A new website called Price of Weed.com asks the question: What is Marijuana really worth?

From their mission statement:

We want to crowdsource the street value of marijuana from the most accurate source possible: you, the consumer. Help by annonymously submitting data on the latest transaction you’ve made.

It’s simple: you, the public, go on the site, select the area you live in and report the amount you paid for your herb and rate its quality.

The site says that it costs roughly $420 an ounce for top shelf herb in Los Angeles. I think that seems about right, although it reports the same for New York City where truly high quality cannabis—the kind more common than not on the west coast I might add—costs closer to $600 an ounce. Our friends in the Pacific Northwest get the best deals. In Portland and Seattle, high quality pot sells for just $250 an ounce.

It may be rainy up there, but at least you can be unemployed and still afford good weed. That’s important these days.
