    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah I don't know what the storage bowl means in practice, but I suspect it will be better as well. I can buy the character thing when we're talking patina on leather or brass or something, but I think in this case to me character might just be synonym for, "finish that doesn't age well" :)

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Its personal preference really. I'm torn on this as well. I think the matte will look better when it isn't spotless. The polished will develop microscratches and such. Certainly the polished looks a treat when at its best, though. The unknown is whether material will stick to the matte...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    I don't own the large bcg but I don't think that would change anything as I regularly put a single nug in my grinder. It doesn't change how they perform, so you could totally put a small amount in a large bcg and still get a consistent grind and the bcg smoothness @Oden. Some people like the...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah I can see threading it on not being well-received. It’s just like I said, I just like to be able to get at my kief without emptying my grinder. I usually grind in small amounts, so I’m happy just keeping it in my grinder until it’s empty—I don’t bother dumping it into an airtight...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    It must not have sold well. It seems like the industry kinda moves in trends and most people are beyond the four piece. I get the desire to have your kief just mixed in with every bowl, so it makes sense. It’s just like I said it seems to stick to the sides anyway making that never happen in...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    I'm way behind, but did they? I didn't realize that. I guess for me the appeal of the four piece is that because the kief is stuck in my grinder anyway it doesn't seem to me like I am keeping whatever I ground together. If the kief is in a separate section I can top a bowl with some whenever...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    BCG nails it in terms of minimal cleaning/getting stuck @gotbadvas. People seem to dig the 3 piece design, but I guess I'd still like to see GFL to a four piece. I just still end up with lots of bits of kief that fell off my flower in the collection chamber that sticks to the side of the...

    The Toad from Morwood

    Awesome to see a well-loved toad. The patina yours is developing is super rad. That last picture looks like a great vibe =)!

    The Angus Halogen Vape by YLL Vape

    While I support the message you and @davesmith re: being reasonable in your query, I guess I just didn’t see anything that wasn’t until folks got evasive answers. Re: the level of scrutiny I think it’s great that more people are asking about it. It should be the norm given we’re inhaling things...

    The Angus Halogen Vape by YLL Vape

    I’m glad to see others have called the tone of this out as a little ridiculous. You seem like a great guy @Texus but as consumers we are totally entitled to do some fact checking, especially considering how unregulated this industry is. A manufacturer who can’t handle the heat of that level of...

    Firewood Vaporizer

    That is too bad @losojos. Have others had this experience? Its kind of a bummer if I can only use the included charger. I just got the email for group F so I need to decide. The appeal of the 7 was the hybrid conduction/convection heater, but it sounds like that is not as present with the...

    Firewood Vaporizer

    Not trying to be negative towards the seller or fw, but given the reception hasn’t been as enthusiastic as the 7, listing a used vape for more than msrp might be a little optimistic. It’s not quite a collectible yet as it’s still in production!

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah, that is an interesting cut! Thanks for sharing @Abele Rizieri Ferrari and @Madri-Gal. I have generally had good experiences with the GFL team as well. I emailed them during their last fall sale as they were out of rose gold and I really wanted to be able to make a Mean Girls reference...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah I'd also love to see these hypothetical alternative cuts. I know they said they might do a limited edition of the ss with the patterned bottom on insta, but I haven't heard since. I don't open my instagram very often though.

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah, for sure. The discounts not applying at all would be an equally "fair" resolution in my head, but obviously I am not the final arbiter of fair in the universe. I guess from an armchair business strategy/excellent cx philosophy position to me it just seems like if your early adopters are...

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah, I guess for me above and beyond is, "Of course, to the customers who already pre-ordered we will honor this discount!". It just doesn't feel 100% ethical to me to have people pre-order a product and then offer it at a lower price.

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    Yeah like I said, all subjective. When I think of outstanding CX, its the teams that surprise me, not the ones that do the bare minimum. Like I'm not going to boycott GFL over this, but I'm also not going to point to this as an example of CX that I consider beyond the minimum.

    Brilliant Cut Grinder

    I guess it is subjective. I have had good experiences with their CX team as well, but I don't know that I think it is "outstanding" to not offer a deal like this to early adopters unless they give up their spot in line. Just give them the discount price and call it a holiday surprise imo. The...

    Looking for new portable can't get p80

    Yeah good point. I don’t do insta, so I didn’t watch it before, but it was quite a bit more than I expected from a session vape. I guess it’s a session vape in the same way the tm or p80 are? The heater is on, but it’s not like the mighty with a conduction oven roasting your herb whether you...

    Looking for new portable can't get p80

    Yeah, but how large of a bowl? Like if it can do what the mighty does in 10 sure, its more powerful than the mighty. But if I put that same bowl into e.g. a tinymight, anvil, or dc elev8r could I crush it in one hit? I'm not saying its not packing some punch or otherwise denigrating the...
