And like I said, there'd be no point in making it legal if it was going to be more expensive. I don't know why people think they'd still be able to get it cheaper elsewhere. It's not like brewing your own beer is any cheaper.
If you are only looking at the cost in dollars per gram, it probably won't ever be noticeably cheaper. If that is your expectation, you are likely going to be disappointed.

The other costs, like risking jail time or a fine, are eliminated. Consistency of product will likely increase, which will give you a better value for your money. You won't need to travel to Random Pot Dealer's apartment, and instead can pick some up wherever you guy your booze or smokes. The external costs like this are hard to quantify, and I am likely off on how big of an impact this will make, because I don't smoke pot.
