Seattle is a different market and different law officials.

As you can see from the events of today, it is allot more riskier to deal with any MJ issues in Pierce County.
With risk comes elevated price.
You are comparing apples to oranges, or should I say, sativa to indica to keep in the theme of things.

If the risks are considerably lower where you live to be busted, the price naturally drops.
it doesnt matter what the commodity be it bear gall bladder, coffee, tobacco, or cannabis.
It all works under the same principle.

Heck, back when the feds were eradicating pot and growers and grow shops were harrassed, and you could barely find a fresh halide bulb,. the prices shot up to over 500.00 an ounce in Seattle. This was back in the early and mid 80's.
Its all about supply and demand and as long as LEO makes the supply harder to come by in Pierce county, the prices will reflect this.

Btw Mr. Bestmedicine...any fed busts in Seattle lately?

I bet if/when they come down in your neighborhood, the grams wont be 10 bucks anymore...wanna bet?????
