I'd pay the premium to know that I'm not getting something laced with rat poison or PCP.

  There's no incentive to lace weed with poison. It's an old wives' tale.

    Funny enough, back in college my roommates and I once received a pack of weed that smelled like Pine. It was hard to burn, so in his paranoia, one friend suggested it was spiked with Pine Sol. He rationed that it was sprayed in order to weigh down the weed. He refused to continue smoking it and called us naive for not believing someone would spray it to weigh it down. After some arguing and googling "weed smells like pine", he came down from his paranoia perch and relaxed.

    There is an incentive to lace it with anything that will increase weight and not be obvious to the user. There was a news report in the UK a while ago about people adding glass (or something like), IIRC it was well substantiated.

      I believe it, but it can't be common, since pot in end-user quantities is described by weight but actually bought by volume. An eighth looks like an eighth looks like an eighth - you eyeball it, say 'yeah, that looks like an eighth to me', and fork over your cash. Say the dealer laces his pot so a twelfth of an ounce actually weighs an eighth. Unless the additive somehow plumped up the pot's volume, the buyers would look at it and say 'you're ripping me off - that's a really light eighth.' Sure, the dealer could then bust out some scales, but that would be weird. Not to mention dealers love repeat customers and glass in the mix would put an end to that quick.
