SoCal Co-Op - The Syndicate Woodland Hills

The atmosphere of this shop is very unique. I loved the layout of the store and they had prices clearly marked on everything, making decisions a wee bit easier. And they have good-to-okay prices, some great deals but the products they recommend are definitely sub-par. On my 1st visit, I took advantage of a recommended special on a vape cartridge and resin sauce and the vape cart tasted off. It tasted unnatural. I did not like it at all.
But I did try them again, they had good specials, lol.
I did tell my budtender of my experience and displeasure from my last purchase. They recommended another special on vape cartridge (different manufacturer) and had the same issue ~ the "flavor" tasted synthetic or unlike any terpene I've ever smelled, tasted or smoked. Ever. In almost 40 yrs. And then something kind of unusual, I'm an artist and I'm currently working on a project and will be using the packaging of cannabis products I've collected over years and from many different dispensaries as part of the project. As we talked about this the cashier scraped off the lab result stickers from my two purchases. Kind of discreetly, but still right in front of me. What a strange thing to do, right?
With the very real threat of death from untested, unlicensed or black market vape cartridges, I am not taking chances. It isn't worth it. No deal is that good.
