My post wasn't a "justification", it was an observation. Perhaps I wasn't explaining myself well enough, but I meant that with the craft model, the feelings of trust, familiarity, personal touch, etc., are exactly as you say, psychological happenings. There can be truth to them, and I'm not here to argue whether or not there is in this case. How the hell would I know how you guys treat your plants, if you have pests, use harsh sprays, wipe your ass with the fan leaves? I'm not claiming that Hyoto cares for his plants and you don't, or that he massages them while you toss yours around. I'm saying that if his business model is based around the perception that he produces a smaller quantity of higher quality clones, and therefore charges good money, than so what? Everyone runs their businesses the way they choose, and you shouldn't be so uptight about someone running theirs differently.
I completely get where you are coming from about business models. It works in many industries but at the same time it is also a way to take advantage of people who do not have a clue. You can call it uptight but I am just laying out the reality. If you guys want to charge/pay 1500% markups be my guest. I am not telling anyone how they should run their business, just pointing out the prerogative.

JFC, just stop dude. This thread is nothing but you arguing with everyone. Go start a pricing thread. I'm not sure how much clearer the members here can make it. You're ruining the one thread that actually helps consumers seeking reviews for Strainly.
100% agree. Bro its cool that you feel that the prices are too high. Everyone has been very polite in listening to you. Shut the fuck up about the prices.

Everyone has wanted to talk so I talk back. Seems like people like to respond without getting a response. A little hypocritical on the face. I see you are one of those special people with Tangerine up there. Don't want a response but lets see if you keep responding.

Take a road trip, Greyhound is cheap. You can get this cut from PCG at several dispensaries for under $20..

Some people are hopefully going to get it. I can care less about these commercial cats who if they want to pay 300 for a cut yet they know its cheaper, oooo well. Best to them. Its more for the new comers who don't know this. Who for some reason people tax the hell out of because they live outside of cali. Main reason, because they can.

A lot of the dispensaries aren’t selling the real deal, I bought like 8 strains and all were fake, and of the 8 fake cuts 7 of them totally sucked balls.. point is I’m willing to pay 300 from someone with a good reputation.. if I’m not sure of the source then you can’t even pay me to take them..
Please let us know which ones you are referencing. This way there is more credibility to the claim, because what I see from PCG website is that harborside is one of their vendors and they are constantly doing drops on Twitter. I would love to hear your strains that were fake and from where. A lot more detail than just dropping numbers

Could not agree more. I want to see them grow, show and glow or I'm not interested.

Do any of these cats sell on Strainly, that you know of?

I dipped in the trash we’ll see what happens.
I’ve grown plenty of repeatable gear that cost hundreds of dollars a pack that still was whole packs of males and bullshit phenos, so it’s not always that fire comes out of every pack. I think sometimes you just get some bad luck too but I won’t believe for one second that there’s fire in every pack of a reputable breeders seeds. let alone one seed. I have had the misfortune of growing out nothing but trash for three fucking years so i don’t appreciate a lecture about where you get the good stuff I’ve been looking.

Ive NEVER found a Non Potent Plant in Dominion Seed company

Local Skunk
Dominion Skunk
Munson
Granny Skunk
Screaming Eagle

Every plant was so good from each strain it was hard to choose which one to keep as a mother. On a couple of occasions I had to keep at least 2 phenos. Yes, some were better/more potent vs another, but they were also very very close.

I get where your coming from on the mark up but it’s not the care or overhead your paying for its the access. It cost just as much to care and clone some swag but your not going to charge the same as you would for some elite, it’s all about the access. And I’ll admit I’m greedy, somebody ask me how much I want for something I say as much as I can get but at the same time I’ll help somebody as much as I can too. I’ve bought cheap clones and I’ve bought expensive clones, but if I can spend a little more for the peace of mind of knowing I got the real deal I will. Folks selling clones are doing it for profit not charity and packing up elites and risking fines to ship across the country, they sure ain’t doing it for minimal gaines. Even those vendors charging 20 a cut have a minimum of 5 or more to make it worthwhile. Those nurseries in Cali ain’t shipping across the country and if they was those prices would be totally different than those over the counter prices.

I shall not sell my clones for top dollar !
Sell out ? why because i think your a dink for crying about how much real elite clones cost ? Not a clone from a pack of seeds i popped or just some dude popped but a breeders cut ? Granted i wish i had the ability to pop over 500 seeds of one breeders strain but i don't just like most people here i have limited time to waste on garbage genetics.

Is this going to stop me from hunting my own packs that is a big big negative i love hunting genetics it's like playing the lottery it's exciting when you hit but sucks when you don't and some of these packs cost anywhere from $60 to $350 on average so to say $250 to $500 is to much for Elite Breeding stock is Asinine! Once others figure out your cutting their throats i will find it hard to believe they will keep supplying you with said genetics but good luck with that let us know how you make out i'm sure you will:hug:

Yeah, forgive my Kushman Strawberry Cough cut the guy joe from down the block searched out. And then there is that fake sundae driver 19 I paid 18 for. Oooooooo and that Wedding Cake Jbeeezaaaaayy Cut, Kind of like gucci with more than two C's I guess. Garanimals, another one of those bottom strains. The Oakland Purps and Lemon Sherbert Grandiflora breeders cuts I just paid $16 a piece for. And can't forget the fake Super Lemon Haze Franco cut PCG is selling through Harborside for $16. Nope, not elites.... But people will sell you a purple punch for $200 on strainly, Fire!!! So how many times do I have to disprove all your reasoning again???

I am sure Harborside is going to put me on hold because they are upset with me....
