High-priced shrooms
    #5617472 - 05/11/06 02:31 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

AFOAF recently bragged about how he was selling eights for $50. "No one else has 'em so I can charge whatever I want."

Capitalism at its finest or ...?

Doesnt matter, cuz if he's bragging, then he's breaking the #1 rule of dealing...talking. Soooo, it will catch up to him in the end.

Capitalism at its weakest, actually. This is what happens in the black market. If it were legal, there would likely be more businesses competing for customers. And perhaps more people would feel safe growing their own.

That is rather dumb to brag about ripping people off. Maybe it wont affect him from doing it online but that is just stupid.

This site isn't even supporting dealers so tripple gay.

Ripping off implies fraud or theft which did not occur. If both parties agree to a price (this is called bargaining), why is that problematic for you?

It's shitty that he does that, especially at how little it costs him to produce, but if people are willing to pay that much then it's just as much their fault as his. If people stop buying from him, he'll (eventually) lower the price. It most likely will catch up to him though.

I totally agree with this mindset. After all, it IS the black market. There is no ripping off when the consumer and supplier are face to face exchanging goods for money. Its only "ripping off" if the said product is "bunk".

Considering the fact that growing mushrooms is a felony, I'd think of the high prices as hazard pay.  :eek:

Well what do you consider bunk? For fifty dollars bunk could mean the quality is lesser than the value, right?
If you want to look at it so monetarily, no quality of 3.5grams of dried mushrooms is worth in our society 50 dollars. Completely bunk, I didn't get high 50 dollars worth. The demand is made by me the customer, I set the markets. No? In the end if this was the west id go back with my pistols at noon and ask for twice the dose for no exchange of goods, if not, we'll partner, DRAW! :evil: :mrt:

I could state that no gallon of any octane gas is worth $2.78.

Now, what is the difference?

:lol: I've never thought of mushroom experiences as existing on a scale of monetary value.

Perhaps in a subtle way, but for the most part, if someone offers you some mushrooms and you don't like the price, he'll probably just say fuck ya and walk off. :grin:

what the fuck does the price of shrooms have to do with philosophy or sprituality.
