Quality: Most of this pot is the standard stuff....not light, but not dark green, and usually takes about 3 good bong hits to be stoned for a while... * Light green fluffy stuff: $170 an ounce, or $50 a quarter ounce. Acid: When available, $5 a hit, $7 to $10 to the younger people. Date: June '94 Location: Fairhope Pot: $400/quarter-pound, sometimes a pound for $1200 or so... Acid: $5/hit. Easier to get than in Birmingham Shrooms: "So plentiful that there is no market...everyone goes and gets them themselves...you can pick 2 or 3 pounds of them by yourself in an hour or so, if you go to one of the better fields..." State: Alaska Location: Valdez Date: December '94 Weed: (1/8ths; Increase price about $30-50 for a 1/4, depending on quality) * about $40 for some good alaskan weed from the Mat-Su Valley in the summer. * About $40 for just about anything in the winter. maybe 30-35$ for Mexican weed. Rock (Crack): about 100-120 for a gram. Sometimes as low as 75$. Acid: about 4 bucks a hit. Hits are usually good quality. Quantity is usually scarce though. Shrooms: about 30 to 50$ a quarter. but prices are always changing dramatically. Note: The above are street prices. On the street service usually sucks as far as waiting is concerned. (pay now, get goods in a few minutes policy sometimes) Prices change dramatically considering quality for everything when winter hits. Change minorly about every two months. Acid and shrooms are available only if you yourself have connections. The stuff _rarely_ hits the streets. Same with coke and rock. in the winter, it never hits the streets. State: Arizona Location: Dead Concert, Buckeye Lake Date: June 11, 1993 Marijuana: $25/eighth, $45/quarter. Good quality. Color: Light to middle green Location: Phoenix Date: June '94 Weed: $250-300/ 1/4 lb, $750/lb. Dark green with very small buds, none bigger then about 1 inch in length. The smoke is mild, with a quick reponse. High ranges from intense with visions to mild and depressed. Appears to be a strain of indica and stavia mixed, or perhaps its the fruits of a stavia and indica harvest mixed together. Supposedly a import from South America. * Mexican Weed: $5.00/gram, $15.00 1/8th oz, $25.00 1/4 oz, $40.00 1/2 oz, $75.00 1 oz, $160.00 1/4 LB, $300.00 1/2 LB, $500.00 1 LB, $8000/20 kilo.

It's actually better than what the name says. I got really worked on this stuff. * Green: $50/eigth. This had some really KIND bud in it- juicy and thick. The smell was wonderful, and you can get pretty high after three bong hits. Unfortunetly kind of expensive for me. LSD: $5 a hit, or about $3 if you buy a lot of it. Quality is unknown. Mushrooms: $20 for an eight, about enough for 2 people. Quality also unknown. -Everything else is pretty hard to find. Actually, shrooms and not pot are the most common and easy-to-get drug around here. Location: Los Angeles area [August '93] 2C-B: $10-15 per hit; $5-7 for >100 Crystal Meth: $20-25 1/4 gram [4th source, March '94] Weed: Mex: $20/eigth on the street, $60/ounce from most Mexicans 'Ganje' Killer dope $60/eighth for *fat* eights. Might be $50-55 for slightly lesser grade. $320/oz if you can find the right person. "Best Weed Santa Barbara has ever seen!" High Times quote) Hash: not too bad quality, ~30/quarter. LSD Hits/Shrooms: Very hard to find, but average prices ($3-5 'cid, $20/eight shrooms). Opium: Be real careful here. There is some shit going around that smells like Jasmine. I think it's that Black Opium insence found in the back of HT. It's $20/eighth, but don't waste your money. *Everything above except for the Kind prices are from around the Venice beach area. The 'ganje' I've only been able to find up in Santa Barbara, but it's well worth the trip. [5th source, November '94] Ecstacy: $20/hit (bought in LA, sellers' market) [January '95] Shrooms: 1/8th $20-30, depending on quality and availability. About half an 1/8th will generally do.

Full, big, mature buds (Some weigh in at 15+ grams each) good smell, great high. Good availibility. $60 3.5 grams $425 1 oz. - Green Bud #2: Dark green nuggets. Very dense and squishy. Intoxicating aroma. Burns well due to moisture content (not too dry, not too wet). This is the one hit shit. It comes around twice a year from Humboldt County. Very hard to find, rarely available in quantities. $55 3.0 grams $400 1 oz. (If you can find someone who can keep this much around) - Brown Mexican Bud #1: Shitty, shitty, shitty. It looks shitty, smells shitty, and tastes like burnt dirt. A friend found a rusty screw in a 1/4 lb. sack. $20 3.5 grams $150 1 oz. $500 1/4 lb. $1700 lb. State: Colorado Location: Boulder Marijuana: [October '94] Pot: Green Bud; Weld County Grown "Oglebud". Same as last year fewer seeds, skunk aroma, Northern lights strain. Good high 2 hits. $3500+ lb. Shrooms: right from the source. Nederland CO $4500 / 10 lbs distributor price.

Availability somewhat better than lsd Heroine (black tar only, no china white powder): $15-20 for a small piece 1/20 to 1/30 of a gram, $120-180 for a half gram. Availability is good but must be bought on the street. [December '93] Marijuana: Good red hair commercial mexican- $90/OZ, $900/5 pounds [March '94] MJ: 750-1000/pound for commercial mex. to get below $900 you need to know an importer, preferably a mexican insider. A friend got a pound for $650, but it was moldy and didn't smell too good. Still stony though. State: Delaware Location: Newark Date: July 24th '93 Alcohol: $1.75 domestics, $2.75 imports, $1.75+ mixed drinks. in a bar Marijuana: $45-55/quarter, decent stuff, good availability LSD: $4/hit; Recent brands: Snowmen, plain grey blotter; Availability: fair MDMA: $20-25/hit "variable, but usually good" Cocaine: $80/gram last summer for pretty good stuff, I don't keep track of coke prices because I don't buy it very often. Note- "Just about anything is available here, nobody seems to have any trouble finding weed, hash, LSD, speed, coke or crack. MDMA availability seems to be highly correlated with certain parties where there is little or no beer and many weird looking people dancing all night that happen about once or twice a month. Shrooms, microdots that are alledgedly mescaline (but more likely one of its more potent analogues), ketamine, PCP, heroin and various pharmacuticals are all available but if you don't know the right people it might take a week or two to find them. State: Florida Location: Daytona Beach [April '94] Pot: 120-1OZ 60$-1/2 40$-1/4 20-1/8. Sometimes good sometimes not so bad. Locally grown: 5$ a oz, Really shitty but 2 jays get ya there Date: August '93 Location: Gainesville Pot - $40 / quarter ounce LSD - $5 a hit. Just starting to trickle back in after a 6 month drought. Nexus - $25 / capsule. Only place I know of to get it is a head shop. Shrooms - "still haven't seen them, only know of one person who has this summer." Location: Miami [Early 1993] LSD: hits $5 each; sheets $135 (white THICK blotter) [November '94] MDMA: "Seems to be on the upswing in Miami, FL. Waffers (previously mentioned) are going for about $20 each. This is most likely due to their sheer abundance. Also, some funky lab synthesized what they call "Red Turbos". These look little tiny, little, red Advil pills. Rummors claim that they are very clean (chemically. Few impurities and by-products) and leave you no hang-over what-so-ever! Some people claim that they contain both MDMA and MDA." -Note: Some people claim that MDEA (Eve) is surfacing in North Florida, but as of now it seems to be just another rumour. [January '95] MDMA: * Waffers are going for about $25 / tablet. Discount prices are usually $200 / 10 waffers, or if you deal (or have the money I guess) $510 / 30 rolls. No real complaints on quality, except for some unfortunate souls who seem to have bough MDEA instead of MDMA. Nothing really wrong with the Eve, except that if you buy Adam, you expect Adam, not Eve! * New MDMA tablets have surfaced (rumours claim that they are from Germany, as of now it's still a rumour) that have the word "ADAM" printed on both sides of the tablet. Excellent quality. Prices range between $25 - $30. Slightly longer trip length with standard strength. Notes: Availability is very, very, very high. MDEA is definitely surfacing in Miami, most of the times masked as MDMA. Prices are usually the same, except that the pills are pure white -- no brown specs in them at all. Slightly smaller in diameter, and the groove along the middle is not as deep as in MDMA waffers. Notice I've made these observations under very close scrutiny. I doubt if you could do the same with your neighborhood supplier. Location: Sarasota Date: November '94 Cannabis: $30-40 1/4 ounce. Decent import available. LSD: $5 a hit. "White Blotter and Beavis butthead triple-dip" Shrooms "It's rain season, get 'em while the getting's good FREE" Location: Tallahassee [January '95] Marijuana: $35-$45 a quarter, good quality. LSD: $5/hit N2O: $10/hit Mescaline: price unknown but readily available Heroin: $150/half a gram, good china white. Shrooms: $25/eigth, somewhat rare, not too hard to get. Cocaine: $150/gram $40/quarter gram. Location: Venice Date: November '94 Hydro: 1/4 $40-$50. Beautiful buds, some shake, lots of red hairs and crystals, two or three tokes = StOnEaLiTy! Expensive, but worth it. BIG BAGS! LSD: $100 1/4 sheet. Only large quantities available. B&B Triple Dip, Sonic, Felix, Felix on the Moon. Expensive, but, when you're desperate.. Shrooms: "The Psilocybin Gods Have Spoken! Let it Rain! FREE!" -Note: "Following a recent raid in Venice, FL, marijuana, and even worse, LSD, have been very hard to find. However, people are starting to calm down, and availability is improving on Marijuana." Location: West Palm Beach [January '95] Marijuana: * Green Mexican. Sometimes lose, sometimes brickweed.

Most is not as good but same price is charged. $50-65 an 1/8th, $90-125 a 1/4. Gotta be better connected to get it regularly. * On the street: "Nics" (Nickle bags) containing .5 to 1.5 grams of anything from medicore mexian brown, to good green jamacian ganja can be bought from from black dealers or "weed holes" the mariajuana equivalent of a Crack house, for $5. LSD: Blotter acid. $5 a dose. most are weak 50-100ug. Some hits 250ug +. Avalibility inconsistent, demand always greatly exceeeds supply. Need more of it! P. Cubenesis Mushrooms: grow plentifully in cow fields all west of town and especially Martin county. Pick all you want, don't get caught! *FREE* MDMA: Wafers and Gelcaps available around clubs, etc. Harder to get. $25-30 Cocaine: Available fairly widely. $60-100 a gram.

Very nice, and relatively common. $10 will get you a little over a sixteenth of an ounce. [Hyde Park, December '94] Marijuana: small, tight light green buds. Unusual smell---indica, perhaps?

From the sources I've seen, bags are mostly buds, very little shake. Buds are full of red hairs and have a strong, green odor, usually around 2-3 inches long. General rule is to get it when shipments first come in, and you'll end up with the longer buds with very few seeds, but a few big stems. Very intense high, 1 or two bong hits will send you flying, a couple bongloads will knock you on your ass. LSD: $5-6 Everyone says it takes a couple hits to work Shrooms: $35 for an 1/8 oz., but I haven't seen 'em. Pretty rare. [They really depend on how well you know the source, and availability.

GREAT SHIT!!! $200 (well worth it!!!!!) Lsd: blotter is $5 a hit and worth it. 2 will get you fucked for 9-10 hours. at raves: ok shit for $3 a hit. wouldn't reccomend it.

Once FOAF got a quarter oz. of crappy seedy, shaky ditchweed for only $40. $90 can get somebody a half oz with lots of shake but also huge kind buds. Shrooms: $30/eighth for shrooms of varying quality. (About one use in three will make for an excellent trip) State: Texas Location: Austin Date: April '94 Marijuana: * Commercial Mexican: $25/quarter. Bricked, *very* dry, seedy. Greener than other recent batches, fewer red/orange hairs. Harsh smoke, lots of cough. High is somewhat shallow, but has a decent duration. * Commercial Mexican: $25/quarter. Same source as above, but much lighter green, damper. Better, smoother toke, fewer seeds and stems. Stonier. * G9: $90/qtr from the grower, $100+/qtr further down the line. This is supposedly a (Northern Lights x Skunk #1) x (a whole slew of hybrids). Whatever it is, it's the most potent smoke I've ever encountered in my life. Let me repeat that. In my life. It looks like a vivid green and red thai stick, with very little of the white crystalization seen on some of the other Kind in town. The sticks are approximately 1 inch wide, and about 1/2 inch thick. A .25 inch slice from a bud, cut into 4 pieces, will absolutely fry a half-dozen people. Frighteningly good. * Afghani Hash Plant: $100/quarter. Beautiful buds, a little loose. Leaves (when dried) are a lighter green than I'd expected from an Afghani, with whitish tints in some places, interspresed with brilliant shoots of deep red and orange. Very energetic, spacey high. * Green Spirit (Big Bud x Skunk #1): $90/quarter. Intense smell from the skunk, the dried bud looks like it's been dipped in a sugar glaze there's so much resin dried on it. High is very spacy, long-lasting (4-6 hours from 1 bowl) and good to groove on. Still around from last time (when I in- correctly identified it as Green Vision. I blame the drugs :-). * Local Skunk Bud, misidentified last time as Jamaican: $75/quarter. This was grown outdoors locally (allegedly 300+ lbs.). Big fat nuggets of smooth green smoke, a bargain at the price, especially considering that it is moderately-seeded. Lots of people are starting gardens from this stuff. The high is medium duration, but very strong and mellow. If the seeded bud is this potent, I can't wait to try some of the Sinse from it... * Reputable friends have reported seeing unharvested Hindu Kush #3, Northern Lights #2, Thai Skunk (Thai x Skunk #1), (Haze x Skunk #1), Skunk #1 and 4-Way (Skunk x NL x NL x Skunk). It sounds like upcoming months will be Kind indeed here at the home of the the Armadillo.
