Step One: Buy local product for $1000/lb
Step Two: Lease cheapest location in sketchiest neighbourhood
Step Three: Charge boutique prices in the name of compassion
Step Four: $$$$$$$ and/or eventual bust if they just start selling to anyone and everyone
It's like being an LP without all the pesky regulations and overhead!
I'm all for compassion clubs, but opportunistic ones like this that are just popping up now and charging these kinds of prices have some pretty questionable motives IMO. We'll see what the police do, but there was just a raid the other day and I have a feeling that they will be clamping down on dispensaries that don't have rigorous record keeping and admission policies.

Some are operating rather loosely, yes. But for the ones that (i hope) are operating properly, with clean facilities and adequate security that the price may be justified in the end. We've all tried buying locally and setting up shop, hell its probably how most of us on here pay our rent, but these guys are taking it too far. Agreed. Why doesnt everyone just buy a pound for 1,000 locally, support your local farmer not greedy corporations right?
no not at all. theres sealed lbs that go across Canada daily.

Quite a few dispensaries/clubs seem to do mail order with no problem. If the MMPR ever takes off like they are hoping there's going to be 100's of kilos in the mail everyday anyway, whats a few more slipping by. They don't check every single piece of mail that goes into the postal system ya know, far from it.

Mail is NOT opened in Canada !
Yes there is...send it Priority courier with Canada Post. It's a one day service so it's the fastest..more money though. Second, package it smell proofed. Make it won't smell. If it going in Canada you on't have any issues. You can also purchase extra insurance to cover it's value...this is optional. This is the best most secure way to mail it in this country or use UPS or FEDex or Canpar. But use the highest level of service. You'll be fine then.

I used to buy from the BCCCS and they would ship it to me no problem. Now that may be because what BC the Yukon generally follows, but I can't see why shipping would be a problem.
