Am I making a big deal out of this or justified?

So I usually get my weed from my older bro out of convenience and so I don't have to drive to some shady part of town. The last two times I purchased half an eighth of quality herb at $25 per. the first half I thought seemed short so I purchased a scale and after weighing it out came to 1.3 grams and the second half a few days later weighed 1.4 grams. I'm not great at math but (1) 1/8 equals 3.5 grams so shouldn't I expect to get 1.7 grams if buying a half?

*The first half eighth I purchased after asking him if the weight was 1.7 and he said exactly, knowing I didn't have a scale. That's when I bought one and i weighed out to 1.3 and confronted him.*

I guess ultimately what I'm asking is how much do I have to be shorted to justify bitching about it without looking like a cheap as? Should I find another dealer or is he entitled to a "finders fee" without even asking me about it?

In Cincinnati prices are sky high, he sells it to me for what it costs him.

*He isn't a dealer, just a fellow smoker*

1.4+1.3=2.7.....an 8th is 3.5

3.5-2.7=0.8

you got shorted a .8 ...if ur payyin 50$ for the full 8th then go bitch him out! esp. if its ur brother! ....but ive never heard of ppl buy a half of an 8th!..just buy 2 grams!..lol

I pay for a full eighth and split it with a friend but my bro weighs/bags them separately, that's what he says anyway.

Yeah it happens

He prolly scales out your 1.7 and then loads a few bowls and gets high on your expense.

A half gram, or .4g seems about right for someone to pinch

Most scales are accurate to .1 so if you were looking for 1.7 and it was 1.5 or less i'd bitch






Just get your own hookups man, not all connects are in the shady parts of town... I know a hookup whos like 25 years old and lives in a nicer house than my parents ha

If its your brother, just kill him.
Your parents can always make another.

You should confront him. not cause he pinched it. He went and got it so it seems only fair. I'd just be pissed he lied to you about it.

It's pretty shitty for your own brother to be ripping you off.. if anything he should maybe hook you up a little cause you're family. I would definitely say something about it.. if it continues then find yourself another dealer.

The thing is I already confronted him about the first bag being short and he just shrugged his shoulders so I doubt he'll care about the second bag. I flippin HATE people who steal so I'll probably never buy form him again, I don't even want to hang out with him anymore

Ive never heard of people selling half eights, that itself sounds fishy to me. If you let them rip you off a tenth of a gram and said dealer see's this it is only going too get worse for you. If you do not confront him and tell him that he will lose your business if it keeps happening it is only going too get worse and worse for you. Hope you can resolve this petty bullshit, cheers.

I believe that they split an eighth and his brother split the sack.


It's common practice over here, an eighth is like the first price break.

Most of the time its $50 an eighth, and if you don't know the dude your gettin it from it's usually going to be $20 a gram (yes, $20. redic, I get/give for $15)

My bro was ripping me off so I found who was hooking him up than cut his lunch
all his contacts are my mates so I sorted them too at a slightly cheaper rate
he came at me and I called him a dog he got upset and I told him the golden rule
your family don't pay extra same price as ya get it
he got the point and handed back the bizzo
