Rob, if that's true I'm gonna have to insist you take my address! Haha
Around here it's completely unreliable, nearly every time it's a different person.. Delays happen, as said, they've got lives and plans too! But I completely understand where you're coming from, that's everyday for me!
You prolly won't beleive this, but a half Oz here, (can sometime be good, but for the past 2 years been nothing but grit/wax) is €200! The norm is to get a 50 bag (1/8th) and split it (€25 for what's a 1/16th). And If I read that right, I could get a pound cheaper than a half Oz! That it rediculous!! I can't take how expensive it is here, it costs like €7.55 for a twenty pack of smokes too, so each blip is costing you nearly €7-8! What's that in dollars!? According to Xe.com it's $311 a half, that's pretty much 11 dollars a J!! If somebody sold everything half price, with a steady supply, they would get everybody in the country wanting some!
I just wanna cry after hearing those figures..
And the thing is, demand is there, I don't know how, with our recent economic boom a nice supply hasn't come flooding in (alongside the new members of the Eu - not presuming anything, just thought word would spread)!
When I see some of the grows on here, especially some of the high wattage or outdoor grows, I just see heaven, I mean there would be millions of euro in each harvest! (not suggesting anything!)
And as someone who smokes regularly (partly for relaxing, partly because of pains) I have made these observations over time, and just can't beleive how nothing's changed! I've been tempted to start a small grow, just something to keep my mind away the shams the roam the streets of my city! Even just enough to fill the gaps between getting ripped here. It's just so expensive to do anything here it's rediculous!
