Title: Is There Anyone Here From Cali Who Has Access To Weed From The Dispensaries??
Post by: czxtvr on January 07, 2012, 04:45 am
Hey people from Cali what's really going on? There is a fortune to be made here for you guys who have excess to the dispensaries there..Where in the hell are you guys getting this stuff from that you're trying to sell to us less fortunate? Don't you know that the dispensaries not only have the best meds but also the best prices..Will someone please stand up and rise to the occasion???

Weed is very difficult to ship in bulk and buying a lot from dispensaries causes suspicion.  I suspect most of the sellers here grow it themselves, which is fairly easy.

The price point comes largely from the cost of shipping and risk of being caught.  Price per gram at a dispensary is $10/gram usually, so the $17 or so on Silk Road does not surprise me.  This is why hash is also cheaper on Silk Road than you would expect it to be, because it's very compact.

420med is always quality.  Hopefully ChristyNugs and Marijuanaismymuse return soon too.   Rook usually has some good stuff from Cali.   Anarcho is good from Canada. 
Yeah I think I heard that harborside sells oz's for $175 on thursdays or something like that......sigh I wish I was in a medical state.....to help me  with my medicated state.  :-)

The weed from cali dispensaries isn't that great mate the quality varies A LOT, if your looking for CONSISTENT quality without having to pay 20-30% extra just get your green from Canadian sources the quality is a lot more consistent, prices cheaper, only disadvantage is that buds aren't as manicured as much but = big deal..

this is all from my personal experience btw...9 years smoking and 5 years buying on and off from various online sources..i'm not even in the states.

there's always arguments on forums e.t.c regarding the quality of both i think what it really boils down to is all the really top shelf green in cali has v.tight distribution channels, when it comes to canada the grows and distribution tend to be on a more bigger scale...

The profit margin is very small.
As said before, even at the cheapest dispensary prices, those prices would not make it to the SR.
Packaging, SR fees, the vendors time, extra to cover the cost of scammers, interceptions, bitcoin fluctuation, etc.

Too many variables for it to be too viable when most can pick up in bulk from a dealer for quite cheap.
I believe this year we will start seeing more high quality bud and more competitive pricing. Just wait it out.

For now, there are plenty of AWESOME bud vendors here on the road. Christy offers top quality california medicine at as cheap as 10/g. Can't beat that. I also see a new and up coming vendor bob who acquires weed from mendo. Can't comment on the quality yet, still waiting on my package, but I have faith that it will be pretty dank.

I still think I will pick up the occasional 1/8 or 1/4 of REALLY REALLY good stuff from 420med, tweetb, or rook but it won't be my main smoke. There are good deals to be had, just keep looking and waiting.

Buying a lot of product from dispensaries doesn't raise suspicion lol, and the dispensaries don't care at all considering most of them are still very grey market. They mostly care about making money. They're not like a pharmacy, it's just a store to buy herb from. We also have budtrader.com which is the eBay or whatever of herb out here in Cali and you generally buy from other medical patients. Anyone in Cali with their card can choose from hundreds of postings with people selling a wide array of buds, concentrates, edibles, etc.

  Both tweetb and lexisadie have killer killer bud. If it's not dispensary quality, it's good enough to be my medication. I haven't tried any other vendors, but uniwiz maintains a thread of who's good and he himself is a good resource for how the quality of the vendor's bud is. Dying to try Christy's stuff, but a little short on cash right now.

  Trinitron explained it pretty well though, the profit margins all things considered are pretty low, and after paying dispensary prices (even if a bulk rate was available) we'd probably still pay more than what we're paying. All things considered, I'd rather pay a little more and deal with a professional vendor than have to find someone to do a f2f.

Dispensaries really cool for the "extras," like hash, oils, tinctures, and edibles. The fake "Stoners" bar (based on Snickers) and related THC-laced plays on established candy bars are absolutely delicious, and quite intoxicating. I haven't had one of those for a while, though, but they were tasty.

I wouldn't be opposed to offering such a service, but it wouldn't be cheap. Sort of, take an order of types of quality they want to spend, go compute price, add fee, make custom listing... It would be a hassle, but anything in the clubs would be up for grabs.

The dispensary definitely don't offer the best prices. The best bud.. yeah. The Mexican's beat everyone when it comes to prices.

SpaceChimp, If you do decide to offer a service, please let me know.  The budder, waxes, oils, tinctures and edibles are exactly what I am looking for.

I would buy a soda and candy bar, just for the hell of it.

I think you are complaining too much.  If you want to buy at a pot club, then move to a state that allows it.  If you don't like vendors prices, then go get ripped off on the street. 

TWEEEEETB !!!
Christy Nugz!!!
420med4u!!!

Quality...no bullshit, ever.  Deal with these people, and be happy.

California is great for smoking weed someone can virtually get it anywhere. Most dispensaries get their supplies from local grower who also have licenses to grow. Not sure how someone would claim taxes on the income someone gets from selling to dispensaries but I am positively sure this is how it goes down. I know two local growers that sell to dispensaries. Good luck on trying to do business with a dispensaries across states though too risky not worth and at the current state dispensaries are being shut down by county zoning ordinances.

I call bullshit.

Who'd you buy from here?? You're talking down the quality of the smoke here????

Unless and until you post who and what didn't meet your standards, I call bullshit. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
