    hey guys

    an old friend of mine started dealing, and i've been getting off her for the past two months. i buy a quarter every week or so.

    the first two or three times, it was decent weed. then it was mediocre. the last few have been crap. she is charging 50 for a quarter, when usually it goes for 45 around here. she recently dropped her prices, i guess she started losing customers

    she delivers, and is an old friend (we dont hang out anymore though) so i feel bad to not go to her anymore.

    what would you guys do?> I mean the weeds not horrible, but you have to smoke frequently to maintain a high. a couple times, when i got the quarter, the weed was still wet!!!!

    stasy with a dealer you know and delivers, or try someone with better pot?

    I see your point about being true to your friend, but she's giving you shit weed and charging prices that should be reserved for better weed. She's screwing YOU. I say ditch her.

    I dont know!! someone else said tolerance, but I mean, its different strains each time, just craptacular. I think she may be getting it off a bigger dealer who hasnt cured the pot properly.

    we were never close, just old friends. we smoked a lot together when we were like 14, 15. then lost touch. she called me a few months back telling me she was dealing, but i only went through a gram a week at that time. i go through pot phases, if that sounds weird. right now im doing 1-4 joints a day but usually i can go days with out it

    im having a hard time deciding if the delivery and past memories are worth it. she keeps saying the new weed she is getting is better, but so far, hasnt been true. one more chance?!

    BINGO! I think Ms. Aline have the right idea. If she is screwing you , is she really a friend at all? Hell the dealers I'm pretty cool with but not really friends with will tell me the weed is lower than should be expected and will usually give me a discount. Then again I don't know your friend situation, but i am still with Therese, ditch her.

    IMO you should retain her as a contact just reduce the amount and frequency tell her you are cutting back. If her supplier gets the good stuff back no problems you still have access. Having more than one dealer is not a bad thing.

    Sometimes the market moves what it has and quality sometimes comes in cycles.

    i would find a new dealer..
    i could see if you guys were really close and all that, but you're not anymore for whatever reason so it's not like you're fucking her over. plus, she is the one giving you shitty weed.. if she asks just say you're trying to look for some better weed.

    No my man you get a tolerance - it is an irony that never fails to amuse. Smoke less to get high more.

    Have you tried disputing her pricing? It's not like drug dealers are going to voluntarily charge you less if they think you're willing to pay the same price for something crappier than you're used to.

    I would keep going to her until you find a new dealer.

    do you have other ppl that can be a solid weed hook-up?

    id say go in a different direction and tell your friend your "cuttin back" or something for a while.
    and if you cant find any good dealers else where you can always go back to her...

    I'm in northern MI and weed up here has been pretty shitty lately. And it's hard to find a reliable dealer because there have been so many busts. Every weekend under the court news in the paper I'm seeing 5 or 6 new people serving time for selling.

    Last dozen or so pick-ups have all been from different people.

    If she's your friend, even a casual one, you should explain things to her. Explain why you aren't happy about the situation. It's not fair to give a friend a "last chance", unless she knows its a last chance.

    Just tell her what's what. For example, there's a guy I know who knows that I have contacts that are better than what he can provide, but when "things get that way" I go see him. He knows that he's not my first choice, but there's no insult either implied or inferred.

    Your friend knows that folks buy from different sources. Your buying from others shouldn't bother her.

    She provides a product and service for a price. Straight dealing on your end would let her know that similar product and service can be obtained at a better price. Competitive capitalism at its finest.

    just try another dealer once. it wont hurt, and keep buying from ur friend at the same time and see if the other dealer is worth it (e.g prices, quality of weed, and maybe delivery if you want) and if that dealer is better by a bit, just go with that dealer.

    just tell her you're shopping around for some good weed until she gets some good stuff back in, a good dealer would understand that and probably try to find better weed so she can mee the demands of her customers.

    in this area, the weed was kind of shitty in january-february, but it's picking up again. i think a new crop has been harvested by one of the big growers.
