I just rewatched that documentary on Chicago dope scene and I noticed when dude was cutting up the dope ,he weighed out the total dope before he cut it in a sandwich baggie tied up, and the scales said 7.1 grams and thats how much dope he told the guy asking was there, but the dealer has gotta know that sandwich baggie weighs a gram, so with the bag included dude had 7.1 grams- 1 gram baggie= 6.1 grams of dope, which would throw off his cutting ratio by a pretty good amount, I think he was taking 3.5 grams of dope and adding a gram of dormin to that and mixing it up, which is a 33% cut if it was 3.5 grams ,but it was an even bigger percent of cut since he only had 6.1 grams and added a gram of cut to like 3 grams more or less!!
Thats more than 1/3 cut, and I noticed his foils were very variable in weight..lol..We got foils like those in New Orleans all the time, and they were eyeballed also..In memphis we always weighed out the dope we got on triple beams without a baggie, or included the bag or whatever into the weight and no one ever eyeballed the dope like that, but I'm not hating on dudes operation.
In Memphis when you buy street bags,which come in corner bags usually the are eyeballed,but a 1/4 gram or more is weighed out most of the time in front of you without a baggie,at least my people did normally, of course with dial and deliver dude would bring me a gram or more and weigh it out on my triple beams without a baggie(my triple beams for weighing weed out when I sell some bud sometimes) lol..and dude normally carried an extra bit of dope on him and would always toss a little more on, if it was short, but he pre weighed the grams on his triple beam before coming over so that rarely happened..lol..
Strange how different citys have different dope scenes in small ways like that, but I was dealing with people I knew well and all that, and got them a lotta extra business from out of town people I know that came to visit Memphis from time to time, plus our really good powder costs a bit more than in Chicago as a rule, I got better than most deals price and quality wise, but then again when you know people for a number of years and hook them up with some high grade nugs for a discount ,since they smoked bud and never did dope, they returned the favor by giving me a discount on the good dope...lol..
oh well..time to head to Memphis soon and do some things, or try out St.Louis dope, been able to get a little bit of some fire ass dope from St.Louis ,IMO it is really good Chicago dope since the shit comes in capsules there normally...
