Oregon has more legal cannabis than the state can consume in six years
- bitxbitxbitcoin 8y agoThe cannabis consumers I know in Oregon might just take that headline as a challenge.
- dklsafhjskljfl 8y agoIt's SOOO cheap, and you get so much free product (every shop is desperately trying to build loyalty through superior service and bribes). If I smoked weed, it'd be heaven.
- kombucha2 8y agoHow cheap is CHEAP and what is the quality? Genuinely curious.
- marpstar 8y agoMy "smoking buddy" from college has been in Portland for about 5 years now and the deals he's told me about since legalization are just ridiculous. $80/oz for first-time customers. Regular deals at $5/g or $10 for an eighth. It was even crazier deals before the state started collecting tax on it. For comparison, in the Midwest USA an ounce can be had for ~$250 and smaller quantities are typically between $10-$20/g, depending on quality. Quality is on par with what's available on the street in the Midwest which, from my understanding, is generally being exported from Colorado and California.
- johan_larson 8y agoQZ: Oregon has more legal cannabis than they can consume in six years. OREGON: Challenge accepted.
- wil421 8y agoHow else will they supply the non-legalized states?
- EliRivers 8y agoMy expectation from this is to see Oregon now turn its attention to other states and convince them to go legal so it can offload its product and, if it moves fast, establish dominance in those other states. Is this happening?
- Meph504 8y agoThey can't export it until federal law changes.
