Starting at $25/g on hash isn't really competetive, its the status quo. Hash prices have gotten out of control. I saw hash oil going for $60/g the other day! Fuck that. That's more expensive than good-quality cocaine! That stuff isn't the easiest to work with either when you're trying to catch a buzz.
I only buy hash/kif when its $20/g. So, as you can surmise I smoke very little hash!
