There are alot of different variables in play; how good the weed is, how much you are buying, and where you live

why don't you ask your friends, instead of posting on here and asking a bunch of people from all over the world where the cost of weed varies greatly?

around me for a slice of mids its 20-25, beasters is 45, and anything good is 50+

do yourself a favor right now, buy a digi scale.

that's retarded to buy a scale. just plain stupid. so that way when you get caught you get slapped with a drug trafficking charge as well? just use whoevers you buy it off of. and yeah dude that was a retarded question. ask your friends.

dude beasters are the shitty stuff and mids is the stuff in between good and bad.

beasters is usually brick weed.

and dont buy a scale unless you plan on dealing, its just extra evidence you dont need

Come on guys, help him out, he's new.
These are averages, for good-decent weed.
Dime ~ 1 gram, $10
Dub ~ 1.7g, $20, 2g, $25
Eighth ~ 4g, $40

You can figure the rest out, it's fairly linear until you get into ounces, but I doubt you'll be buying that much if you're just starting out.

Obviously people on here will say they get better deals, and they probably do, but I'd say this is pretty accurate overall.

no man, mids is weed thats been fertilized.  hence the seeds.  its much easier to grow cause you don't have to sex the plants.  also has reduced potency

beasters is just mass-grown weed intended to maximize profit.

i guess. everyone around here keeps scales in their cars and i just want to fucking shoot them for being so stupid. if you left it at home i guess it'd be alright, i still wouldn't buy one unless you buy a lot or wanna deal. i sold mine.

and yeah around here for middies averages are about:

dime-$10
eighth-$30-40
quarter-$60-70


and i doubt you'll be buying much more than that if you're just starting out. but it depends on what you're buying man, it can be a lot different prices...like i said ask your friends.

You realized you have very cheap prices right? Usually id pay 50 bucks for 3.5g and 25 for 1.75g and 15 for 1g, that was in montana, and its similar in utah and other states around here. Washington is so close to BC that prices are much cheaper.

eighths are always 3.5 grams you're right, and dubs are 2 g's also.
But the average eighth price IS around $40.

... Yeah I don't know what I'm talking about.
(real sarcasm)
Maybe you should read the "average" thing and realize that prices vary from place to place.


And to Heath, oh. I'm sorry for your prices haha.

THERE IS ONLY ONE VARIABLE IN PLAY:  HOW MUCH THE "DEALER" GOT IT FOR
IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER ABOUT THE QUALITY, IVE SEEN SOME NASTY MEXICAN BRICKWEED THAT I COULD SELL TO DEALERS IN EASTERN WASHINGTON FOR 2000 A LB AND I GET IT FOR 400 A LB.  IVE SEEN SUPER DARK GRAPES GO FROM 200 A ZIP TO 450 A ZIP.  JUST REMEMBER EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE AND MAKE FRIENDS WITH A DEALER

if that's what you are paying over in mill bay at school you're getting jipped. An eighth of good shit on the island should run you no more that 25 bucks.

regular prices (west coast generally, PNW, places where weed is always around)
1.7 - $20
3.5 - $40
7 - $80

usual east coast price (from what i hear), also prices for good shit out west:
1.7 - 25
3.5 - 50
7 - 100

weights dont change, prices do. ask your friends if your unsure because prices are very different everywhere you go and everyone on here will have different prices.

also, when you start buying for yourself more often you'll see that its all about who you know and how well you know them. one guy might have a small sack of shitty green for more than the other guy who might have a fat sack of stank for the regular price. all in all it'll vary, you'll see.

It varies between your dealer, the quality, the quantity, and the state/city etc. Just pay what your friends are paying or ask them. If they are your friends they will tell you honestly what to pay.

I cant help but laugh at this whole thread. Some people are so stupid. mtbakerteacher- your an idiot, you get ripped off often i assume. Some people know what theyre talking about but honestly if you dont know what your talking about dont post. Its a really easy rule to live by. Dont go throwing numbers out there that make no sense. This is why i love NS threads like this

make sure you take the weight of the bag into consideration when they're showing you the goods...figure about 1g for a standard plastic baggie and 2.5(ish) for a ziplock...don't let someone short you cause they're putting bag weight in to the total...

i don't know how you are confused.  let me spell it out for you...when you weigh an eighth in a baggie it is obviously going to weigh more than if you just toss just the dank on the digi without the bag.  if someone tries to sell you an eighth weighing 3.5 grams with the bag, you are getting shorted.  some bags weigh more than others...aka a ziplock bag weighs more than sandwich baggie.  based on his question i would assume that he is a young kid.  he's probably buying off of someone close to his own age.  i would also assume that his dealer is probably going to be using a postal scale and will most likely weigh it out in a bag.

now i know this isn't a huge discovery...it is pretty common knowledge among experienced smokers.  however, being that he is obviously a rookie he might not be taking these things into consideration.
