Sky High Exotics - Death Bubba

1 by Ketchup Chips
MOM Name Sky High Exotics

Overall rating out of 10: 6.5.

Sign Up: 9/10. Easy, standard.

Ordering & Pricing: 5/10. I was interested in one of the "strains for less" and asked for a reco, and while they provided one, they weren't very detailed at all. The Death Bubba I bought was $140 plus $15 shipping. I find that all of their premium strains are WAY overpriced.

Communication: 9/10. Responsive and polite.

Packaging: 10/10. Vac sealed and nice looking, but this doesn't move the needle at all for me.

Products / Photos: 6/10
Death Bubba Oz. The smell is nice - distinct Bubba, smells a bit like Pink kush too. Nice flavor in the vape, and the potency is good, but it's ALL popcorn buds. My photo with the mason jar lid shows the BIGGEST bud i received as well as the "average size" in the batch (0.3-0.5). I also took a photo of the biggest bud with the flash on, zoomed in. I usually wouldn't complain about this, but some of it is borderline shake, and I only received 3 buds that were more than a gram. That's ridiculous when you order an ounce. I think it's not acceptable for a MOM in 2019 to not label the product as such. After thinking about it a bit more critically (perhaps I'm just in a bad mood about the popcorn buds), I should mention that the bud trim is a but choppy too.

Incentive for Customers: Free branded rolling papers, I guess?

Incentive for Review: I told them I was reviewing, but they didn't offer anything except a 1g sample of their OG Kush (which is just meh).


Notes: I've ordered from a half dozen Moms and this one was the biggest letdown. They offered me a $10 credit on my next order, but I don't know if I will take them up on the offer because I paid $140 for this ounce and it shouldn't be more than $100. So a $10 credit dorsnt really make me happier.

I have tried premium designer strains (albeit not from here), but cannot stomach paying approx double the price. It's not my idea of "you get what you pay for": I consider it "when you tell somebody you don't care about the price, you get gouged".

We have different opinions, I guess

Anyhow, far better ounces for 140 out there. Not impressed with Sky high Exotics at all.

It is misleading to your readers to suggest that SHE's premium strains are over-priced when you have not tried them. Spend some time asking people here, I guarantee you everyone will tell you that the $250ozs from reliable MOMs are far better than any $140 death bubba.. You have yourself to blame for cheaping out. Don't believe me? Buy the good shit, there will be no more debate.

I don't have experience with SHE, but the big issue with weed quality is that nobody wants to pay those 250$+ OZ, but when you stop to look at it, nobody is selling those 250$+ OZ for cheaper. So if you want that product, you pay for it.. if not, well you smoke crap shit. Not everyone has the money for Champagne, but it doesn't make sparkling 12$ bottles any closer to being Champagne, if you know what I mean. Is Champagne worth 10x more? Probably not.. Unless you want to drink Champagne... Then there are no alternatives, are there?

Re-reading my review I could see how it could confuse the reader, that's fair. Not intentional.

However, what's your point? My review was on the Death Bubba that I bought, and I stand by every word. I was just trying to say in my review that I do not believe that the premium strains are worth the money: that's my perspective, and you have a different opinion. Fine. Doesn't really change much.

Right, but I'm interested in finding the best "middle ground" between Champagne and Coors. It's a reason I use this review board to help me make choices. Which makes it kinda pointless when people jump on and say "have the champagne, it's much better", because that's not what I'm looking for.

My point was always, "you get what you pay for." Anything less than $150/oz IMO is a gamble as far as quality is concerned. You want quality assurance, buy at a pricepoint where it is more of guarantee. No MOM is gonna listen to your popcorn gripe at $140 pricepoint... They know those ounces suck, its why they sold it to you for relatively cheap..

Honestly, I find your comments to be generally pointless, and I don't think I'll be reading or replying to them in the future.

I posted my review of the strain I bought. I absolutely stand by it. If you don't like it, that's your perspective, and I really don't care. I hope my review was helpful for other consumers like me: those looking for the best possible intersection of quality and price.

Your review was pointless.. Bud looks fine, popcorn size is hardly a gripe at $140, you just needed a reason to complain. Probably a theme in your life.

I also like to feed in the bottom and find those gems hiding behind bad trim or not so great bud structures..etc, as cosmetics mean shit to many,potency is number 1 since healthy should never be an issue

Thanx for your review KC, even though I've bought a few times here but have decided elsewhere for flowers,I only grab my shake/trims at SHE now

If you think the only place/price you're finding quads is online at $250+/oz you're crazy.
Right?

Not to mention the fact that the biggest challenge in this community is that people use it, but don't always necessarily contribute their own reviews/feedback. Here I have decided to "give back" and post honestly about my experiences with a particular MOM, only to have somebody cherrypick a detail to accuse me of being disingenuous to the broader community, then proceed to mock my contribution. Where I'm from, I believe the expression is, "what a DICK".

Anyhow, thanks for the support.

By quads, do you mean weed that a MOM arbitrarily labeled as AAAA because it was the best AA/AAA- they could get or do you mean actual true quads? Cause there is a valley between those... A 75$ per oz valley.

Name me a place that has true quads under 250$ reliably. I sure as hell can't. You can get lucky sometimes... But reliably? Even the craft growers aren't too reliable.

My guess is neither of these dudes has ever even SEEN, let alone smoked, a proper quad.

You have got to be the most hostile and abrasive stoner that I've ever run into.

If being a jerk to people on the internet gives you pleasure, I feel sorry for you. At least you seem to be self-medicating to ease that inner pain, but I suggest speaking with a professional, it could be helpful. Good luck with finding happiness in your life.

You're right that it's going to be impossible to find a MOM reliably supplying top quality for lower prices, and that more often than not you get what you pay for.
You can find it from time to time, but to find a MOM consistently selling top shelf under $200/oz is not an easy task.

With that said, I've definitely found top shelf for 180 and below online in the past, which usually sells out extremely fast, and some of the best stuff I've ever smoked has come from local plugs here in Quebec, that definitely aren't trying to charge me 250 for a zip.

That was literally my argument from the get go, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Is there an echo in here? Way to agree with the ex-mod while earlier chucking me under the bus for making the same argument. Jackass.

When coastal was selling for $120 a can... that was the only time I saw a listed quad under 250.

Certain strains for hsp can be considered AAAA-.. with their sales it brings it to under $200
