Hey All,
Long time listener, 1st time caller.
I received my ATP a week before the new MMPR rules took place. (March 2014)
Mettrum was one of the only LP's that had product, they were in Ontario and their website was ok. Kind of excited about the "Mettrum Spectrum", have my eyes set on a couple of Reds.
Spoke to Ashley several times setting up the paperwork, waiting to hear from HC, etc.
1st order. Red#3 was the winner.....Missed the morning shipping cut off, but still product arrived in 2 days.
Buds looked nicely trimmed and dried. A bit fluffy and a distinct lack of crystals. Off putting smell when I opened the sealed white jumbo pill container. I was so excited to have just been handed 60 gm by the mail lady......the excitement faded quickly. I'd rate it a B-.
2nd order. The Red#3 is not available. No matter, Fetch hither the fromage de la Belle France! Mmmwah! So yeah, I ordered Red#1. This is the 1st time the lovely voice at Mettrum started to talk about 'reserve' for cancer patients.....something about it being great for compromised immune systems. Not my particular monkey, so I sighed, said I would continue to use my patience and ordered it. We are at this time talking about the upcoming Sativa. At this time it called Red#5 and the web says available in late April.
This bud is very loose/sparse. It does show some crystal which is promising. Nope. C at best. My dude tried some and was unimpressed too.
3rd order. Still don't have any product. More of the Red #1 unwillingly. More talk of zapped bud on the phone with the rep before ordering. Stupid stoner me is thinking this is a perk. No microwave for me please. Red #5 the much anticipated Sativa has slipped into late May on the website. One of the helpful voices at Mettrum has added a note to my file that I'm interested in it's arrival date and will keep me posted. I grab some local from my dude.
Local dude has rock hard nugs that smell like real pot again. This one bud was 3 times the weight of the thickest Mettrum so far. (Red#3) Good hit at the beginning, Indica couch glue. I did not get any fancy green tweezers from him (not pictured) or a huge plastic bottle. I did have to drive 20 min each way to meet him. He does not take a credit card........yet. So I'm back to Mettrum....
4th order. This one comes after some strife. After talking to a nervous Mettrum rep on Thursday, I find out that the Sativa Red #5 is now Red #2, and it's about to go on sale! The website will be updated on Friday and due to the changes in their ordering (the whole 30 days vs calendar month thing they did) I'm unable to order today. (Thursday 29th) But I'm told, we are open on Saturday! By this point, I've had enough of their on hold music. If I heard Ashley say one more time that they were experiencing higher than expected call volume, I was going to have to get into some BHO and fast. (Which I don't have and want to try btw....)
I call on Saturday and am on hold for 40 minutes. Caller number 9 in line down to 3 before hearing a dial tone....
Focus man! Sativa, 28%! I redial and wait another 40 minutes to get through and go on hold again while they grab my file. Sigh. Hello? Yes, I'm sorry, today is the 31st. You can't order until tomorrow. Sunday they are not open, so tomorrow meant Monday morning. Great, I love to sit at work on my cell phone for over an hour on Monday morning to order pain medication. I'm told that they lost power Monday morning, because when I did try, the number was not working/connecting at all. By the time I finally get through on Monday afternoon, yep.....sold out. Wow. I ordered what will be my last order. Red #4.
They now have a big green bottle, but the buds suck.
This was the best one out of a full 30 gm of dust and sparse/loose parts and pieces. Garbage. Another C at best.
I've submitted new paperwork to Delta-9 and am hopeful. I called them today and got voicemail. I've left my contact info and asked about product availability. The website today still talks about anticipated release in May......
Bye bye Mettrum. I won't miss your on hold music or your product!!
Respectfully,
