[PA] Misaddressed Marijuana Goes To Elderly Couple

Package Contained $10,000 Worth Of High-Grade Marijuana

POSTED: 9:40 am CDT April 25, 2011
UPDATED: 2:22 pm CDT April 25, 2011


UPPER DARBY, Pennsylvania - Police say an elderly couple was the unintended recipient of a very seedy delivery: a five-pound (two-kilogram) brick of marijuana.

Police in Upper Darby, just outside Philadelphia, say the couple paid little attention to the package when it was delivered last week. Not recognizing the name, they left it on their porch, expecting it to be picked up.

When nobody claimed the package, the couple opened it to find what police say was $10,000 in high-grade marijuana.

Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood tells the Delaware County Daily Times the couple gave the package to police, who determined the return address in Arizona was fake.

Chitwood says the department sees about a half-dozen similar deliveries a year and can sometimes track down the sender.

Boy, I wish I would a package like that! You can be assured I wouldn't be calling the cops.

"A very seedy delivery."

The writer probably patted himself on the back for that one.

Than says high quality. The next starburst contradiction commercial anyone?

I could see this happening with a small package, but you'd think if you're sending five POUNDS of kind bud, you'd be damn sure to send it to the right address.  :nonono:

I guess it just goes to show how many such packages get sent out.

Just in that suburb, in that one station, about 6 times a year, and just counting the ones intercepted by police.

Not schwag.  Those are east coast regs.

Low, possibly mid quality regs.  The compressed look comes from trying to minimize volume.

Dank would look similar, though different, if it were treated similarly.  Those buds will never be large again but when the bricks are broken apart and fluffed up it doesn't look all that bad.

Honestly that's standard smoke out on the East coast unless you purchase heads which are often very expensive (always 350-400 an oz+) and have moderate to awesome quality.

People with connections out east might pay 250-275 at the cheapest for mid quality dank at best.

Mostly its either unavailable, very difficult to obtain (have to know the right contacts, of which there are few relative to the west coast but still a sufficient number), and if you do find it it costs.

I'd say this is generally true for most people but certainly not concrete across the board. Prices/quality vary depending on who you know/how ya grow and there's a plethora of variation with these 2 factors everywhere you go.

That last part rhymes very smoothly. Read it in ur head like a rap. It'll feel cool.

Yeah, but Mav, nearly all groceries are cheaper out east, so it evens out.
