Title: When will prices return back to normal?
Post by: thisismyname on June 24, 2011, 11:46 pm
I notice that some things on Silk Road are at reasonable prices, yet some things (Such as the "1/8 oz high quality cannabis" on the homepage that goes for over $100).
Can someone please explain what's going on? Why are some prices normal and some prices absurd?
Is the auto-adjuster down?

Please reply, it'd be much appreciated.

Cheers  :-)

Don't quote me on any of this, but I think the auto-adjuster is based off MtGox and atm MtGox is currently down. ^_^ So they prices are fixed and not changing until MtGox comes back up.

Current MtGox status:
"We will relaunch the site on June 25 at 3:00 GMT. Trading will resume at 4:00 GMT (same day)."

Sorry for the confusing and offputting $100.

Our 1/8oz (3.5g) price is $50-60 usd depending on strain and what not.

Any other price is due to some other glitch, downtime, delay in the auto adjuster, or some other contributing factor outside of our direct control. We try to manually get around glitches when we can.


Prices are weird now because MtGox and the Silk Road auto adjuster are both down. Expect orders to normalize once MtGox comes back up.

We expect to be back to buisness as usual by Monday the 27th.

Whenever you see a price that seems out of line, I always find it's best to contact the seller directly.  Any decent seller should get back to you in a timely manner so that you can work things out.

I've got 1/4oz of Jack Harrer Sativa on for a decent price, especially considering it's quality and compared to what else is on SR.  I can also do full oz if you are interested.
