Message Refund Borg..

Normally take 24-48hr I think

You need to provide a btc address to refund borg and then he will issue the refund to that wallet

Could be a while for things to improve. Need LB to start accepting other cryptos!

UPDATE 11/052023

fees are still the same for me, been trying to witthdraw £50 from coinbase and it's asking for £21 in fees every time

does anyone know if i buy more bitcoin and try to withdraw it, the fee will be lower? i've seen this in the past even when the fees are normal, £100 can be cheaper to send than £50 for example, i wondered if that's the case right now?

i NEED to order today or else i'm fucked

No, doesn’t work. I had $105 in mine, trying to pay $90, wouldn’t let me. So I put in another $90, balance was $195. Tried to pay the $90, for ages was still saying dust error, then let me pay $90 but with a $32 fee 😭😭😭 someone on here did teach me about changing the fees, which you can do, but says it might delay payment. Bloody nightmare.

Bollocks! well thanks for letting me know!
Coinbase fees take the piss all year round anyway and now having to deal with this is beyond infuriating

this is so stressful for everybody, i really cannot understand why the topic of a new payment processor and currency isn't just pinned to the top of the topics wall till it's resolved

I tried to pay 105 dollars and the fee was 59 dollars.

08/05/2023

£21 fee to send £49 from coinbase to my wallet

obviously i didn't go through with it, which means i literally can't order

i feel so bad for sellers and buyers right now, we need to find a solution for this instead of just accepting it every time it happens

I just tried to put an order in and fees are £33! Looks like I’m gonna have to cancel order.🤨

I got 60£ fees on 300£🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ can’t doing anything now as it also cost 50£ to send to my bank account due to fees pisss take

Fuckin wild isnt it? I was sending 50 and got hit with 23 pound fee

Yes same. 59 dollars for 105 order so cancelled it. After sending £250 to my wallet but not paying those fees.

fees are extreme all over. Its a case of either holding off on purchasing and hope they fall back to normal over the next few days or paying 20%+ more than normal.

So do you reckon a few days time things will smooth out?

Yeah, saw a 1g tester for $10 I wanted to try.... $19 transaction fee though fuck that

Me too, didnt notice until it was too late

Same here, I slightly underpaid as well so it will cost me £26 to pay the £1.67 difference 😬😂

😩😩😩

Oh my fuck

Yep crazy fees. Gone from 0.77 p to over £4 to send coin for me.
Hiatus.

I purchased £260 of BTC on coinbase this morning 13-05-23
£1 fee to purchase the BTC
£6.73 fee to send straight from coinbase (I normally pay £1-2 total for both) good luck😎

Yeah,me,gonna charge £15-£17 for a £20 buy,wankers,I read something to do more ppl using crypto,high traffic.

Mad innit. Only saw this morning as I checked a cheeky 1g sample. £8 with a network fee of £18 😂

Its mental hahaha hopefully sorted soon

aye same for me with coinbase 22 pound in fees from 60 pound order, whats going on, noticed when was too late

Ripping everyone off before folding?

No it’s just how the transaction process works, the more busy the network is the higher the fees unfortunately, hopefully it dies down soon mate 🙏

yeh its teh eth gang with the new BRC-20 with mega high volumes of transactions. as every thing is based on the bitcoin genesis block. as every thign is a copy of it. while butcoin is the ultumate like god of digital currency and cant die offf or be replaced.

Why is the network so busy?

No idea ☹️

My wallet provider is charging loads. Gone up %500 in 2 days.
I tried to by half oz for 105 dollars and the fee was 59 dollars on top. Fuck that I cancelled. My wallet provider said its a back log of transactions being processed. Like 350.000 so to stop people buying bitcoin they have put the rates up until this is sorted.
It's everyone that's being effected on every platform. It's global.

Yup, £37 for a £25 buy.
Really want some eddys frenchy tech, just not with £12 in fees!

I had the same problem mate. I tried a prescription but the costs were ridiculous and i cancelled after a couple of months

that being said it did provide documentation stating i was legally permitted to use cannabis.

I sent the details to tower hamlets housing, and actually just told my neighbours i had a prescription, and just never told them when i cancelled it.

If you’re proactive about it there’s little they can do.

I still smoke a bong in the flat from time to time, but mostly use a dry herb vape with the window open and there are no issues with smell.

Best of luck! Remember the system is wrong, not you!

Hello there,

If it hasn't been mentioned already, try to get a script. There are plenty of places about that would help you, generally for a £50 or so consultation fee. They will assess your need, these weed places have their own doctors so it will probs be a video call. If you get accepted, buy some weed off them so you get a bag with a prescription stuck to it... Then I guess you refil the bag with whatever you want. One place that springs to mind is curaleaf

Get a filter that sucks up all the air in the room and an outlet pipe which connects or hangs off your window so the air that gets sucked from the inside get pulls straight out the gaff!

Your welcome

Hi, apologies if this is an old post. I'm in a similar situation.

A few months back I bought a purifier listed on Amazon as 'PureMate Smart Air Purifier with Ioniser mode, Air Quality Monitor, Display Off, Air Filter', cost about £120 with extra filters being £25ish, I think. That made a big difference though it's already not as good as it was when I first had it - it maybe just needs a new filter (or the old one hoovering!) There are smaller, cheaper versions but I can't comment on how good they are. I got one after seeing a similar post from bigga BBDoom. You probably don't need one with the ioniser or UV light, etc, they don't seem to make much difference? It makes a big difference to have it running while smoking but it's definitely not as 'quiet' as advertised - it also helps (to a lesser extent) if you just run it for a couple of hours after you've gone to bed.

Another thing that might help is to get yourself a good oil diffuser and have a few drops of oil in it that'll help mask the smell - PurEssential makes an oil that helps with smoke odours, and there are similar room sprays that supposedly do the same thing. Lots of stuff online about different diffuser oils that can help to hide smoke smells, etc. In my experience, people notice how 'nice' the room smells rather than anything else 😉😂. We've come a long way from burning some stinky incense (often bad for your breathing) and thinking it does anything other than obviously highlighting that you're trying to cover up a weed smell! Ahhh, the ignorance of my teenage youth! 😂

I've also seen some good smell-proof bags recently (but can't remember what they're called), everything from pencil case to rucksack size - available from Amazon (though I'd caution about having weed-related items in your Amazon history). They'll help reduce the smell if you can be arsed to keep taking everything in and out of it.

Finally, regardless of how 'clear' you think your room smells, get a non-smoking friend in to give you their opinion! You just don't notice the smell as much in your own home if you're constantly around it.

Please let us know if you find something that works well for you. Good luck! 👍

Diffusers whilst smoking will really mess up the air quality, you will have bud smell mixed with lovely oils which will really stench up a place. Your best bet is the filter which sucks the air with the duct connected to your window as the outlet(air output)… Do this and thank me later!

Yep, I didn't mean smoking whilst the diffuser's running - I run the purifier whilst (or after) smoking, and run the diffuser when not smoking (overnight or in the morning). Thanks for the clarification PE 👍. I'm interested in a filter ducting out the window but, when I see that, I always assume there's a grow happening, and I'd be worried that others would think the same.
If people have a similar setup for non-weed reasons, what is it actually for (ie what would you say it's for if someone asked)? I'd be very interested in this if I could see a setup that didn't look dodgy - is there anything you can link to I can have a look at? Appreciated, cheers 👍

A fan and filter setup would work best. You can sit it on a table and use it without ducting if need be, on a recycle mode if you will. Any smoke/air going through will get treated. Added bonus, all smoke/air will gravitate towards the filter, so none escapes out the door.

Thanks for replying, Harry 👍. Do you know if there's anything good that runs quietly? If you can recommend anything or link to something I'd really appreciate it. Cheers 👍

Look up carbon filters its just the same fan and filter you use in a grow,id suggest rhino carbon.filter there good and diff sizes,the smell sticks to the carbon and they do work mate

Cheers James 👍 Others have recommended Rhino products too. They're a bit pricey for me atm but it looks like they're the way to go. Thanks 👍

Not an expert on this subject but I would suggest getting a medical prescription, not for the access to flower etc but more just as some form of protection from draconian council policies. Looks quite bad on them evicting someone who has a legitimate medical reason to use

There are things you can try but nothing smells more than a joint unfortunately. You could try a sploofy, or get a fan and cover it with those scented dry cleaner sheets, or a combo. Better yet might be to consider using you favourite weed in some brownies. But I agree with nesto that if you have some kind of medical note/ prescription that might cover you. Otherwise pray for windy rainy nights where you can smoke it out of your window. I moved to vaping a while back, ULC and dr Terpy are good for distillate, and people who vape swear by live resin vapes, they cost a little more but the high on those is supposedly closer to a joint high, try sensi-mart for that perhaps, people love their live resin stuff. One day I will try this myself no doubt

In my experience, if you're smoking inside regularly somebody is bound to complain sooner or later. You'd be better off switching to dry herb vaping, what one did you buy? I could never get into it until I bought a high-end vape, took a week or so to get used to it but since then I haven't smoked in years. Far, far stealthier.

As others have said. Best solution is what growers do and suck the air through a carbon filter.

Rhino make great filters. You’ll need a fan and filter that can handle the volume of air in the room.

Looking at Rhino products now. Thanks for naming a company 👍

carbon filter and fan , you can get fans that are voltage controlled so it will be more quiet, i run a mini 6inch in my smoke room, was better with the larger one but next door is a weed farm so i can slack off

Second this.

Plug in ozone generator left on timer near front door is a great last line of protection. Yes,I know they aren’t great for your health,but so is being homeless.

I’m suprised how few people are aware of these bits of kit.
You can even get them for your car.
They are super effective and start at £20.

I used to be in a very similar situation.

I bought an air purifyer and an activated carbon air filter, about £150 all in.

I can smoke a joint in my living room with both of these on and the smell is gone in half an hour and nobody outside knows any better

Moving it stressful as balls, so we completely understand where you are coming from. In my experience, so long as you aren't a neighbour from hell, most people probably won't care. I live in a shitty flat, and you are very much at the mercy of your immediate neighbours. You might find a single-dweller (who doesn't generally disturb the peace) gets a lot of leeway.

Besides, even if they did complain, the council likely has better things to worry about. I'm not saying the risk isn't there, but moreso that the gaps between 'neighbour disapproves', 'neighbour complains', and 'you get turfed out' are bigger than they seem.

The one thing that might tick them off is if you stink out the place. So, as already said here, odor absorbers/removers could give you some peace of mind.

So, smell reduction. Maybe block the bottom of the external flat door, and also the door of the room you smoke in to prevent random diffusion.

Currently I'm using a Levoit Core 300S air purifier and that thing is being worked ludicrously hard. Seems to work at minimising odor along with copious sprays of Febreeze (those cans don't last long!), but there's still a residual smell that you'd have to sort out if people who didn't like that smell called over.

The company that Chasin'Orange mentioned but couldn't remember is Stashic. Also available from them, and from other retailers than the ubiquitous one. The rucksack is very roomy, but I haven't tested it in the wild for its odor dampening qualities.

'Stashic' is the company I meant, thank you MightyRux 👍. I did also see versions without their logo on it that looked exactly the same so, with the Stashic, you might just be paying extra for their logo, I don't know. And I totally agree RE blocking the bottom of doors 👍.

When I used to smoke js the smoke buddy made a big difference

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Smoke-Buddy-0159-WHT-Personal-smokebuddy/dp/B00W7WRDFO/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?adgrpid=118548206140&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WakUZljUxFx2iwK5OAi2d3nFuRkiYWZmEbVZ4a5vYzoULrubUqppg2ZXxkmMsP64sLVM7Uuf4i-fxB15d_rjKbawOECxbf4ePMQqOt90F1mpapZ0mc4WfAWYnqisGvCMUjxsnGi4s-v9jPXPGmFTBEAMiBGaCdQMcjTzxmaPwpSECi-_Uyxys73hglEtjH9nvisMA1TFAefa4xwr_ZkAcw.OCC82Zee0fQTD57ADFy5UakF8McrWK7b7qEP5aVBRGU&dib_tag=se&hvadid=593715444196&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9045819&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=2404179352707085790&hvtargid=kwd-302014556158&hydadcr=26198_2651726&keywords=smoke+buddy&qid=1711112961&sr=8-6

Good recommendation with the Smoke Buddy as a quick fix
Just be prepared for the yellow nicotine stain around your lips after a long session 😮‍💨
I’ll add, my neighbours hate me .. even more so when summer arrives ☀️ 😂 good luck🍻

Hi, is the shop closed again? No items available for purchase, are you still doing the distillate/terps syringes?

Hey - I sent you a message about my order this morning (30/04). Is it all good still? No response yet, and it's not clear from your post above

Think spirit modulal vapes are ok but other 2 have to go on society

Yea at a week dose don’t want to be getting bro in trouble

Check out DR.TERPY or Candian Imports, they both make good carts

Is Dr Terpy still about? Can't find any products for sale

✌️

Cheers, had loads from Terpy before, just couldn't find his page for some reason

Still about just not on the wall. Have to site search or topics to find him

I would recommend sayno2drugs. These are direct from the states and are excellent quality.

Dr. Extracts - very clean carts, worth the little extra in price

There's been a few synthetic carts going around, so be careful, especially with the cheaper offerings

These from Dr. Extracts are solid

GSC and Zkittlez 🔥

Dr Terpy all day long and his sister page also has 50:50 live resin carts 👌

Hey im importing Kilo cartridges. Extract from California, they are made in Spain.
4 different strains. This is Gelatto 33 but I do also have other 3 (Birthday Cake, Do-Si-Do and Watermelon Skittlez)

I'd say look up doctor extracts. I've ordered from him a fair few times, very good quality.

I've tried several vendors on here selling cheap ready to go ones that were "meh" but got the job done. On the other end I've sampled carts from vendors that market their carts as "premium" and whilst the product is generally good, it's as expensive as fuck and imho not worth for what you're getting at maybe double the price.

Never had a single issue ordering with doctor extracts and always got my items, and every single cart has been absolutely spot on in terms of potency and flavour profiles

I think I might give him a go, off topic question but the prices are in dollars is the price converted from bitcoin to gbp reflected?

I'm assuming you're a UK buyer correct? If so it will convert to GDP when you go to pay and will tell you how much you need to send. So for example I think their carts are $49 but you'll actually pay £39

Yeah thought so thanks, should I shoot him a message before I order or just buy?

Wouldn't hurt to send a quick message first to break the ice I guess, maybe ask any questions about the carts you want to know about etc.

Justweed had some super nice distillate carts - think they have a few left still.

Dr TERPY & canadian imports are other carts i've tried and enjoyed!

Hello,
We have cartridges made with BHO extract that increases the flavor and cut the need to add artificial terpenes for flavor
Have a nice one,
GH

Might just do that for future reference incase I get this problem. Basicly alternative to receive code through the authenticator than sms. Pretty sweet man cheers

I’d do it; it was a nightmare to deal with. SMS texts are in general

yeah i know but i had an error with changing phonenumbers entered a different one perfectly and had to hitup coinbase yet again with a screenshot.. didn't do shit lol

ended up getting cryptopay the auth would most likely solve the issue but cba to be waiting for their next fuckup to be honest.

Ok I have had this exact thing, but not with crypto sites. Started happening with PayPal, and then chat GPT. Also fine for others. Really fucking weird. I dug into it with my phone provider and they confirmed that my phone registered recieving it, but didn't show it at all. The only solution I had was there are loads of free online numbers you can use for verification, where the code goes to a public inbox. Didn't work with chat gpt as every number had been web scrapped, had to use my mums for that one 😂

Yeah sometimes they use a service that sends out the code in SMS form but the service they use to send out the SMS texts can take days even or not even land to phone. So yeh can become a huge annoyance. but also good to know they can delay even weeks to come to phone Sometimes it's rapid. Basically just comes down to the SMS service they use.
