It's a dirtball move for him to sell them, but what do you expect when you give someone such a huge amount?
Don't give him any more. None. Or at least ask for 700 bucks.
And no I don't agree mushrooms should never be sold. For those of us who don't grow and don't have a friend who does, and don't live where they grow in the wild, there isn't really another option for procuring them.
-------------------- Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it. ~ R.W. Emerson, "Self-Reliance"

I gave a friend a half pound of cyanescens I had left over from last season. He promptly sold them for 700$. When I heard about his sale
What a rat!!
You slaved your ass off finding and picking those cyans, you give it to him so his mind can be free and he makes a quick buck off of it, doesn't tell you right away and doesn't share the money.
Don't ever do this to a principled cunt like me 
If he needed the money for basic survival I can understand it. But he probably didn't. He chose material luxuries over the possibility of spiritual gain.
The average Shroomerite would use about 1 gram Cyans per trip, and trip about six times a year. This would make their annual need of Cyans approximately 1/4 oz of Cyans. The average Shroomerite likes to trip with a friend or their significant other. That would be 1/2oz a year. Turn it to a fuzzy number and your "friend" sold off fifteen years of tripping for two.
And if he had powdered & compressed the Cyans into a plastic 0.5 ltr soda pop bottle and put it into his freezer, those Cyans would definitely have lasted him those 15 years.
And then Cyans! Mushroom of mushrooms!
If only I had half a pound of cyans! And this is a cry of the majority of shroomerites. It would be an utter dream stash, and that friend of yours sells it off for 700 bucks. >_<
Apparently his values are different than yours or mine. Most trippers would find this a sin and an insult to you and the mushroom.

Man, I could hardly get past this point! You do realize how jealous this makes some of us, right? I can't even find anyone to sell me a personal dose around here, and there ain't no hunting going on in So Cal! To be given a half pound of cyans?....I'd probably shit my pants! But I wouldn't sell them, thats for sure. I also think they are to be shared among fellow psychonauts.
