Title: The History of Marijuana Prices
Post by: Catgoesmeow on February 05, 2013, 05:01 am
Where did today's marijuana prices originate? Can some old skool tokers maybe give insight on prices in earlier times? What does the future hold for the price of marijuana?

Historically weed prices have come down strongly inflation adjusted and taking into account the higher quality.
Weed is now cheaper in real terms than it was 35 years ago, taking these 2 factors into consideration.

Some factors of future drug pricing

I expect weed to be much cheaper in the future as it is overpriced for how easy it is to grow. I believe the future of marijuana to be in hash oil. In one thread I saw someone make the analogy: marijuana is to hash oil as coca leaves in to cocaine. I don't know if it is that extreme but America certainly does love a drug rush and there are not currently any legal options except for cigarettes and prescription amphetamines. I don't see how America won't fall in love with the beautiful cannabis nectar.

""I expect weed to be much cheaper in the future as it is overpriced for how easy it is to grow."" (Dex)

Come on Dex, the only thing that counts is supply and demand, not how difficult or how easy it is to make it.

Everybody sells his weed for the same price, more or less.
Depends on the quallity and what your buyer wants.
One will give 10% less or more, then the other.

You will never find the same quality for 50% of the normal price.
Never mind how easy it is to grow weed.
The price of something has nothing to do with how easy it is to make.

Still young of age?

Not even 20 years of age, I suppose.
