I hope this isn't against the rules..

but im curious, and i want to ask.

After seeing all these giant grows and bust.. i was just curious
about some whole sale prices. Ive only ever been a end buyer/user.

Im sure, im probably the 4/5/6 man back from the grower, which
explains the bloated prices i used to pay.

my curiousiness/question is:

From the Grower to the 1st Dealer. How much you think/know
they pay for a POUND??

your wondering aobut the "factory direct" priceing i was hooked up a while back with a guy who had a small 2 bed house that he used the whole house (since busted) for his grows and i was kinda into the sellin then but i was paying 5 hundred a pound (but this was bout 15 years ago) now i have no idea how far down the food chain i am but i still can find some if i need to for about 6 hundred for a QP

Crap some oz. go for $600. :eek: Where i'm from your looking at paying about $300 or more an oz. on average. I guess it all depends on how good the bud is and what kind. Haven't bought a bag in almost 2 years thanks to our growing skills. :hubba:

a friend and I was talking one night the business of selling MJ and profit.

Around me a QP goes for about 1300 about 4500 a LBS.

So my buddy and I come to the conclusion, you can't make
money selling MJ, unless the Grower sells it to it to his FIRST man
really really really dirt cheap. Everyone wants to make some change
so by the time it gets to "MY" man inflated also. To make anything
worth mentioning, you would have to sell in Grams for like 25$ a bag.

which lead me to ask.. How much does the Grower actually charge.
To make it even worth it to the dealers down the food chain.

and the one that used to get $500 a POUND.
you must be driving a Bentley or Ferrari. if you played the cards right.

think of it this way.. if u grow it yourself your getting it at a BIG dicount.. think of that as Wholesale... I can't wait for next yrs outdoor season... i've got plans.... oh the plans i have... but it'll be an adventure for me... i'm not much of the outdoory type, but i must grow better weed than my boi, we made a bet.. but he's about 6 generations ahead of me, with his own strain.. oh the compition i'll have.. ok anyway back to the point...

an oz here is like 150ish
can get a lb is FLA for like 600
a qp here is like 350
can get 2lbs in FLA for a lil over 1000

no i don't have much of a point i'll be honest....

although by site rules we really shouldn't be talking about selling.... but technically...... it's more on the buying end...

I know people that pay 5000 a lb. Its about 400 a qp mids, 1400 alb mids and 350-400 an oz of chron. From the grower probably not much less;)

Comparing "market" values is not against site rules.
Discussion of growing for sale is. ;)

lol i've been preaching this **** since the dawn of my time, weed prices are based on geographical location, shitty weed + hard to grow conditions= expensive schwag
washington state + the west coast=good weed cheap lol.
i pay 500 a qp for chronic, had some cat piss this time that was straight chronic green and yellow omfg it was bomb, i love skunky *** weed

1lb

or 16 oz

at 200 an oz would be 3200 dollars

and you guyz are sayin the goin rate is 2000 per pound? or respectively 125 per oz for good stuff? from the dealers to your door is +- 75 - 175 per OUNCE in markup? damn.

Seems like the middleman aint that bad a spot to be at 175 markup($300oz = 125grower + 175 dealer).???

i can only speak from local examples..but selling the weed is the same game anyways.Here it depends on your connection.Some guys who run the street have the direct link and get it cheap $3200/Lb TTDollars/$500 US Dollars..depends on the grade also.But for sure if you go buy guys who sell out of their homes you'd be charged a slightly higher price or the same price.From the farmer 1lb ranges from $1000-$3000TT Dollars/$160-$480US Dollars..and location does play role.The closer you are to the source the cheaper it is.

i think it all depends on the location..because i live in the midwest and usually for some good dro is about 350 and if the dealer wants to tax then 400..i used to sell a couple years ago and trust me im not old at all :D..but my cousin has a friend in texas that says he can get a qp of some really good dro for 6-700!! i was plannin on going to Texas for a while because that price is very low to here..but around here a qp could run you anywhere from 1100-1300..it all depends on who you know too..like my brother friend used to grow his own bud and he would give my bro really good prices..like 900 for a qp but that was like one of his best friends..so in conclusion there are so many factors that change price

okay regs are regulars mids are mid- grade a little better and dro is the best bud that you can get..its basically short for hydro but i know damn well that not all the dro i get is grown hydrophonically

I assume they're talking about the quality of the bud.

Here, most assume that low-potency, airy bud is 'outdoor' grown, mid-grade is 'indoor' grown, and the sticky dense stuff is 'hydro' grown.

I've discussed with the dealer how this is all fantasy, sort of like how people make up strain names when they're talking up their product. Apparently most of the cheap stuff is bought in bricks, and the higher quality is bought from home growers. It's a shame.. so many dealers I know are full of lies. Some carry around a scale every now and then, so that you trust them, and then they rip you off the next time when they don't have the scale. Some even mix in schwag (leaves that won't really get you high) if they think you'll put up with it. Oh, and you won't find any bud with substantial surface trichomes, because it's all been shaken/rolled for hash. It's unheard of to find 'dry' product, the dealers will tell you to leave it out on your desk for a few hours, instead of mentioning how they rehydrate it so we get less.

Once you get past all the bull (as exemplified here (http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18619):mad:), the prices are generally fixed at:
1g=10$
3g=25$
7g=45$
14=85$
1oz=150$
1LB=2000$

Oh, and I feel inclined to brag.. as of last night, my homegrown is officially ranked of greater quality than anything my friends or I could have bought. :dancing:
Now if they'll only let me show them how to grow their own! :rolleyes:

thx.... guess all I ever smoke is "dro" :)

I only get to town twice a month so I really had no clue what was what...

Do dealers just stand on the curbs and advertise there products? if not how does one go about finding a dealer to buy from?

well it all depends..i mean where im from people would laugh if a dealer was standing on the corner selling bud!! you just have to know people who smoke because they know people and then they know people and im sure you'd have no problem..you gota also try around a little.. taste different peoples bud and once you find a good connect you're set..it shouldnt be that hard trust me..youd be surprised how many people who smoke who youd never think in your wildest dreams would smoke.. are you having trouble finding "dro" :D

lol no.... don't have a need to look for it, just wondered how those that do go about it.... I know plenty who smoke(over 6000 at my co-op) but none of us buy or sell it as thats not allowed here with a med card.... we can only give it away:)

Thank you all for your inputs.

Out of curiousity..

Do you prefer your buds compressed??

or Leafy??

After my first harvest, I wondered why my buds didn't look like the kind
i used to buy. Then I bought myself a foodsaver, and vacuum sealed
some bud. And compressed KINE bud is pretty dank.

Also.

What grade would you rate your grow?? would it be considered
KINE, or A+ grade?. Everything considering??

Heck.. im kinda glad the "SMOKE" around here is so freaking HIGH.
Because if I could get a Pound for 1000-1800. I probably
wouldn't of ever started my new Favorite Hobby.

If you can get high grade MJ up here in the Great Lakes region for 300 an Oz you are doing well. Mexican weed is probably 150 an oz, but honestly that stuff has not passed I,and I's lips in a couple years.

dude thats nuts. I use to pay 1000 for a QP of some high quality orange bud. I would get low mids for like a 100 an oz. I would gladly pay 500-600 for a QP of some hydro.

1g = $20
3.5g (eighth) = $50
7g (quarter) = 100
14g (half) = 160-170
28g (oz) = 280-300

Well, I have flipped a few p's in my day and the average price I would pay for some decent chronic was 2800(sometimes 2600 or even 24). If I wanted a p of medical(trainwreck x northern lights, sno cap) 3200-36 depending on what it was and who was there. Kush(master,purple, bubba etc) normally went for 4 thousand a p or more. When ever I got the bud from the clubs Id get it in the little containers(usually 130 of them, a few extra for buying the pound) with the name on it too. Having that many containers may seem cool but when they all pile in your trunk because most of your customers have nug jugs youre asking for it...As for mids I couldnt find those if I wanted to.
This is in the sc/oc area by the way

Ever wonder how far down the food chain you were??
If you paid 2800 for LBS of chronic, imagine how cheap it must be
from the Grower to the 1st distributor.

Gotta be someone that is/was 1st person to the grower.
IM curious what the prices are at that stage.

Figure at LBS weight, everyone along the line, probably want to make
at least 500 bucks or so. Right??

SFC

If you paid only 2800 for a poundof high grade, then you are very close to th esource IMO. A close friend of mine wn't even let it go that cheap. 3000 is as low as it goes. This is strictly grade A though.

I definitely understand what you are saying but what really matters is where the bud is being produced,how its getting there, the source, how much was produced in that crop etc. Like I said at times I would get it for for hundreds less at 26 and 24. Medical was always a bit more and kush even more expensive(clubs). I definitely wasnt getting a bad deal considering every other caregiver around here was paying 36 for there p of chronic. I also forgot to mention that my source was a best friends dad so that came into play as well. If I were to go to san fran or oregon the availability would be much higher and the prices much lower but the risk of transporting wouldnt be worth it imo.
