Legal weed industry in NYC is dying

[Don Snow]

Make weed illegal in the city again


Too many smoke shops everywhere which in turn brought so many fiends and crackheads lurking around


Then you got people that wanna smoke everywhere now on the bus the train and in the station

I’m tired of it

In the city? Honestly, it’s a little bit cheaper, but not by much.


Same situation in Jersey but my local spot gives me hella points. I only go on days when i get double points plus i get a discount for being a local. I usually end up with a free half once a month.


All depends on where you live there.

it works so much easier in Boston and Detroit than here

It's not a lot more expensive but I could get a quality eighth for $30 illegally. Now it's $37.42 or something.

The first one I went to was MedMen on 5th Ave & that was weak & expensive..

Now they're shut down & out of NYC

There's some boutique spots that opened up around my way. Same presentation..loud music, greeter outside passing out cards...but not that many customers inside..

I'm not a weedhead but I did buy some gummies in NYC this summer. The same gummies I can get for 6.00 in Bama(they're banned here now)were 25 in Chelsea where I was staying for reference. shyt was just high for no reason.

The prices are def the problem. shyt be 2-3x the value from the street and hit just as hard.

But boy o boy, when white people get involved, the lawyering and monitoring shyt start poppin off.

Because they want too see everything. They want to control it all.

Get a med card and pay half the recreational prices. People complain about price when there's a simple solution. Rec has more brands so more options but it's going to be a few years before there's fair pricing.

Big weed head here. I thought making it legal would make it cheaper but it doesn't. The taxes on the weed make it slightly more expensive than when it was illegal.
I think I don't like that it's legal now. lol

Paying the tax is worth the benefits of weed being legal.

Make Washington heights great again.

1st place I ever bought weed from back in the day lol Literally took me 5 mins walking down random blocks

Legal weed has been a failure.

Legal Weed is useless if it isn't federal level as there is zero incentive for major companies to invest in production hence all the fukkery with these shops.

If it goes federal it’ll be even worse most likely.

The legal weed shops favored White people with wealth. Black people were frozen out of it. I'm glad the legal weed shops are failing. fukk 'em. Support Black business.

we have legal weed here, but I know a ton of people who are happy to drive 50 miles over to michigan and get it over there for a SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper price.

plus they have so many dispensaries out there, they are all in competition with one another for your business that they are constantly giving away freebies like gummies and flower

michigan weed has a comparable price to street weed. and u can get pens for under $10 sometimes.

I dont smoek or care about it but mass production to meet demand tends to be what lowers cost, right now weed is still niche and a lot of people dont really care, so main benefit is not going to jail, but I would assume smokers would just stick to their existing plugs rather than even mess with smoke shops.

Yes, we need a company with a large investment it make it legit cheaper.
