Fake account, but I wanted to say that I think Marijuana has been $10/gram for as long as I can remember. People do alter price based on different parameters, but $10/gram has been a long standing unacknowledged truth.

I think the weight may vary depending on the cost of production/risk but it gets sold at the same price.

The idea of paying $10.50 for something like that due to inflation does seem a bit strange :)
