A MAN has been charged with drug offences after police found $150,000 worth of cannabis in a car in NSW.

 

Officers carrying out anti-drug patrols stopped a Ford Falcon travelling along the Barrier Highway, about 10km from Cobar, at about 11.20pm (AEST) yesterday.

 

They found two boxes in the back of the car containing what police believe to be 14kg of cannabis, with an estimated street value of $150,000.

 

The officers also discovered money in the vehicle.

 

A 31-year-old Adamstown man was arrested at the scene and taken to Cobar police station for questioning.

 

He was later charged with having goods in his personal custody suspected of being stolen, possession of a prohibited drug, supplying a prohibited drug and supplying cannabis of a more than indictable but less than commercial quantity.

 

Bail was refused and he is due to appear at Bourke Local Court later today.

Maybe in the Cities it would be that expensive ... But really , Who would pay over $5000 for a Pound? ...

And if they did , They'd have to sell It at well more than $300 an Oz to make a profit ...

I hope I didn't fuck up My mathemematics ... But still sounds too much ...

I'd say that dude is lookin at a bit of time inside for that ... Bit silly really , havin all that with stolen property

 

ANywayz , I'm glad I don't pay that much for Smoko ...

6G ?? .. fuk aye ... thats $375 an ounce right there ...

They'd have to sell it at $500 an Oz to make a decent profit (i.e. $2000 on top of the initial $6000) .. fuk that!! ... who pays $500 an ounce anymore??? .. anyone?

Ya wouldn't pay that no matter how decent the Budz were ... would ya? ..

ANd thats not really a very profitable margin for the dealers either ...

 

ANywayz ... I think they (the Pigz) always blow the Weights and Prices outta proportion ... They never seem to take Mates rates into consideration do they
