Organic is exactly what it would be for everything else, all natural, entirely. Before placing an order with any place I recommend asking a series of questions. You need to make sure that they are the right kind, make sure they don't have any pesticides on them, make sure they were dried naturally - not chemically or in a kiln, etc. etc. Once you know those things definitively, you should be alright. Oh, and those look good to me as well. Usually the black or brown spots are dried alkaloid spots, either oozed out and dried on the outside, or damaged and dried inside the walls of the plant. Have a good one. BE SAFE!!! Remember, these are SERIOUS and not to be played with. You can always have more later, but you can't really remove some from the equation once it's in play.
