    I'm buying an Ounce tommorow, and have not bought that large of a quanity before. I was hopig to get a picture of an Oz, or something close, with something else in the picture to show the size of it, so I know around how much should be there.

    And before you say it, I'm already tryin to get a scale so i can weigh it out right there... the problem is, my friend is buyin it, the dealers leaving, then im picking it up... so i cant see the dealer weigh it...

    thanks

    Ummm...not something i would do, the chances of you getting ripped off from a dealer you dont even know or have not met is very high. But, you never know, it might come through, good luck :)

    Size varies greatly. Condensed or fluffy. Dried or not so dry. Nugs or shake. Has you friend bought ounces before? Tell him not to get it if he doesn't think it's an ounce.

    ask the dealer to weigh it out infront of your friend, don't be rude about it either. if he's dealing any weight at all, and if he has any brains, he'd have a scale. When buying an ounce, this kind of thing can be expected... I wouldn't ask a dealer to weigh out a gram or anything though.

    A lot of dealers like to sell one gram under an ounce in the U.S. because anything under an ounce is a misdemeanor. An ounce or more is a felony.

    whenever i am buying an eighth, i see it weighed out. I definently would see if an oz weighed. The whole situation seems kinda sketchy..

    if you pay more than $50, watch it get weighed. Feel it too (press against tissue paper a small bit, to test for moisture, especially on large quantities oz.+). Too many people don't properly cure/dry, or spray their stuff with water to add weight.

    Fuck middle men, if they are your friends or not, its weed. Get your own steady dealer so you dont gotta worry about getting ripped off. I mean, my friends have pinched weed off me when I get them to get it, while I have pinched weed off them when I got it for em.Friends or not, its a drug. I mean, I never pinched alot to make it look small or anything, ussually jus a joint or something, while ive had 'friends' take 2 grams out of my stash before...which really pissed me off.

    anything under a half i recomend a handscale(their jsut so nifty will the keychain and all:)) over a half u need a digi(cuz handscales get sketchy for anything of a half)

    your situation really depends on how cool the dealer is. If your friend is really tight with him, ask him to introduce you(hey man. this is my friend Jake, hes the one buyin and he buys alot so i thought id introduce him so i dont have to be the middleman anymore)
    if hes a prick, the best thign you can do is make sure your friend has a digi(maybe a knife too) and tell him to weigh it out on the spot(not after the dealer leaves or any shit like that) and if u get ur friend a digi and he has it in his pocket then tell him to ask the dealer to weigh it out on his scales, and if the dealer has none(SHITTY DEALER) then he can jsut pull out t he one u got for him to use.

    but like someone else said....if your paying more then 50 an O, i wouldnt trust the deal to go down smoothly without you there(make sure you trust your friend really really well...)

    Do a search for scales, you can get them for 18 bucks after shipping or so...and I've seen the exact scale I got in a headshop for 50+ bucks :)
