As long as people pay stupid prices for personal use the black market will be there. They were there first and know how to make a profit. Weed is free, all you got to do is cultivate it. I haven't bought weed since the 70s
You can grow your own legally but are whining about dispensary prices!? Even at a east or south window you can get pretty good results in spring and summer, everybody without a garden can do that without energy costs.
Btw, i never did and would never pay more than 10€/$ per 1g/0,035oz for weed, regardless of whether from the black market or a dispensary(if we would have these).
I see new tokers bitching at us oldies, I reply if it wasn't for me (US) sticking our necks out,
you be still toking 'spice'
follow the oldies grow don't buy
