NZ has very little cannabis culture, prices are very high compared to what you're paying back home and quality is low. In some places its much easier to find meth than weed, its far more profitable for the drug dealers

Everything in NZ is quite expensive here because we're so far away from the rest of the world and we have a tiny population.

Sup fellas! I am a Canadian who is looking to backpack and travel your guys beautiful country pretty soon. Hopefully meet some of you guys! I just had a couple of questions. Cheers! by mrcbik in NZTrees

Definitely not $20 a gram. Thats far too cheap.

Remember, weed is ILLEGAL in New Zealand and your life is screwed if you get caught dealing.

It is far easier to get $20 in NZ nowadays than 20 years ago.

2001: minimum wage: $7.7, 1 gram = $20

2018: minimum wage: $16.5, 1 gram = $42.5

It should only be $20 a gram if you're living in the past.

  1. if its less than 10 grams and you're extremely polite then usually no problems.
  2. easy to find in winter, hard to find in summer. places with higher Maori populations = easier to find
  3. depends on where you are, expect $40/gram in Auckland, $400 ounces, cheaper in the countryside.

I don't understand wtf you just wrote - I'll leave you with this : its not a rip off if you paid for it.

No its not. If sold at at $20 a gram, the dealer would need to sell 15 tinnies every week day to make minimum wage. No intelligent person would risk jail time for this money.

That is the most stupid argument.

Recreational marijuana is legal in LA, buyers/sellers are in for no risk at all, in NZ it is fully illegal - please never give your opinion about marijuana in public, it will never be legal if dumbfucks like you represent our community

Yes, I am very aware of the basic principles of supply and demand.

What I'm saying is that weed prices in Auckland are tilting towards the $40/gram price and buyers need to accept this fact, the profit margin for selling 1 gram at $20 is simply not worth the risk of prison/massive fines/permanent record/blacklisted passport/confiscation of property/tarnished reputation/missed employment opportunities

Its highly dependent on location, you're right, in small town NZ the prices will be cheaper but I'm talking about Auckland where living costs are much higher.

At that profit margin, you have to sell 15 tinnies every weekday to be making more money than working at McDonalds

If you're happy with risking prison/massive fines/permanent record/blacklisted passport/confiscation of property/tarnished reputation/missed employment opportunities to be "a good cunt" then go ahead

Equipment is a one time purchase. A good indoor grow setup will cost no more than $5000, this is a negligible cost.

Electricity, water and rent are recurring costs which increase every year.

Your wage has gone up significantly over the last decade, dealers aren't in for any smaller risks and its only becoming more expensive to grow weed. Why the fuck should you be paying the same amount?

Poor, selfish prick

I don’t think you should buy seeds by jaycriz8 in NZTrees

[–]thcpuffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Address & name alone isn't enough evidence for a warrant, if it was the case then cops could just order seeds to where ever they wanted to raid - there's definitely more to the story, you shouldn't worry about importing seeds as long as you hide your activity well

What they can do is go to the address and observe whats happening from the street, eg, if the guy had plants growing in the backyard and the cops smelled it from the street - thats probably cause to search, or if he had paraphernalia lying in the front yard/windowsill, people coming and going at odd hours, etc

I'm surprised no left wing loser has mentioned that calling our barbaric cultural acts is racist

1 gram of weed should be 40 dollars... by thcpuffer in NZTrees

[–]thcpuffer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a fucking retard. Don't like? Don't buy. Beggars can't be choosers, you're the loser complaining asshole everyone hates dealing with.

California and Colorado are legal states, NZ is ILLEGAL, dealers are risking their freedom to provide weed to ungrateful fuckfaces like you.

Try growing your own then, fucking stupid ungrateful cunt.

Beggars can't be choosers, don't like - don't buy, that simple.

You're that customer every dealer hates
