super easy, same as these forums pretty much
Ordering & Pricing:
9/10
Ordering is very easy threw EMT. Pricing ranges from very good to fair. at least 50% of their store is always at a very good price while the other half will be at a fair you get what you pay for price. I have yet to find anything form them that i felt i over payed for.
Communication:
10/10
The exclusive bud team's communication is top tier in the mom world. They have a live chat option on their site during business hours, as well as a very active e-mail team. Both times i used this mom i definitely put both these options threw a stress test
For this order of a 1/4lb in particular we exchanged over 50 e-mails of me expressing various concerns, (all of witch were answered and dealt with masterfully), swapped my order a few times on them, (even tried to swap it last 8 hours after payment was sent) and every time i swapped they were very accommodating. I don;t recommend doing this on your orders i just wanted to stress test their customer service line Exclusive Bud is more the capable then dealing with any and all types of customers with any problems that may occur very fairly for both parties.
Packaging:

This will get long as i have 7 strains this order
Wedding Cake: 4/5
This strain is perfect for beginner smokers. It has a very smooth pull with a sweet almost fruity taste. The effects are also on the light side so this is great for beginners as well as daytime use. The buds all looked great and fresh and smelled delicious. were cured and trimmed nicely,
Super Silver Haze: 4/5
This strain definitely falls under don;t judge a book by it's cover. At first glance and smell i was not expecting great things. But this strain does come from the 90's and as such has aged over the years. It doesn't have any of the fancy new genetics to boost sweet smells and flavors, and the buds don't look like mini art projects. That being said when u smoke this, if you have every smoked in the 90's, you get hit with that old school high grade grass taste you will surely remember. As such you will be brought back to those days of happy laughy fun time bud. I'd recommend this to people looking for a blast from the past.
Snoop Dog Dream: 5/5
I was caught off guard with this strain to be honest. I mean it's named snopp dogs dream doesn't sound like a main stream bud more like smothing your buddy at high school would claim he has trying to boost up his swag weed. That is not the case here. First off these buds are fresh bright green and a cured and trimmed perfectly. The smoke is smooth with a very small hint of the blue dream flavor many of us will recognize. The effects were an interesting mix as you would expect from crossing blue dream and master kush. You start your trip off with a nice boosted uplifting high, witch is then followed by a nice smooth slide down into a comfort zone and/or slumber. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking for good bud, beginner and expert friendly
Gorilla Glue #4: 3/5
To be fair this strain was on a sale and i was told it was running low and recommended to try another strain instead. I ended up with the bottom or near bottom of the supply this lead to much smaller buds then i expect and normally get from exclusive buds. The buds were also on the older side also not a normal exclusive bud standard. But older doesn't mean bad. Smoking these i was hit with a nice mellow relaxing experience. Sadly not the couching locking "glue" experience i normal experience with GG4 but more of a mellow daytime weed.

Purple Space Cookies: 5/5
This was another Home run of the order. The buds are super fresh bright darker green. were cured and trimmed perfectly. Smell amazing and are sooooooo sticky. These buds will stick to your finger tips. PSC is a hybrid of Girl Scout cookies and an unknown strain in the purple family. So as such u are left with a amazing balance of a lighter daytime experience with a perfect body effects for pain relief. The flavor was nice with a very small berry hint. Would definitely buy this strain again.
Platinum Bubba Kush: 4/5
This would have been a 5/5 strain but i did find 2 seeds in the 7g i got. Out of the whole 1/4lb only 2 seeds though is amazing! The buds sport the classic indica look, smell, and taste you would expect from a kush strain. The experience is best described as slowly counting sleep to help u fall asleep. This is not a daytime weed. You can smoke it and fight through the drowsy effects but why when u can just enjoy this beautiful sedative. Wouldn't recommend this to beginner smokers.
Shark Bite: 5/5
Another Surprise for me was this strain. The buds are bright green with red dots throughout. Smells of sweet smooth grass. Cured and trimmed perfectly we are left with light fluffy buds. The smoke was smooth and tasted sweet with a very small hit of citrus. The experience left me in a very happy place with very little fatigue. This is great for parties or just want to take a break and have a few giggles.
Incentive for Customers:
During this order was a HUGE boxing week sale witch had a few incentives. I cashed in on the highest one that was a free oz ($150 value) if you bought 3 oz. As well as rotating promotions they off reward points per purchases that can be used on future orders at a very copulative reward rate.
Incentive for Review:
I got nothing as an incentive for this review. However they did custom fit the free oz i got from the boxing week sale to include 4 strains at 7g each
Notes:
Although i didn't receive a pre roll, any free samples, or boveda packs for larger orders as the exclusive bud team advertises i did still get a free oz thanks to the boxing week sale so a cut back on other freebies is understandable. The customer service team is very helpful and will go above and beyond the average mom to help you find the right fit for your needs. I'm definitely going to shop again when i smoke all these great buds and highly recommend giving them a try. My personal favorite strains so far from them would be. Blue Dream, Girl Scout Cookies, Snoop dog Dream, Purple Space Cookies, Shark Bite.
