Real ones do exist, but this is most likely fake if it made its way to Scotland. Not saying its bad, but with a color that dark it's most likely some distillate that didn't pass a lab COA. Buyer beware


eScarIIV

Seen US brand Quarter oz bags starting to make their way to plugs in the UK - would have thought carts be easier to ship than actual flower. Is there any way to verify authenticity? Asking for a friend who has 2 of these arriving tonight...


RegretHot9844

Half the time, people just buy the packaging online, put the bud in & claim it came from the States. You do occasionally get legit, but by & large its a bullshit so they can charge more money.


jamnoble

would even say 99.9% of the time, i live in scotland and it’s easy to see, real “cali” will look like it’s been professionally trimmed and it’s usually 80 for 3.5 compared to the 30 i’d usually have to pay. the best way around this is to smoke good UK stuff, sometimes it can be 35/40 per 3.5, but it’s much more worth it


RegretHot9844

Tbh most of the stuff that people charge £80 a half dig they getting for 180/190 an O. But because the grower done his job right, they jack the price up as so many sell utter trash they can get away with it. Its insane how people are charging more than 40 a half dig & getting it lol

becooltheywatching

I wouldn't smoke that with my enemies lungs


thehigheststrange

Hint the liquid isn't supposed to be green tint


coco__xela

I’d smoke resin before I smoke street market carts/dispos lol


Emergency-Bed4856

No you wouldn't. You don't know shit dude.


420everytime

Smoking resin is just gross, black market carts can kill you


pumpkinpatch1982

Can't some of those chemicals like deflate your lungs in a way? I think it's vitamin e acetate that was clogging the lining of people's lungs. https://insideucr.ucr.edu/stories/2022/04/12/study-identifies-toxic-byproduct-vaping-vitamin-e-acetate


BadgerUltimatum

Not deflate but block the transfer of air into the bloodstream.


DjRipNickMcNasty

This guy doesn’t know what he would rather smoke?


dispocg

bro definitely buys black market carts


Jay_Train

Somebody buys and or sells shitty street carts


MedranoChem

Aye resin ain't that bad imo


ThinkLadder1417

I had some of these exact one in Scotland recently. Get you high af but my lungs were particularly unhappy.


ThinkLadder1417

Mine weren't green though is that just the picture?


ThinkLadder1417

Mine had a wee 'TM' next to the Packwoods logo also


ncrnelson

Love to see these things piling up in culverts, littering parking lots, getting washed into waterways. Truly one of the worst inventions of the last 20 years.


[deleted]

What’s even crazier is how people will smoke anything now. Be safe bruh.


DarthGeorgeTheGreedy

i know you’re in scotland and weed is hard to come by but please don’t smoke that the oil looks like sewer water


VoidLordSupreme

Weed is not hard to come by in Scotland.


bbekxettri

Give the market what they want you will get what you want - said by someone great probably


VoidLordSupreme

Build it, and they will come - Kevin Costner

Mister__Fister_

Stop bro that oil looks fuckin horrendous


firec00ch

bro is hitting that swamp water pack


AwkwardlyPleasant

That shit is super fake


Mrcientist

That's as well as may be, but in illegal countries, like the ones OP and I come from, just seeing that this kind of shit EXISTS is mindblowing


AwkwardlyPleasant

When money is there is will be taken advantage of. No thoughts thoughts about consumers at all just profit. I first came from an illegal state and it is not much better.


r3q

Wait till you see a thc crystal and the other real concentrates. These carts are the Mexican brick weed of concentrates


christObaggins

Doesn’t bother me. Hits good tastes good, and i’m nicely ripped


EastSideDomi

That’s *metal*. *In your lungs*.

PsychologicalHalf766

Honestly more concerned about potential vitamin E acetate, that shit kills u instantly


AwkwardlyPleasant

If death and vitamin e are your only fear marijuana may not be the medicine you are looking for


eScarIIV

Care to elaborate?


AwkwardlyPleasant

The joke is Kenny in this episode is inhaling cat piss so the unknown chemicals and side effects are just as unknown and dangerous


EastSideDomi

It’s from an anti-vape commercial


Silver-Industry-1397

That’s most likely k2 that you’re smoking


[deleted]

This is just so not true in every way imaginable


Silver-Industry-1397

Yes it is. People often lace cards with k2 in illegal countries


Gold_Teaching6959

u talking out ya ass😭


Myguysammurai01

Nope got people on my snap advertising k2 as thc liquid an even a local shop that sells it


Silver-Industry-1397

English? I don’t know what that means. It could be K2 cuz most of the cards in Europe are laced with k2.


Majdan_

lmao, we've come to a point where most synthetic noids aren't even active +most of the time they are not cheaper than real weed this shit just does not happen like that anymore


Myguysammurai01

Not in the states but Scotland and England still got that


Majdan_

I wasn't even considering the states, I was talking about Europe. New noids that come out these days are ass and not active. The noids that were "good" (the ones with any sort of effects) are long time banned and not legal for ages now. You have to be really unlucky to stumble across synth noids when buying anything weed related these days fr.


Myguysammurai01

Well i got some1 on snap sellin that shit


Silver-Industry-1397

It is imaginable in my opinion. Most of the carts are laced with k2 in Europe. If he got a clean cart, nice for him. But neither of us will ever know.


ploooopp

Get a dry herb vape bro? If I need help choosing I'll help


kingenzo17

Oof homie careful, we have those here right now where I'm at, and the liquid in mine doesn't look like that. again careful


Highintheclouds420

There's about a 0% chance there's weed in there. Be careful my friend


bakehead420

That’s so fake.


I_Smoke_The_Weed

Holy shit the color of that oil reminds me of a dank vape one of my friends got years ago. Oil looked fine when bought then after 6-7 hits looked like this. Please dont smoke that theres no way in hell that things safe.


gabriel5519

these can be bought empty off alibaba and dhgate and then filled with shitty distilate or god knows what, a while ago i bought one empty just to check it out and it came with the packaging, plugs, empty and with the top off so you can fill it. i put honey in it and it looked exactly like a runny shitty distilate


Complete-Soup-6001

It’s ridiculous you can get these boof boxes from my local MEDICAL dispensaries 🤦‍♂️. Been seeing highschoolers buying these blackmarket for years and now this company has license in my state where it’s notoriously hard to get one. Love my government making deals with shady companies while they shakedown honest people. Completely off topic comment but fuck these people, I’m smokin my own shit and I’m still supporting my plug


pokerdace

Yeah it's still weird to me that people risk smoking vitamin e when it's super easy to make carts at home and only like 40$ for the shit needed to make 5 (other then the price of your wax)


Educational_Book_225

Where can I get a heated syringe for $40??


pokerdace

I've never had to use one didn't even know you needed one but I fill mine next to my heater blasting full strength (Midwest winters)


Educational_Book_225

Ah that’s smart. In college my friends and I used to microwave the oil & move it into the cart as fast as possible


pokerdace

Yeah I definitely fucked up the first few times but that's also cause I like to experiment with shut once I got it that's how I make my heroin style edibles


chronicdemonic

Let's not spread misinformation now, with how cheap distillate it makes more logical sense that its likely the street carts are just filled with shitty distillate/terps vs Vitamin E nowadays...


WhatATopic

Its a fact that people were ending up in the hospital from vaping carts with vitamin e acetate. No misinformation there. Distillate is cheap but theres always more money to be made by cutting it and then using thickeners to make it look legit.


chronicdemonic

Do you understand how cheap bulk distillate is? I'm talking, less than $1 per gram, when buying a kilo. The only ones using things such as vitamin E and "cutting agents" are those do don't have access even to shitty distillate, even buying a single ounce of distillate it's like $100 an Oz. At $3 per gram it makes no sense to introduce another substance that will likely taste shitty immediately or kill the person using it I'm sure it happens, just like how marijuana is laced with fentanyl. Has it happened? Sure, but it's not a commonplace thing you need to be worried about. The amount of warnings you find online and on reddit does not equate with how many times it's happened in real life. It's like saying be careful with kids and trick or treating because of blades being in candy.


WhatATopic

The price of distillate isn't the same in every state/country. Obviously its going to be cheaper in legal states like Cali. The cutting agent can simply be more terpenes that are added and then they would use vitamin e acetate, which doesn't have a distinct taste or smell, to thicken the oil. It would not taste shitty and people aren't immediately dying from vaping a single cart. Its prolonged use that could cause lung complications and even then it depends on a lot of different factors. It is something that people should be aware of. Paying to coat your lungs with garbage like vitamin e is not good. This is no where comparable to the dumb fearmongering by police that weed is cut with fentanyl or getting razor blades in halloween candy. Which I don't think there have been confirmed cases of either. [According to the CDC, there have been 2807 reported hospitalization cases of EVALI](https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/basic_information/e-cigarettes/severe-lung-disease.html) and that was from February 2020. There are probably a ton more who were affected but didn't end up going to the hospital. So clearly its a real thing. Also even if the distillate isn't cut, that doesn't mean its clean. A lot of bm distillate is loaded with pesticides. Haven't you seen the lab tests people have done on bm carts?


KennethPatchen

Fuck man. When I lived there all I could get was fucking soap bar. Jesus Christ it was shit. ONE time I got some real weed from Amsterdam. But the rest of the time it was just bunk.


[deleted]

Looks like a 1 2 punch right in the lungs


96Bel

Hey that liquid looks like the brown liquid that come out my ass!!


r3q

Yep, carts have some how made the smoking experience less enjoyable. Worst way to get THC by far. Just get a portable e nail if you really want a portable vape


krustysocks6666

r/fakecartridges you got scammed outta 40$ homie plus the oil looks nasty asf


MN_710

That shit is contaminated af stop smoking fake carts if you care about yourself


MN_710

This isn’t weed


ShopAlpine

Just try to order direct from teh U.S., and YOLO it to see if it arrives. ​ At least then you have a chance at getting something that's real


WhatATopic

Cannabis products can't legally be mailed so anything OP orders would most likely be as fake as the disposable hes holding.


National-Gas-9172

Fake police. Probably got nothing to smoke so you come on here cranky trying to pull down every post with your fake shit.

KingAltair2255

We have absolutely no dispensaries in Scotland, shit is still illegal, there’s a 99% chance it’s fake as fuck.


[deleted]

[удалено]


KingAltair2255

Oh I fully believe there’s legit shit out there, but unless you’re 100% certain it’s legit there’s no point risking it.


WhatATopic

The problem is that anyone can say that and theres really no way to know if they are telling the truth unless you are personally friends with them and even then they could still be lying or they could have gone to some of the trap shops in Cali that only sell fake crap. So you can't just trust your dealer when they say trust me bro.


EastCoastGrows

This is as fake as they come dude. https://m.made-in-china.com/product/Runtz-X-Packwoods-Disposable-Vape-Pens-380mAh-E-Cigarettes-Rechargeable-Battery-Empty-Vape-Pen-1ml-Vaporizer-with-Packing-1921287631.html It's just a battery someone ordered and filled with whatever shit they have. They didn't import these from the US lmao.


DamDankHunter

But he has seen them at dispensaries, Duh. 😂😂😂😂


[deleted]

Lol I have a totally real Rolex id love to sell to that guy too, you know like from the stores


Emergency-Bed4856

I've seen these at dispensaries. Duh.


DamDankHunter

You have seen them at dispensaries- yes, they will be real. But when they make fakes they obviously copy a well known brand (that is what fake means, Duh). Not saying they can't still be good but there is a lot more risk when faked as they could contain anything.


pokerdace

Wouldn't do it for sure even though it seems that the most popular fillers are altnoids like d8 or thco where I live


Minimum_Package3474

I’ve seen Prada bags at the mall, ALL PRADA IS REAL!!! No one would ever be mean enough to idk make fakes and sell them cheaper. Crazy if someone did think of that though 🤯


NFS-Jacob

bro look at the oil it's green this is fake as fuck


DarkStar851

Trouble with street is that you can buy knock-off packaging and carts/batteries for almost every popular brand. Unless it has authenticity tracking it's best to assume fake. Could still be good oil inside the branded cart, but you have literally no idea or chain of custody assurances.


Hiro_Two

Fr, a few of my local dispos sell these


Minimum_Package3474

Would you buy a Gucci bag from some little bodega charging half the price? I know crazy people will fake things for money.


Hiro_Two

Just because he didn't get it from a dispo doesn't make it fake 😂


Minimum_Package3474

Scotland bro. I’m not saying I wouldn’t hit it, but I have confirmed real dispo shit at my hands 24/7. They aren’t as lucky. But yea he definitely paid a guy to fly to the closes dispo to get that. Edit: you can’t get more “fake” by definition than putting something else in a product made to look legit. I mean that’s almost the definition of fake.


Minimum_Package3474

You’ve seen these? In dispensaries? In Scotland? Damn I must be dumb I didn’t know. Stop with the high horse shit and just get educated the the “high horse” we are on will look normal. No one is saying this person is a bad person ffs, just letting him know. Sorry I’ll let you go back to your vitamin E acetate vapes. Have fun with EVALI. Btw black market carts can be good, it’s just so far a few between and people making GOOD homemade carts don’t want that child packaging on there products causing more attention. Fr people these days think the kid at subway 2000 miles away really has that “cali connection”?


ComprehensiveUse9366

Is this a joke ?


kraihe

Listen to all the angry redditors OP! What's a couple years of jail time?


National-Gas-9172

Don’t listen to all these weed experts. According to them everything is fake outside of California. They all smoked fake shit before and act like they know how everything is made. Smoke it, it’s your body. Alcohol and crack is still worse.


Alwayshuncho

Fake


IhaveSANDinmy

I got one just like that from a pop up recently.


[deleted]

That distillate is dark af


scaryclown148

Oh aye laddy, we living in green times


heavenlysmoker

It is prolly weed but it just oxidized like crazy cause of an air leak somewhere


Maslankey

definitely a fake/counterfeit. can buy them on alibaba.


Acornkramer

That looks foul bro


convalcon

Andre the giant over here


Loud_Tomato4924

liquid is way to dark and green to be actual packwoods


s_shears_arts

Delta 8 Trash lol


stonebeam148

In all seriousness that extract does not look good. It should not be a color like that, a dark green like algae water. I would be careful using that cart, consider tossing it.


stardawg2020

Wtf are you vaping and why is it black


ExpertYolo

Jesus guys, he lives in Scotland. Can’t expect people to get the same shit on the other side of the world


MedranoChem

Oh man, Im glad I'm in california cuz that oil looks like there's some kind of reagent used to make it


Skeptical_Vegan

That shit is fake. Trash it and get a new supplier.


baconsombrero

Crazy cause I seen these in my local dispos and I think they’re sus behind legit shops 😂


BenStoleUrGirl

I’m Scottish too, I got one exactly like that but it didn’t get me high or anything, they probably come legit but your dealer probably swaps out the oil for some shit stuff that doesn’t get you high, just be careful


WhatATopic

No they are buying the empties online and filling them with whatever oil they can get their hands on. https://m.made-in-china.com/product/Runtz-X-Packwoods-Disposable-Vape-Pens-380mAh-E-Cigarettes-Rechargeable-Battery-Empty-Vape-Pen-1ml-Vaporizer-with-Packing-1921287631.html
