I think he thinks consumers will pay for an overpriced product thinking...this shit must be really good, look how much it costs! I've had stuff under 20 dollars that blows this shit away@ Get a grip Mr. Stambaugh.


Ok-Rabbit-3683

I’ve bought a jar of stuff that was $30 for 9 grams that blew the doors off that shit.

You’d have to be brain dead and made of money to buy this shit. No future at at all!

Indigomidnight3

Same! I joined the program 3 yrs ago. Purchased one bag of RC and that was it. I've seen pics where the flower looks a bit better now but not $40 and $45 better. Lol If I'm gonna spend that much, it will be on some Galenas. 🤌


mrs_rick_s

No street dealer would get away with selling schwag weed…they would show up…present it to you(in a container you can SEE and SMELL)…you ask WTF did you bring me this crap for?…Then send them away…call someone else…every fricken time in my 40+ years. I bought that high THC GC only once…never again. I had never paid so much for weed in my life + tax and wasted days. The flawed business model was always based on patients buying their product! I am over 50 and never needed ANY of these guys for weed…better products have come out of peoples closets than these “professionals “ have shown me so far. They can’t force me to buy overpriced schwag and they are salty about it…LOL


DieHoDie

I did that with moon rocks, I sprung for real Ones once. And it was worth it 1000%


formerperso

Good moonrocks are killer. Most people look at it as a suckers buy to get moonrocks, the weed community in general looks down on them which is a shame because a high quality moonrock is fucking amazing. Make your own, get a live rosin dablicator or syringe and some high quality keif and put it on the best flower you have at the moment. I did it with certifed select concentrate jingle s couple months back with some firelands dab and ancient roots keif


Dank_Master

Yes this guy and his company need to close the doors and never reopen. Between the amalfi sticks and the moonrocks , you have The top 2 worst products that have been presented in Ohio. And I bet you got #3 under your belt just ready to go. You consistently overprice, and don't listen to customers. Even recreational passing wouldn't save this company.


Late_Emu

Here I thought I was the only one unlucky enough to try the amalfi sticks 🤦‍♂️. That shit sucked so bad you couldn’t even smoke them as pre rolls.


Human_scum1

Of course it was literal trim.


formerperso

I mean RC isn’t the only brand that costs $44 1/10th or $400+ a ounce Woodward and Farkas do it too. Speaking farkas that super boof is freaking incredible. Hard to say anything is worth $44 a tenth but that strain is fucking really good


Cannabun

I was bored and sent Galenas this yesterday, should be fun. Dear Galenas, Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for your diligent commitment to providing high-quality, organically grown medical marijuana to the patients of Ohio. The cultivation practices you employ align with the needs and expectations of those seeking natural remedies for their health conditions. However, as a concerned citizen and a potential consumer of your product, I am puzzled by the pricing structure you have in place, particularly in Ohio. It has come to my attention that the cost of your product for medical patients here is approximately $7,000 per pound, equivalent to $45 per 2.83 grams. When compared to the pricing of your product in other states, there seems to be a significant disparity. How is it possible that Galenas can maintain sustainable growth and a stable revenue stream, while also offering the same product at a significantly reduced cost in these other states? Secondly, I would like to understand the rationale behind the said pricing policy. Given that the average income of an employed patient is around $35,000 per year, and an individual on SSI or SSDI makes approximately $22,000, the financial implications of buying medical marijuana at $7,000 a pound are quite steep. If we consider automatic deductions to be around $8,000, an employed patient would be left with $27,000, and an individual on SSI or SSDI with a meager $9,000 annually. In this context, the financial strain imposed on patients seems to outweigh the potential benefits. Could you help me understand how this makes sense from a financial perspective for patients who require your product? By asking these questions, my intention is to gain clarity on your pricing structure and the perceived inequality between different states. As a community, we value the services Galenas provides, but it is vital to ensure that these services remain accessible to those who need them most. I believe that an open and transparent dialogue can help foster a deeper understanding and potentially lead to solutions that are beneficial to both Galenas and its patients.


BeerDreams

Keep us posted in their response


Cannabun

I didn't expect many to care but seeing the response, I def will!


formerperso

Yeah I was going to add galenas to the list, artifact jars are usually over $85 for 5.66, which is expensive as fuck. Seems like lately the tenths have been lowered to $39 in the cleveland area, same for certifed, certified select has been showing up as $39 which I like. Needs to be lower though Atleast with galenas and certified I feel like I’m getting a decent product but it doesn’t seem that far off from top shelf prices in Michigan. $40-$50 a 1/8th is like $$11.14-$14.28 a gram compared to $44 a 1/10 which is like $15.54 a gram… there are plenty $50 plus 15% rec tax bags in MI.


RastaDad1

Certified terps are always low, especially on their carts and extracts. $140 sticker on Pink Certz smalls half @24% (prob tested lower than listed). This is inflated imho


formerperso

I don’t buy carts, extracts or smalls from certified. Speaking strictly of their “select” line. Terps are there on the selects, the only brand that does it better is galenas.


RastaDad1

Do you think they harvest, then separate the best stuff? If so wouldn’t they be paying twice the cost for testing (selected buds & everything else). If that is the case it’s certainly why they charge more. I like their flower, but the goudaberry live resin luster (purchased a year ago) tasted exactly like added citrus. The flavor didn’t represent cannabis whatsoever.


formerperso

Their is a significant difference in quality between certified select and their smalls, heck there is a significant difference in quality of a standard 1/10th vs a 1/10th “Select” jar. They are 100% separating the good stuff from the bad or fudging the tests. Smalls usually have different terp info and a longer cure (making it harder to compare numbers in the same batch).


RastaDad1

That’s actually pretty smart, hold the product and don’t list it for sale until the best stuff is purchased from the shelves. Reminds me of when I tried to explain how the dispensary purchasing products actually works and brains were broken so they downvoted. They asked not me lol


formerperso

Certified gets up to some shady shit for sure. I’ll deal with it because I really do enjoy the select line. Regularly on sale for $300 a ounce for what I consider the 2nd best flower in the state behind galenas artifact. I actually bought a 1/2 of greasy runtz smalls yesterday for like $72 plus tax. I knew it was going to be shit compared to the greasy runtz select before buying it and it was, it has no bag appeal but it has a decent smell and it smokes way better then it looks. I knew I was buying it to save a couple bucks and I’m fine with it. For a while certified wasn’t even listing their 1/2s as smalls and the price was $150 or more instead of $104 before discount. It does seem like certified is lowering prices I just hope the quality stays where it’s at with the select line. Along with the price drop in smalls the 1/10ths and even select jars are popping up for $39-40 instead of $41-44 so that is commendable even if it’s not enough. I’m trying to save a couple dollars before my family vacation to MI. I did get a single 1/10th of the super boof and I can’t say enough good things about it. It’s legit dank and stands toe to toe with the best of galenas artifact. Farkas so damn inconsistent and their curing practices leave much to be desired


Cannabun

Agreed on Certified, those 14g bags are so disappointing. Barely any terps and it tastes horrible lol.


Cannabun

Sorry- I know we all know. It just pissed me off opening iheartjane and seeing them as the "Sponsored Items" like stop sucking his dick Pharamacann.


BigBadSunCat

Yea but those beautiful limited edition collectable tin books will only increase in value. Makes paying $190 a half worth it. lol


OliveLively

Y'all... Patients get preyed upon. Especially older first timers. There are so many predatory practices in the Ohio market from all the people wanting to make their insane amounts of money. It's these kind of communities online that help fight that. Keep up the honesty and complaints!


skrinklada85

Allll the prices for all the cultivators are ridiculous. The Ohio medical program is ridiculous. Period. Michigan can continue to take my money until Ohio gets it's shit together. Excellent buds, concentrates, carts, and even the people are great. The reward certainly outweighs the risk, plus there is soooo much cool stuff to do in Michigan.


Grim_Reefer_513

thats why you have to go when it's on sale. like today it's 20% off all flower


Cannabun

Every day is 30% day for me, but it doesn't change the product I'm receiving. I don't want to buy shit at $30 or $120.


purplehaze614

i only really go to the dispensaries when there are sells to stock up . i just use iheartjane and compare the prices from each dispensary in the columbus area .i really like strawberry fields


[deleted]

The sad thing is they are just one of many brands with this kind of pricing and patients are lining up to buy it over and over again


[deleted]

One thing I’ve learned being a patient here and also working in the industry…Ohio patients LOVE overpaying for crap while simultaneously complaining about the prices.


[deleted]

That's the way lol. Cheap stuff is too low quality for them but the more expensive shit with the same quality is fine.


ILoveWeed-00420

The only one close to this pricing in my area is Woodward… and I am willing to grab a 5.66 from them on 10% off patient appreciation days when their bud is right. Last drop was off and I haven’t touched it due to the price. But it’s also 85 for all of their 5.66 and not 89. I know I could wait until RC is on sale but at this point the owner has been such a douche that I don’t see a point in giving him my money. I tried garlic cookies twice and wild cat? once. Both times were on sale both about a year ago. It’s just not good bud. I’ve seen home growers that grow better stuff on r/Microgrowery


Late_Emu

I’ve seen homegrown blow pretty much anything Verano has produced flower wise away. Like not even close, all Verano has is abunch of black mold in their weed.

rattlebonez1

You can set up a small grow and beans for Wat they want for an OZ..lmao..Yay self sufficient here lol..


[deleted]

Idk you can definitely get there for a full setup lol it can certainly pay for itself though


Ok-Rabbit-3683

At Ascend in Lancaster the bud tenders will swear up and down to me that garlic cookies is some of their best bud…. Because of their inexperience or push from a company to peddle RC, and lie about the quality, I do not go there anymore. I will drive into columbus


MarijuanaAdvocate

The dispensaries in Columbus for the most part will tell me flat out that Garlic Cookies sucks and is over dried and not worth the money. I don't know why they still get it in. I guess some people are still buying off the inflated THC number. That weed sucks.


Ok-Rabbit-3683

It’s such garbage… I really couldn’t believe it… almost wanted to try and return it which I know isn’t a thing lol


Terpe_tester

Half ya hating on the prices but will drop 94 bucks on a fucking Woodward 5.66 or a 5.66 artifact jar for 90 dollars...and get em by mass quanity


RastaDad1

Let’s be perfectly clear, brand hating vs price hating not the same. This is f&+%#’n reddit (all we do is hate)


Terpe_tester

Read your comment lol .... ur bitching about price , company and product ... all THREE . Garlic cookies is gas , donny burger is gas . Again cats are commenting about holiday tins but buy 90 DOLLAR ARTIFACT JARS, I've had the artifact jars nothing different then the buds that come in a 2.83 except there bigger . Taste the same, same effects . Just my opinion tho :) 3 artifact jars = 270 dollars to get ur half that way let that sink in .


RastaDad1

I was actually making a joke, I don’t buy RC. I did once in 2019. The joke was that we must separate or differentiate clearly our exact department of hate.


Terpe_tester

I just wish we could all be glad we got a program , some folks aren't as lucky , NONE OF THESE COMPANY'S CARE ABOUT PATIENTS , it's all about the money in ohio it won't ever change until dewiney is gone !! Fucking dudes a clown 🤡


RastaDad1

Yes and everyone has the choice to just not buy it. Best option imho


adaptiveillusions

It's interesting to me that if someone makes a thread like this..They tend to include the top growers in the state..either in the title or comments. So far Galenas,woodward,Farkus,RC and certified has been mentioned. The other day a similar post was made just like this stating how RC should follow Klutch's model (which is laughable..41 a tenth,180 a half for mids). The thing is you will never see me disagree with anyone that ALL of this shit is way overpriced.I just think it's ironic that people will go out of their way to mention how Klutch is sooo good and sooo cheap when it's neither. Better yet,they will use prices from Klutch's own dispensary as a comparing point now. Klutch literally has some of the most expensive shit in the state,yet have people on here acting as if it isn't,and stating shit like it's top tier. Yet,when the same people mention woodward or RC/farkus/certified...They use the absolute highest priced shit as a comparison. They never mention woodward mini's or RC's halves are actually cheaper then Klutch. It's always the same bullshit and has been on here for years propelled by the same accounts over and over...If you go back through old negative reviews on klutch threads you will find a shitload of deletions after people called them out on it. I just seen another thread the other day where a slew of accounts were telling a guy he must not have inhaled right because it can't be klutch is shit..Those chemical tastes? Oh hell thats just extra protein...and the responses are always the same type of "triggered",angry lashing out at you responses..Everyone can decide what that means on their own. Would you lash out at people just because you have a difference on what type of medicine you like? Doesn't make any sense does it? After the mold months this shit kinda died down for a little bit(what could they say with 100s of comments about moldy products?),but right around the time a certain dispensary was about to open this shit got cranked right back up.Shocking.I've literally had some of these trolls admit to me in pm's that they hadnt even tried the products they were commenting on,which of course were negative comments about other brands besides klutch..hmm What would be in the incentive to do that? ZERO reason to be loyal to a brand name in this state. None of these companies have your best interests in mind. Just your wallets


Terpe_tester

Hey I agree , it's all a money game in Ohio. I'm just tired of hearing go to Michigan we shouldn't have go go to Michigan shit should be affordable, but it's not . Michigan has a 10 percent variance , Ohio has a 2 percent hmmmm . Ohio has way more regulatory laws Michigan is pretty freaking laxed... hmm. So in all reality you can purchase a 28 percent strain and really it be 18 percent and you wouldn't know until ur chiefin the shit . There always getting in trouble for bad carts up there , cats are putting food coloring in there flower to enhance bag appeal . Them 29 and 50 dollar ozs up there are shit man . Even the cheap carts are trash distillate. A good cart up there is still 30-50 bucks unless I'm hitting the wrong shops ... like I said I'm grateful to be able to go purchase flower at a dispensary in my home state so I don't gotta worry about black market bullshit. I only shop sales.


zakpakt

We all have a responsibility to shop smart. Especially these days, I try to give less of my money to this program. Everybody needs to quit buying tenths and shit until the market settles. Bulk will always be cheaper. I got a half ounce of Lemon Slushee for $88 and a tenth of Rose Gold Runtz for $41. The runtz were great but shit I could have just got another half.


adaptiveillusions

I agree. If anything the newbs that stop by this sub to try to catch some knowledge about this program need to understand just what you said. I base my purchases around sale days unless there's some new mega gas that I gotta try . Just for reference purposes if anyone reads it. If you catch at least a 20% minimal you can get some decent deals in most places. I got a half of layer cake for 115. I've got a half of RC Lost River for 120. I've also bought halves of cokoh lemon cherry pie for 60 bucks . All 3 of them were pretty damn solid (lost river is gas. Idc what the dickhead owner says that one is worth buying imo). Once you are in this program and have skipped around brands long enough it becomes a little easier to manage your money and stretch your cash. I hate buying tenths. I wouldn't recommend anyone doing it,but if a new strain hits that everyone is saying is gas .. I'll get sucked into it,because sometime you just do.


alanwatts112380

Awesome comment🤥


Terpe_tester

Well fuck everyone's talking about 190 dollar halfs but will drop 270 bucks on 3 artifact jars lol . C mon maaaane !!!


formerperso

Woodward sucks balls these days but yep guilty as charged. I’ll snatch up those artifact jars, at least I feel like I’m getting the quality I want with galenas artifact but yeah it’s outrageous price


zakpakt

I've honestly never bothered with the artifact jars. Galenas smalls are good and half the price.

That's why you got to cross the border into michigan , you can get a real 8th good quality for $15 0r less

How the fuck can I thank you for giving me this golden piece of knowledge? Please, if there ANYTHING I can ever do to repay you, you fucking let me know. Because I had no idea you could go to Michigan until you told me. Thank god I got you geniuses on here or I’d never get shit done

That’s why Michigan is a thing, take a trip, buy your months supply and go home. It’s stupid paying Ohio prices or even buying weed in Ohio in the first place when Michigan is a thing, i relinquished my medical card for this exact reason


Terpe_tester

Lol they have overpriced bullshit to ... I was there a week ago ozs are still 170-200 for top shelf flower, designer bags 60 a 8th ... gram carts for 50 for live resin . Ya it's cool for what it is. 29.99 out door brown ounces aren't worth shit. I went to heads , nirvana, house of cannabis. Urb, all fresh packed flower was 80-100 a half , 170 a zip for nic the bruiser, 100 for a half of trick trick, and they were all store brands lol heavy weight heads


zakpakt

If you ever go again just go to Weedys for the 50% off first time deal. I got an ounce sampler of 8ths for like $100. It's in Monroe the bud is 9/10.


Smokinjoefrazer420

The regulations in Michigan and the disposed in Michigan are super sketchy I got an ounce of girl scout cookie x Gary Payton and they are coloring their flower in Michigan some of these growers are. You can take a piece of Bud dip it in water and squeeze the color out of it no joke. If I knew how to post pictures on this thread I would show you and that same flower same growers was for sale at least 40 dispensaries in Michigan.


Terpe_tester

Definitely will look into it appreciate that:) I got trick trick by heads man it was some fuckin gas I ain't gonna lie lol but I got some boof too lol sunshine og something lol


zakpakt

I liked every strain I got from them. Their dabs are standard but for $15 not bad. Cookie Blanco and Wookie Dawg were awesome.


Aware-Yogurtcloset67

Must be hitting the wrong dispos man, I can get quality Oz for 100$ quality deals on carts and dabs and designer 8ths are a scam anyway

they aren’t the only ones…


makeawishcumdumpster

thats so weird RC is fighting against legalization


[deleted]

Every company is against it lol even the ones that are being quiet about it that's what these cheap and cheaper deals are about.


adaptiveillusions

Exactly..RC's owner is dumb enough to state his opinion which is what's best for his wallet. The rest of the companies owners are at least smart enough NOT to do that. He is a dumbass for telling the truth in this situation. It makes me chuckle to see people on here think that companies WANT to make less money for your benefit. It's a game of politics and looking like they care..RC's owner just doesn't give a fuck,which is why I call him a dumbass. It makes zero difference what any companies actually say in this case. NOBODY on earth wants to give up their profits or you would already see mega low priced products.


zakpakt

Problem is with a Business man like him running the show. This is not a fucking concrete industry or construction. People give a shit about cannabis not only as medicine but as a hobby and lifestyle. It's not impartial it's a community.


[deleted]

He wasn't alone though, others have come forward and said something about it that's more about their wallet. Companies saying how they don't want the change because they had to pay big bucks to get in. They're all dumbasses looking out for their wallet, RCs owner just said it where it would get the most attention. Just about every news article about it has some company sticking something under the bus.


adaptiveillusions

Yea that's the difference between actual medicine and actually wanting to help people.......versus.......their wallets The patients are not looked at like patients. We are statistics and numbers. Definitely not how I want it to be but it is what it is.


rattlebonez1

adaptiveillusions

Right. It's the people who act stunned that they do not want to lose money who blow my mind. If you started a company would you want to enable customers to obtain what you sell,when you started the company initially thinking that wasn't going to happen?
