How to Sell Weed and Make Money

Have you wondered how much money you can make selling weed or marijuana?

With Federal and State laws becoming more soft on marijuana it is becoming more popular to sell and grow marijuana.  In some US states (12)  medical marijuana is perfectly legal as long as you have a patient ID card and a doctor’s prescription, and two (2) states are legal for regulated recreational sales! So you can become a certified grower and sell weed to a dispensary–so let’s talk about the art of selling weed and what it takes to become a weed entrepreneur!

What you’ll Need:

* Plastic Baggies

* Digital Jewelery Scale

* Prepaid Cell Phone

* Social Network

 

STEP 1 Get a pre-paid cell phone for posterity sake, I would advise paying cash every month and using a fake name.  Also if you are doing something Illegal, I would not use anything like Facebook and keep everything out of writing, keep all the numbers in your head and hide any note books and phone numbers you have to keep things private. But don’t sell weed illegally.

 

STEP 2 Get a Hook UP. either grow the pot yourself using dirt and lamps and TIME or get a friend who knows someone cool to hook you up. You’ll want to buy a large quantity. It is also helpful to make profit so  DON’T smoke weed. Sometimes the world of drugs can be shady, so don’t just call anyone–especially people who you could never see again–the chance of getting robbed goes up tremendously when this happens.  Think about not going too far from your connections, or have someone know someone–A friend of a friend increases your chances of getting caught, loose lips, and some one blabbing about your setup is not good. Best option is to get your license, and apply these principles to setting up a legit wholesale connection, that you know has their license and knows how to grow and cure it right.

 

STEP 3 Scale and Cost, you want to get a digital scale about 20 dollars, you can also use a counter weight scale if you are going to be selling low quality pot or schwag! A digital scale can help you measure out grams, keep your profits, and help develop trust with you and your clients. Pot is usually measured out in grams.  Here is a chart breaking it all down.  Remember that you make the most profit on small units.

UNIT PRICE Price Variance Measurement
Pound 2,500-5,200 some say 6,500 16oz.
Ounce 325-400   450-600 28g
Quarter 100-120 90-120 7g
Eighth 60 45-75 3.5g
Gram 20 12/15/18 1g

 

Usually dealers just starting out with an Ounce and sell to friends, this enables them to smoke for free and have to sell to their friends.  You can buy an Ounce for usually $325-400 dollars.  If you make each Ounce for $480 approximately $60 per eighth of an ounce. If you sell 28 grams at 20 dollars each that is $560, so you can make your money back and then some.  So if you make $560 per ounce, sell a pound in grams, you can make $8,960 on a $5,000 dollar investment.  Please note that the number listed is with the highest profit margins, a more reasonable number is 6,000, after smoking some, friends’ price, real world stuff, etc..

*Note: Geography can make a big difference on price, laws, supply, demand, who you know all alter the price.  Since this price schema reflects dealing with a blackmarket, there are no standard prices. It will be cheaper in California, less expensive by the boarders and coasts and more expensive in rural areas.

THIS IS IMPORTANT to note – the prices above reflect what the recreational markets price out for the high-end product. Interesting that the legal dealers pay taxes and make profit for the same price – this is because licensed growers don’t have to deal with risks, which is a win-win, which is why RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA should be LEGALIZED.

STEP 4 Be careful. Remember usually when people ask for ounces, say “I don’t sell ounces” stick to quarters, eighths and grams.  That way you stay low on any charges that may be trumped up against you and a NARC will come buy something small, then buy a little more, then an ounce, then a pound, its a game to see how deep your connection is and if its worth it or not to bust you. So watch out if you get a new friend/client escaliting for no reason. And if you really have the love and skill, start a dispensary and become a true weed entrepreneur!

Don’t brag about how much money you make, don’t keep it under you mattress.  Loose lips sink ships.  People are going to act like people and they will get jealous of you sitting around making more money than them selling weed and hanging out all day.  Also if people know how much you make then they will ask for free nugs, and they will say–“hey what do you need the money for?”  Better to just keep you mouth shut, don’t flash your bankroll and stay humble, alert, and on your toes.

  • Nonsense October 28, 2012, 3:28 am

    First off if your on ca or Canada and buying just an o and paying under $165 your getting greenhouse or strait outdoors no way around it. Alot of people in non legal states (and even some of the legal states) people are buying high grade outdoor / greenhouse and think there getting “hydro” or “indo”. Trust me i can send associates top shelf outs / greenhouse as indoor who live out of state (I’m in Ca) indoor from cali goes for 36 to 6500+ depending on state, newyork you can get close to 8000 on singles. Most people think they know good weed, even the people who here are saying there from Cali gettin o for 140 or 100, there just buying outdoor or greenhouse. I use to traffic weed from cali all over the united states I use to import from Canada into the USA ad well. Alot of people talk out of there neck and don’t know much about quality. People don’t know bout getting real top quality indoor 100p for 160k.

    In Canada I live in Powell river across from texada and that shit literally grows wild, we get dank and bunk for the same 10$ a gram meaning 260 an oz but with the hook up I got I get indoor for 130 and its mid.

Your prices are crazy some places like fuck. 60 for an 0 my ass btw.

  • the candy kid October 3, 2012, 5:11 pm

    everyone is shit talking on reggie but these days what sets the reggie apart from the nug isnt how high it gets you its the taste the freshness of the plant and a lack of seeds but there are strains of reggie thatll put your dick in the dirt especialy with all the cloning going on you can get cloned white widow for 1/4 the price just because its bricked or has a couple seeds in it its considered reggie even though it gets you just as high as the real stuff now i dont recomend selling it but if you get the chance to buy some pick it up for personal use cloned strains are almost always at reggie prices (because they technicaly are reggie) nug is over priced we all love it but we all know its over priced save that shit to sell ive tried some strains of reggie that put some strains of nug to shame but of course theres the reggie out there that couldnt get a mouse high and tase like ferminted piss

  • the candy kid October 3, 2012, 3:20 pm

    im strongly considering getting into the business im only 19 but ive been around the game my whole life my hookups are rock solid trustworthy and always hook me fat i have 2 in general one has been in business for 20 years the other 37 years normaly they wouldnt consider selling to anyone my age but because my father has been a very stable customer for decades they treat me like a nephew i can get medical weed for 300 an ounce which around here is absoloutly unheard of around here and i can get the best reggie ive ever smoked it as good as nug without a doubt its bricked but filled with red hairs and never more than 3 seeds in an ounce for 900 a pound and i know i can move atleast a half pound of reggie and an ounce of nug in a week however my biggest advantage is that i live in a tiny town of about 2k people about 30 minutes from any solid hook ups the nug would go for 25 a g easily and the reggie for about 8 a g i could fill up my college fund in mere months but rumors travel fast in small towns and i have no doubt that the streets would be flooded with my product and any drug charge would make me lose all my financial aid i know how to be smart about but i cant imagine getting smacked with a felony at such a young age any advice? a hundred people have asked me to start and id like to be the stable weed source that this town needs id also love the extra money i guess what i really want to know know is dealing weed in such a small town to dangerous to even risk even when there is so much potential dozens of people have already offered to help me move whatever i get

  • Brandon Motherfuckin Jones September 19, 2012, 10:44 am

    @ white widow. Marijuana is legal if your only carrying a quarter ounce. Anything over that is considered trafficking which is still very much illegal here in Canada.

    BTW here in Bathurst New Brunswick, prices are 10 dollars a gram no matter what the quality, a quarter ounce averages from 35 to 50 dollars, a half ounce is 60 – 100, an oz is 120 – 180 we don’t do eighths here. A quarter pound is 350 – 500$ and a full Lb is 1300 – 2500$ The reason why its cheaper here than other places is because the demand is higher in the united states (more people) and most of the marijuana that comes into NYC is from here in canada. Then that weed is distributed through the country. Shipping weed is risky, so the price goes up.

  • big mack September 19, 2012, 6:57 am
