Is it me or are the boys'n'girls in OZ and USA getting much better deals with weed than we can get in the UK?
Don't get me wrong, great selection and i realize its all about supply and demand. But say if i want a 1/4 oz, the prices over previously mentioned places seem to be much better than here in the UK.
The trouble is they only do mainland deliveries. :-(
For safety reasons i'd rather deal mainland only too.
Thoughts????
-
Americans/Canadians have more land and can grow more, we have better supply lines. Plus we get shit from South America/mexico.
Brits have Holland, but North/South America is king for weed and prices.
-
I'm proud to say that as an American I only pay $900 for medical grade AAA Lbs. :) I mean yeah, we have obesity and diabetes but comon, $900 lbs? Thats worth the health issues.
-
not any cheaper in OZ for our counterparts if anything more expensive.
your climate would have something to do with it also as it would predominantly if not all indoor
-
out of interest what is the price for a Q from a US vendor, in £ if you can.
-
IRL I get 1/4 for about 54£ of high grade medical bud which is in a state which it's still illegal but luckily I know people ;D but I still don't get great prices :-\ since I have friends up North that get Ounces for 77 Euros
-
seriously you get a pound for 900 dollars?
as in 16 oz times 28 grams or 448 grams for 900 dollars? so basically two dollars a gram? where did i mess up my math
why the fuck do i have to pay 60 dollars for an eighth just because i smoke occasionally? i should be able to get an ounce for 60, i mean obviously bulk is cheaper but why are ounces still over 300 then?

i gotta call bullshit on this. there is no way he gets a pound for 900 dollars. Maybe a half pound. even that would be a lot cheaper than I can get it for and I live in CO where weed is legal.

Thats normal price in whole europe.I have no idea what kind of weed is high grade medical,but in czech republic top quality indoor costs 7pounds/10grams...
-
Because you Brits buy your weed from the Netherlands. From the Dutch. Who are greedy people, and have been all throughout the centuries. The only reason they allow marijuana and prostitution is because then they can tax it, and make more money off it.
Nah just kidding. I expect that it has everything to do with supply and demand.
-
My prices are fair!
My 1/4oz are around £70.
Check me out!
Dank

People can get pounds cheap.... but who says its any good? I get weed super cheap and its always good quality! it really depends on the hook up you have I guess...

Too tired to read this all, so I'll just assume this is about weed being too expensive.
My current goal is to offer quality stuff for normal amounts of money. Still need to get more into the fees thing on here.
The fees and shipping make things overpriced.
I'm from the netherlands so I could try and ship good weed (in my opinion..).
But I still need cash for a fucking vacuum sealer and a vendor account. I think I thought backwards: first get dope, then become a vendor. Should have read more as well.
I would give myself -1 karma for this if I could ;)
What would people consider good prices for 5 grams of quality weed in the UK?
I'm sure people in the UK can get good stuff as well. Weed can be grown anywhere. I once experienced very nice weed in the USA with a lower price than out here in the netherlands. Probably it was a really rare occasion.
When I get the right equipment for getting rid of the smell, you will NEVER get crap with seeds or just a bunch of leaves.
Will not be 100% organic though. Some hate non 100% organic. I like it since I have a high tolerance and can use the chemical boost.
-
i sell at £35 an eighth, its a bit more than i charge for IRL but it covers the costs of running a business through SR, i used to charge £40 but i have recovered the vendor account costs, vac sealer etc, so i dropped my price to reflect that, i do charge to cover the postage but all packaging is covered in this price too,

Im dead serious, the guy runs out of a hub city and I have to bus to him but for that profit margin, who cares lol

Its medical dude, I push the Ozs for 350+ alllllll dayyyyyyyy longgggggg. As soon as I learn the art of proper packaging and shipping I fully plan to get a vender account (with prices much cheaper the ass-rape I charge IRL :P) You just have to get it directly from the growers, add a single middleman and then your paying double that....

Wooow, bad karma and bad business sense on your part....
You can sell ounces for like 200$ and still make bank! While cornering the market with your prices! Why someone would buy a LB. for 900$ and sell ounces for 350+$ I'll never know....
In relevance to the topic, we have cheaper weed because it's become more tolerant here, therefor there's more of it. Since states have been jumping on the Medical Marijuana bandwagon, I've noticed quality rise, and prices drop. "regular weed" or "schwag" just ain't around anymore unless you fuck with black dudes in the ghetto.
Thing is though (in non-medical marijuana states) some people sell shitty grown sensimillia for a high price.
The price of marijuana lies within the risk of it and basic human greed.
Considering cost/labor, it ain't that fuckin' expensive.
60$/eighths and 350$/Oz's can kiss my fuckin' ass

In California it's possible to get outdoor grown pounds for less than $1,000, so I actually believe him on that. Up in the Emerald Triangle there are outdoor growers pulling anywhere from 100 (legally) to 5,000 (illegally) pounds per harvest. When everyone and their mom started growing indoors a few years ago the outdoor market fell apart; they used to get 2,000-2,500 per pound...now they are lucky to get 1,500. The growers that are really hurting will sell for sub-1,000 per pound. Don't feel sorry for them though...when you have hundreds of pounds it's still possible to make over $100,000 per year growing!
What I do wonder about is that he is claiming it is AAA medical quality, which is questionable. For starters, medical grade can be anything since there is no formal grading system for medical marijuana. For second, it's no secret that indoor bud is superior to outdoor. Outdoor bud doesn't get the care and attention indoor bud gets...not to mention it is subject to the harsh elements of the environment. GRANTED, Outdoor-grown Cali bud is better than most garbage that comes up from Mexico, and a lot of stuff grown in other states. If you're on a budget, it's not a bad choice, but I wouldn't go as far as to call it "AAA" quality

1000usd/pound of great outdoor? Pleeeease could someone start importing it to Europe?? :-))
