What are the prices around Los Angeles Like? The person I know gets H T for about 80 per g or 220-250 per 8-ball but always pinched down to about 2.5-3g. Is that a rip or is that normal, AND its such a pain in the ass w/this guy its hard to score. Any words of wisdom?

Im not sure I get you. HE has only known 1 guy since HE'S started, HE has no clue where else to go. Anyways, what about the prices, man?

I think what he meant was that if "HE" is you and "HE" is in LA the "HE" should have no problem getting shit without any middle man.
Maybe you just moved to LA or something but seeing that you do live there it seems you should know what a reasonable price is.
It's always good to diversify. Get as many hooks as you can.
Oh and if "HE" is you then I can tell you the places to go are normally the places you wouldnt want to spend a lot of time in at three in the morning by yourself. Especially if your white but, if you dont have any good connections, then these are the places you will have to go.
Good luck

Well I'm not in LA, but im about a 3 hour drive north, and where I am those prices would be laughable for black tar. I won't say exactly where I am but I'm positive the shit I get goes thru L.A. and then probably Oxnard and then a bit further north to me (if u know California well).
Basically for tar here it is:
*$30 for a half gram
*$60 for a gram
*$120-$160 for a 3-pack (3 grams)
...and so on
Theres also some dope that goes around simply referred to as the "hundred dollar shit." Its basically $100 per gram, $50 per half gram, and anything below or in between is pretty much negotiable. Ive never had this stuff but several friends swear by it and will leap at the chance to get it when its around.
I hope that helped. In a place as big as L.A. there should be infinite opportunities for getting dope, and for sure many chances for better prices, especially if its tar and not powder.

i dnont know i always found it one hell of an exciting time chasing down a bag in a new city , hangin on to the money as long as possible helps or dont give up ;much as first , always leave the possibility of much larger sales out there if things go right ive said it manytimes the ladies of the evening are ur friend
Maybe that should be your "signature," DD... you know, at the bottom of every one of your posts?
(It does sound like good advice, but I cannot personally attest to having ever successfully used that particular method. However, I do recall you've written about how well it works many, many times.)
Oh yes, it does indeed work, and it's allways great conversation. :p
Seriously, "ladies of the evening" and strippers usually know where to get good stuff, and are usually willing to help out for a small taste of the goods.

Damn. I guess Im gettin ripped but I cant handle getting pinched. I guess it seems im new to this but its only been 6 months since I started and before that I was usin V's for a couple years. Man I would be lovin it if it was 160 for a 3 pack, damn, I know where I can turn that around for 360 to someone I know. Im sure I wont get anymore info here but thanks for what is given...

You are definitley getting ripped off, you still havnt said whether its tar or powder though. Since powder is pretty scarse in CA, its usually pretty expensive, but if you are getting tar you should not be payinf anything more than 60 a G.
In my part I cant EASILY get 2 G's for 80 bucks. But where I go is pretty risky and usually never go unless I am going to get 2. I pay 80 bucks for 2 and 100 bucks for 3. The tar is pretty fuckin good too. It took a couple of times to get the good tar though. At first, the shit was weak as hell, but when you get more familiar with the place, you know who to go to and who to steer clear of.
Tar is very very inexpensive in CA, so if you are really paying that much AND getting your bag pinched, someone is definitely fuckin you over pretty hard.
I have noticed lately though that there is a lot more heat over the last couple of weeks than there has ever been, I think they are really trying to crack down in this certain area. Lately it has been a 50/50 chance of whther or not I am going to score.

In L.A. I have seen it as low as $a gram and 20 for 1/2 gram and this is for pretty good quality tar. I guess it depends on where you go and who you get it from. This is in and around the Long Beach area and never have seen anything but Tar. I would imagine that most of the H that comes through Southern Calif. is from Mexico and the quality can vary.
I would imagine if they sense your new to the area or new to this life-style, you may pay higher prices.
If your familiar with the area of Los Angeles, go hang around the needle exchanges and see if you can hook up with someone who can get you a better deal. Just a suggestion. Your bound to find someone there who can lead you to quality tar at fair prices.

Yea well as Shaunclo has shown, even my prices aren't the best. I can't get 3 packs for $100 here anymore, they are at least $120 but that is rare.
I know it can be frustrating in the beginning, but just actively pursue better hook-ups and look for opportunities when they arise. I used to have to go through some friends even though I had met the higher up dealer. After a while he finally became comfortable with me (and unlike me friends who always fronted dope/had to pawn shit, I always had the money). It was amazing to see how big a gram really looked in comparison to what I'd get when it passed through a few more hands.
Any other questions, let me know.

LOL, that is so fuckin funny!!!
I hear exactly what your saying, when I 1st started going to cop I would always be like, WOW, I got a big G, but then when I found the right guy, I was finally seeing how good a real G was.
Cube has made some great points, some of the most experienced of users have to wait a long time to find a descent hook, some lose theirs and have to go a long time without one till they can find another again. I know a couple of people who would die just for a connect in the 1st place. Always be happy with what you have, cause when you dont have one anymore you would glady be shorted than not be able to get anything at all.

$6 for .1g or 1.3g for $60
$7 for .1g after 6 pm.

Wow Mort, 1.3 for 60 is a great price.
Ive never heard anyone selling .1's before, are you sure thats what you meant?? Im sure it is, but it sounds sounds funny. I mean why would you go outta your way to even take the chance of getting busted for hooking up for a measly .1?? I guess if you only have 6 bucks it makes sense, but HOT DAMN, can anyone get off on .1 of tar??

A few years ago when I was living in LA had a really good connect and had been a frequent and regular customer, was getting $40 for a g $300 for 9 g's damn wish i hadn't lost touch with that dude but like I said this was a few years ago.

Yes, I meant .1g (I wish I didn't); heh, .1g can keep you from getting sick, but that's about it.
1.3g is the volume of a pack (.1g x 13).

.1gx10=1.g=1 average hit maybe?
I'm not sure cause here you can get 6$ bags x 10 = a bundle,
which equals a decent hit. now you can settle fer the 6$ bags
or the 8$ bags
or better yet go for the gusto and grab the 10$ bags which are worth every cent.in other words I'd rather pay more money for less product which is better then the more product for less money stuff. comprende??????
good then explain what i just said to me please??:p

never have seen anything but Tar. I would imagine that most of the H that comes through Southern Calif. is from Mexico and the quality can vary.
I saw an article somewheres that mexicans go as far as Grover beach area and make it. seems counterintuitive to go north then south again. hmmm?

Are you talking about prices on skid row? I feel like that is a tourist attraction.
Some actor was arrested there not too long ago. He bought some h from a narc.

pffffft! Powder is $200 a gram here in VA. Most of the time it is not even that great. $200 is middle man prices. You might be able to score it for $150 if you know someone.

Well, that depends on how you look at it. You are obviously paying the middle-man tax. The real question is, is it worth it? Because your middle man is probably thinking its not worth it to him to cop shit for you for free...
Just offer him a gram to meet his connect. That's what I usually do after some amount of time with a middle man. He should know eventually you'll find someone, and no longer meet his services. He might as well get his.
Oh and by the way, he may be trumping up how hard it is to find someone just for the reason of discouraging you. I'd not trust a middle-man that's taxing me with connection info... I'd be more suspicious of misinformation... but that's just me.
