I think it's just the people you know, most people i know have got their medical prescription or get their weed from someone who does. The convenience of having it shipped right to you door plus not having to meet up with someone sketchy vastly out weighs the extra cost.

And I just checked prices from my provider. Everything is between $7.20 and $8.50 a gram except for one blend on sale for $4. Free shipping on any orders over 30 grams.

Is Terry going out of business? Maybe not as you can still find contraband cigarettes and people make illegal alcohol too. But is 95% of the market going to move into the legal space? Probably, unless the government makes laws that make access excessively restrictive. *cough*Ontario*cough*
