A buddy of mine sells shrooms for 25 a gram.

Hes in North Texas, where shrooms are as scarce as acid. He can't keep up with all the demand and only has so much to sell, college kids are willing to pay for them since its like finding gold in a sandbox for them. Simple supply and demand, anything wrong with that?

Nope. 
I would probably try to find a different source, but if people are willing then more power to him.

I don't know but I wouldn't want to get busted with a shroom grow in TX. They don't fuck around down there when it comes to jail time.

I live in North Texas and can say from personal experience that I DO MY PART. Prices in North Texas are no more than $10.00 a gram. I personally know 3 cultivators here on the Shroomery that live up here in North Texas that are helping keep those prices down. Mushrooms ARE NOT SCARCE here I assure you. If people are paying that kind of money..... They are getting raped. I hope your friend isn't paying more than 1G for an elbow.

25 dollars is a fair price for a trip (3-3.5grams cubensis) but you don't even get a hint of visuals off a gram of Cubensis. I don't see anything wrong with it, it's just crappy that you have to pay seventy five dollars for a good trip.
Are they even good?

We go through this nonsense once a year here. A rip-off is either not delivering the goods or misrepresenting them as something else.
A mutually-agreed upon price does not fit the definition.

If you want to trip balls then you buy an 1/8 and consume 3.5 gms You should not pay more than $35.00 for an 1/8. Are they good? Hell yea!

Right. 35 is the max anyone should pay for a decent trip. 25 dollars is just right though, where the customer has enough money for other things and the dealer makes a fair bit of profit.
Paying 75 dollars for an eighth is too much for what its worth. You can put that money to better things, like oh I don't know, a tub, perlite, brf, jars, spore syringe, vermiculite, and a few beers.

selling shrooms isn't exactly safe considering the jail time if caught dealing. $25 isn't so bad for such a serious transaction.....

The Price God has spoken!
Growing up, we paid $10 an oz for good herb. Anyone who pays more than $20...

It makes me laugh when I hear "they should be cheap here because they grow wild" Shrooms in the wild could never keep up with domestic demand,just think of the thousands of people that trip everyday and how many pounds that would be I can't keep up with it and I'm just one of many many who cultivate

People who want to trip a few times but aren't necessarily too in to drugs tend to go for shrooms.
It's funny because I actually consider psilocin/psilocybin to be one of the more difficult to handle psychedelics. Kind of like those poor souls who try salvia as their first drug- salvia is like the DARE program in 'ready-to-smoke' form.
I digress though.. really $25 is a fair enough price. If people want a better deal they can surely find one. The fact is most people don't trip enough or really want to trip enough to even care about prices like that. Unlike weed or coke where people may purchase 10+ dosage units a week...

Good point its been atleast 5 years since I tripped on shrooms and it made me feel really uncomfortable so I just don't do them anymore and it has to be atleast 10 plus years since i've even smoked
come to think of it I can't even remember a friend thats tripped on shrooms lately and I mean a couple years
