My "smoking buddy" from college has been in Portland for about 5 years now and the deals he's told me about since legalization are just ridiculous. $80/oz for first-time customers. Regular deals at $5/g or $10 for an eighth. It was even crazier deals before the state started collecting tax on it.
For comparison, in the Midwest USA an ounce can be had for ~$250 and smaller quantities are typically between $10-$20/g, depending on quality.
Quality is on par with what's available on the street in the Midwest which, from my understanding, is generally being exported from Colorado and California.
My expectation from this is to see Oregon now turn its attention to other states and convince them to go legal so it can offload its product and, if it moves fast, establish dominance in those other states. Is this happening?

OREGON: Challenge accepted.
