Is it worth buying an ounce?

Never got or seen an ounce of weed, ever in my life... Always gotten small bags now and again.

How big does an actual ounce of marijuana look like? And is it worth spending AUS$270 on it or going halves with a mate?

an ounce is usually worth it but make sure you get the right amount. Also, going halves with a mate would be good cause its the same price/amount of weed. So you get the ''buy in bulk'' price with a smaller amount of weed.


yay...half K'th post..

ounces are ideal for me. i can get an ounce of good mids for $100 and i know people that buy 8ths for $30. sell half of it for 30 dollars an 8th, BOOM i just got paid 20 dollars for owning a free half. yeah I'd say ounces are worth it.

Yeah i think it is. The price is a bit tight though. Around here its $300 an ounce..... but i got a friend in melbourne who can get it for me for $190 an ounce so its cool.

But yeah, having a whole lot of weed is cool..... but if you are looking to save the money.... it doesnt always work.

When i buy in bulk i usually end up always rolling phat as joints and cooking it. So i go through it pretty quick. and then i wish i conserved it.

You know what i mean lmao.

i bought an oz before..and it was worth it.. the key to it tho is to sell it ..and smoke with your friends..and make them throw down on the weed so you make all th emoney back exapt for what you smoked..and you can uy another one and such

The real question is -

Is it worth buying less than an ounce? ;)

An ounce? Right about that would be more than worth it :D.

If your dealers are fair to you, an ounce, and no less than half oucnes are ideal for buying. A fair dealer should lower the cost of the overall weight when buying in bigger quantities, but in some cases, some dealers won't do that.

You see, some charge lets say $40 an 1/8, average cost I think, and there are 8 1/8's in an ounce, so some prick dealers will just keep it at that cost, and charge you $320, which is a huge ripoff.

Around here, 1/8's are $35, and I usually buy an ounce once a month or so. For me to buy it in 8 1/8's, it would run me $280, with 8 trips. If I were to buy in 1/4's, for $60 each, it would still cost me $240, in 2 half ounces for $110 each, $220.

For an ounce at once though, I pay $190, so there should be at least some savings when you buy in ounces.

If there isn't, I suggest stick with small bags and find a new source for larger bags. If your dealer only deals with small amounts, there is a good chance they either won't sell an ounce to you, or they will rip you off, for one main reason, and that's money. You get a dealer who sells grams or 1/8's, and he sells an ounce for less, that is about a $100 they lose. There is more money selling in small amounts, but also more risk.

Either way, find a good dealer and go for it.

Eyeballing an ounce varies greatly. It all depends on how dense the buds are and that is very different from strain to strain, and there are thousands of different kinds.

Best way to know is to buy a scale. That's the only way to 100% know. Any other time without a scale, you're maybe half right.

Yeah they are worth it. You can make some cash too.

Exactly. Find a good source, and do what I wrote above. Buy an ounce for $190, sell 8 1/8's and make $280. That's a $90 profit right there.

Buying QP's is even better. :thumbsup: For selling that is.
