[Zefn]

I think gipping friends isn't cool. I mean do what you want, but I wouldn't overprice or gip my friends.

this thread just confuses the fuck out of me now

Dude that sucks piniching outta bags.. If you done that to me I would call you up and arrange to meet you and kick the shit outta you and tax everything that you have got on you.. Even your trainers!

Seriously man, you should just start selling again or not bother getting people bits atall if you aint making shit outta it... I HATE people who give u short bags!

[xmordeciax]

When people short me I make them commit Hari-Kari to restore their honor!

JK... but yea don't short people just charge them a bunch! If anything dealers should be hooking up the bags not shorting them!

Well, FOG, there is a thing called a service charge. I don't short *all* the time, but if I am broke as hell, I will go buy an oz, resell it, and if I want to roll a joint, I will. When I say that I short, I don't always short. I short people less than 5% of the time. I am hardly ever empty, but If I am, I will roll a joint or 2 before I resell that oz and make 5-20 extra dollars.

So just because I get it for cheap, I need to sell it for cheap?

Overcharging and market price.
I do not overcharge, because if you look elsewhere, it is going to be the same price..market price. I just happen to have a little cushion to make a profit. Sometimes its a sellers market, other times it is a buyers market. Supply and demand.

So if I just did 'favors' for everyone, technically I would be transporting MJ (risking my car/body/butthole/freedom) for no apparent reason.

If you can't afford what I can offer, then you probably won't be able to afford elsewhere. I just happen to have that 5-20 cushion. If its really good stuff, hell ya i could get rid of it at 60, and people would buy it.

Quantity Quality and Value are the 3 rules when buying. Who cares what *I* get it for? Do you bitch out Walmart because they make a killing off reselling a product to you? No, matter of fact, people love walmart for their low prices. Same with me.

Also, there is a difference between buying schwag/midgrade where there is nearly 25% waste (stems seeds). So yeah, there is a leeway there too. I do not short fine manicured bud because that stuff is more than just 2/gram. Also, 95% of the weight is smokable.

BTW, i do not sell MJ. This is just 'what if' stuff.

[ValkyrieAg]

I suppose when I say 'overcharge' I mean 'markup', which is a nice word for it.

I (may or may not) have gotten POUNDS of schwag/midgrade over the past couple of years, and have *never* weighed an ounce that I purchased. Now, if thats fine manicured bud, you *will* get all of it and I *expect* all of it.

[ValkyrieAg]

Therefore, my only idea was to tell them you have none...or if you can't do that, tell them that it costs more, and if they are willing to pay, that is their decision.

Yeah, I understand what you are getting at, but the last time you went and purchased a bag, did you ask the person you are getting it from:

"where did you get this?"
"who did you get it from?"
"how much did you get it for?"
"how much are you making off this sale?"


Besides, selling is not a good choice to begin with.....but who are you to question the price of an illegal (and i use that loosely) drug?
