A gram of shroom is, well a gram of shrooms! Lol
Anyways it depends. Are they fresh (I'd hope not) or are they dried?
What does it cost? I don't know as I never sold any except once and I sold it based on what the buyer would pay. I didn't really want to ever sell but this individual was persistent and I certainly was not going to trip with them.
Besides markets depend as well. Are you sure you only want a gram? Don't get me wrong, a gram can be a good time. I took a gram and half and went to see Holy Fuck, and later went out to a jazz club...good times. Or do you want a more full experience? In that case I'd get an eight.
I'd say a good range, depending on where you are at and when I previously bought shrooms prior to growing myself was anywhere from a great price of $15 an eight (from a friend) or up to $45. I usually negotiate but if it's the only game in town you know of, leverage is lacking

never pay more than a dollar a gram. (sounding must like Rory).
I don't know what they go for and am often curious. It is rare for there to be true production, and pounds and such, usually somebody that has fifty pucks in a bin in his basement.
but it is a very expensive high. $40 an eight? That is one good dose. Rory would go NUTS if acid were forty bucks a dose.
then again, they were commonly one hundred dollars an ounce in the eighties, 900 a pound.
I guess the price hasn't kept up with inflation.

liberty caps are considerably more potent then cubes. Two grams should be a serious experience, maybe too much in fact, if i recall, not having had them in decades.

I wasn't even alive until the last year of the 80's and the most I ever paid was $140 for an ounce, which was fairly recent. I thought in the 80's you just threw a $20 and they filled up a gallon bag or something!

My first experience was about 2.75 grams. I was with friends and had a good mentor in eating the mushrooms. Luckily he was also very well versed in spotting junk and fakes.
I don't think I ever had liberty caps, but I grew quite a few different strains back in the day. Some were stronger than others. If it's your first time, I'd say take at least 2.5 grams. I think that's a good spot for most. With that amount, you should get a very good range of effects and be comfortable. First time with psychedelics in general?
Also not to lecture, but be safe. Have a sober sitting partner, things can go wrong but remember the old adage "this too shall pass", you won't die. I had an experience when a bunch of my friends and I ate them in the woods at a remote cabin. My friend had a mild seizure, and fainted. Luckily a friend (although on mushrooms too) has a medical background and the fear straighten me right up. I was about ready to make the 45 minute drive if necessary to a hospital on mushrooms just in case. Certainly not the best of ideas but I wouldn't risk my friends safety on fear of legal consequences. A sober person could have been useful in that situation. Luckily everything was fine and the rest of the night was very enjoyable. The mushrooms may have triggered it for him as he said he was overwhelmed but I don't believe it caused it as I know he had a history.
Another quick example was I sat out on a session and was a sitter. A new user had the bright idea of wanting to be in the middle of traffic. The rest of my friends were experienced and doing their own thing. He legitimately scared me as I hadn't seen that behavior before. You simply can't predict how someone will react. Be safe.
Eta I was a cube grower so that's all I can personally speak to

yeah, looks like the price never went up. I remember a coke for a nickle, a pack of smokes for a dime. A bag of weed for ten bucks, but acid was ten dollars. five if you got a handful.
mushrooms havnt changed much I guess. Oh, and gas was a quarter.

nice story and advice BUT, as someone else said, liberty caps are very strong. The last to.e I took them I was at a wedding reception in Houston. The sister of the bride was a close friend. She picked some out of a sucretts box and gave them to me. Half an hour later my mother pulled me aside (we were at a mall) and implored me to try to convince my friend, the sister of the bride to wear a bra at the ceremony.
it got very funny and very odd from there.

so is 1.5 of liberty caps a good dose?

it is.
empty stomach, a deserve time that is clear of expectation from others, your phone off, no tv, ORGANIC entertainment but I find first timers are better off in the comfort of their homes than out in the world.
imo, no pot till the far end. It tends to dull the crisp qualities. A beer or two maybe but no more.
make sure your house is spotless and you are fresh.
enjoy.

i live 35 min drive way from all my friends so i'll probably end up eating the shrooms with my friend near nature, got to make sure i don't have to drive afterwards

No I know they are more potent by weight. I found different cubes tended to be stronger than others but at the end of the day, it's the same active chemicals we are seeking.
Yeah don't mean to lecture or anything but I use to think no big deal about having some one soberish around. I just simply stress it's a good idea as I've seen that things can happen. To this day I can't believe my one friend just simply couldn't handle the experience, I was actually worried about him going into the road! Shit I never would consider that with a head full of psilocybin.

Man smoking cannabis can help with the nausea from my experience. I always had good times when combining the two.
Up north at the cabin, we would drink too. It seemed no matter how much one drinks, ya don't get drunk.
Always empty stomach, I prefer making tea to eating them. I can still imagine that nasty taste, but with tea it goes down easy and the effects seem to hit faster and stronger.
Your thoughts on tea canndo?
