How Much Does an Ounce of Cannabis Cost?

With cannabis legalization happening in more places than ever before around the world some people are curious about what the difference in the cost of weed is. How much does an ounce of weed cost in one place compared to another? This is a good question. A lot of this depends on whether or not the weed is being purchased legally or if the purchase is taking place on the slowly dwindling black market.

There have been reports that an ounce of cannabis in Colorado that costs you $140 can sell for as much as $2,000 overseas. The reason for this is the lab testing and packaging of the cannabis. These are two aspects regarding cannabis that is unavailable in many places overseas.
