SuperJames, I would like to buy from you at your prices!
People tell me that 1 lb of marijuana is worth about $1,000, which would make 20 lbs worth around $20,000. Wonder where the $97,000 figure came from...? Either way, the Feds should just legalize it and tax it heavily, like they do cigarettes, etc.
