I have to say the prices are a bit silly aren't they? I l;ive in Eastern part of Ontario Canada and the usual price for an ounce bag is usually between 150 to 200 bugs,,I had run out of medical weed a couple of weeks ago and had to rely on my stepson to get me some and he picked me up some real shitty weed,,,the stuff was harsh, tasted bad and never got anything out of it except a numbing headache that lasted all evening,(price to pay when you get bad shit)..But for 200 bucks an ounce bag is very well worth it, quality weed,,,why you guys are paying so much in the states in beyond belief,,,these dispensaries are just out there making a quick dollar it seems to me,,the underground dispensaries that we have around here know that most of the Medical Marijuana Patients are low income people living on disability income or just don't have the money to be buying any type of weed for outrageous prices, they usually sell an ounce bag for under $125.00 and the weed is PRIMO,,TOP QUALITY,,,I think the reason dispensaries in the states charge so much is because they're always under the watchful eye of the law enforcement people and figure they can get busted or shut down at anytime thus making their money hand over fist before it happens. They can't be paying that much for the product from local producers and they have plenty of them knocking at their door with good shit at very low prices,,,The dispensaries hire and uses a lot of people to run their business but wouldn't they make a lot more money if the prices were cheaper and affordable for patients. It would take a lot of low level dealers who sell CRAP WEED out of business and patients would be almost garanteed on getting good medicine for their care,,,,,
My medical marijuana grower in B.C. sends me top quality bags by courrier every month and the agreed price is 50 BUCKS an ounce,,YES 50 BUCKS! He sends me my 5 bags every month and never have I been so satisfied with the product,,he grows for 3 patients and has an average of 60 plants growing at the same time and he said himself that the cost of setting up a grow room is expensive but once a few crops come in then it kind of pays for itself and therefore no need to charge an arm and a leg to his patients because he knows people with illness and disabilities cannot afford much,,so why can't dispensaries keep that in mind,
Sorry guys jus venting here,,what are your thoughts
