The Dealer’s Playbook: How to Navigate Your Weed Transaction

^{Filed Under: How To Wheel & Deal Your Dealer}

When it comes to buying weed, whether your dealer is a lifelong friend or some sketchy dude you met in a parking lot, there’s a universal code of conduct that every stoner should follow. These stoner commandments ensure your interactions go smoothly and keep both you and your dealer happy. Here’s the hard-edged guide to dealing with your dealer.

Keep It Short and Sweet

When you’re texting or calling your dealer, remember less is more. Avoid using words like “weed” or “pot” and steer clear of explicit measurements. Weed isn’t legal everywhere, and you never know who might be listening. Keep your messages vague but clear. A simple “You around?” or “Can I stop by?” should suffice.

Leave Your Entourage at Home

Your dealer doesn’t want to entertain your whole crew. Showing up with uninvited strangers is a quick way to get on their bad side. If you absolutely must bring someone, give your dealer a heads-up. It’s about respect and ensuring their comfort and safety.

Don’t Beg for a Front

Asking for a front is a rookie mistake. Your dealer has bills to pay just like everyone else. Promising to pay them back next week doesn’t cut it. If you’re short on cash, wait until you can afford it. Don’t put your dealer in an awkward position.

In and Out, No Loitering

Do what you came to do and get out. Dealers aren’t running a social club. If they want you to stick around and chill, they’ll invite you. Otherwise, keep it quick. Lingering around is a surefire way to wear out your welcome.

No Free Samples, This Isn’t Costco

Don’t ask your dealer for free samples. This isn’t the grocery store. They’re not there to hand out freebies. You’re there to buy, not to mooch. Respect the transaction.

Mind Your Own Business

Never ask your dealer where they got their weed. It’s none of your business, and it’s a question that can make them uncomfortable. You’re buying from them, not conducting an interview.

The Price Is the Price

Haggling over the price is disrespectful. If you don’t like the price, don’t buy it. Dealers set their prices for a reason, and arguing won’t get you a discount. Respect their business.

Offer to Share, Don’t Expect a Handout

Don’t expect your dealer to smoke you out. You just bought a bag; maybe offer to burn one with them as a gesture of goodwill. It’s a nice way to show appreciation and build rapport.

Respect Their Time and Space

Your dealer has a life too. Blowing up their phone or showing up unannounced is a great way to annoy them. Be considerate of their time. If they don’t respond right away, be patient. They’ll get back to you when they can.

Additional Commandments

• Be Ready: Have your payment ready and don’t waste time digging through your pockets or fumbling with your wallet. (Loose change should never used as a form of payment.)
• Keep It Discreet: Avoid drawing attention to yourself or your dealer. Public transactions can attract unwanted attention.
• Stay Safe: Always be mindful of your surroundings and prioritize safety. If something feels off, trust your instincts.

Buying weed doesn’t have to be complicated. Follow these commandments to keep things smooth and drama-free. Your dealer will appreciate it, and you’ll always be welcomed back.
