Yeah this has been mentioned before its probably because everyone has different tolerances so whats bad to you could be good to someone else but like you said most of it is probably because people are happy that they received their parcel all you can do is rate honestly mate

I only partake at weekends so tolerance was not what it once was. Be just good to have some kind of level to score everything against. Great community and all sellers I have dealt with are spot on. Guess the surprise is part of it and saves waiting in a car park for Dave.

It could also be worrying for someone to leave a bad review or honest review because that vendor would have your address so thats what could also be putting people of from being more honest

I see your point, but that would be worrying if that's the case. We just need a 7 star rating if you smoke every day really 7* if you are a weekend toker 2*. Etc etc, just seems some bud people rave about is average. Makes it harder who to buy from and trust.

I’ve been saying this for weeks, the system is just flawed imo, I’ve had amazing stealth, great coms, fast shipping etc but the product was meh... how do you rate that, me personally I rested low as imo the other things I mentioned are their job and I expect them to be good at it if I’m honest, the community doesn’t seem to think that, I’d like the rating to be for what you got... but really the system needs to have 2 sections, one for the above and one for the product you received.

As far as judging the quality of a product rating are quite useless. They serve some purposes but for the most part people are just happy not to be robbed. I just look out for the reviews from people I trust, but that isn't ideal either. Sadly what you have figured out is probably the best way to operate here, just stick to what you know to avoid disappointment.

a 9.2 is a like a high 6. the problem is that ratings systems usually degrade into a binary like 10 non-10. you gotta stratify what emerges from that.
