Mesurements and costs?

[BagseedSamurai]

Being as Ive trusted anyone with whom I have bought from, I rarely weigh anything coming in.

But now I need to know some conversions, would anyone like to help?

So if we are dealing with "popcorn" or beasters. Not quite dro but def. not schwagggggg...
1 oz = ?? grams
?? grams = "dub" (20$usd, normally)

Im wondering how the heck they actually make money unless they in turn get GREAT deals and sell at normal pricing. Someone explain!

1 0z = 28 grams, a dub is usually like 5-6 grams. They make money cuz they buy large amounts at a time, buying in bulk in and anything is cheaper..

kk a true oz = 28.3g (thats a dry measurment) but it usually is 28 grams on the street

2 grams should be a "dub" or 20 bag if your paying 20$$

if your dealing w a street dealer then they will charge you up the ass, i used to sell it when i was younger and i was payin 950$ for a hp= 8 oz = 224 g and i'd make a few hundred easy lol...hope that helps


EDIT: i feel i should say this. i'm no longer involved in that shit, as my advice dont do it, drugs and money ALWAYS bring out the worst in people

Chronic: I cant afford bulk, or I would! haha.

Northern: I dont know, If i was going to sling Id be honest about it. Well, more honest than most. I guess thats why Im not in the bidniss.

Thanks for the conversions! :-D

a dub = 1 gram

not always $20, could be more or less depends where you are.

If only there were a safe way to sell your extra bud with no risk.

What in life isn't a risk?

increased safety=decreased value.

Depends on where you are, for sure. I've paid $20 for as much as 7 grams of relatively good bud(usually what most people in Texas and elsewhere pay for quarters of schwag...but this bud was surprisingly really good) to 1/2 gram joint. That joint wasn't anything special, but that's the going rate here(Guam). I spent $20 on weed here, and promised myself I'd never spend another dime(except the few hundred on seeds...but that's fucking addicting). Just about to light a joint of Paia Hawaiiana from Sativa Seedbank(a couple of plants I once thought to be lost forever...recently resurfaced about 2 weeks from harvest, but I took some samples).

A dub is referring to a 20 dollar sack. A dub contains as much weed as that dealer wants to sell you for 20 dollars. It's not a gram, it's not 5 grams, it's not 7 grams, it's 20 dollars worth of pot. Depends on your area, too.

The nickel and dimer is not going to make a WHOLE lot of money. Pot isn't even a huge money maker unless you're moving large amounts. Most common street dealers buy a pound/s or so at a time because there's a decent quantity break in terms of price. Your average nickel and dimer can be turning anywhere between 50-100% profit with the smallest bags most oftentimes having the largest profit margin. That's the problem though. They're (nickel and dimers) the ones always handling the weed, carrying everything, taking all the risk etc. And you still have to go through alot to sell a considerable amount in order to make a decent chunk of change.
