I don't know about bicycles and mids there but I visited a friend in Aspen and he says its 160 a quarter in the stores what with taxes and black market is generally a hundred. I found the vapes and hash oil cartridges to be the cat's meow. Also shatter for 40-50 a gram is a treat.

@ rob333... hahah you remind me of the drunk in The Streets The Irony of it All (

)

Someone is not smoking enough weed.

Back to the ACTUAL POINT OF THIS THREAD:

I moved out of CO AND OR before they went rec legal, but I looked at prices in Oregon recently, and they are as high as ever (~$200/oz, same as medical was when I moved out ~3 years ago... same as medical is right now here in Northern CA)... medical dropped a little... basically that's the only diference I am seeing in med vs rec.... discount for med patients.

Right now you have two things happening:

A) Growers/clubs are charging as much as before, because people were perfectly content paying that price, so why lose out?

B) Supply has not actually met demand. When that actually starts to happen THEN prices will drop.

I have always considered prices outrageous considering the cost to grow, but it made more sense in a black market, where people are taking big chances... from this point out it's just gouging.



HAHAHA I didn't know weed could rumor... is it like the grapevine?

I have no numbers, but I have lived in OR and CO and HUMBOLDT (where I live now) and I'd say that's patently untrue. Tons of growers in those places, even before legalization... and proud of their own shit (CO Mile high weed... haha). I also lived in NY, MI, NV, NJ and tons of others... sure, you could find so Cali weed... or what someone said was from California, but that's because Humboldt was such a class name. Most of the stuff there was either shitty Mexican ditch weed or grown locally... with the occasional actual pound of Emerald Triangle stuff getting into the market now and then. in NYC when I was last there (2005) you could pay $80 and 1/8 for supposed CA bud... VERY few people I knew ever spent that.... most people bougth whatever was still good and cheap (well cheaper, at $50 an 1/8.

Leo erradicates 23,250 pot plants July 2016....you can bet the Mexicans were growing this batch.
On the other hand,Local growers are spending as much as 500.00 per hole in soil,to grow what we like to smoke.
