Title: Can you do all right selling ounces of weed?
Post by: MagikLair on May 18, 2012, 10:11 pm
Hello,
was thinking of just selling ounces of weed.  Just top shelf stuff.  Is there much money in doing so?
Or is the majority of money in selling smaller amounts?
Just trying to decide if I should sell or not.  Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Regards
MagikLair

If you give out samples and use escrow then yeah you will have no issues mate. What prices and strains you doing?

Always check out your competition.
What will you offer they other's don't.
Cannabis vendors come, and go.
Check out some of the long time vendors out.
Look at the Cannabis reviews.

I see a market in mid grade, only cause everybody has AAA

You have the shipping, and packing worked out?
2nd layer in uncontaminated room?
etc......

It may seem easy, but they tell me even mailing that many boxes can be risky.
So think it all out.

I only say that for your, and the buyers protection.

It's funny when you read a news article 20 pounds of weed, not even sealed, getting seized in the mail.

Seran wrap or duct tape, I wonder who came up with that standard?

All cannabis vendors have a market here on SR.
There will always be vendors phasing out, due to being dry, getting out while they still can, being busted, whatever. Too many to list. If you have your shipping down pat, you get orders out in a reasonable amount of time, and you treat this like a real business (How would you treat your customers face to face?) then you will find a following. We don't even care about the quality, as long as you represent it as what it is at a decent price (or overpriced. It seems people WILL buy anything).

Also, from my experience, people only want to buy ounces+ so that is a good market to get into.

Yes but do your math first to make sure it's worth it for you. The cost for mailing supplies, SR fees, bitcoin conversion, and maintaining anonymity can eat a lot into your profit margin.

I think there's definitely a market for more vendors offering ounces of ACTUAL top shelf weed.. there a lot of vendors advertising their bud as AAA but only a few whose product actually is, and most of them are selling grams and eighths.

yeah like 420caps said! got to do your market research bro! like you can do well just selling ounces but taking in the actual shipping! price to sell, the price your buying at, commission etc seizure refunds like for myself I will be selling in smaller amounts but on the side I will offer bigger/bulk deals to capitalize on the available market yeah it looks easy money but on SR a lot of hard work bro
