ass time after doing all my homework and finally getting some bitcoins into my account. I was so nervous about: 1). getting ripped off 2). getting a shitty packaging job sent to my house w/ my name on it and getting busted 3). not getting what I ordered 4). ordering from LE and getting busted 5). and on, and on - basically getting ripped off or busted! What I can tell a newbie looking to make their first purchase (or anyone looking to make a purchase for that matter) is that bv answered my questions quickly, made me feel comfortable with the purchase, delivered quickly - about 3 days each time I have ordered from him, and delivered exactly what he has advertised! If those are the things you're looking for in a vendor, then you need to order from bv. He is an honest businessman through, and through!
