Can I just repeat that I am a medical marijuana patient in the Inland Empire and I see absolutely nothing wrong with what Tony is proposing to do? I feel like I am the only one lol.

First off, I want to just remind people that free market is a good thing, making money is why everybody goes to work in the morning, what is wrong with doing that? Nobody is forced to buy Tony's meds, if you don't like his prices, there are plenty of other delivery services as Pharma mentioned, (and many more brick and mortar co-ops if you don't mind the drive). No matter what Tony decides to charge, he is not being "greedy" or "predatory", he is just simply opperating a business for profit, which is the only model that will work. This is why California's medical marijuana is often copied in other states laws, that "free marijuana from caregivers" bullshit I read about in other states just doesn't work and the proof should be quite obvious. Thank god I have the freedom to choose where I get my meds from and am not forced to one grower!

$75 an eighth is what I pay, and it's not even getting delivered to me, I have to drive a good distance for that. In the IE Tony's prices would not at all be unreasonable, and I should remind you that he said that was his "cap", meaning that is just highest he would go on price, If he runs a decent business I'm sure you can get cheaper meds if you are tight on cash, as do most co-ops, (although I never get the low grades hehe). Tony also did mention he is only interested in getting high quality meds, if he was really into jacking people he would buy shit weed, spray it with sugar, make up some weird name for it and label it a high grade, but as long as the quality is there, and he is upfront about his prices, he is doing nothing morally wrong.

Free market is the best way to keep quality and price at good levels with medical marijuana. More supply drives down cost, and good competition keeps pushing quality higher and higher. The motives of those that run the facilities providing the meds are irrelevant, because the patient is free to visit a different facility as they please.

People like Tony are not ruining medical marijuana for California, the DEA is, stop forgetting the real threat to California's medical marijuana system! By targeting legal co-ops, the DEA is the direct cause of why co-op prices are higher than street prices, the price has nothing to do with the people running the facility. It is simple supply and demand, the DEA is eliminating the supply which causes price to skyrocket. Come on people, I'm no business major but even I can understand this!

So again, as a medical marijuana patient in the IE I welcome Tony if he does decide to start his own co-op, although to be honest, I probably will never use his services, I'd rather drive to a co-op, even if it's a bit far, but I'm sure there are many people that are not in the physical condition to be making such trips, and would be interested in his services. Just hope you have a good attorney!
