Police Discover World's Most Expensive Marijuana

Wed, Jul 09, 2008 9:09 pm

more: headline news

Source: stopthedrugwar.org

During a routine traffic stop in Ohio, police discovered over 100 pounds of the most valuable marijuana ever documented:

Police curbed the gray, four-door Mercury Grand Marquis Ruci was driving after he allegedly committed a lane violation, the highway patrol statement indicated. A specially trained, narcotics-detecting dog was brought to the scene, and its reaction to the car signaled the presence of drugs, the statement said.

A search of the vehicle yielded 104 pounds of hydroponically-grown marijuana stuffed inside eight black plastic trash bags. Police said the marijuana had an estimated street sale value of more than $4.7 million. [Naperville Sun]

This is really an incredible discovery and I'm surprised it hasn’t generated more attention. At $4.7 million for 104 pounds, we're talking about an ounce that's worth $2824.51! That just blows away everything listed at High Times's market quotes section, where ounces of high-grade marijuana in Ohio last month were listed at $400. It also overwhelms the STRIDE data collected by drug enforcement officers showing that U.S. marijuana prices averaged around $200 per ounce as of 2003.

So far, I haven’t heard of anyone smoking this new type of marijuana, but that's probably because the police took it all.

*********

Ok, enough. In case you haven't figured it out yet, this marijuana isn't worth $4.7 million. The police maybe got a little carried away and reporters don't doublecheck their numbers on things like this. It's happened before.

The problem is the numbers are so far off here that it really takes the crime to a different level, an inaccurate one. They magnified the value by a factor of 10, roughly, if the smoker-submitted street prices at High Times are realistic (my guess is they're the most accurate numbers available). The Naperville Sun, The Toledo Blade, and local ABC News grabbed the story, with The Sun even rounding up in the headline, "Driver arrested with $5 million in pot". Ironically, the $300,000 they added for the headline is much closer to what it was actually worth. Police also stated that it was "hydroponically-grown," but they admitted not knowing where it came from, meaning they can't be sure how it was actually grown. Perhaps they just like to say "hydroponic," in which case they're certainly not alone.

Amidst the numerous tragedies and injustices caused by our nation's war on drugs, the tendency to exaggerate drug seizures is a minor one. But it's annoying, it happens a lot, and it might even have the unintended effect of encouraging people to think growing marijuana will make them a millionaire.

Action Alert: (Updated) Let's respond to this by contacting the papers that reported it and letting them know they've been pushing a false headline. Here are a few of them:

Cleveland Plain-Dealer: send a letter/comment here

ABC News send a letter/comment here

Toledo Blade send a letter/comment here.

Naperville Sun send a letter/comment here.

You can send more or less the same comment to each, but be sure to include the appropriate link for their coverage, so they know what you're referring to. And, of course, be brief, on topic, and polite.

Update 2: Fascinatingly, The Chicago Tribune has the story, but leaves out the claims that the marijuana was valued at $4.7 million. That was the headline elsewhere. Could it be that Chicago Tribune was suspicious of the numbers?

Im just amazed
, I used to live in largo, right outside tampa.
Down there I had connections in west palm beach, Miami, and texas with the occasion california
where I was dealing with straight up kinpin dealers that made 1/2 to a pound day deals of the best shyt you could ever imagen. After knowing friends or so called friends that died and even once calling in the "calvrey" to get somthing done. Two years ago on my bday, I got out of that shyt and focused on life, and moved to california, everyone I see comlains of legalizing green and saying its unfair not to. After reading how everyone here types their opinions, they should make it a felony, everyone here writes like their retarded and my uncle was by accident. You dumbasses don't even relize how good you have it already, and I talk from experience.

Thats bullshit...

In my area (philly burbs) pricing is as follows (this is for primo dank resin coated nugs only):

400-420 a z
100-120 a qaurter
50-60 an eighth.

As for it being too expensive, when you factor the time, effort, and expense involved to grow, harvest, and cure good organic nugs I think the price is right where it should be at.

Hello, I live in the United Kingdom and the prices of weed where I live are this.

�20 for 2.8 of standard stuff.
�20 for 1.6g of good stuff.

�75 for 1/2 oz and yes I mean 14.1g of standard.
�100-125 for 1/2 oz good stuff.

�140-160 for an oz of standard.
�220-260 for an oz of the nice stuff. :P

So that means, atm... 1.6g of good pot costs roughly $32, thats just over $70 for an 1/8th... Fucking expensive!

BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA. okay so heres my experience. 200 an o will get you solid weed. club ounces out here cost like that much. I visited a college outside of Austin Texas, and smoked there. They all had weed that was BROWN and made into a BRICK. NOT BUDS. so whoever said they get good ass chronic in Texas doesn't know ANYTHING about weed or has a more significant hook than the kids at UT.

HAPPY 420!!!

Apr 20 2010, 4:41 pm

Fuck paying 2900 an 0z. If that was accurate then that bud should potentially be able to make you overdose on THC which we all know is impossible so suck a dick highway patrol man. Happy 420 all my stoner brothers and sisters out there!!

Oh not to mension the fact that AMSTREDAM!!! isint in the states. You know, the place that is known for weed...why are Americans so dumb and closed minded... and who is selling ounces for 25?? Are you stupid or just are you just trying to sound cool?

D. The Chronnicc

Mar 29 2010, 7:53 pm

100$ for an ounce??? Are you dumb, lieing, or just dont know what you are talking about? You cant buy an oz for 100 Anywhere. Not unless your in Afghanistan or Jamaica.. Or unless its shitty bunk weed of corse. In Canada, Its CHEAP to find a oz at 150 let alone 100. Your dealer must be on rocks to sell an oz for 100.. Average price would be 175-200. Always. And its Alwaysssss good good shit. (H)(Y).

as far as I can see you all need a life agrueing about street price obviously its all going to be different depending on who you are, how much your getting, who your getting it from, where you live, and the quality.. hell I need a life just reading this nonesence. the point is yes the law enforcement over exaggerates street prices. to scary mommies and daddies.. so unless your paying 100 bucks a gram to even come close to the estimated price.. in conclusion, pigs are dumb, yu all are dumb for even fighting over this, and Im dumb just for replying to any of this bullshit. so street prices of marijuana are... *drum roll* DIFFERENT EVERYWHERE

Man ima make this short Ohio rocks and u don't wanna fuck wit us.

what IS a dime, really?

Jul 17 2008, 10:16 pm

around here, a dime means a gram or gram and a half if lucky, 10 bucks, or 20 bucks if it looks good, but still, only a gram, 3 grams is an "8th" for 25 or 30, 7 is a quarter, 14 is a half, basically we're paying $1 per each .1 of a gram, that sucks, it sucks bad, especially if the prices I'm hearing here are true, I thought that's how it was everywhere, those are the prices eveyone here's giving, exept now most people don't bother selling less than a quarter, so it's hard to buy anything. it's tough out here in MA. I believe there needs to be a standard agreed apon national price so we stop overpaying for regular bud. and why is slightly better bud twice the price? it doesn't get me twice as high, I still smoke as much as I would, even though they say I only need to smoke half as much, that is a MYTH! but im still paying 2 to 2and a half as much for good weed. 100 for a quarter? fuck that. plus it's usually just two 8ths in one bag, thats about 6 g's for 100! it's rediculus! either I'm moving to a new state when i can or vacationing somewhere so i can buy a bunch and sell it here, but i'd feel horrible about ripping people off the way i've been ripped off. plus i like this state otherwise. but damn i hate paying this much to smoke! FUck I'm so pissed off!

Oh yea and tis no government strain, most people thank washington state university, or university of mississippi. You really need to get your facts straight, you make yourself look stupid when you dont knw what you are talking about.

Jul 17 2008, 1:46 pm

dude ur fucking stupid 1.5 grams is 5 dollars or in other words 1 blunt. Two 1.5s is 3.0 or in other words a dime. But I am getting sold 3.4 for a dime. Our 15s are about 4.8 grams. A twenty is about about 6.4 grams. Our quarters are sold for twenty five dollars. Those are about 7.9 grams. A regular quarter here goes for 7.5 grams smart guy and guarntee mother fucker ur weed is not better than ours right now Im holding onto buds that are nothing but red and white hairs and is almost purple that's our MIDS and don't make me have to shut u up even more I'm about to get alot of g13 on the low prices. And if ur wondering wat g13 is its government experiamental weed. My friend on Chillicothe Ohio has a plant that is probabaly older than u. The plants have been cloned from the early 70s so u aren't smarter than me in the weed culture tell me this smart guy how do u clone a plant. And don't be a lame and try to look up the answer.

happy im not in ohio

Jul 16 2008, 3:41 pm

j-boy you're an idiot. 3.4 for $10 and a quarter(which is seven grams i dont care where you live)for $25. you are getting charged five bucks extra for that second eighth(or dime if you live in ohio i guess) dipshit.

Most of YOU out-of-staters' are smoking that schwagg, cheap compressed Stress grass. That's why YOU pay so cheap. Out here in the West Coast, Southern & Northern have it locked down with tha KUSH! I have been nothing but a Kush smoker for MANY years now & I wouldn't have it, any other way! I take this man sport seriously. Only the BEST! I get headaches with the REST. It only takes a little bit of the good stuff and it's the best in the WORLD! O.G. all the way. Maybe some Sour Hybrids, & fruity blends, Blackberry, oh yeah. I can't mess with 215 Clubs that don't know any better. On Venice Beach, there's a club that doesn't have wheelchair access & I am in a wheelchair. What kind of Medicinal place is that? Never will shop there.Some people really lie about caring about the DISABLED in this Business. Like some club I know in Long Beach that delivers. It went online because they got scared & I have been lied to about what I was ordering.Didn't get what was in the pictures! No more my friend.

Jul 15 2008, 2:05 pm

shit bro we get our blunts for five of course and their sold at 1.5 my dimes are at 3.4 grams and my quarters are sold for 25 to me. And out of the quarter I get five fat blunts. And my ounces are 100 so I get showed love by my fellow dealers. Hey if anyone lives in the franklin county of Columbus Ohio let me kno we can chill and smoke. O yeah this blunt here is for all my fellow smokers. Remember smoke friendly.

anonymous

Jul 15 2008, 1:10 am

if you look at the STRIDE table most of the ounces cost less if you just buy 28 straight individual grams, meaning you would lose money if you bought an ounce and dealt weed. How the fuck does that make sense?

Stoger Ohio

Jul 14 2008, 9:58 pm

yeah like my dude jboy was saying Ohio is the shit. We get all the hookups and have that good shit. We have the shit that that makes ur mind blow. I'm not dissin any other cities because were all in this and love to smoke but can't nobody dis Ohio . We have most the big highways so we get most the drugs coming through Ohio. Right now I have a kick ass dealer who hooks me up, shows alot of love, and gives us low prices for his major red imbedded buds. And something else the best cigarette to smoke after a blunt is a Newport shout out to Newports. But all I'm trying to say is smoke, live life, and stay. And another shoutout to Todd Butler R.I.P. So whoever reads this enjoy ur next blunt because it could be ur last ( and no pot heads I'm not a cop) just brother trying to smoke.

this is funny

Jul 12 2008, 8:39 pm

It's like im reading a bunch of tourist brochures talking about where the best bud is, comparing prices and names and whatnot. all I know is here in massachusetts we are paying too much for too little, $10 and 20 dimes that r stemmy as hell, or 40 an 8th for ok stuff, or 50 - 65 an 8th for "good" stuff like fruity loops, if it's around, or getting a gram of crap for 10, its always a choice between 10 a gram of shit, or double or even triple that for ok stuff, it's rediculus. someone needs to spread the good stuff to states in need at fair prices, or tell someone that it's not supposed to cost that much.

myface is numb

Jul 12 2008, 7:25 pm

alright im from az/cali and cali has the best bud no doubt. go to a medshop i dont know which one but look around for nepalese kush. haha seriously that will make you shit your pants. and as for az we get most of our bud from cali so what the hell do you want from me. phx 20g 55eighth 100q 160h 300z

Just goes to show you what the Ohio PD really know...jack shit...hahaha.

Who in their right mind would dump a months work for an Oz?
That also gives you an indication of why the prices have been going throw the roof on our smoke.

Anyone care to figure just how much a small garden will cost on an average monthly basis and then how much time one would spend in a month in the garden.

Let's say you grow 10 plants at 1lb per plant.

Now tell me why are we paying so high a price, strenght is great but the high lasts 3hrs tops.
Why not grow some that would knock you back 5-6hrs like the old Columbian Gold or Red Bud.

But hey that's me and I would rather grow my own.

Jeremy

Jul 10 2008, 8:49 am

i live about 15 min from where it happened, and no shit in toledo I've seen it up to 100 dollars an 8th. My guess wass he could only afford to sell an 8th at a time b/c they sell alot of ten sacs. not bad weed but not worth it. Around here we get ours from colombus, and pay 50- 60 and 8th. and for the cops going and saying it cost that much. They way they had to do the math is taking average price for an 8th and average price for a gram. they did the math on both then found the average between them. Cause at 20 a gram all that weight is bout 7 mill, but a 50 an 8th is only 470,000. they used a little different numbers tho, cause that gets 4 mill. sry for long post, but im bored and high

yeah man jay$in is right... the herb out here in vegas, for, lets say some purps, is roughly $60 an eighth, which is fukkin taxin, but even at $60 an eighth, 106 pounds of any kind of weed is not worth 4 million or whatever the cops said it was worth

They probably did the math by the gram. where a gram of some killer is like $25-$30. You can do the math, I don't care to. Just another example of the shitstem in action.

Mr. Waters

Jul 10 2008, 1:27 am

either way yall are arguing over numbers when what really matters is they took the good shit off the streets. if only the government would take action and legalize it our economy would be boosting out the ass. so arguing over the "street" prices is dumb. we the smoking "culture" (as they would call it) need to find a way to make our politicians realize that marijuana is america's way into the golden age.

umm

Jul 10 2008, 12:58 am

When they legalize it, it will be free, or maybe a dollar an ounce. The point is that prohibition makes all contraband expensive, which feeds the gangs. Anyone see the irony?

Jul 10 2008, 12:11 am

ITz more expensive when they only sell by quarters lyk if u by an o u spend 400 but if they charge 120 for a quarter n ounce is 480 so maybe datz wut he meant daz wut pplz do over here they only sell quarters.

Jul 10 2008, 12:05 am

Holy shit Brett,you suck at math.You were trying to say its more expensive when u buy less quanity,such as 1/8ths.Why would you multiply the total number of ounces by 8,youre just adding more weight that doesnt exist and multiplying it by 35 bucks an 1/8th.Dumbass.All the fuzz wants to do is make it seem like a crazy/huge seizure of high grade shit."The bigger the bust,the bigger the boost."

Jul 9 2008, 11:46 pm

Actually the cops were right. Someone dealing this could and would make that money. They are talking about distribution prices. Not wholesale prices. So before you make yourself look dumb let a G tell you how they did there math. 16 ounces in a pound times 104 pounds. 16 x 104 =1664. Not done. 1664 ounces x 8 eights in an ounce. 1664 x 8 = 13312. 13312 eights times 35$ an eighth. 13312 x 35 = 465920. They are pretty accurate if you look at it from a dealers point of view if you sold every single thing in eights and not smoke any witch you probably have more of a chance getting hit by a train, stuck by lighting and playing the guitar all at same time. The truth is the cops over exatuarate so email the news companies why they do that, not that there wrong. Stay high till you die. Peace

Scary! But, pretty well every newspaper article I've read about seizure has an unbelievable street value equated with what was seized, whether it be marijuana or other substances. The point being to scare us all! My point being, don't let the fear mongering in our media work!
