prices and opinions

I'm starting this post because I'm deciding on picking up a quarter between 120-140 in the Boston area soon. I'm using a new hook up so this is going to be chance on my part none the less, but my question is: What is anyones experience with Boston(or anywhere) prices relative to amounts? and would you chance it?
I'm getting this hook up through a trusted friend, so I'm not to worried about getting completely ripped off but there is always that chance. And it was described to me as, and I quote, "FUCKING AMAZING". That, in itself, got me excited. LAWL. but I would still like to hear others opinions/advice, because 120-140/quarter is pretty steep form my norm, so of course I'm expecting to beat my usual.

(Normally I pay 80 a quarter, and imo its great. The change, well, sometimes people are flaky. The most I've spent on herb was 220 for an oz. of "KB", and in overall quality(denseness of the buds/zero seeds/bud to stem ratio/freshness) was the best I've had.)

I have family still in Boston who smoke and that is steep $$.
Let us know what you think after you do the deal, please.

Prices are much lower in Western MA. Any decent sized city along the I-91 corridor (Springfield, Holyoke, Northampton, Greenfield) sees a respectable variety of buds and the prices aren't so much a pain in the wallet as out East. Solid Canadian outdoor 'pine tree Nooks' can be found for $200-250 a zip. I very highly recommend them. They aren't headies, but it's a VERY good deal for the quality.

I'll keep ya posted. I'm heading back into Boston in a couple days which is when I'll be hooked up. I think I'm going to chance it. I value my friends opinion whose helping me out.

ya, bud usually runs around $10/g in my parts. My parts being further south along 495 close to RI. I usually dont see any variety, its usually just reg buds or headies (headies usually run 65 an 1/8th).
