NEW YORK In a city where you can get just about anything delivered to your door _ groceries, dry cleaning, Chinese food _ pot smokers are increasingly ordering takeout marijuana from drug rings that operate with remarkable corporate-style attention to customer satisfaction. An untold number of otherwise law-abiding professionals in New York are having their pot delivered to their homes instead of visiting drug dens or hanging out on street corners. Among the legions of home delivery customers is Chris, a 37-year-old salesman in Manhattan.

At $30/gram, I wonder what kind of tips the couriers make... I'd think that 15% would be too much.
Only tip less than 15% if you don't mind them spitting in your sack next time ;)
It ISN'T illegal??? lol
Does anyone have the telephone number?
You don't tip them anything.
depends on what state you live in isnt it?
Dealers of the future.
Man if you could pizza with that it would sure save time.
No way, the dealer of the future is going to be the Gov't once they realize how much cash they're missing out on. Then it'll be easier to fund the war on drugs.
When he comes to the door and knocks, "Dave's not here!"
Do they have a Maryland branch?
Sounds like a real good way to get your house confiscated like they do cars.
"pizza with that"
Actually, you should try the pizza with weed topping....

Marijuana delivered right to your door???
"No way, the dealer of the future is going to be the Gov't once they realize how much cash they're missing out on. "
I have been hearing for thirty years about how pot is illegal because the government doesn't know how to tax it.
This happens a lot in the drug world. I've seen it across my street!
