I thought about you when I read this article...DMac wrote:I'd bet that the feds would be selling it for a whole lot closer to the $4500 than $2K (I think you're a little light there) were it not for the black market where you can buy the same thing for about the same price.

Feds learned this pretty quickly in Colorado and it aint gonna be no different anywhere else either. Feds built themselves a very wealthy and savvy competitor.....poetic justice, IMO.

Friend just had his sister-in-law here for the week-end, has a MM card from Mass, has her MM pen (oil). Exact same stuff you can get on the streets (yes, the comparison was made by her with my buddy's illegal pen....no difference), but she gets half the amount she can get on the streets for the same money. Think she's now interested in getting her prescription filled by her brother-in-law rather than at the dispensary at this point? Black market will keep feds in line with their pricing.
