Or is the idea (for legalization advocates) to have in-store sales as well as people growing out of their homes and selling privately under the table?

Prices would likely go down I believe. The high cost of pot comes from the legal danger of growing/selling, and not necessarily the cost of manufacture. Even with the government's high sin taxes, the cost would probably be lower.
