How much would you/do you pay...?

How much do you pay in your area on average for an 8th of Cubes and the same 8th of Blue meanies (Copelandia Cyanescens, not the "cubensis" strain).
In other words, I'd lke to know what the spread is when buying two different species' with such dramatic differences in potency.
It's like comparing a volkswagen to a mercedez, do I imagine the Copes are at least twice as pricey no?

around here an eighth of cubes is $20,
but pretty much no one I know sells shrooms with good knowledge of the strain. no one would even know what a cyanescens is if I brought it up, so essentially a shroom is a shroom

thats why i dont sell very much of the mushrooms i get during season. Nobody would pay me what they are actually worth cause they all think a shroom is a shroom, and the ones they can get for 20 an eighth are the same.
Oh well their loss, more for me.

shrooms usually go for $25 an 8th during summer and $30-35 and 8th during winter. Never heard of 'blue meanies' before.

in my area people pay anywhere from $25 to $35 an 8th. i'd say most common is $30. quarter pounds are like $500. ounces are $160?? prices fluctuate. in general, it's pretty dry. i think this is cause i live in a college town (things are more expensive because of more demand).

I don't think you are fortunate enough to have blue meanies inhabiting your neck of the woods. The blue meanies I get cropping up naturally in my area extend all around the gulf coast states and like it very hot and wet. The ones I see are most certainly Panaeolus (Copelandia) Cyanescens and are most certainly at least 2-3 times more potent than the commercial Cubensis' I've had before.
I normally don't get visuals from dried cubensis until after breaking the 8th mark, but 1 gram of the fresh blue meanies can set off intense visuals.

damn 60-100$ for an ounce. Over here $120 is considered an amazing price that nobody can find. The standard price is 150 for an O, but ppl easily buy em for 170 at this time of year.

Yeah I know, $120 was the best price I ever saw 100 miles north of where I live now. There just seems to be an abundant supply here, I think there's some folks who just mass-produce mushrooms. About a year ago they busted a house that was so full with terrarium-filled mushrooms that there whoever was tending them didn't have room to live in the house. I figured prices would spike, but they've stayed pretty much normal.

just curious while your all at it, from what i hear cyans are 2 to three times more potent.
My experiences seem too agree, but in your opinions, what does a gram of cyans equate to? two grams cyans? three? In terms of the weight of standard cubes.

In my town, and surrounding area, mushrooms are extremely rare to come by. Unfortunately I'm actually the only soul that can get them in my whole town. I could charge up the ass for them as no one else could get them anyway, but I'm not about that.
I get cubes (only) for $25 an 1/8. I charge the same exact price I get them for, though. So they would go for $25 around here.
Whenever anyone else picks up and brings them into town they charge $40 an 1/8! It's bullshit.

I've never gotten cyans, but I pay anywhere from $15 to $30 for an 8th of cubies. Price is not a good indicator of potency, as I've had many $15 8ths that knocked me on my ass.
