So... about the cost of a gram.

[YoureThirst]

I know it seems that most dank is $25 for just 1 gram... but damn man, doesnt that just seem like A LOT? Do you guys think 1 gram of some stinky stanky green is worth it instead of a lot more of just some mids?

I was just curious to see people's input on this. Is stuff like purp and kush really worth $25 for just one gram? Or is that just high for this area?

[michaelpeg]

thats a rip off and lots of people dont know that just because a plant is purple doesnt make it any stronger or anything it just looks nice, and if its really sticky it hasnt dried enough yet and also if it hasn't dried much yet that is why it is so stinky in most cases.

Depends where you live,around here ive seen em go for $20,but thats just silly because you can spend just a little more and get an 1/8th or something.

[rudy2010]

Most dispensaries have grams for about $15 to $17 for their best stuff. I have never seen a $20 gram. That seems really way too high.

I don't think this bro goes to a dispensary. If you ask a dealer for a gram of his best he's going to skyrocket the price to cover the cost of splitting it down that far.

I have brought up this very topic in the What is meant by "commercial" weed? (http://boards.cannabis.com/cannabis-com-lounge/166225-what-meant-commercial-weed.html) thread. It doesn't make sense to pay 10x more for 2x the potency.

About $125 a quarter here in oklahoma...I'd rather not smoke than smoke mexican brick that pedro took a piss on before he cut it down...best way is to grow your own and weasel around the system..

[McLuvin]

$25.00 a gram is just criminal. It is bullshit that they take advantage of peoples medical conditions.

Especially for those of us that cant grow for whatever reason.

[YoureThirst]

Yeah I hear you on that one. However, to be honest... the people in my area dont really use it for medical purposes lol.

ding ding!

the OP's best bet is to just go ahead and get an 8th or up. it's not worth just buying a gram. If you don't have enough money to ge at least a 1/8th, you should just get some good mids if you can. I personally would rather just get a half or ounce and just sit on it or if I can get that, I'll def not get any less than a 8th. Like the above poster said, some dealers live for the nickle and dime so they are going to bust your ass for the grams. Hell you can geta gram of coke for 45 dollars. ( not saying you should, just showing the comparison)

Mids I get 1.5 for $10. Exotics in NY is about $20 a gram of the real good. $25 someone is making a little extra buck.

[RelaxaBIT]

I have some trainwreck, and im in raleigh nc, and I get my nugs for anywhere between 90- and 120 a quarter. It all depends on the quality of course, but at worse it's still crystally and stinky.

I would never pay 25 a gram. this is exactly why the federal goverment needs to just legalize weed. Our government would be getting PAID, as well as lowering the cost for us, not allowing dealers to bang those in the head for outrageous prices. You know you have a problem when the dealers want to keep it illegal. Just like prohibition, making weed legal not only makes criminals out of everyday,good citizens, it also puts us in contact with dealers who are selling more than just weed, any they try to push it on you hard if they can.(y'all know what im talking about) I know im preaching to the choir, but I just had to get this out. Someone should be ashamed of themselves charging 25 dollars a gram with the way this economy is. Everyone should be allowed to grow 1 or 2 plants every harvest and then just pay your taxes on them and say fuck it. people would still buy from dealres because not everyone has a green thumb, not the time to grow, but it would bring the price down a lot!

[Ub3rB0ng]

90-120 a quarter? ouch thats even worse than 25 a gram. ive never paid over 80 for a quarter ever in my life.

[YoureThirst]

I think I will just stick to the mids... haha.

[apocolips31]

Some girl tried to charge me $25 for a G before.....I just laughed in her face, then got it for 20 lol.

[RelaxaBIT]

90-120 a quarter? ouch thats even worse than 25 a gram. ive never paid over 80 for a quarter ever in my life.

to be honest with you, when it's 90-100, that is actually cheaper than 20 dollars a gram when you do the math, and this bud is very good. Like, I paid 100 for my trainwreck. Usually when the bud is 120 is when it's dry or a big bust has happened. I'm 25 and have been an everday smoker since i was 19, and have come across mannnnnny dealers, and mannnnnnny bud, but the type of dro I get, I have NEVER seen anyone let it go for anything less than 90 a quarter, and that's if you're a friend. 45 an 8th - 90 a quarter is friend prices.

[Ub3rB0ng]

heh 40-50 1/8ths and 70-80 quarters are normal in Cali, friends or not.just how it is ;) :jointsmile:

well of course, you're in cali, th most of us aren't. I'm on the east coast. raleigh,Nc/Va beach, Va. we don't have dispensaries right around the corner

[michaelpeg]

In a weed rich place like cali I would think the price would be lower than that although it is cheaper than many others that have replied.

How much do the canadians here pay? I have never ever been charged more than $60 a quarter and I have access to jack herer, my fav tons of trichomes or black domina and I don't even know the dealer personally.

Can someone please post a picture of what mids look like compared to "dro" because looking at the crazy prices I have seen on here maybe I have been smoking mids all this time and not even known it.

[JohnnyZ]

Michael, our respective hookups must have the same grower dude! There's always black domina or nyc/sour diesel to choose from. Sometimes pineapple kush rolls into town, but that's only once in a blue moon.

I've always paid $60 for a quatch, $50 if its some leafy mids. Also the zoomies around this area are abundant and potent! Just saying.

Also, let's puff down one of this days bro!

[RelaxaBIT]

my buddy had jack herrer about a year or so ago and he told me it was soooo good. I missed out on that, I def want it again. I want to move to canado or something, id be afraid the canadians would want to kick my ass for moving to their country! haha im just kidding

[JohnnyZ]

Jack has to be one of my favorite tokes. It's such a nice uplifting high that leaves you clear minded, yet still in some other world. Yes fucking please.

this is what i love to hear. This is the exact high I love from good buds. If the bud is good enough, you almost get a little burst of relaxing energy that(like you said) keeps you clear minded yet in another world. I'm so jealous right now!
