The story of the $500 ounce always bothered me. I mean, nowadays you might see top quality going for that, but in inflation adjusted '91 dollars that would be the equivalent of around $800. I just haven't heard of anyone paying that much for a bag.
I was on dead tour during that time. There were definitely LOADS of different kinds of bud going for $500/oz on the lots. When you're making the kind of money you can on tour, $500/oz for head smoke is nothing.
...there were even shirts being sold at shows that had a pic of a nug and said "Worth more than it's weight in gold" or something like thatcanned abyss1 said:.....an ounce of "kind bud" as we called it back then was right in line with an ounce of gold right around $400 give or take......
