What Justifies a High price point for these Genetic Seed banks in the States

[Biggchong]

Unless they can guarantee 30% thc or a pound per plant, Why do people pay these crazy prices.

Are the breeders regulated, follow state laws as far as prerequisites. Do they pay taxes?

Are they breeding in there Moms basement? there garage? What gives?

Please post only knowledgeable and logic responses. It's an Inquiry not a beef or a rant.

I imagine some of these guys put in a lot of work to create a decent offering to us, growing and testing through hundreds (or more) of seeds and being patient enough to find something worth breeding.

I don't really question prices, if it's something I want, then I just purchase it.

Greed?

 

[Olive Drab Green]

Unlike other countries, they still live in our country, subject to our federal law. They prefer to sell in bulk, and the prices aren't really all that bad.

Kinda like the dudes asking for some herb at super discount prices. If you don't wanna pay for someone else to do the work than do it yourself. Or go for something like female seeds, if you think those are overpriced you might not be able to afford a proper grow area. Even a box lol.

See my avie? That strain took 6 years to make, tested at 25% so not your 30 ? Every one that has it keeps it, it recently yielded 8 oz's for a grower in a small tent and I was only askin 60 for 15 beans, seems fair to me but perhaps I need to ask more

 

[RM3]

Hell once I make the strain I've been workin on all these years it'll be 1000 a bean and I'm willin to bet that anyone that has grown my avie will buy em

it's simply greed, when a plant makes 10,000 seeds and you ask 10-20$ a seed you are just being greedy.

The other thing ya gotta ask is who gets the $$ ??? if it is a seed bank I'm pretty sure the beans have a mark up on em, be like CD sales where the recording artist gets 6 cents of the 12 dollars the cd cost

Yes you can package it with a mini fission motor and time travel machine

I get it, and I agree, but at 10-20 a seed, what the plant will yield will be easy payback, even without cloning. I don't deal, but I'd imagine it works that way.

Seed banks are super greedy and disgusting, they want you to send them free seeds until you build a reputation then they want to only give you a small % of what they make.

Yeah I agree you can get your money back but honestly the prices are way too high, they should be 10-20$ a pack.

Fair enough. Like I said, no getting around what you're saying is right and honest.

The other thing to remember is it is still illegal

I think that depends where you live, it's legal to sell seeds in Colorado if you follow the laws and sell them at your dispensary, they still ask stupid prices like I bought some rare dankness seeds at river rock and they cost me over 100$ for a single pack. I got seeds at the cup and they cost 130 got directly from the breeder so yea its mostly just greed these ppl want as much as they can get.

you know how big a plant needs to be to make 10,000 seeds?
now if i was to make some seeds. it better equal my cost or more as i would run flower, or making seeds just wont be worth my time.
