Wholesale pot prices plummet. Now there starting to get better

[Hammerhead]

that a good price. keep going back there for sure. I only have 1 Dispensary close to me Iona's Farmacy they wont buy good weed. Finding the small niche markets is not easy. Im at a lose of words when the due says no thanks to buds of this quality. It boggles my mind lol.

the past month i havent been able to get anything more than 25 a unit. i am super stoked i found this place. they seem to really care about quality over anything. which in itself is a diamond in the rough.

now if we could just get everyone on our end to just say no to consignment...

 

[skull and roses]

I wish everyone would quit consignment. I WILL NOT DO IT. It really comes down to who you know as usual. I find that if you deal with folks who move a lot of outs the price is always low for indoor guys. Brokers wh do both and always need some indoor the price is better. Folks that deal with in's only the price is best. It's usually people with out of California clientele. I haven't been to clubs lately. I'm getting 25 for most and 27 for og's and cherry pie. Another 2 months and things go up one to two points. P. S. This is for 3 to a 5 pack at a time, so smaller amounts.

All butte county but none of it is staying in butte. ^^^^

 

[localhero]

all the clubs I knew who worked only on consignment are all gone now. It's a bad business model and This was before they cracked down on post ico clubs. After getting burned a few times a few years ago I made it a policy never to do consignments. Wow even the thought makes me wanna break something.

Why do you think consignment is damaging? I don't see why it would lower prices? Curious.

The best move I've found is to just walk when they ask you to consign product.

Usually you end up getting paid for your work when they see you aren't going to swallow their shit.

 

[Arthritis_sucks]

Cosignment sux my bahlz, i used to just say tanx for your time an walk. 50% would stop me, 10% asked for a number an called later after it was gone.

The problem is no bahlz growers standin their ground an lowballers just tryin to pay bills an hurt it for everyone. I keep saying we need buying facilities that are regulated by fair market values.

 

[Backyard Farmer]

Hell yes we do arthritis sucks.

Go read the Riu Cali section and the long list of growers getting jacked on consignment....some of them are even fronting to delivery services

 

[skull and roses]

You will get ripped off at some point on consignment. I did and everyone I know has. I wasn't relating consignment to prices, just stating that consignment is bad business.

Problem in the EmTri, there is always some Dude who will give His Shizzle away.. And Brokers sit in their easy chairs, watching Simpsons, doing dabs, just waiting for the call of financial desperation.

 

[Hammerhead]

that is a problem. those that are in desperate need for cash is fine. I cant fault someone that is hurting for money... I think there's more people letting there good gear go for cheap only because that's whats offered. if we say no the dispensary they wont have any product to offer. At some point they will have to buy at our prices.

I guess that's why people have metioned unions. If not a union then something that levels the playing field, I'm not sure what would work maybe free "how to save money lessons" classes for growers

 

[Hammerhead]

LOL

 

[whadeezlrg]

the most frustrating part of the whole deal is that theyre charging the same thing to the patients as they were when they were paying $4k+...thats literally taking cash outta our pockets and stuffing it in theirs...weak.

in the next few years we will have much bigger things to worry about than COD vs consignment in California. we might even look back and miss the days of being able to consign a bag of flowers and get more than a few bucks for it…

XTRM biodiesel launches XTRM cannabis ventures and buys 40 acre marijuana cultivation property. with plans for five 20,000 sq ft warehouses and 20 acres of open sun production. Tweed launches a mega facility in canada with plans to export across canadian borders. Cranford Cigerettes licenses special colorado strains to sell nationally in med markets across the US.

and these are just the first wave, big money is coming to take our livelihoods away. every single fucking day i read about a new venture capitalist backed company with 10 million dollars in seed money to start a mega cannabis growing facility. every day i read about new med states restricting their cultivation and dispensary licenses only to the mega rich who can afford 100k permit fees and million dollar commercial properties, along with the restriction of home growing so that every other grow is deemed unlicensed and illegal.

shit is changing fast as fuck! we are all on a ticking clock, gotta work harder than ever for less and less pay.

 

[theJointedOne]

yea its kinda screwwy dudes who have no interest other than money are gonna be the ones runnin and controlling production , when us Ca locals get pushed out....

Hopefully it will become how we see the organic/ local food scene; Lots of people, albeit not the majority, are conscious of the benefits of supporting local, small, family farms. They could go to the corner store or a costco for what they need, but they vote with their dollar.

Given the amount of consciousness that is going to be produced as herb is spread, Im putting faith in the fact we will never let big corp/pharma have the entire pie..we get a few slices for us for sure.

I wonder if any of the authors of legislation ave considered including provisions that disallow non local, non CA grown herb. Also would be nice to see a provision that allows and even promotes/rewards small farming of cannabis.

Id be down to throw on some legal fees to get something like that written up for 2016, i bet we could come up with some pretty cool/open/diverse/positive impacting ideas

 

[localhero]

I doubt that anything illegal federally will cross state borders, let alone country borders. what we need is a lobby not a union. otherwise yeah it wouldnt be hard at all for the big dogs to come in and walk all over us while we all watch from the shadows.
