I know a handfull of the posters here live in areas that have legal recreational or medicinal marijuana dispensaries. I was just reading that Massachusetts is opening two shops for recreational use and i realized ive never heard anyone talk about the cost. What is the cost compared to when you had to aquire it by other means? Also how much better is the quality?

Cost is less, quality is much much much better.
Legal weed has proliferated so much that it is now cheaper than Industrial Hemp per ounce.

Cost is more due to the regulation and taxes involved. In ca, we have gone back to the 90s as far as pricing is concerned.
Quality is far better. Edible quality is top notch

Cost is less. Low grade is much cheaper and higher grade slightly cheaper than street prices.
In Ontario, the dispensaries aren't open yet, but you can order it legally online and get it delivered. That being said, there are illegal dispensaries in every urban area. In my city, there are over 50.
Once the government gets there shit together for the permits for legal dispensaries, I'm sure the illegal ones will be shut.
Until then, my 72 year old mom can still walk down the street and buy CBD cream for my dad.

Lots of products available at the store, not just weed.
Weed pills, cream, vapor pens, brownies, pre rolled joints...you can even buy clone plants already growing in soil and a pot.
After the tax increase in Ca, a high grade eighth is running about 42 bucks.
However the stores will usually sell "mini nugs" from the bottom of the barrel for about 30. Its the stale little nuglets at the bottom of a big bag of weed.
Only problem is they wanna see my driver's license when I go in there and I keep telling them that's a violation of my constitutional rights.

I should rephrase that. In the states that are doing it correctly, the price is less than it was 2 years ago.
In hilarious states that are overtaxing to fund an ultra liberal agenda, it's going to be costing you more.
But an ounce of high-end stuff goes for a hundred bucks on this side of the country and at this point no one can say they have the best weed, because everyone has the same weed.
Meanwhile an ounce of industrial hemp buds will cost you $200- shipped.
Imported a lb two weeks ago and turned it into a pile of cbd distillate. The margins are insane and you don't get taxed like a drug cartel.
Hemp created the perfect end around for us to sidestep a ton of regulation.

This board has taught me that about 20% of the population knows anything about the constitution.
Hilarious part of it is the amount the 2nd amendment gets used in discussion. I'm convinced that verbal couldn't even tell you what the 2A says without his phone in his hand.
As far as weed goes, depends on taxes and how much greed is going to be involved at first. Even in Colorado it's taxed like crazy, but you can still buy OZ of some bud that would have knocked hippies dicks in the dirt for 80 bucks. But you can still find shops trying to push $500 ounces too.

I just bought 6 grams of really bomb blueberry og for $50. That's almost a quarter ounce for $50 of bomb shit. That is regular price at the dispensary I go to in Anaheim.

Before the legalization bill went through in 2018, I was picking up quarters(7 grams) for 70 bucks. The taxes are ridiculous, but it's a good thing that it's legal now because in CA you cant purchase a firearm if you have a medicinal marijuana license. Big time 2A violation, but the supreme court upheld that decision a few years back.

Ironically, because those are scheduled lower by the DEA (via having "legit medical benefits"((lmfao)) they don't cost you your right to a gun (at least federally speaking. I think if you fart too loudly in some states it is grounds for taking your guns.) Marijuana laws are going to be changing at the federal level soon though. We're now at 32 states with legal weed.

No. No one who is "addicted to drugs" can purchase a firearm in the state of California That means if you have a prescription for narcotics or a referral for medical marijuana, your 2nd ammendant rights have been voided. However, it's completely ok for a raging alcoholic to purchase a firearm. Why doesn't alcohol require a license to purchase? Its effects are much more dangerous than that of marijuana. When you compare the fatality rates, addiction rates and car crash rates for alcohol and narcotics to weed, the difference is nite and day. Something else that's interesting in California, you have to pay for and pass a written firearm exam prior to purchasing a firearm.

We have had legal dispensaries for well over 15 years. The quality is way higher and continues to be more and more diversified and potent. Price is getting driven down pretty quickly here, and many commercial operations are pulling out because profits are nowhere near what their projections were at a few years ago..
It seems like the California weed industry is simply waiting for the money to be federally recognized and 2-5 massive companies like Phillip Morris will just dominate it and be able to drive out the wannabes. I know many people here who were getting $1,500 per pound a couple years ago who are getting $400 now. The amount of excitement from business people has literally evaporated completely in less than a year.

What is crazy is that the black market has exploded in the past few years. Some of my friends have been killing it lately.

Not that long ago. I think we are on the honor system as far as this one goes.

Just read this....Verbal.....what if someone already owns a firearm(s) do the have to give up the guns if they are prescribed an opiate or med pot??? And completely agree about drunks like me buying a gun, I'm way, way, more dangerous drunk than high...its a fucked system......?

Here in Florida, as marijuana is on the verge of being legal...
...possession of any amount of it in vape form is a fucking felony. Even an empty cartridge

When I watch LivePD, they're always busting people in Texas with vapor pens and charging them with felonies. You can enter the country illegally but you cant smoke weed.
