This is why scalping should be made a crime

I live in the NWT and I’m trying to get my hands on a ps5 pro but obviously like many others it’s literally impossible. The closest I’ve been was when I saw my local Walmart had stock so I placed an online order, only for it to be cancelled right before my pickup time the next day. My best guess is that they sold the last one before checking what online orders they had to fulfill. I called my Walmart and Best Buy and they both told me they aren’t getting a restock anytime soon, so now my only option is to find it online. I’ve set up multiple restock alerts and was even present on the Amazon page for restocks but got beaten by scalper bots within seconds. I’m honestly just really pissed that these retailers just let these people get away so easily with scalping their products. It’s really unfair that these slimeball human beings can just get away with hoarding all the stock because they can’t get a real job. Anyways besides the rant, I’m really just considering giving in to one of these scalpers and paying $1500 for one because I know in the end I’ll just be happier if I get what I want even if I pay a bigger price.

Pineapple express from CanadaBudPost

So I ordered an ounce of Pineapple Express from CanadaBudPost, it arrived, I ground it up, put it in my bong, and light up. The issue started when I noticed it burned super slow, and I couldn’t even finish the bowl. It had a pretty not so good after taste, and the high wasn’t pleasant, and pretty uncomfortable. I’m a pretty new smoker, only started about 4 months ago and this is my first time ever buying online. I really wanted to give Pineapple Express a try as I loved the film and I’ve heard it’s actually a good strain and lives up to the hype. I did some research and found out maybe it wasn’t dried properly, so I left a bud out to dry for a few days, then I it ground up and tried it again. There might’ve been a slight difference? The high didn’t feel as uncomfortable as previous, but it still burned slow, and the ash was black and hard to keep burning. I dried lowering the amount I used and it just gave the same unpleasant high. Anyone have any experience with this strain from CanadaBudPost? Did I get a bad batch? I contacted CanadaBudPost already and they just ended up giving me a coupon for only a third of the cost and said they wouldn’t give me a refund. Felt like I kinda got scammed here. Added some photos if anyone could identify any issue with it. I did notice the buds felt spongy almost? I noticed that the bud I left out to dry felt more consistent with the stuff I get from the dispo so idk. I’d appreciate if anyone could let me know if they’ve had any similar experiences with CanadaBudPosts stuff. Just wanna know if I should toss it and take the loss or try something else. Thanks and bare with me as like I said, I only started smoking a few months ago 😅
