I have read comments online, people thinking that CBD is synonymous with medical (and anything with decent amounts of THC must be solely recreational

).
So maybe he wasn't trying to screw you, just didn't understand what you meant?
If you have a high THC tolerance, try taking a day or two off and the mid-grade might seem considerably better.
Either way, that sucks. I started to dislike CBD, it was actually causing me a feeling of restlessness and dysphoria.
I don't mind CBD, though, it definitely has it's uses. I just don't think it's worth all that much, especially compared to top-shelf flower. The sublingual tinctures/drops are really effective anxiolytics, but that might be more of a placebo effect than anything... you know, giving you the taste and somewhat eliminating any cravings for weed. I've found that they can be physically relaxing too, but
that might just be a side effect of it's anti-anxiety properties.
With this dude, he knows damn well what "medical" implies around here-- hell, he's the one that got me started on the term for primo weed. Granted, though, you're right and I made that connection earlier myself, but to think that it was intentional for the price that was paid is a direct insult on several levels. I don't run a cartel here, lol, just a personal user. These types of things I normally take as a loss and do everything in my power to prevent it from happening again, while letting my source know every step I take. We're still friends, I'm just not to be considered a customer anymore. He even offered some type of exchange but by that point I had already busted the bag and started smoking, and I really don't feel like that's how the game should be played anyways.
If you offer a certain product to a friend and longtime, trusted customer, you should be upfront about it the whole way through. I knew exactly what I was getting with the reggie from his word alone and the price was too good to pass up, but as far as medical/loud/gas/good weed goes, I've typically used to the more popular strains (nationwide) like Girl Scout Cookie, Cherry Pie, Sour Diesel and Trainwreck, Blue Dream a while back, and a lot of kush variants. Often they come sealed in the retail packaging from other states, labels and all.
Best case scenario is my guy literally just didn't double-check what he middleman'd for me before he came to drop shit off-- and even then, that's kind of a no-no with the prices and history involved. It's not the shittiest thing in the world but it's just not done. Worst case scenario is everything was intentional and he hoped I wouldn't notice or didn't care one way or the other. I was leaning away from the worst case, though, because I had talked to him, gotten a plausible reasoning, and then I offered to bring some of both batches this weekend so we could kick it, burn and see if I was trippin' or not. Everything honestly seemed on the up-and-up, until last night when I found out he went to Vegas on Wednesday.
It's all good, though. I'm not broke by any means, it just set back my budgeting and savings plans. I'll get it sorted by the time the weekends out, no doubt. Like I said, I still consider him a friend but he was already one of the fallbacks when my main buddy's business ground to a halt. There were plenty of people in the area waiting like vultures to corner the local market, and they're all trying pretty hard. I just like to stick with one person for as long as I can.... idk, I'm a paranoid guy, for real.
**EDITADDITION
Oh, and you're right about the tolerance. Right before making this latest wall of text, I had just come in from takin' an early morning walk around the lake with what had to've been a 1.5g-2g cone of just what I've been calling the CBD bud. I'm high, not gonna lie. HOWEVER, I also ate .5mg alprazolam right before I stepped out, so....
