What price does the black market sell at? 

Look kirk its never going to wipe out the BM completely -atleast not for 15 years- the alcohol BM when prohibition ended took 7 yrs to make a dent in illegal bootlegging sales.experts expect MJ to take twice as long. So roughly 15 years to put the squeeze on em. By this time confectonary stores will carry some form of infused thc products.it will be a part of mainstream society .

As far as pricing its all about the end user-the "half bag" nickle bag buyers. In order for somebody to buy a pound  or pounds and break it down you need those half bag buyers to eventually down the line move the product...without these guys there are no pound buyers .

blackmarket you can buy a half=3.5 grams for anywhere from 25-40 bucks canadian ...**not per pound price ,this is the end user cost .

Dispensary= 8-10 bucks maybe 12 with taxes ..

3.5x10=35 dollars for 3.5 grams

now mind you you have taxes etc with dispensary prices so lets say 40-45 for a half 3.5 G from dispensary ,maybe top notch 50...
verses on average 30BM and top notch quads 40BM..


in conclusion kirk i feel for many years to come it will be split 50/50 until us older guys are gone and millenials and generation Z only know one way to pickup and thats at the corner store, or near buy dispensary- afterall they say edibles, beverages , and extracts will be majority of the Revenue for these companies .
For me personally i dont mind buying BM for flower but i certainly prefer a company shatter over BM and 100% i prefer an edible from a dispensary or online.one that has been tested for quality and consistancy .
