I was just wondering about the price medical marijuana. Is it more expencive than what you'd get off a dealer? Obviously its medical quality so youd probably happily pay a little extra.

Ive 'heard' that it is supposed to be cheaper due to the fact most medical marijuana is donated from the underground growing community !!

Dont hold me to that though !!

:yeahright:

lol...I think that is how it is supposed to be...but anytime money is involved...things can change!

I live in an area with local police that are happy to pull down their pants and touch their toes for the feds, so the co-ops are hard to find and often you have to drive long distances to get to them. I've only been to some in the desert area, and because there are maybe a handful that serve the desert as well as the Inland Empire region, none of them seem to even try to compete on their prices. $75 an 8th is all I have been paying, but as long as the quality is there I'm not concerned.

I've heard about some places in the LA/OC area that cap their prices at $45, but I have yet to try any of those places out yet, but it is obvious that when you get into an area with more co-ops, the price falls dramatically.

If the feds would stop wasting tax dollars on raiding these co-ops and pass a law allowing them, the prices would fall dramatically. I think if the government realized how much money they could make from taxing medical marijuana then they would be all over the idea, but right now they are too stubborn to realize that. (which is useful since our government submits to the all mighty dollar)

Nailhead - Are there even any co-ops left open here in the Inland Empire? I know there are delivery services but I thought they had got all the co-ops except for the ones in Palm Springs. Funny how the Feds don't bother the co-ops that serve the rich old Republicans.

I don't know of any in the IE that aren't delivery, and I don't think I'd ever try one of those....I'm not that lazy, I don't mind driving a little lol. I just wish more people that use cannabis for medical reasons would talk to their friends and family about it, because too many people are hush hush about it as if they should feel ashamed by it. But in reality, I know a lot of people would be surprised by how many friends/family members they have that are using cannabis in some way whether for recreation or medical uses.

I talked to a friend who's dad has cancer but doesn't want to try using cannabis because he is afraid of setting a bad example for his kids. It's really sad that somebody will die a more painful death simply because of lies from our own government that have given this great medicine a bad reputation.

Nailhead and Pharmacan,

Have either of you tried KGB meds? I have been thinking of calling them. I called Dankmeds and was shocked at the prices. Do either of you know of the other co-ops and if they are cheaper? Also, who has the best service? I would really appreciate any advice as I just recently got my mmic. Isn't it a bummer that there are no medical maijuana docs in the high desert either? My doc is in Orange county and the drive sux! I wish there was a co-op to visit instead of delivery as I would feel more comfortable with that.
Thank you! All the best,

I haven't tried any delivery services if that's what KGB is, I'll look them up, but I'm really not interested in delivery. I saw Dankmeds website and was turned off when I saw the pictures and the dude in sandals....I mean come on, at least dress professional for your website!! lol

I guess living in the high desert is worse than me because you really are far from any co-op, there is a site that was created to help people like you and me with legal medical marijuana cards who can find co-ops, but I can't give the name for this weed tracking .com site *cough cough* Try a few google searches, but it is very helpful and you might be able to find a place offering a good deal on larger amounts so you don't need to make the trip so frequently.

I haven't tried KGB. I bought from Dank meds once and their bud sucked - real light and airy like it was grown with insufficient lights/nutes. I hope this isn't against the rules, but here are links for two delivery services. I know the owners of both services and they both deal in high quality product.


M.M.Caregiver (http://www.mmcaregiver.com/)

Holistic Alternative (http://www.holisticalternative.org/)

Of course their prices are higher than in co-ops, but it's delivery. Their products are good and so are their weights.

If you like White Widow, tell Ken at MMCaregivers to put you the list for the buds he will have in 3-4 weeks. This bud is the real McCoy - pleasant, kinda perfumey taste; makes the room smell like you are burning incense instead of smoking pot... and, of course, potent as hell.

Nailhead and PharmaCan, Thank you so much for the help!

PharmaCan, It's so funny, I have been talking to Ken for the last week about his weed and clones. I like his prices a lot better than others. I just feel so weird doing this for the first time. I know I shouldn't be weirded out as there is nothing wrong with what I am doing. I bet I will feel more comfortable after the first time.

By the way PharmaCan...What's Ken like? I figure he is probably nice, but I just want to have an idea before I arrange to have him come over. Also, thanks for the heads up on dankmeds. Their prices are too high to not get me high! :jointsmile: I have been in so much pain today from the low potency of the plants I harvested too early. I am in need of some good pain medicine. I had to resort to the synthetic pain pills. I hate vicodin, would way rather go the natural way, so it will be nice to purchase some good medicine! :rasta:

Thanks again to both of you! All the best! W:stoned:

MMMM, white widow, one of my all time favs. When I used to go to Amsterdam a friend and I sampled a bit of everything and both decided that white widow from Free Adam was the best. I will definitely be looking forward to that. I will probably get some of his clones as well. The clones he has sound nice!

Hey Ken,

I am looking forward to doing business...errr...can I say business, with you soon. I am very shy and feel weird calling you up. I DID verify with you a week or so ago. So, when I get the guts I will call and order up! :D I am still concerned I live too far away...the high desert. By the way, don't believe the name, it is NOT that high of a desert!

Never mind...If you do decide to deliver to this area please let me know. We have nowhere decent to go up here. I bet it would be worth your while to deliver up here. Maybe you could set up appointments all in the same day or something? I know you said you would deliver to the other place one day a week. Maybe you could do something like that here? PLEASE!!!! All the best, :rasta: I would make it worth your time alone! lol

I would like to start off by saying its nothing personal. It's just not that great! Just my opinion. Me and my brother visit my older brother in san clemente every year.Southern california.And last year and this year the bud is terrible.Let me describe it to you:Looks great,has no smell even if you smash the bud up a little bit,has no taste,and the high is so mellow! And the prices are out of this world for that low of quality medical MJ or whatever it is.Ok here's the funny part when i go out there i always make fun of the locals about there herb.Just to see what they say ,like yea man this does suck. But they still always say it's soooo good and its not.I'm like what happened to the dank.And where are you guys from not here apparently.I still have my south side hook up thank god.Old buddy of mine that's been growing pretty much his whole life!(around 15 he started)36 now.His prices are still 50/100 and the medical MJ cant even touch his herb.Blows it away! So from experience I'd say i would'nt recomend it! But hey if you want to waste your money it's up to you.:twocents:

That's a pretty broad brush you're painting the MMJ industry with. Do you honestly think that your experience at one or two dispensaries is indicative of every dispensary in the state?

I was just wondering about the price medical marijuana. Is it more expencive than what you'd get off a dealer? Obviously its medical quality so youd probably happily pay a little extra.

This is directly from a local club

Shwaggy/Mid 1/8ths: 20-25$

Highs (Kush and better) 1/8ths: 30$

Price breaks at quads, half Oz, Oz.



Conclusion: This weed is always 100% pure, with no chance of being laced, and is dank dank dankity dank. Its more expensive, but once you start getting it alot, you never want to go back.


P.S. all of these prices are straight out of a club catalog

No offense but you have absolutaly no clue what you are talking about. Medical Marijuana is not the same at all the clubs, and each club sets their own price. Some have shit quality, some have nothing but the best, some have awesome prices, some charge a crap load.

As for prices, like I just said it depends what club you go to, closer to LA the prices come down because they have more competition, go further away to Bakersfield or the desert cities, expect to pay more. Most places don't dare go over $75 for an 8th, but I can see why places in Bakersfield could go higher since the clubs have just now been outlawed by the city.

If the feds would lay off prices would be much lower, but because the feds would rather people buy bud from dealers they are closing the shops down and keeping the drug dealers in business. Stupid morons didn't learn anything from alcohol prohibition, and now history just keeps on repeating itself...

Thank you Ken, I would just be grateful if you did come up this way. I would leave when up to you. I'm not pushy! :thumbsup: You just have the best clones and I would LOVE to get six, as my girls are almost done flowering and I need to get a new batch vegging in the next few weeks. I am patient though! I'm just grateful you are even thinking of coming up this way! I will check your site regularly for updates! Take care, WWW :jointsmile:

Had to add...If the time coincides with when the white widow is ready...that would be awesome too! :D Actually, all of your meds are tasty looking and would be great!

i also haven't shopped around; just went with the first delivery service i tried in orange county, CA; my guy is very good and i'm quite happy; i've had og-kush, master kush, and trainwreck from him and it's been very good bud

he has clones for $15 or $20 depending on the strain, delivers to my door, and is clearly a rather good fellow

a jelly-bean sized bit of weed is plenty for me to get comfortable and high

MajesticWhelk
10-09-2007, 04:34 PM
At the clubs I have gone to, all prices up to half-ounces or more are pretty much standard.

Now if you like to buy in bulk like me and save yourself some money, the clubs are not the place to go. Honestly, I think the weed you get outside the club (at least in my area) is just as good or better and it is most definitely cheaper.

I've only been to a few co-ops, and they were nothing but a small room with a glass counter with some samples of the strains they have. I wish the employees were more educated on the health aspect of marijuana, (which they should be). I'm not a weed expert, but I'd like to go into a place and say, "Hi, I have enter your disease here, what strain would be best for me?" But so far, I can't do that to the places I've been to. One guy wasn't even really sure which samples were indicas or sativas...now that is really bad!

I have read about some places that sounded like a fairytale, with smoke lounges and intelligent staff, that's what all co-ops should be!

Let us know your experience!

Ive been using dank meds for over a year.. they have the dank thats 4 sure. always have atleast 4 kinds sometimes up to 15, price is always the same 75 1/8 150 1/4 which is higher than the street, but the quality is un touchable. they have PRIMO buds, nothing less than what u see in the magazines. I called some of the other deliver serivces recently and was shocked by their unprofessionalism, high prices or lack of product. I Stand behind dank meds products and service. Never have I had a bad encounter with them. smoke on

I cannot believe what i am hearing in this thread!
I live in cali, and went to my first club yesterday.
For an eighth they are ranging between $45-55.

But for the price, the quality is outstanding. I bought hashplant, and ICE and a sativa
All 3 buds are the very best i would be lucky to find from an average dealer. They look identical to the pics of the same strains on the internet.
Definately great place for medicinal use mj:D
:rastasmoke:
nailhead: i cannot even believe there are staff so uneducated, the one i visited had an extremely friendly staff, recommending between the indicas and sativas and just a great selection too. I didnt think bad clubs existed, but i guess i will keep on the lookout.

The Meds at each dispensary will vary, and you need to plan to visit a couple to get what is right for your ailment. RULE OF THUMB: sativas for daily (light) relief of pain, indicas and indica-dominant strains for evening pain relief and insomnia.

DISCLAIMER: every person's body chemistry is different so you'll just have to try a couple of different strains and see what you respond to... not a bad thing to try, IMO.

If you are in the LA area there are a number of co-ops/dispensaries but be aware that your doctor cannot TELL you where to go for meds, only give you a rec (doctors recommendation). You need to find out the rest by going to CANorml or a similar site and search for Patients Clubs or Dispensaries.

There's a decent place in the Naples area of Long Beach (HSCC) where I picked up an OZ of organic sour diesel which was damn fine for 300 but overall the Valley has the best prices and selection... I could tell ya a site to find them but I'm new here and don't know the rules... ;)

Whatever you do be careful on the boards as they are public and LEO's are all over them

Yes.. When I go to Arcata I love the selection..Purple and Buba Cush one of my favs..The sweet after taste of Buba Cush..is awesome.. However..Tsnomi ..sounds great is wasnt for me..It wasnt great for my pain, I want to try the Cindy which I think is just Cinderella.. not sure. The buds look fan-fuckin-tasstic .. but not sure about the high on that one. I know Sour Diesal for me is the most potent when they have it.. best, stickiest, stinkiest shit around..HUMBOLDT CO. CO-OP is the best.. I have ran into, they have J-Bags they donate to the public..MWandF, of the popcorn and shake .. Its cool. Dicks Herbs in Redding, CA .. man sucks ass.

A lot of mis-information in this thread.

The herb isn't 'much' better than off the streets and it's usually just as expensive and most of the time more. Many times the dispensaries need to stock the shelves quickly so the vendors harvest as soon as possible, not a good thing. I can't tell you how many times you'll find $70 1/8ths that have been harvested too early...all about making the dollar. That's why it pays to grow your own, and if you live in a state with medical MJ then that is the preferred route regardless since you can grow legally per the state.

You'll never find any Kush strain for less than $55 1/8 at any So Cal clubs unless they have some sort of special (customer appreciation day, etc)...and that's up to the club entirely. The cheapest you'll find is ~$35-40 1/8 for mid-low grade once in a while, and that's usually just for left over 'combined' shake they want to get rid of. The average price for clubs in So Cal is $55-70 an eighth (some places in the OC charge $80 1/8) for anything descent (Kush strains, Haze strains, and Purple strains). I've been to MANY clubs and never seen any Kush strain for less that $55 1/8 unless it was shake.

I'll never complain as it beats waiting on your hook-up to come through if you're in between grows. This way I just walk in to the local dispensary and pick from a menu of 15+ different strains (some places have 25+), some even sell MJ concentrates such as Hash/Kief and most sell MJ cookies/brownies also. Once you find a place you like it's a one-stop trip and you never have to wait on anyone or hope your hook-up has product, it's just always there at your convenience. HTH

Silent smoker i dunno man. I saw some mighty good looking strains for $50. Sure there were no good ones under that, but at the club i went to all of it ranged from 50-60 per eighth.
And i guess you must have a great dealer, because compared to the couple dealers i can buy from, this stuff was much better. The same quality as when i visited holland. I do believe the club i went to was very top quality though.
I honestly didnt think they sold any bud that was harvested too early like you say. I dont see how they can afford to, when all there other weed is super good, they wont cut corners to get more. They already had shitloads just sitting around in the jars.

Although if your in so cal since theres soo many clubs down there i can see how. Where im at there is only 2 clubs within a block of eachother, and the next closest is hour or 2 drive away.

The clubs in SF I went to always charged $45-$50 for 1/8, but I never really bought an eigth, as I always bought an Oz or 2. I dunno what street prices are for an Oz.
What ARE street prices for an 1/8 in the SF bay area ?

I can get an 1/8 of high grade puick a name or flavor for $50, grams of purple urkle dark dark dank brown and black hashish for $30 a gram, killer kif for a can you believe it, $10 a gram. Those are "street" prices for around here

LOL - The guy is buying bud that he truly believes has no effect on him. Does it really matter what he's paying for it?

...and you've gotta wonder how many times a day he's calling Princess to complain that the bud isn't real. ...one can easily understand why a small surcharge might be added to his price.

Do you always know what strain you are getting? Do you have choices?

PharmaCan

Do you always know what strain you are getting? Do you have choices?

Yes and no. The grower tells the dispensary, "I've got nameyourstrain." and the dispensary has no real way of knowing if it's authentic nameyourstrain or not. If you're hell bent on a particular strain that you really like, good luck getting it. I really like Strawberry Cough, and you can find dank weed they're calling Strawberry Cough in almost any dispensary, but it's seldom the real thing. Excellent weed - just not real SC.

You should find a reputable dispensary or delvery sevice and stick with them. My friend with the delivery service in the Inland Empire (http://www.mmcaregiver.com/) grows and gets meds from other growers. Regardless of the source, he gives some of the meds to his testers and we test the meds for him and report back to him. - :D Yes I'm an mj tester. It's a tough job but ...you know the rest. - Anyhow, he's dead-ass serious about the testing and when he knows I'm going to try a sample, he'll call me several times and want to know the taste and if it's cured properly and the immediate effects and the lasting effects and if it works good on pain and so on. The point is, he can consult with the patients and give them a knowledgeable description of the meds he has available. That's why it's important to find a good delivery service, and not just some jerk-off out to make his fortune in a year or two.

Hey can't say enough about Ken and the delivery service in IE. It takes a hell of a lot of guts to do what he is doing, I hope that all will always be well for him. I highly recommend anyone in the area to give him a try, quality is there and prices are fair, especially once you factor in the drive time, gas ect....:thumbsup:

Was cheaper for me than street prices. I went to Venice last week and hooked up with some LSD x Purple Kush that has been keeping me higher than I have ever been in my 43 years of life. I can't remember the 1/8th price but I paid $480 for an ounce, that's $60 an 1/8th. I had Spinal Fusion last January and this is the first time I have been able to go without prescription pain and spasm medications i.e. Hydrocodone, Soma, and sleeping pills. The price might be a little steep but keeping all those prescription meds out of my liver is priceless.

I pay on average $75 an 8th at my place in the desert, only way of getting around the price is to go into LA but fuck that shit, the drive alone isn't worth saving $15. If Ron Paul gets into office prices will drop dramatically, otherwise we are pretty much stuck with these prices.

I was just wondering about the price medical marijuana. Is it more expencive than what you'd get off a dealer? Obviously its medical quality so youd probably happily pay a little extra.

This depends. I am a medical Marijuana buyer and I've gone to all sorts of different cannabis clubs in the bay area....from Santa Cruz all the way up to Frisco and Oaktown.....

Different clubs have diffrent prices. Just as they have different strains.

Certain clubs had low to midgrade stuff which can run as low as $150 oz, then I've seen the clubs with the really high grade exotic strains which can run up to $400+ oz.

I've seen 1/8's as low as $25 and as high as $70. (Out of all the clubs i've been to personally i've never seen an 1/8 priced over $70 with taxes included)

So it just really depends on what you;re looking for. The best thing about having your medical card is you get to choose what you want to smoke...

Please refrain from speaking as if your caregiver is your dealer, they are your caregiver or grower. They "provide" you with your medicine. Its illegal to talk about the purchase of marijuana.

I talked to a friend who's dad has cancer but doesn't want to try using cannabis because he is afraid of setting a bad example for his kids. It's really sad that somebody will die a more painful death simply because of lies from our own government that have given this great medicine a bad reputation.
Wo man, that's raw :(

my friend gets his stuff there and he sells it for 40-50 an eigth and i know hes making profit, but maybe its because he buys in bulk

incriminating homies is not cool:thumbsup: hopefully they take his card away because its people like him that can fuck it up for all of us. usually buying in bulks in the cannabis club is the same shit if you're buying grams or eights, they dont give crazy price breaks because of people like your homie. hes either not making any profit at all or hes just saying its from the club, do you ever think of that?

i am from ohio, and can get shit from southern cali for $250 an ounce. and thats dank shit, like snow cap, purps, kush ect.

and can also get real nice grade mids for $700 a pound. which translates to around $30 an ounce.

to get good shit at a good price just really depends on who you know.

the mids that come around ohio are shit, and i am thankful for my cali friends :)

:DI agree, but my question is why are they calling a dispensary a co op? I know of a person that grows on their land a co op and all the card holder/rec grow together on someone's else land. Can't anyone grow their own? Or find someone that will? Instead of paying highly for herb? Federal law, is a big issue but if your able to, grow... why not. There are many diffrent ways of doing so, and books to help get you started, and some groups that you can meet others whom will be willing to help you get started by talking about it. Sb420/Prop215 state laws, all saids you can grow for yourself...as long as your a qualified patient with a rec/card (ca nationwide card)check online on it and read it for yourself.... anyway i would think so...especially if you dont want to travel the distance to a dispensary and pay high prices for yur meds... grow it yourself...lol:D

Thank you Ken, I would just be grateful if you did come up this way. I would leave when up to you. I'm not pushy! :thumbsup: You just have the best clones and I would LOVE to get six, as my girls are almost done flowering and I need to get a new batch vegging in the next few weeks. I am patient though! I'm just grateful you are even thinking of coming up this way! I will check your site regularly for updates! Take care, WWW :jointsmile:

Had to add...If the time coincides with when the white widow is ready...that would be awesome too! :D Actually, all of your meds are tasty looking and would be great!
I live in the High Desert and am going to grow. Wonder if we can get a small group for MMJ and have our own set-up together? IS THAT A POSSIBILITY AND is this legal on this site? If not, sorry I broke a rule! I did not go to Catholic School and do not want to bend rules, etc. Just want to get a true Co-op where we do not sell, just help each other. Of course, the people that supply Co-op's may not be happy, so this may be a troubled thread. But, cost is a major factor if you are so disabled that you can't afford these prices and need help to grow. I am not sure I am up to it physically, but I need to do something! thanks :hippy:

[quote=Weedywildwoman]Nailhead and Pharmacan,

Have either of you tried KGB meds? I have been thinking of calling them. I called Dankmeds and was shocked at the prices. Do either of you know of the other co-ops and if they are cheaper? Also, who has the best service? I would really appreciate any advice as I just recently got my mmic. Isn't it a bummer that there are no medical maijuana docs in the high desert either? My doc is in Orange county and the drive sux! I wish there was a co-op to visit instead of delivery as I would feel more comfortable with that.
Thank you! All the best,
WWW :rasta:[/QUOT

Don't kno where you are, but there is a doc in Riverside and Palmdale! Maybe closer than OC. Riverside, for sure! Found on Ca Norml!
Supply, Co-op vs. Disp: I.E. has a problem with supply. Just read someone knows of over 6 in I.E.: Finding them in Hi Desert is not easy, just read that someone is starting a delivery, by appt. on certain days only!
Lack of suppliers-wonder if it has to do with the reputation of the Hi Desert and prev. illegal ops over many decades! Hopefully, this is going to change! And in due time, I expect we will have a Co-op owned and run by the growers and users, exclusive to them only: LIke the food Co-ops that grow, share costs and split the product! I have seen it work in Eureka (food Co-ops)! Of course, there will be a lot of legal stuff to set into play to prevent losing it all to police! Do you have any new info to add to this?
