I'm crossposting stuff from Zoklet for a while to help traffic :thumbsup:
I've been buying various herbal blends at Puff 'n' Stuff lately because I lost my only connection and I'm not the sort of person who knows how to get shit from strangers.
I'd had K2 Summit from this place, and found it decent. The other day I went in and they had a large bag of it, about 6x4 inches. The label claims "3 Grams". Head shop guy said it's actually an ounce or something. It was $159.99 before tax which works out to a pretty decent price considering what the little bags cost. I just got paid so I bought it, took it home, burned, good stuff. While burning I researched K2 to see what I could find out about it, and one of the first things I find is that most K2 is fake.

These and various other web pages and news articles list certain states of suspicion as well as manufacturing red flags. I've read that one especial indicator is manufacture in Peru or Cameroon. Mine says "MANUFACTURED IN PERU".
It also does not list all supposed ingredients of real K2:
This incense package contains a proprietary blend of herbal and synthetic extracts including: Canavalia rosea, Clematis vitalba, Nelumbo nucifera, & Ledum palustre."
NOT FOR CONSUMPTION
FOR AROMATHERAPY USE ONLY
Net Weight: 3 grams
MANUFACTURED IN PERU

I submitted a report at

Yeah, I snitched. I just paid $160 for fake shit I don't even know what's in it. So, yeah, I snitched. Fuck 'em.
The people I reported to replied and said they're sending me a bag of real K2 Ultra. Sweet. Also said something about how those morons are getting sued.
I've read a bunch of sensationalist news articles about how fake K2 can have "illegal Schedule I substances" such as HU-210. I don't really give half a shit if it's illegal, I just want to know if it's harmful, but I can't find much online about its effects, though I guess that's expected of research chemicals.
Anyone know anything I should know?
Thanks.

considering i'm getting of probation this very week i don't give a care anymore...
still i was unaware of this counterfeit business and i will pass the word on to my less fortunate friends.
Cross posting? Let's see some real content. That's how it should be.
That was content. After reveiwing your posts it's more content than I've seen from you. Don't be negative when someone is trying to build this place up and provide some substance.
And conterfeit K2 sounds like such a rip off.
K2 knows how to do business.
