Well today I finally gave in and decided to pick up a half 8th from my usual dealer for the outragous price of $30. When he handed it to me it felt kinda small but I looked at it and was just like whatever this guys usually scales his stuff out so its probably straight. Then when I get home I scale it out on my digi and its only is 1.4! :mad: I'm soo upset, but I think I'll smoke it rather than take it back, and just tell him about how upset I am next time I talk to him. It'll probably be the last bud I see until I find a job in the new city I'm moving too, unless my friends get me some for my birthday.

n u were supposed ta get a 1.5? well that aint too bad, it cood b a rlly high 1.4 so rlly close to a 1.5. try puttin the bud on the scale, let it read it, then apply sum pressure down n see if she tinkerz up to a 1.5. i woodnt get 2 pissed over a point, cuz it prolly wuz juss an accident. if u were missin a .2 er .3 then id b askin fer my cash back n goin sumwhere else. i get 3 gz sumtimez 4 fer $30

What quality are we talking here? Shwag or diggity dank? Cuz I pay that price ($60 an eighth) for my dealer, but his stuff is usually really good.

I have posted the scale for conversion from 1/8s and 1/4s to grammes for those who need it.

1/8 of an ounce is exactly 3.5 grammes
1/4 = 7 grammes
1/2 = 14 grammes
1oz = 28 grammes

Thats it, simple really, so if somebody is selling you an 1/8th that weighs less than 3.5 you are being ripped off.

This is not opinion but FACT.

Therefore your half an eigth should have weighed in at 1.75 grammes

ive bought ounces that look like 2 ounces before but they were jus really fluffy an weighed out to an ounce. but dont tell ur dealer ur upset, that jus comes off as passive, tell him ur pissed an next time u want him to weigh it out. if he gets all bitchy bout it find urself another boy.

A half eigth around here is 1.75g (sorry for any confusion). So that is why I was a little upset at first, and usually I get 1.75 for $25 dollars so this one was a little more expensive. after the first bowl (0.3g) I realized it was some pretty good dank, and I'm going to a party tonight so i'm looking forward to that now.

u people got some shitty hook ups, my friend hooks me up with straight chronic $25 an 8th and $90 an ounce, so 1.4 for 30 sounds like u got fucked over pretty bad, u should bring a scale with u when u go to get a bag.

What I would like to know is who buys a half of a half quarter for 30 bucks? Thats the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. I get a half quarter for that if it's reallly good. If not its 25. Man you got so ripped
