I just wanted to tell you guys thank you! Got my gear today and I really appreciate that freebie. I was actually looking at that pack so now I can try it first. The stickers are awesome. Your box is amazing. Didn’t know you guys have auctions also I told my dispensary about a year ago to send everyone to you guys. Hopefully they have been because they ask me where people can get seeds and I told them you guys. That was Beyond Hello the goose Lake Road location in Sauget, Illinois. Also, thank you for the pineapple high chew! Love it all! Thank you so much!

I love how you guys packed the discrete box full of extra goodies and took the extra time to make the packaging so nice.
