A 100% retail markup isn't out of line for an in-demand product.

It is when you can pay a third of the price on Craigslist.

Cheap weed is easily available and these new businesses are trying to attract new customers from a base that is by and large happy with their current source. You can't do that with an inferior product at 3 times the price. Again, it's not overhead it's the 80% tax. The state got greedy (no surprise). If they don't drastically reduce the tax, these stores WILL fail.

Not if they focus on products your local dealer doesn't sell. This is second hand info but a lot of Colorado dispensaries are selling more "products" than actual bud.
