Title: Do you guys really want cheaper, greenhouse medical marijuana?
Post by: BajoZero on June 08, 2013, 08:26 pm
Hey Newbies  ;D
In the past, I've focused on only top quality, indoor grown, small crop, organic medical marijuana.  That shit is expensive.  There's simply nothing more that I can do to bring down my prices for buyers.  But I've noticed: 1. Everybody seems to want cheaper weed, and 2. The weed that most SR buyers ultimately buy tends to not be top quality. 

I know that ultimately, everybody wants top quality drugs at low, low prices. But let's be realistic.  Sure, in Cali, you can get weed for $1000/lb.  But the best weed costs a hell of a lot more than that, even in Cali.

I'm not going to stop offering amazing bud.  But I know that lots of people can't afford amazing bud, and just want bud.  So I'm trying to determine whether or not I should stock lower-quality, greenhouse grown weed.  If you buy weed on SR, please let me know what is your interest in this by responding to this poll.

Thanks!

Well, personally I'm buying from SR because I lost my connection to good quality product where I am and I'm not in a medical marijuana state. If I'm buying I want quality and I'm willing to pay for it but I know not everyone else can always afford that I guess. And I like that there's a lot of variety across the vendors on SR. A lot of times I don't have much of a choice buying locally.

Well, I guess everyone has different needs and buying habits, but personally, one of my main reasons for going to SR is access to top-notch bud, since it's hard to find reliable sources in my area. In general, I think it's much easier to (locally) find mids/regs than it is to find consistently high-quality, medical-grade bud.

Naturally everyone is going to want to get the best quality for the lowest price, but I think that many people who only want the best are willing and able to pay for it, including myself. I wouldn't necessarily agree that most SR buyers want cheaper/lower-quality weed, but then again, as a vendor you would probably know more about that than I would.

Maybe try selling some small batches of cheaper mids along with your usual stuff and see how it goes? I'm not experienced enough to offer any advice on the economics of selling bud, but I hope you give up on offering the highest quality stuff you can!

I voted no.

My only interest is in high grade marijuana. No reason to smoke anything else imo.
