        which dispensary were you getting that price?
        $150 - $175 per ounce is wholesale prices - That's what dispensaries get them for and if you are buying at that price through the dispensary, then you are getting a hell of a deal

            Dont count only the major surplus in taxes, but also the less criminal charges, jailing etc because of small pot usage ;)

                    Although I admit I avoid dispensaries like the plague. I can get much better deals than even that and I can get top shelf Sour D, Maui, NYC Diesel, Buddha Sister all for $150 a zip even now.
                    That's before taxes though.

                    When it's that cheap compared to other dispensaries, I also question the quality.

                    I love my dispensary.

                        If there are no ill effects from legalization in CO, it will slowly go elsewhere. Around 1/2 of people now favor legalization and the middle will look at the effects in the pilot states. If all goes well, no stories of high surgeons, high cab drivers, high baby sitters, etc then US sales will be a lot higher than $6b annual.

                            No More States Go Legal

                            Here's why most states won't go legal, they'll owe millions, possibly billions to private prisons, if they are not full.

                                A Federally illegal narcotic vs. an inanimate object that holds ammunition. It doesn't take a very "bright spark" to know who the idiot is here.

                                        I see your point but I think voters still control what laws are made to some extent, even in states without a popular vote model.

                                        Large contractors get their asses handed to them all the time when states pass laws. Those corps may be able to fuck the little guy, but representatives still want to get re-elected.

                                        Again, how much the federal government decides to get involved will matter greatly.

                                            No no no no. That is 100% patently false.

                                            Cannabis even smoking absolutely DOES NOT cause cancer. Cannabis cures cancer. Lung cancer rate in cannabis smokers is lower than those that smoke nothing. I'll be glad to back it up with studies as well.

There were a few people on Reddit over the last few days that have purchased it from the stores, but also had bought it through illegal means in the past. One guy said what would have cost him $25 from a dealer now costs about $40 from the store, but he is ready and willing to the pay the extra to be legal and not have to deal with scumbag dealers.

                                                There were also stories that high demand has sent prices through the roof.

                                                The prices should come down as supply increases. Supposedly there are only about 35 stores that are through the licensing process and are open for business, but there are over 150 more that are still in the licensing process. As those stores (many of which are growers as well) come online the supply will increase.
                                                An eight country wide on average is about 45 to 50.00. 25 would be for reg with seeds and stems. It is 6 days later and people are still waiting outside the stores. It will all even out soon enough. As the Recreational stores become more and more plentiful and supply comes up prices will drop. A year from now things will be quite different. The taxes are bullshit but everyone knows we have to all put up with them for the time being. Once acceptance is gained that the world isn't going to explode if a plant is legal... the taxes will get cut.

                                                I'm moving to Colo near the end of next month can't wait.
