I find no problem with some one paying 100.
The buyer probably felt like he got a great deal as they're paying 150 a quarter oz up North.
As long as the visitor went home happy....so what?
They didn't spend your money!

A $150 1/4 Oz? I can get a full Oz for that, if not cheaper, at home! $200 an oz for stuff I'd put up against any "high grade" or "medical" they're growing on the island. Prices are dropping because of legalization. There's a lot of legally grown decent domestic product being illegally dumped on the streets, lowering prices.
The legal market is too tightly regulated and more importantly, too small so prices remain artificially inflated. Imagine what would happen if every liquor store only sold a couple of the most expensive top shelf brands? The average "Joe" in the legal states are not getting their stash at a dispensary. Dispensaries are very much "boutique operations" at this point.
I corrected my friend when he said "ah man I got ripped off!". I reminded him he got what he agreed to pay for so nobody ripped him off. He agreed on the price. He didn't have to buy it.
I got the impression they didn't enjoy their trip and won't be back. Some people just don't know how to deal with hustling...which is their own fault, but it's sad because here's another group that won't likely return.

Florida is pretty tight and the risk vs reward is pretty high. $100 is not bad if you get some high grade. MMJ all started in California 20 years ago and you are still looking at $80-100 1/4 these days for solid organic tested bud. Of course you can go cheaper, but who knows what mold is on it as well as what chemicals were used.
I look forward to legalization and tight controls just to protect the end user.
